The 4 delinquents next door

Chapter 23

Lee POV

The guys, and I were at a party. I told Stacey to stay with me or one of the guys while we are here because there is drunk guys, and I don't want the same thing that happened to Stacey a month ago to happen again. I thought if we take her to a party, it would take her mind off all the shit that has happened the last couple of days, and I have heard what people have been saying to her. What they talk about her but Stacey tells us that she's fine, and nobody has said anything to her which is totally bullshit. The party was alright but it could be better, I thought then I got a text off Stacey telling me that she's away home so I started talking to Justin, and the guys.

 "Stacey's away home" I tell them. 

"We know because we got a text from her too" they say, and I nodded.

"I think I should go and check on her" Justin said looking worried.

"Don't bother, she will be fine" I tell him.

I looked at the time, it's 11:45 am so I decided the guys, and I  should go home. When we got in the door was already unlocked, I guess Stacey was sleeping, and decided not to go to school. The guys went in the living room, and I looked at Justin.

"Justin. I need your charger" I tell him.

"Ugh bro use it but put it back. I am fed up with everyone using it" he tells me, and I nodded. 

I then went upstairs, walked into Justin's room to see Stacey holding straighteners onto her arm, and she took them off when she seen me.

"What the fuck are you doing?" I asks her, and Stacey looked down.

 "I'm fed up pretending to be a victim. I am not one" she said which make me confused. 

"What do you mean?" I ask.

"It's all my fault because if I hadn't slapped Damien then he wouldn't have paid the guy to do what he did, then if I was maybe more nicer to Jai he wouldn't have put the video online" she tells me, I mentally sighed she can't blame herself for what happened I think to myself.

Stacey kept going on about how people were saying stuff about her, calling her names, and then she told me what happened to day at school. 

"Why do you self- harm?" I ask.

"I stopped" she tells m but  I looked at her confused, and stacey sighed.

"I will tell you, and the guys" she said, and I nodded.

"Stacey do you want me to go, and get the guys?" I asked, and Stacey nodded.

I went downstairs then walked into the living room, I looked at the guys then mentally sighed about everything, and the guys looked at me. 

"Guys..Stacey wants to talk to us" I tell them.

"Why?" They asked looking confused/worried.

"I walked in on her holding hair straighteners to her arm" I tell them.

The guys eyes widened then they ran upstairs, we all went into the room before we sat down on the bed next to Stacy, and Ryan was the first one to speak which broke the silence.

"Stacey why?" Ryan asked.

"That's what I want to talk to you about" she said which made as nod, and she started talking.

Stacey's POV

I can't believe that I was that stupid to get caught by Lee, ugh usually I never get caught but anyway the guys are wanting me to explain myself, and I guess I ave too. 

"Well I started self harming when I was 15, the only reason I did it was because my dad used to be an alcoholic, and he used to beat me. My mother wouldn't do anything about it since she always told me it's my own fault that my dad hits me, and this happened everyday. My dad was always careful were he hit me encase anyone noticed, I started self harming because it help me with the pain after a while I started becoming numb, and I done it to feel something. I stopped after Brad, and I  started dating because he made me feel something. He told me that I shouldn't be doing it because I am beautiful, amazing with or without scars but he wanted me to stop, and I did stop. I haven't self harmed since then well until now" I tell the guys, I kept fidgeting with my hands as I spoke about my past. 

"It's just everything that's happened, what people have been saying to me at school but I didn't want to tell you guys because you have done everything for me so far, and I have never really had any people in my life like that before. I wanted to see if I could handle it now I guess I can't, and  even though I really want to be able to deal with things on my own rather than relaying on you guys" I tell them, the guys looked at me for a moment before they all got up, and hugged me.

"You don't have to everything by yourself. We are here for you no matter what" they tell me, and I nodded.

 "I will stop again" I say which made them smile, and nod. 

"Can I see your old scars?" Steven asked.

I looked at the guys for a second but they nodded, I took off my jeans then on my hips there are scars, on my thighs I have "worthless" on them, and you could see some other old scars. I showed them my side where I have more scars, and the guys just looked at me in disbelief as well with a shocked look.

"You are beautiful" they tell me.

I gave them a small smile, with that the guys walked out while leaving me alone, and I think to myself  well that's another thing the guys know about me.
