(feel free to listen to this audio when the tw pops up)

arias pov:
okay to catch you up:
me and nick kissed.
then harry came and took him away.
nick never came back.
my dad picked me up and now i'm home. im a idiot. what was i thinking? nick doesn't actually like me, i probably made him feel forced to tell me. now i have tears streaming down my face, my mascara all smudged and leaving black lines down my face. i changed out of my dress into joggers and a oversized t- shirt and put my hair in a bun. i run into the bathroom and lock the door.
(TW: sh)
still crying, i go into the cupboard under the sink and get my little "sanitary" product box and take out my blade. i take my joggers off and swipe the blade onto my thigh, creating a cut, not deep enough. i swipe again, digging the tip of my blade into my thigh, as i saw the blood dripping out, i done it once more, going deep. still crying, i wipe my face with micella water and a cotton pad, taking the makeup off. my eyes are all red and puffy. crying louder and louder i bang my head on the glass mirror, causing it to crack. "shit." i thought to myself before i heard banging on the door.
"ari? ari are you okay?" i hear tori shout
"ari?????" charlie cries
"aria!" oliver shouts
the banging gets louder and louder until i pass out.

i woke up the next day in my bed and with tao, elle, charlie, tori and isaac in my room. elle is my best friend and tao and isaac are close to me too.
"is she going to be okay?" i hear elle "has this happened before?"
"elle. she sill be fine. this has happened before but not this bad" tori answers.
"i hope she's alright" charlie says stoking my hair
"i bet it's that nick nelson" tao says "charlie, you said that she's been hanging out with him right?"
"yeah but i don't think it's because of him. tori, you remember last year?" charlie asks worried
"mhm." tori replies
"what if that happened again? mom and dad always pressure her. she's going through alot" charlie says
i wake up.
"guys, please, i'm fine" i say, rubbing my eyes.
"ARI!!!" elle shouts, she comes over and hugs me.
"hi." i reply. my voice breaking as i remember what i have done. i start to cry.
"e-elle. can i talk to you alone?" i ask
"of course." she replies, her voice soft.
everyone leaves the room and i lock my door.
"i did it again elle. i relapsed." i cry into her shoulder.
"oh ari, it's okay." she says, stroking my back.
"it's not. i did it worse this time." i tell her. i told her everything that happened and even showed her. after an hour everyone leaves and i just stay in my room. i hear a knock on the door
"aria?" it's oliver.
"hey oliver, what's up?" i say, motioning him to come sit on my bed.
"tori asked if you want some pizza?" he smiles. i feel my stomach grumble.
"no thanks, i'm not hungry" i smile
"okay" he gets up and leaves my room, shutting the door behind him.
before i know it, my eyes are closed and i'm sleeping.

i woke up at 7:00am and got dressed. i decided to wear leggings today because of my leg, you know, the self harm marks..
i went downstairs and say charlie not eating again.
(tw: ed)
"charlie." i say, my voice cold. i looked horrible.
"oh my god. ari, you look horrible. you don't look well." he sounds concerned.
"i'm fine. when was the last time you ate?" i ask
"last night. i had pizza with tori and oliver. but how about you?" he raises his eyebrows
"saturday afternoon" i mumble
"oh ari." he stands up.
"its fine. i'm alright" i smile
after a bit of talking we leave for school. i'll be honest, i don't want to be here, i don't have the energy. when i got off the bus, i saw nick and he waved at me. i looked at him coldly and walked off with charlie. i saw elle and she asked if i was okay. i said i was fine and just put my head down to walk to form.

it's break time and i was going to go to nick and apologise for ignoring him and being "strange" or "grumpy" or even a "bitch" but i saw him with imogen so i just put in my airpods and listened to 'save your tears'. it's a song i relate too right now.

i'm at home now and on facetime to elle.

"how are you?" she asks
"drained. physically and mentally" i tear up but hold them back.
"it's okay. i'm always here for you" she says.
"i know." i smile.

after a bit longer i decide to post on instagram. maybe it will make me feel a bit better?!

after a bit i scroll on twitter and see a tweet:

"hes a fucking liar!" i shout
"what? ari? whats wrong?" he asks
i show him the twitter post.
"oh ari i'm so sorry" he says and he hugs me.
"why are boys so..." i don't finish my sentence. i physically can't.
"shhhhhh it's okay ari. he doesn't deserve you. do you want to sleep in my room tonight?" he asks.
i just nod. then i get a text.
