-Michael

I didn't expect to see this when Ashton had to burst through the door of Luke's house. I fell to my knees and cradled him in my arms as he was crying. Blood was all over the floor from his bleeding wrists. Cuts run up and down his whole arms and I let the tears fall down my cheeks. Why would my perfect angel do this to himself? He didn't speak though. Instead, he stayed in my arms as he quietly sobbed into my now red shirt. I didn't care though. I was just worried about my baby that decided to hurt himself. Was this why he wasn't at school? How I could I be so stupid and not notice?

Ashton was pacing around, tugging his hair at times. It was him that finally broke the thickening silence.

"Do you guys want hot chocolate?" He asked quietly. I nodded and I slowly got up with Luke clinging onto me.

"Let's go clean you up baby" I whispered. He nodded and allowed me to walk him upstairs to one of the bathrooms.

He sat down on the toilet and I winced when seeing the scars. What kind of boyfriend was I? I didn't even know he had these.

He looked down in shame and allowed me to clean his wounds and wrap them in bandages. Throughout the time I was wrapping him up he wouldn't look at me in the eye. He looked like a small child that just got in trouble for the first time and it broke my heart to see him so torn.

And then his soft voice finally spoke, "Are you m-mad?" My jaw dropped. Why would he think that?

"Of course not," I lift up his chin to look me in the eye, "I could never be mad at you."

He looks back down at his feet and stays silent.

"Let's go back downstairs," I say softly. He only nods and then lightly grabs my hand in his.

When we get downstairs Ashton already has the hot chocolate out onto the coffee table. Me and Luke sit down and continue our silence. Until Ashton tried talking.

"Luke...what happened?" He questioned. Now an uncomfortable silence fell upon us as Luke was now fiddling with his fingers.

"I-I accidentally cut mys-"

"Bullshit! You did this on purpose!" Ashton interrupted. Luke whimpered and cuddled to my side like a scared puppy.

Ashton's eyes soften and he mumbled sorry. I hold Luke close to me and this time quietly asked him what happened.

"I just felt so stupid Mikey. I d-didn't know what I was doing," he stuttered.  I rub his arm in a comforting way and looked up at Ashton who still had a scowl on his face.

"Who made you do this?" Ashton demanded.

"No one," Luke quickly answered.

"Baby please tell us," I pleaded.

"No," Luke snapped. And with that he got up and left the both of us in the living room.
