3 months after the squip
Michaels POV

"You ready for the best sleepover ever?!" I yelled laughing

"Y.. Yeah I guess..." Jeremy said softly.

"Aw come on! We can stay up all night." I nudged him.

"O... Ok."

"Dude we haven't had one in two months." I said. Worry was sinking in..

"Sorry. Just didn't get a lot of sleep last night so I am kinda out of it."

"Well you better not be for tomorrow!"

Late the next night
I opened my eyes slowly hearing something. Crying? I slowly saw up. It was Jeremy crying. He was curled up not facing me. How long was he like this? I picked up my phone. It was 2:00 am.

Oh my god...

Before I could help him the cries soften into shaking breath. Then silent.

I stood still. My heart breaking. My best friend just cried himself to sleep.

••••

The next day

"He what?" Christine said her eyes widen.

I was sitting outside with everyone exept Jeremy.

"He cried himself to sleep!?" Brooke said heartbroken.

"Has Jeremy been acting different lately?" I said worried.

Slowly Rich nodded.

"At firtht I didn't think anything of it but a few weekth ago Jeremy looked awful an-"

"Was this when I had the flu?" I asked. Rich nodded again.

"Ya.. He had red eyeth and fell athleep in clath.. I Athked him what happened but he told me he had a new neighbor with a baby crying at night."

Everyone looked at rich their eyes had small tears. Jenna sighed.

"A few days ago I saw Jeremy go in the restroom and didn't come out for an hour."

"Why where you there for an hour........ Never mind. Did you see him when he came out?" Jake asked.

Jenna nodded again. "He seemed rushed? And his eyes were red. When I asked him what happened he brushed it off saying he ate something spoiled last night."

"Ok we need to find who is hurting Jeremy." I said

"Michael how do you know someone is hurting him?" Chloe asked

"Becuase that's how I acted when Jeremy left me."

Everyone started at me. Guilt in their eyes.

"Michael. We will help Jeremy.."

A few nights later
"

Michael? You a.. Awake?" I could hear Jeremy whisper. I didn't move. It hurt me for not helping but I need to know. I begged him to have another sleepover. We did he seemed so happy in the day... But at night... I made a small snore sound.

A few minutes later I slowly turned around facing Jeremy. I heard him move around in bed. Sniffling coming. Then cries.. Then covered sobs. My heart ripped in pieces.

Terror soon ran threw me. This happened to me as well... When he left me.. I cried myself to sleep. Before I did some nights I cu-.. Oh god. Jeremy please you didn't do it.

My eyes panicked.

He wouldn't right..? He can't.

30 mins later after he fell asleep I got up and I peered over him sleeping. Very slowly and carefully I pulled his sleeve up making sure not to wake him.

I turned my flash light on my phone only shining it to his arm. and looking all over his arm over.

I was relieved. There was nothing their, Only old shock marks left from that monster.

Jeremy slowly turned around. I quickly ducked hiding the light. I heard a soft snore and I sighed.

I put my phone down and layed in bed closing my eyes. At least hes not doing that...

His other arm.

My mind raced. I bolted up. Scrambing for my phone again. I turned the flash on and lifted up his sleeve. Please no please no.

I couldn't see any scars. I slowly turned is arm over, his palm facing up shaking.

My heart sank. Jeremy... There was old and new scars all up and down his arm.

Tears where in my eyes now and I let out a sob.

"M.. Michael..?" I heard Jeremy say sleeply

"Why."

Jeremy got the hint. He looked at me then where my eyes were and yanked it back. Sitting up.

"Jeremy how long?" I said holding back a sob.

he looked down at his arm.

"How long." I said with concern.

"two months ago.."

Realization hit me. That's why he didn't let me sleepover...

"Jer, you could of talked to me.." I said as I sat in bed with him. He pulled back and shook his head.

"Y.. You wouldn't... It feels like no one knows what I am going to."

"I know exactly what you are going threw Jeremy! I said almost yelling "You know that! You begged me to stop and blamed yourself for it when you found out. Now I am begging you to stop." I said

His eyes watered and he jumped in my arms hugging me and sobbed. He was shaking and crying. "Im sorry! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!"

There was no words to say. So I hugged him tighter.

"Why though..?" I said

He looked up at me tears stained him.

"His voice is back."
