Collins POV

"I tried to take Emily's hand, but she pulled away. I was confused, maybe she didn't like me back, or maybe she.... -I don't know." I thought to myself.

"I'm sorry I didn't" - she cut me off

"It's ok, just umm " Emily mumbled She was hiding something from me, or she didn't have the heart to tell me she was interested. My heart dropped when that thought came to mind.

"You don't need to tell me"

She gave me a small nod and I smiled back.

I pointed towards the dock I love to go to, "they sunset, boaters and surfers are fun to watch" I said awkwardly.
-
We walked over to the narrow dock with no conversation. I was worried I might scare her off.
-
"Here, i know where we could sit" I said breaking the silence.

"Ok" Emily responded with a small voice. I lead us towards a bench the sat near the end of the narrow dock. We walked around and sat down, me on the left, Emily on the right. Emily laid her hands down in her lap, causing her sleeves to roll up. I looked down, there were marks on Her wrists.
"Umm" I mumbled. "Emily what happened to your wrists?" I questioned
She cocked her head towards me so we were face to face. She then pushed her sleeves back down.

"nothing." She shot out very quickly.

"Emily, are you ok?" I asked with much concern. Tears were forming in her eyes.

"You can't get mad?" She asked. "I won't." I replied. "C-Collins. I cut. It's been happening for months." she cried out.
At this point I knew what was going on. I didn't know what to do, I have never seen anyone in this situation or known someone who had felt this way towards themselves.

Her hands were up to her eyes and she kept crying. A few moments past and gave her a hug. Her breathing soon went back to normal but her eyes were still swollen from crying so hard. Our eyes met and I spoke
"Don't feel bad about this, it's ok." I said with tears forming in my own eyes. Emily looked back down to her wrists.
"I did this to myself. I deserve to feel bad" she said still crying a little
"You don't deserve to feel bad about  yourself! Emily, your beautiful. Emily, but why? " I said with a positive tone then going sad. "At my old school, I was bullied. Beat up, called names, it all just got to me and by doing this just made me feel better. All my insecurities and everything just seemed to leave when i cut. Collins, why don't you hate me?" Emily had said with confusion
"Hate you..? I would never hate you or get mad at you because of this Emily! I promise I never will.. C'mon it may be a good time to get some ice cream!" She wiped away her tears, I smiled. We left the bench and we headed towards the ice cream truck.
"So what are you gonna to get?" I asked curiously
"I don't know.." She said with a smile.
