~Johnnie's POV~

"Bryan." I still didn't understand why he wrapped his arm.

"Wh-What?" He stuttered nervously.

"What happened to your arm?" He looked at me funny, like he was in denial. Then it hit me. "Bryan, let me see your arm..." He looked down and I swear I saw a tear fall. I walked over to him and unwrapped his arm, looking everywhere but his wrist until the bandage was completely off, just like normal. I looked down to see the worst thing, even though I knew it was coming: cuts. A lot of them too. "Bryan..."

"They told me to die again, Johnnie..." He said as another tear fell. I felt so awkward. I looked down at my arms and looked at his again before looking at him again. That's when I felt a tear slide down my face. "You don't understand, Johnnie. It's hard not to believe them."

"I know."

"No you don't, Johnnie." And that's when I made an important decision.

I pulled up my own sleeve and showed my arm covered in scars from 5 years ago and fresh cuts from 5 hours ago.

"Bryan. I understand."

"I thought you stopped..." He looked at me with one of the saddest looks. I told him I stopped 2 months ago, which I did... For 3 days. "Why did you do it again...?"

"I can't drown my demons. They know how to swim. We can talk about this in the morning. You need sleep."
