ONLY YOURS - CHRIS STURNIOLO

12: worried about her

I walked back into the sturniolo household after my day out shopping.

I walked in being greeted by nick who was sitting in the kitchen, on his laptop probably editing.

I said hi to him, but my head got turned by chris walking into the room.

"Hey" i said.

"Hey n-" he got cut off by someone running over to him any kissing his cheek.

Who the hell??

"Chriss can we pleasee make browniess?" The girl pleaded, but got cut off when she noticed me.

"Hey, you must be nae.
Im lily, chris' girlfriend. " she said.

Oh no, i cant believe this.

I plastered a smile on my face, trying so hard not to be a dick.

"Hey, its so nice to meet you!
God, you are so pretty.
Chris hasnt shut up about you all the time." I smiled, then looked at chris.

"Well, yall have fun.
Im going upstairs, im kinda tired.
Goodnigth!" I smiled, then dropped it when i finally got to the stairs when no one can see my face.

I ran into my room, dropping all my stuff and flopping on my bed.

How could i be so stupid?

I should have known this was happening.

What was i even thinking??

CHRIS'S POV

"Soo can we make the brownies?" Lily smiled at me, her hands around me waist.

"Sure" i gave her a smile.

She started making the brownie batter, me always glancing up to the stairs once in a while to see if nae is coming back.

She seemed so weird.

She said that i always talked about lily, which i know i dont.

So what is she trying to cover?

"Hey um.. im gonna get something from my room i'ii be back" i said, and walked up the stairs.

I knocked on nae's door, nervously.

NAE'S POV

i layed on my bed placing bandages on my wrist, when someone knocked on my door.

I quickly put away the unused bandages and yelled,
"Come in"

Chris walked in.

"Hey, is everything okay?
Why arent you w lily?" I asked him, as he sat down next to me on my bed.

"Are you okay?" He asked me

"Why wouldn't i be?
Im totally fine." I said, smiling.

"I dont know..
your just-" he said, but cut off his sentence when he looked down.

"What?" I asked him, trying to follow his eyes.

"Are those bandages?
Did you hurt yourself, what happened?" He asked, worried.

"Oh.. no its fine..' i said, and quickly put away my arm, hiding it w my hoodie sleeve.

"Nae?" He asked me, looking straigth in my eyes.

"Yeah?"

"You remember the first day we hung out?"

"Yeah, at the mall, why?"

"You didnt eat breakfast that day.
And the next day, and you didnt come down for dinner every single day. Were together almost everyday and you never eat.
What is going on?"
