You were laying across Kyle's lap with your head in Johnnie's lap and your legs dangling off the end of the couch.

Your eyes were tightly closed and tears threatened to spill out as you listened to Jordan expose your secrets.

"Okay so like I was saying...last year I found out that (y/n) self harms....I don't really know how long though....ummm (y/n)?...."

You kept your eyes closed as you answered your cousin.
"Since I was eleven years old. I stopped for awhile when I was thirteen but I relapsed."

Johnnie's hands stroke your hair soothingly and Kyle's hands find yours and hold them tight.

"And today.....I found out that...that she also struggles with an eating disorder...." Jordan adds.

You bury your face in Johnnie's lap not wanting to see anyone's reaction but you can still feel and hear them.
Kyle brings your hands to his mouth, kisses them and holds them to his lips.
Bryan takes a sharp breath inward and does not breath out for a while.

Johnnies reaction though, cuts you to your core. You open your eyes to see his full of overflowing tears and staring down at you.

"Why?" He murmurs stroking your face. "And why didn't you tell me?"
