Otis Pov-

God I hate myself.... Why was I born female... I hate my body.... Sadly the legal age for top surgery is 18..... I hate myself.... I want to cut myself until I fucking make a bloody mess of my arms.... but... I made a promise... a promise to Zander.... but its not like he'd see, right... right? the school uniform covers our arms. I go and I pick up the blade, dragging it across my arms over and over again until all my arms are are cuts... I was clean for a good 3 months.... I couldn't take it anymore... I had to... the scars, they were fading... the urge was coming back... I.COULDN'T.STOP.MYSELF. I pick up my phone, my hand shaking heavily, as I message Zander.

Zander Pov-

Otis you idiot why... No! Get it together! Go  sneak through his window!

Otis said he felt lightheaded... he might pass out or worse... die! No no no Zander you're overthinking it....Otis won't die! I won't let him!

I sneak out my window using a ladder, sadly I had to because my bedrooms on the 2nd floor, I then run to Otis's window, opening it and running to hug him, I stare at his arms with a shocked look on my face.... he wasn't lying...

Otis Pov-

Zander's here! wait why's he staring at my arms like that... I feel like I'm gonna pass out...

Zander Pov-

Holy shit! "Otis? OTIS! OTIS WAKE UP!" I yell, his mum bursting into his room.

"Hey Zander... Wait shit! OTIS WAKE UP! No...no no! this can't be happening.." She screams...

"I'll call 911!" I say as I shake, using my phone to dial 911..

"Hello this is 911 how may I assist you?" Says the operator.

"M-my friend he just passed out uhh... we need an ambulance, he said he felt lightheaded then I walked over to his and he passed out, he's bl-bleeding from his arms..." I say, shaking heavily.

"Okay sir ambulance is on the way just stay calm... how badly is your friend bleeding?"

"He's- His arms there covered in blood... he has cuts all over.... please how much longer till the ambulance arrives?"

"Sir just 2 more minutes."

2 minutes pass 

We hear the ambulance arrive and he gets taken away. I'm just sitting there shaking, I can't lose him..... I love him too much... I can't live without him...
