Chapter 17

Luke 💕

I didn't think he'd actually do it – but I was proven so, so wrong when he lifted my chin up and pressed his lips against mine. I was suddenly aware that people were watching when they started gasping and murmuring and pointing, and I regretted being suggestive to him immediately, my cheeks heating up in record time as my heart rate rose rapidly.

Without thinking I pushed him off, looking angry and flustered, and rushed out of the room, blaming myself repeatedly for letting me get him into a mess. He was probably going to get beat up for making out with someone like me – there was no doubt.

I locked myself in a cubicle, lifting up my sleeves and trying to scratch but cussing when I remembered I'd cut my nails last night. Why? Why did I cut them?

Because you decided to give up scratching, remember?

I forced the voice out of my head and kicked the cubicle walls, sending a loud echo through the room. Now the urge was taking over and I had to do something, fast, to control the feelings, so I did the first thing that came to my mind – bash my head against the wall.

Only, that didn't do enough damage, only making me a little bit dizzy. My legs gave way and my head collided with the ceramic toilet seat, and with that I fainted.

When I eventually woke up, it was in an unfamiliar room with dim lighting and a single window to my left letting in a bit of light. From what I could see, it was already beginning to get dark, and upon checking my phone I saw that it was 4pm. School had already ended, so where was I?

"Luke?"

With difficulty I turned my head and saw Jack sitting on a chair by the bed I was on, with a firm but tired smile. "Where am I?"

"Infirmary. You had a little accident in the toilet this morning. Do you remember?"

I tilted my head, and sniffing, I replied, "Yeah. Yeah I was in the toilet. Don't tell me I've been asleep all this time...?"

He sighed and buried his head in his hands. "Luke, you were knocked out unconscious – you were hardly sleeping. Listen... are you okay? Like, I know that's a stupid question, but... what's going on?"

I couldn't exactly tell him that his boyfriend had tried kissing me in the middle of the classroom... no, that would spoil everything for him and for me. "N-nothing's wrong," I mumbled.

"You really expect me to believe that?" I bit my lip, unsure of how to reply. He sighed and with a softer voice, continued. "I know I haven't been the best brother for you these past few years. Honestly, I just don't know what to do... we're so different that I have no idea what I can do to help you. I've tried so many ways – I'm even trying one now, but nothing's working. If anything, things have gotten worse for you."

I didn't know what he was going on about but acknowledged how hard it must've been for him as a brother. "I'm sorry."

"No, don't apologise. I wish there was something I could do to help."

Suddenly, I felt this hole in the pit of my stomach. Whilst he was agonising over trying to help me, I was kissing his boyfriend behind his back. I felt awful, to the extent that I wanted to be sick. I decided it was time to confess, or else the guilt would linger as a heavy weight on my shoulders forever. "There's something I need to tell you Jack..."
