Chapter 9

⚠️SELF HARM⚠️

Clay gets up from his bed, and goes to his bathroom (that is connected to his bedroom btw lol)

He can hear Wilbur telling George to breathe as he closes the bathroom door. Clay digs in his drawer when he finds his blade. He sits down against the shower door, pulls down his sweat pants to his knees and rolls up his boxers. All of his past cuts remind him of all his old cuts and all his pain.

He drags the blade along his thigh leaving a deep cut about and inch long. He winced at the pain. Dream moves the razor to make another cut. This time he dragged it farther down his skin. He kept going. He didn't stop. The cut he made was 7 fucking inches long. After realizing how noticeable it was, he dropped the blade.

Someone knocked on the bathroom door. "Clay? It's Will. Can I come in?..." Wilbur says. "No! I'm using the bathroom but I'll be right out!" Dream rushes to his feet, pulling his sweat pants up. He takes the blade and then hides it in the drawer.

Dream opens the door to see Wilbur alone. "How are you doing?" Will take his arm and brings him to Clay's bed. They both sit down on the side. Clay shrugs. "Where's George?" Clay asks with a straight expression. "I got him to go to my bedroom. He's asleep. Are you sure your okay?" Clay's thighs stung like hell. He didn't get a chance to clean them yet.

"Mhm." He said. Dream watched as Wilbur's eyes widened. The blood from his cuts leaked through his grey sweatpants. "What's that?" Wilbur asked as calmly as possible. "I-" Dream didn't have an excuse. "Patches scratched me." He said.

Wilbur stood up, taking Clay with him. He then grabbed the rim of Dream's sweat pants and yanked them too his knees. The blood dripped down Clay's thigh. "Clay..." Wilbur looked so disappointed. "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. About everything." Clay awkwardly pulls his pants back up and sits down on the bed.

"No no no. Don't be sorry. Do you want to tell me what's going on?" Wilbur set a hand on his shoulder.

Tears poured. Dream grabbed Wilbur and pulled him into a really tight hug. Will let Clay sob. "It's okay.." Wilbur traced circles onto his back as he kept crying on his shoulder.

"It started with the first time I got 'canceled.' Someone started a rumor that I groomed a 14 year old girl. It wasn't true of course, and it didn't get it me until someone started with death threats. They said I should kill myself, that my fame was bought, and a lot of other stuff." Clay pulled out of the hug.

After almost a 15 minutes talk of Clay venting all his feelings and Wilbur listing carefully. "And then George. I love him. I really do. I thought I did something to make him cheat on me."  "He didn't cheat on you, Clay." Will said. He explained the whole situation with George's ex and the photos.

Clay sat in silence. He's been such a dick. He didn't let George talk. He fucking kicked him out. Dream hugged Wilbur again, before running to Will's room to see George sat up in bed sobbing.

"George I'm so fucking sorry. I didn't let you talk. Will told me all about it. I should have listen. Please George I really am sorry please. I love you." Clay sat by George as he rambled on.

"Please George you have to believe me I love you with all my heart I should have listened and I'm a fucking idiot I love yo-" George cut him off by pulling him into a really tight hug as both of them sobbed into each other's shoulders.

"I love you too." George whispered into Dream's ears. "I swear to GOD. I'll find that Adam dick head and I'll smash his head in. I'll kill him. I will beat his ass until he can't breathe." Clay shouts. "Sh. It's okay. The only important thing is that I'm here with you."  George said as his cry's hiccuped.

"Now do you want to tell me why your bleeding?" George pulled off the hug and put both hands on George's shoulders. "I'm really tired. Can we please just go to sleep?" George nodded as they both went back to Clay's room so Wilbur could also go to sleep.

The boys fell asleep laying together. Maybe not everything has been sat out yet, but definitely in the morning.
