TW: Self-Harm Talk










"Colby? Im home" you yell as you walk in through the frontdoor and place your things to the side.

Sam walked out of his bedroom to get a cup of water.

"Hey Sam, where is Colby?" you ask.

"I don't know, i think he is in the bathroom" Sam says and then walks into his office to edit some videos.

You walk up the stairs and into the bedroom you and Colby share. you see the light turned on in the bathroom, so u choose to just sit down on the bed, and wait for Colby to come out.

You open up your phone and go directly onto YouTube and into the comments.

The first comment you saw was a hate comment, and since you were logged into Sam and Colby's account, you immediately deleted the comment.

You went down and deleted at least a dozen hate comments more.

Colby tried not to show it, but you had noticed how he was getting more and more sensitive to the hate comments that had been coming through recently.

5 minutes went by and you had lost yourself in your phone going through instagram until you heard a key being turned, and you immediately looked up at the bathroom door.

Colby was walking out of the bathroom looking down at his left arm, when he suddenly looked up at you and hurriedly pulled down his sleeve.

"Sorry.. I..I hadn't.. heard you" Colby says with a nervous and stuttering voice.

"Whats wrong babe?" You ask him worriedly.

"Nothing.. Im.. Im fine" Colby continues to speak while walking over towards the bed.

"Im just really tired, Im gonna go to bed now" Colby says faking a yawn.

"Okay babe, Im just gonna go talk to Sam for a bit and then il come back"

Colby just lets out a small nod as a response as he had already went into bed and under the covers.

You walk out of the room and into the office where Sam was still editing his and Colby's videos. You take a seat in the brown leather chair next to Sam.

"Whats up?" Sam asks not looking up from his Computer screen.

"I think somethings wrong with Colby"
You said with a worried voice

Sam immediately looks at you with an asking look on his face.

You begin to tell him about what you just experienced and also tell him how Colby was almost shaking and how it looked like he had been crying for hours.

You then get to the part where he was pulling down his sleeve really fast and without saying anything you could see that Sam just had the exact same terrible thought as you.

"You don't think he" Sam managed to say with tears in his eyes before you cut him off

Tears were now forming in your eyes.

" I don't know, i really don't hope so"
You say with a cracking voice.

"Should we go in and check?" Sam suggests.

You nod in response before quickly standing up and walking towards, you and Colby's room.

Sam was right behind you as you quietly opened the bedroom door.

Colby was already asleep, you knew because of the same faint snoring you have had to listen to every night for the last 3 years.

You walk over beside the bed and sit down beside Colby.

"If there isn't anything we will just forget this and if there are we will wake him up, okay?"
You demand more than ask with a quiet voice while looking up at Sam.

Sam nods hesitantly.

You pull Colby's left sleeve up to around his elbow and looks down at the thing you didn't want to see.

8 fresh cuts.

The tears in your eyes were streaming down your face while looking up at Sam.

"We have to wake him up" you say to Sam that also have Tears rolling down his cheeks.

"Wouldn't it be better if we just let him sleep? And then confronts him tomorrow." sam says not taking his eyes off of the red puffy Cuts that roams his best friends skin.

You hesitate to answer but ends up nodding, as you pull Colby's sleeve back down and stands up.

"We will do it tomorrow morning i promise" sam said with a comforting look, as he walks out of the room closing the door behind him.

You get in bed next to Colby, and fall asleep easily as you are extremely tired because of all the crying.

The next morning you wake up to an empty bed, Colby isn't beside you anymore.

You quickly get up from bed and change into some new clothes before walking down to the kitchen seeing Colby cooking breakfast and Sam sitting on a stool by the kitchen counter.

"He seemed so happy, how could the thought of self-harm ever cross his mind." You though to yourself before putting on a fake smile and walking further into the kitchen.

"Good morning beautiful" Colby smiled at you before continuing with the breakfast.

"Im making breakfast for all of us" he continued.

"Morning" You said while smiling back at him trying to use a happy voice.

You looked at Sam who also had a smile on, his smile didn't quite reach his eyes tho.

As you all sat down at the table you looked over at Sam to give him the "its time" look.

Sam understood and started
"Hey Colbs, umm we kinda wanted to talk to you about something"

Colby looked up at Sam with a confused look.

"We.. well I.. Kinda noticed how you were acting strange yesterday" You began.

Colby's confused look turned into realisation, when he knew what you were talking about.

"We then kinda checked your arms because we were worried, and.. well.. yeah.. you probably know what happened" you continued not wanting to actually say what you saw.

Colby's face turned pale, and tears were starting to form in his eyes.

" We know you probably don't want to talk about it, but we are really worried about you colbs" Sam said, you could hear that his voice was breaking. That always happened when he tried to hold back his tears.

Colby didn't respond, he just stared down at his lap, fidgeting with the rings on his fingers.

"We both love you, so much Colby. And please know that if you ever feel like doing that again you can always come talk to us."
You said looking at Colby.

"Can you please promise us you will never do this again colbs" Sam said, he wasn't holding his tears in anymore, his face and eyes were red and his cheeks were flooded with tears.

"I promise" Colby said with a quiet voice.

The breakfast was continued in silence.

Colby luckily didn't relapse.

or well if he has, he hasn't told you about it
