Stand By Me Preferences & Imagines ON HOLD

Hurt - Gordie

Kinda short but hella sad. Don't read if you aren't comfortable with self harm.

You were sitting on the couch with your boyfriend, Gordie. A while later, watching TV and cuddling turned into a make out session. 

You started to take his plaid shirt off when you looked down at his arm.

"Gordie, what's this?" You asked holding his arm. You looked up at him, knowing that focusing on his arms would make him feel worse. 

"Nothing." He replied quickly, grabbing his arm back. 

"You know I know what that is."

He sighed and started to put his shirt back on to cover the scars. 

"Babe. You don't need to hide these from me."

He kept looking down.

"I don't know what to say." He whispered.

"That makes two of us. Why'd you do this to yourself?"

"It's my dad. You know how he is, it's almost three years since Denny-" he stopped, wiping his eyes as his voice cracked, "p-please, Y/N, don't make me talk about it,"

"Gordie. No one deserves this. You especially. I've watched you save Teddy's life, Chris's life and believe it or not, my life and Vern's life at one point. You are the least deserving person of all of this. Please stop, babe. I'll be here for you no matter what but I don't want you hurting yourself. How about we make a deal. Think of who it hurts when you do this. I know that it feels good for a while, but it's only temporary. What lasts forever is my love for you, so please don't hurt yourself," You say, grabbing his arm and kissing the scars.

"I love you." He whispers.

"I love you too,"
