A/N: TW: mentions of Self Harm. Scars. Alcoholism. Cigarettes.

POV: Gaege
"Hey Geage!" Calls josh. "What the FUCK is he doing here?!" I call to him pointing a rather furious finger at the guy. I'm fucking furious the guy josh wants to bring is the stupid cunt I just got rid of 12 fucking hours ago. "Calm down Juice." Says Mully. "Shut up mully." I say taken back by my own words. "Josh do you not realise all the things he's done to me?" I scold him rather harshly.

I take a chug of the vodka. I LOVE how it burns my throat. Bare in mind I've not even today so the alcohol was really getting to me.

"Fucking hell how much of that have you had?" Ask narrator. "Fuck this. You boys enjoy your night cos I don't wanna be seen, with that pathetic man ever. I'm going home." I slightly slur my words doing so. "GAEGE!" Josh yells as I walk off. I hear Eddie talk to them then I hear footsteps and a hand on my shoulder. I turn to face him. "Fuck off!" I yell at him. "Don't fucking touch me." I finish. "Gaege, please let's all be civil about this I don't mean any harm I just come here for some fun you know?"

"You have fun Eddie. Goodnight." I turn and walk off again. He grabs my wrist. I flinch and inhale sharply. He holds it as I turn to face him once again. I look into his eyes and he looks into mine. We stare for at least three seconds but when I was looking at him it felt like hours.

Eddie takes his other hand still with one firmly gripping my wrist he uses his free hand to move the top up. He holds my wrist in a firm grip still as he rolls up my sleeve a few inches it reveals my cuts. I don't care I have more vodka. He's taken back by this. To be quite frank so are the other boys as they're staring still from the bench. I see their looks on their faces. I look back to Eddie, I didn't care that the boys knew. But when I look at Eddie.

Eddie's different. I'm pretty sure in that situation he was thinking make fun of him? Or be a good human. For once he picked the correct option. He didn't make fun of me or anything.

"Happy now?" I ask him sarcastically. Pulling away my arm and rolling back down my sleeve. "Gaege..." I look at him blankly. "These- these look new?" He says. "Okay? What does that matter to you?" Eddie says nothing. Shook by my cold response. "Exactly Eddie it doesn't matter to you because the only thing that matters to Eddie. Is Eddie himself. I'm off enjoy your night." I slur and wander off into the woods.

I swear to god if that mother fucker goes to tell the boys about my harmful ways I will be fuming. But hey. It doesn't matter if I'm not around for long though. Does it? It'll be fine. I walk off. As I'm walking. I seem to find on a main road. You remember that cliff I was talking about. It was a bridge connection once side of the cliff to the other. I decide to have a stroll over that bridge. I peer over the side. You'd fall forever if you went off the edge of there. I realise as I'm staring at the ground I'm unconsciously picking at my scabs on my arm. Oh well. I wonder how deep that water is tho.

POV: Eddie

And off he goes. Gaege, a very drunk Gaege walks off into the woods at sundown. I turn back at the others. "What the fuck happened? What's he done to himself?" A rather concerning tone comes from josh. "He just..." Mully interrupts me. "Is he okay?" "Yeah he's just...urm." I'm stalling fuck. "Eddie if you know something. Fucking tell us." Says Mully.

"Urm...well Gaege is having a bit of a rough patch at the minute he's alright but just struggling a bit?" I explain in the most humane
way possible. "What so he's cutting himself?" Josh asks. I fumble on my words again. "Well- yeah it's a way of coping or something."

I open my phone. And check Snapchat I click on geage and see he's heading to the main bridge? My heart begins to race. "Fuck." I exclaim. "That was my mama she's pissed I snuck out. I'm so sorry I've got to go." "I though she knew you were going out?" Asks Josh. "Yeah not exactly I'll explain later. But I got to go sorry boys." I dart off into the woods keeping an eye on Gaege's location. I reach the main road and head towards him.

I see him. He's bent over looking down at the water below. "Gaege! Dude what the fuck are you doing? Your gonna get hurt." I tell him. "Chill out edddiiee. I'm not gonna jump." He speaks to me in a teasing like voice still slurring his words. "Gaege can I hold the bottle real quick?" I gesture to the alcohol he's clasping in his hand. "Nope. Alll mineee." He says drinking some more.

I move towards him slightly. We're practically touching. "Come with me Gaege please." I put a hand on his back and one on his shoulder. He says nothing but let's me support him slightly as we walk. I take him to mine. I quickly explain to mi madre. Then we head to my room. Hiding the alcohol best we could obviously.

We get up to my room Gaege didn't speak to my mother as she only really knows Spanish but it's understandable and plus he's drunk so it wouldn't of ended well. "Come on I'll get you some PJs Gaege" "No no it's okay I'll sleep in clothes." "No your having PJs. Here." I hand him a t-shirt and long bottoms. "Eddie." I look at him. "Yeah what's wrong?" "Urm do you have long sleeve? It's just that my arms get really cold and..." "Gaege. You'll be fine. I promise. Mi familia won't disturb us and if you need to go downstairs for any reason you can pop a jacket on. You can get changed here or the on-suit whichever you prefer." He's defeated by my long ass speech and heads into the bathroom and shuts the door.

I too get changed into PJs. I usually just wear boxers to bed but cos Gaege is here I decide on a dark blue checkered bottoms and dark blue top. A few mins later Gaege comes out with his PJs. He was wearing a purple checkered bottoms and purple tee shirt.

Instantly I notice the cuts on his arms. The scars, The fresh ones, The just stopped bleeding ones.

"Eddie." Gaege says. I look back at him. "I know they're ugly...and very in your face and...I'm sorry." He says. "Sorry? For what?" I ask him. He was right about his arm though. It's very in your face. Not an inch of skin without a scar, scab or cut on it. Gaege shrugs. "I don't know I'm just sorry." He says. "Family guy?" I ask. He nods. "Gaege you gonna need a bucket?" I ask him not wanting to clean up spew any time today or tomorrow ever in fact.
"Nah. I'll be fine."

I sit on the bed and pat next to me.
