Today you had gym class. Of course it wasn't anything bad, you didn't mind exercising. But ever since your second year of high school started, you've been skipping out on gym class. Nobody ever questioned you though, maybe you just didn't want to be there, or you had something come up at the same time. But those weren't reasons that you were skipping.

You see, you had to change into your P.E. uniform every time for gym class. And your shirt was always sleeveless. You didn't like that since your arms were always hidden in your sleeves. On your [S/C] arms you had three cuts. Yes, you have cut yourself before.

You've never told anybody about it, not even your boyfriend, Kise. You didn't want anyone to know. You were going to skip again, but it'll be harder since Kise is in your class and he will get suspicious as to why you aren't present.

You walked beside your boyfriend as your were both heading to the locker rooms to change into your gym uniforms.

"I'm not going to be in gym class today, Ryouta. You can go on ahead without me," you said, falling behind.

"Eh? Why not [F/N]-cchi?" He asked with a pair of golden puppy eyes.

"I'm...not feeling good so I'll pass," you replied, walking away but then you felt him tug slightly on the sleeve of your blazer.

"If you're not feeling well then I'll bring you to the infirmary," Kise replied worriedly. You brought your hands up in front of your chest in defense.

"No no it's fine! I'm not sick. I just don't feel like being active today, so I'm just going to be in the library studying," you lied to him. You felt guilty for not telling him the truth, but it was better than for him to see the marks on your arm. He muttered a small unsure okay as you both parted ways.

You headed to the roof of the school to relax and get your mind of some things.

During gym class, the teacher told everyone to start by running laps. Kise was running as he was told and he perked up when he heard your name in a girl's conversation with another.

"You know, now that I notice it, [L/N] hasn't attended gym class for a long time," she said.

"Yeah, you're right. I heard-" she was cut off when the teacher blew the whistle signaling to stop.

You walked back down to the hallway to get some water until you ran into your best and childhood friend. He's the only person who knows what you're doing, and being the friend he is, he's been doing all he can to support you.

"Skipping again?" He asked, as he leaned against the wall.

"Yeah," you replied.

"You do know that you'll fail if you keep on skipping,"

"Yeah, but you know," you said, tapping lightly on your arm.

"Speaking of your arm, haven't you told Kise about this?"

"No," you replied. At this moment, Kise was walking to where you two were because there was a water fountain there. He heard quiet voices, and instantly realized it was yours and a male's voice.

'I thought she was studying...' Kise thought.

"Why haven't you told him?" [B/N] said.

"Ryouta doesn't need to know. At least not yet. I'm just not ready to tell him," you answered.

'Doesn't need to know what?' He thought as his heart started beating faster.

"He's your boyfriend though. Don't you trust him?"

"I do, but....can we just keep this in between us? I'm not ready to tell him yet," you asked, as Kise came into view.

"What are you not telling me, [F/N]-cchi?" He asked in a worried voice, hoping you weren't cheating.

"I thought you were studying. Why are you here instead? [F/N]-cchi, please tell me whatever you're hiding," he asked gently, afraid of what you might answer. You hid your hands behind your back. [B/N] placed his hand on your shoulder then glanced at you and mouthed a good luck and left.

"Is there something going in between you and him? Are you cheating on me?" He interrogated, placing his hands on your shoulders and trying to make you look at him.

"I'm not cheating on you! It's just something else,"

"What is it? I'm your boyfriend. I should know what's going on with my girlfriend. Now tell me what's going on," he demanded, his golden eyes emitting a soft glow.

"I-It's nothing!" You said as you stormed past him, but he quickly grabbed onto your wrists firmly, but not enough to inflict pain.

"R-Ryouta, let go of me!" You yelled out, trying to pull your arm back, not realizing that your sleeve was slipping up, showing the scars you had. You saw him look at it.

"H-Hey let-"

"Why didn't you tell me?" He cut you off with a sad voice.

"I- I didn't want you to know. You wouldn't understand," you said looking at your boyfriend who had a sad look on his face. Before you knew it, he pulled you into his arms, embracing you warmly.

"I don't know why you would hurt yourself, but please don't do it anymore, [F/N]-cchi. It pains me to know that you can't come to me for comfort and had to resort to this," he muffled into your neck. You didn't respond back.

"Promise me, that you won't do this to yourself anymore. I don't want my beautiful girlfriend to be in pain or covered in scars. If you're not feeling well, just come to me and I'll do everything in my power to see you smile," he pleaded almost sounding like he about to cry.

"Ryouta, you just don't-"

"Please. Promise me, [F/N]." He begged. You knew Kise was dead serious when he didn't use the suffix he always uses.

"....okay," you agreed, as Kise only enveloped you in his warm embrace even tighter.

"Thank goodness. And just so you know, [F/N]-cchi, I'll always be here for you, so don't do that to yourself anymore. I don't like seeing the girl I love in pain," he said as he placed a loving and assuring kiss on your lips.
