Henry's POV:
November 1st, I woke up in Zoey's bed, but she was nowhere to be found. What happened last night? Where is my shirt? I looked around for my phone and saw it on Zoey's nightstand. I grabbed it and checked the time, 10:32 am. I need to get home. I feel awful. I guess this is what a hangover is like. Zoey walks through the door, carrying my shirt.

"You're awake." She smiles, tossing my shirt to me.

"What happened last night Zoey? Why am I in your bed?" I asked.

"You really don't remember anything?" She laughed. I shook my head no. "Well you were pretty wasted. Okay, so long story short. You got super drunk and threw up all over my bathroom and passed out. So I let you sleepover and borrow one of my hoodies. I also washed your shirt, you were a mess last night". I was in disbelief.

"Where's your bathroom?" I asked.

"It's right in front of you silly."

I walked to the door obviously in front of me. I remembered me puking all over her bathroom. The events of last night flooded back. I made such a fool of myself. I changed back into my shirt and walked back into Zoey's room. I handed Zoey her hoodie back.

"Thanks Zoey." I walked away  to leave. I needed to get home. "Wait Henry. Can we talk before you leave?"

Great. What other stupid thing did I do last night?

"Yeah, what's up Zoey?" I mumbled.

"I saw something last night, and I wanted to ask you about it." She sighed. My heart dropped.

"What was it?" I nervously asked.

"Henry, I saw your arm. Those cuts on it, did you do those? Are you hurting yourself?" She asked, she had a look of pity and worry on her face.

"I don't know what you're talking about." I spat out. I ran out of her room, she followed.

"Henry! Please I'm worried!" She yelled after me. I kept running. I ran out of her house and onto the sidewalk. I guess I'm walking home.

Zoey's POV:
I watched Henry as he ran out. I knew there wasn't much I could do to stop him. I felt bad for upsetting him but I'm just worried. How long has he been doing this? I decided I should tell someone. I texted Charlotte.

Zoey: Hey Charlotte. Can I tell you something?

Charlotte: Sure Zo. What is it?

Zoey: I'm really worried about Henry. I saw his arm last night and it was covered it cuts. I think he might be hurting himself.

Charlotte: I've been worried about him for awhile, he's been acting different. Thanks for telling me. I'm gonna try to get him some help.
