love you until the very end. - OMORI SUNTAN

chapter seven

-"h-hey ! wait !" he quickly stood up from the swing and ran after Aubrey.

                                       **
Kel and Aubrey arrived to Sunny's house, and the pink haired girl knocked loudly on the door.

...

..

.

there was no answer. this time, Kel knocked.
-"Sunshine !? that's me Kel ! i'm with Aubrey !" yelled Kel to Sunny. Aubrey chuckled and tried to not end up laughing.
-"Sunshine ? what type of surname is that ?"
the taller boy's cheeks went red but he quickly gained his mind back. there was still no answer to the door. Aubrey tried to open the door but it was locked, and Kel sighed, he was scared that something bad could've happened.
-"i'm sorry Sunny but since you're not responding and you're capable to have done ANYTHING to hurt yourself." Aubrey sighed, in an haughty tone. she took out a hair pin and tried to open the door. to Kel's surprise, it worked successfully.

the two teens made their way in Sunny's house, going toward his room. Kel gently knocked on the door, and put his ear against the door to hear any potential noises.
-"Sun ? it's me Kel... with Aubrey, can we come in ?" Kel asked, worried. there was no answer, so the tan boy opened the door.

Sunny was laying on his bed, seeming to be sleeping. they both walked toward the sleeping teenager, and Kel slight shook him, to make him wake up.
-"Sunshine ?" Kel said, worried.
-"Sun ?.." he said again, before a long silence came.
-"Sunny !? wake up !" shouted Kel. Sunny moved to his side to be in a more comfortable position. that was a relief for the two other teens, who were worried.
-"hey, i thought he was dead or something." Aubrey said with a calm voice, like she didn't cared. Kel sat next to the sleeping Sunny, looking at him sleep. his cheeks became red and felt a strange feeling. was he falling in love with his best friend ? ain't no way ! Aubrey was wandering around Sunny's room, until her eyes locked on something...
something sharp, shiny, pointed slightly out of the blanket, behind Sunny. she took it out slowly, Kel looking at her, confused.
-"why the hell does he has a knife full of blood in his bed !?" loudly whispered Aubrey.
-"that confirms my doubts." Kel said sadly. Aubrey slowly took one of Sunny's arms, careful to not wake him up, and pulled his sleeve...
his arm was full of bleeding wounds. Aubrey quickly pulled his sleeve back down, and she looked at Kel, surprised of what she just saw. she never thought it would be this bad. Kel sighed, and tried to wake Sunny up.

Sunny slowly opened his eyes, to see Kel, and Aubrey in the back. he looked at his friends, confused.
-"Kel...? what are you doing here...?" Sunny said with a sleepy voice.
-"to have a serious conversation." Kel said firmly. Sunny didn't like that tone, and he noticed Aubrey with his shiny knife. he felt cold sweat on his back, he didn't wanted to have that talk, yet he had to.
-"we saw your left arm, and Aubrey noticed your knife that was laying behind you." Kel started to explain firmly. "Aubrey and I are very worried about you... could you explain ?"
Sunny stayed silent, not wanting to speak a word. he looked at Kel, then Aubrey, before looking at his legs who were covered with the blanket.
-"Yo Sunny, we're talking to ya !" exclaimed Aubrey, also firmly, but Sunny still said nothing. Kel said with a more gentle tone to reassure Sunny.
-"hey bud, it's okay... we won't judge you, we want to know why, okay ? or at least, show us your arms, or just tell us where you did it."
-"that is none of your business." he said with his monotone voice.
-"it is our business Sunny ! you're self harming, suffering all alone and you don't want to tell us what's wrong, we're worried sick !" Aubrey retorted. Sunny sighed. he remembered that indeed, after cutting himself, he fell asleep, so he didn't disinfected the wounds, and he didn't wrapped them. his sleeves were now stained in blood, and it was useless for him to hide it. the black haired boy reluctantly pulled his left sleeve up, and his right right after.
-"there... hum.. i also do on my thighs, on my shoulders and hips... small ones on the stomach too." he reluctantly admitted.
-"where's your medic kit ? can you removed your shirt please ?" Kel said, and Sunny nodded, doing as he asked.
-"third drawer of my desk..." he answered, and Aubrey went to take it. she took a bottle of disinfectant out, and started to clean every of Sunny's scars.
-"tsk, i feel like i'm taking care of a child. why did you do that ?" Aubrey asked. Sunny took a moment to answer, and Kel was carefully watching every scars.
-"there's surely like a hundred scars or something." Kel sadly thought.
-"i don't want to say." Sunny answered to Aubrey. she sighed as she was almost finished with disinfecting her friend.
