..Ruth's POV..

As were heading back, it's around 7 pm already. We've been spending 8 hours together. And it's shocking he didn't even seem tired or annoyed by me.

"Thank you for today, it was fun" I say he looks at me and nods. As we continue driving in silence, it was a comfortable type of silence. As I open the door to get out of his car he says "who's car is that?" I look in front and see it's a grey car. There's 2 people in there.

"I don't know.." I say starting to get anxious.

He gets out and comes to my side, 2 people step out. And who I see makes my mind start spinning. "Fuck..." I say "what's wrong?" Blake asks. "BABY!" My mom shouts. She runs up to me and hugs me. I don't hug her back, she pulls away. "Blake can you leave please" I say.

He nods, "I'll see you tomorrow" he says and walks into his car.

"What are you guys doing here?" I ask them were now inside the living room. "We wanted to see how our daughter is doing" my dad says.

"I'm not your daughter" I say "yes you are" my mom says "I stopped being you're daughter the day you left. The day you abandon me and left me all alone!" I shout. My dad looked angry and my mom seemed upset.

"Look it was a mistake, we're sorry we left but we want to be with you we want re-build the f-" but I cut them off. "No I'm doing fine myself, I didn't need you guys back then, I don't need you now!" I say.

"Stop being a selfish bitch, see that's why we left you. Your always stupid and selfish.!" My dad shouts "I'm Not being selfish, I'm just saying I don't need you guys anymore" I say.

"Ever since you're sister died you've become a bad person" my mom says. "Don't you dare talk about her, you don't know what I've been through so leave me the fuck alone" I say getting angry.

"Don't raise your voice at your mother!" my father says grabbing my wrist. "Let go!" I say "this is why we left you, your a bitch, who only care about herself. Amelia was way better than you thats why no one liked you. That's why Amelia was better than you! And your the fucking reason she killed herself" He shouts.

I tried so hard to not let his words cut deep, but they did. "Your an asshole!" I shout pulling my wrist out of his grip and walking out the door. As I walk outside I bump into a chest. I look up and see Blake.

Fuck.

Shit Ruth forgot her bag, I stop the car and get
Out grabbing her bag. I was about to knock when I hear shouting. I was about to go back into my car when I heard.

"Stop being a selfish bitch, see that's why we left you. Your always stupid and selfish.!" I hear a man shout "I'm Not being selfish, I'm just saying I don't need you guys anymore" Ruth says.

"Ever since you're sister died you've become a bad person" a women says. Ruth had a sister?"Don't you dare talk about her, you don't know what I've been through so leave me the fuck alone" Ruth says.

"Don't raise your voice at your mother!" I hear the man say. "Let go!" Ruth say. Fuck is he hurting her I felt my body heat up with anger. "this is why we left you, your a bitch, who only cares about herself. Amelia was way better than you thats why no one liked you. That's why Amelia was better than you! And your the fucking reason she killed herself" The man shouts.

I felt bad for Ruth, how can someone say this to their own child. That's fucking bullshit. "Your an asshole!" Is all I hear before the door opens.

As I stand there, Ruth bumps into my chest. Shit. She looks up and her whole body freezes. "Gray.." I say "what are you doing here?" She asks. "You forgot ur bag" I say giving it to her. "How much did you hear?" She asks panic written all over her face.

"..not much" I say "liar..you heard everything" she says. "Just go okay Carter. Forget everything you heard. Go home" she says and walks past me.

"Where are you going?" I ask her "it doesn't matter just leave" she says and walks away.

..Ruth's POV..

As I sit on he park bench, it's alone and there's no one here. Tears streaming down my cheeks. I tired so hard not to cry, so hard to not let my fathers words cut deeper but they did.

"Stop being a selfish bitch, see that's why we left you. Your always stupid and selfish.!" My dad shouts "I'm Not being selfish, I'm just saying I don't need you guys anymore" I say.

My fathers words hitting me like a big wave, drowning me making it hard to breath. I felt empty, hurt, and angry.

"Ever since you're sister died you've become a bad person"

"...That's why Amelia was better than you! And your the fucking reason she killed herself"

"Fuck It" I say.

⚠️TW: SELF-HARM⚠️

As I look through my bag, getting the small razor blade that was hidden in a book. As I lift up my sleeve. I felt more tears forming and I give up. Just one cut that's all.

One turns into 2
3..
5..
7..
9..

Before I can do more, someone grabs my wrist. "Let go!" I say the tears making my vision blurry. "Give me that please.." it was Blake. Fuck why is he here.

"Stop let me go.." I say crying. "Please Gray give it to me" he begged. In his voice there was concern and sadness.

I let go and break down, "I'm sorry..I'm so sorry..fuck I'm s-" but he cuts me off by sitting next to me and pulling me into a tight hug.

I hug back, letting it all out. "It's okay I got you Im right here.." he says while rubbing my back. "It's all my fault." I say crying "I'm a fucking mess.." I say.

"No your not Gray, your not a mess and this is not your fault.." he says pulling me closer. " I hug him back harder. After a while of being in his arms I pull back. I look at his shirt and it's covered with blood.

"Shit I'm so sorry I got blood on your shirt I'm s-" but he cuts my off. "Hey Gray don't worry it's fine" he says. I look at him and he looks at me. This warm safe feeling goes through my body. "Thank you.." I say "your welcome.." he says.

"Okay let's clean this up" he says getting my bag and taking out the first aid kit. As he cleans the cuts I just sit there looking at how careful he's being. About 5 minutes later he's done.

"There you go" he says, his voice was lazed with concern. "Thank you Carter" I say. He nods, "alright I'm gonna get going" you say standing up. He looked at you worried "I'm fine" you say with a small smile. "I'm no gonna risk it, I don't want you to get hurt. So come with me please" he says.

"Where?" You ask him, "come stay with me, I'll drive you back home tomorrow" he says. You thought about it, "I don't want you to worry, and I don't wanna bother y-" but he cuts you off.

"Gray, your not a bother and no matter what I'm always gonna worry about you" he says. "Okay.." you say "but where are we staying?" You ask him. "Well stay with my aunt, I live there you can sleep in my room" he says.

"Where are you gonna stay?" You ask him "I'll stay in the living room" he says. "No, you stay in-" he cuts me off. "For now let's go well sort this out when we're there" he says.
