i wake up to niki gently tapping my shoulder.

"hey sage, why is there so much blood in the bathroom?"

my heart drops, SHIT I FORGOT TO STUFF THR TOILET PAPER AT THE BOTTOM OF THE TRASH CAN

"i had a nosebleed. i was supposed to get it cauterized when i was younger but didn't so know i get nose bleeds randomly." i say nonchalantly knowing full well i could've died right then and there.

"oh ok, just wondering. well i'm going out to meet an old friend so i'll be back."

she leaves and i'm on edge.

i feel my vison start to get blurry, i'm scared nikis going to leave like the others. my family, my old friends, my extended family.

i'm shaking and i need someone.

i call the first person that's comes to mind. Wilbur.

"hello sage! what's up?"

"help." i whisper.

"what? are you ok?! are you at gunpoint?!"

"no...can't breathe." i shake

"Holy shit you're having a panic attack." I hear very muffled keys. "ok take deep breaths i'll be there for you. I'm right here."

I feel the tears spilling down my cheeks.

"breathe ok, you're alright." wilbur says, comfortingly.

a few minutes later i hear a knock on the front door.

i shakily get up and open the door.

i fall into his arms.

"hey, im here now, it's ok."

i curl into his chest and i feel way better. i feel myself slowly drift off into peaceful sleep.

Wilbur's Pov:

i feel sages weight on me, it's not much and i start to get a bit worried.

their breathing slows into a steady rhythm.

I lift them into their bed.

I'm about to walk out when I hear them silently say. "Can you stay with me?"

I smile and lay down and they lay their head on my chest, I wrap my arms around them and I fall asleep.

I woke up 2 hours later. and sage is still asleep.

i see their tear stained cheeks and pale face.

i tap them awake cause they seem off. Something's off. i see a small patch of blood on the bed.

"hey sage."

"hmmm?" they mumble in response, still tired from their panic attack.

"why is there blood on the bed."

their eyes widen and i feel her heartbeat quicken a bit.

"umm i had a nose bleed, why?"

"you seem really pale. and weak."

"i'm ok, i swear."

i wasn't going to push it anymore then they wanted to. I stroked their arm and they wince. ohhhh shit this is NEVER A GOOD SIGN

"sage why did you wince?"

"when?" they asked, i could tell the question was fake.

"when i stroked your arm, are you ok?"

"i'm fine! swear." they smile, a sad smile. like their crying out for help but everyone ignores them

"No you're not, I'm sorry but I know for a fact you're not fine."

they sit up and put their arms out in front of them.

Sages Pov:

he takes my arm and pulls up the sleeve revealing lots of cuts all over.

he looks in shock and sad and empathetic at the same time.

"sage..." he begins but i cut him off.

"i know i'm a freak, make fun of me, leak my cuts, insult me-" before i can finish wilbur hugs me.

i cried on his shoulder

"I won't ever let anyone make fun of you." he hugs me tighter. "You need to stop cutting, please. where is your blade?"

I took it out of my pocket and he shoved it in. his pocket. "Please stop cutting."

he brings me to the bathroom and cleans my cuts.

i wince every time the alcohol comes in contact with my scars.
he bandages them and i stand up and my knees are really shaky from not eating and the loss of blood.

he picks me up and lays me down on my bed.

"i'm going back home. i told niki that's your not feeling well and she's going to be home in an hour." he plays with my hair a bit. "tommy asked me to ask you if you wanted to film a video tomorrow, just shoot me a text with your answer."

he tucks me in and gently closes the door. i feel my eyes slowly drift close and i fall asleep.
