Silence. 

That's all there was.

You and your girlfriend, Lena, were just standing there. Right in front of each other, in complete silence. You thought she had left to training already, but you were wrong. She had walked in on you in the bathroom at the worst time. The blade was still in your hands, you stared at lena who looked at you, at a complete lost for words. 

Neither of you said anything, it took a few seconds for it to kick in. Reality hit you, lena had just walked in on you...relapsing. 

Lena's face was filled with worry and concern at first, but something changed. She looked upset, genuinely upset or angry, you couldn't tell exactly. 

"Give me this fucking-" she said, she stopped herself though. She reached down to grab your wrist, she carefully took the blade and walked out of the bathroom. You looked in the mirror, your cuts were very visible. A rush of  guilt ran through your body, you felt tears forming in your eyes. You felt so guilty. 

This isn't what you wanted. 

You held your wrist and looked down on it, you saw a tear fall on the floor. You looked up at lena standing in front of you again. She was looking at your wrist as well. Lena, very gently, took your wrist and brought it over to the sink in front of you. She turned the water on, made sure it was a good temperature. Not too hot, not too cold.

She slowly pulled your wrist and brought it under the running water, you winced at the stinging sensation. You let her clean you up though, she gently rubbed your skin. The cuts weren't deep enough, they were small. After washing them, the blood completely gone. She brought you over to her bedroom, she sat you down on the bed while she left to go look for something else.

You sat there trying to find out how you were going to explain this to her, she knew about your previous...

But she didn't know you were still struggling. 

Lena walked back into the bedroom, bandages in one of her hands and then vaseline in the other. She sat besides you and you gave her your wrist, she held it in her lap and then opened up the vaseline. She took a bit of it and placed it over and around the small cuts, you flinched a little anytime she touched them.

Afterwards she took the badanges and wrapped some of them around your wrist. She placed your wrist back on your lap, you didn't want to look at her but you knew she was looking at you. You could feel her eyes on you. 

You slowly lifted your head and looked at her, your eyes all puffed up from the tears. 

"You don't have to tell me right now, i have all day, i'll be ready for when you do want to talk about it." lena said.
