Love Me To Death

Chapter 4

Niall's P.O.V.

I woke up sometime later, seeing blood everywhere. Then I heard a noise. I looked out the window. MY MA WAS HOME! I quickly washed the knife and ran into the bathroom.

She can't see me like this. It will kill her. I thought. I took off my clothes and jumped into the showerstand. Hopefully, this will wash off some of the blood. After rinsing, I walked out and looked in the mirror. There were cuts everywhere.

I got into clean clothes. I was on the couch, watching some television when my ma screamed, "NIALL!"

I got up and ran to her, "Yes, ma?"

"Niall. Niall! W-why is th-there blood on t-the fl-fl-floor?"

Oh shit.

She was sitting on the floor. My hand over her mouth and she was shaking, alnost crying. I had to come up with a lie. "Oh that was me, ma."

"W-why? W-w-what happened?"

"I tripped and got some cuts."

She let out a sigh of relief, sort of. She said and hugged me, "Are you okay?"

"Yeah, ma. I'm fine."

"Ok... Go back to watching tele. I'll clean this up and make some food for both of us."

I grimaced and walked back over to the couch. Phew!
