Pressure

tw sh again 

Reds POV

It's exam season at Auradon prep and I couldn't give less of a shit about my results, however my complete polar opposite Chloe is in a real study grind. I don't know how she does it, she wakes up early to study, then goes to school, then goes to sword and shield practice, then she comes home and studies even more. She's a crazy perfectionist and puts so much pressure on herself, I guess if you are a charming there is certainly standards, the only box Chloe doesn't tick is that she isn't interested in a Mr Charming, more like a Miss Charming. Anyways luckily for me Bridget is chill about grades unless I'm failing everything of course, the teachers are also a lot more laid back on me as I am in lower classes so there is no pressure to pass at all. Chloes parents don't really care about Chloes grades either though, well actually I don't know because Chloes probably never put them in a situation where they need to worry, I think it's more Chloe putting pressure on herself though. I'm a bit concerned about her though as last weekend she didn't even move off her desk, not to sleep, not to eat, not once. That is not happening this weekend though, I need some Chloe time. I decide to wakeup early and go get Chloe breakfast but when I get up I notice Chloe asleep at her desk again,

"Chlo" I softly shake her,

"Huh wha- did I fall asleep?!" She looks as if she is struggling to keep her eyes open,

"Lets go back to bed" I grab her hands and guide her to my bed,

"I really should be studying" She yawns,

"Just a quick nap okay?" I get into bed and she flops down on top of me, I almost instantly hear her softly snoring and I slowly drift asleep as well, 

"DAMNIT!" I wake up to Chloe yelling,

"Chloe?" I sit up to see her back at her desk,

"Not now Red, I already messed up my study schedule" She says,

"Sorry" I sigh and check the time, it's around 1pm so I decide to go to the dining hall to get us some food, I don't understand why Chloe puts so much pressure on herself, it is so unhealthy, I really need to put a stop to it. Once I have loaded up my tray I head back to our dorm, when I get to our floor I can hear loud crashing coming from down the hall, I quicken my pace and the sounds just get louder until I get through the door. It is complete silence.

"Chloe?" I look around the room to see papers scattered everywhere, I put down the tray and carefully manoeuvre around the room in search of the blue hair girl, my eyes widen as I see a shattered photo frame,

"What the fuck" I pick up the photo and it's of Chloe with her parents, but it looks like something has stabbed into her face causing the glass to shatter, as I study it more I notice a red smear on the frame, before I can process it hear a quiet sob from the bathroom,

"Chloe??!" I run into the bathroom to see her in a ball in the corner of the room,

"Chloe are you okay???" I rush down to pull her into my embrace but she jolts back, I quickly retreat my arms and look at her, her hands are shaking like crazy so I slowly grab them, once my hands are in hers I notice they feel awfully wet so I pull a hand back to see it stained red,

"Chloe!?" I flip over her hands to expose her wrists pouring with blood,

"C-Chloe w-what did you do?!" I pull my hands back and look around the room, I see a shard of glass beside her and pick it up, one side stained red,

"Chloe!" I ignore her past actions and pull her into my arms, I grip her tightly as her cries get louder,

"It's okay Chloe" I whisper, we sit there for a while until Chloes cries dim down to occasional sniffles,

"Come on baby" I slowly pull her to her feet, she is yet to look into my eyes as I know she is embarrassed, I lead her out to the room and sit her down on the end of the bed, I rush around grabbing things before I sit down beside her. I reveal her wrists once again and softly clean them, I notice a few tears drop onto her lap,

"Chloe it's okay" I say as I start to bandage them up, after I'm finished I take off my hoodie and put it on Chloe, she stares numbly at the ground as silent tears roll off her face, I help her into the bed and pull the covers over her. I grab the food and water I had before and bring it over to the bed, I sit beside her and hand her the water, she doesn't move, she just aimlessly stares at it. I look down at her hands still shaking and sigh before opening the bottle and holding it up to her lips, she opens her mouth and I slowly pour water in watching her drink it, after she shuts her mouth I grab a spoonful of the soup they were serving at lunch at hold it upto her lips.

"Come on Bluey" I say and she opens her mouth slightly, I feed her a couple of spoonfuls and put the food aside, I  get under the covers with her and  pull her into my arms again. We sit in silence for a while until Chloe finally speaks up,

"I'm a failure" She says, her voice weak from crying,

"Don't you dare say that Chloe Charming. You are not a failure. you have put too much pressure on yourself and pushed yourself to a breaking point, I'm sorry I didn't stop you sooner" I kiss her forehead and she finally looks up at me,

"I-I'm not okay Red" She cries,

"It's okay baby, I've got you now" I pull her closer and let her cry into me.
