Slices in the Park

Tord's POV

I wake up from my nap after a while and check the time on my phone. " 3 hours?! What the hell?" How did I sleep this long? I should probably walk my tiredness off. I grab my keys to the house and head for the city park. I always liked the park at night time. I walk down my driveway and into town.

Tom's POV

I get to the park and sit down on a bench. Should have worn a thinner coat. I think as I curse my hoodie for being so thick. The bleeding had stopped a while ago so my hoodie sleeves were dotted purple from the blood. I end up dozing off from lack of sleep.

Tord's POV

I get to the park and the first thing I notice is a figure with familiar hair and blue hoodie. Is that.... "Tom?" I walk over to him and see that he is asleep. Why the hell is he out here in the heat with a hoodie on and how can he sleep with that thing on in the heat?!  I sit next to him and slightly shake him awake. "Tom. Tom wake up." I look at his face and notice a bunch if cuts and bruises littering his face and neck. What the hell? How did he get those? I go to touch the cuts but I am stopped by a hand grabbing my wrist. It is Tom holding very tightly onto my wrist with a scared look. "What are you doing?" He asks in a terrified voice.

Tom's POV

I wake up to see Tord reaching for my cut and bruised face from the beating I got earlier today. I did the only thing I could think of in this situation and grabbed his wrist to stop him from touching my face. My arm stung from moving so fast and I flinched at the pain. " what are you doing?" I asked looking at his startled face. "I-I was just walking around in the park when I saw you and I tried to wake you up to make sure you're okay... What happened to your face Tom?" I noticed that I was still holding onto his wrist and let go. "It's nothing." I get up and start to walk away but he grabbed one if my cut up arms and holds it tightly causing me to scream in pain and fall to the ground clutching my arm and shaking. "Tom! What happened?! Why is your arm hurt so badly?" He reaches for my arm but before I can pull it away he grabs it as lightly but tightly as he can and pulls up my sleeve.

Tord's POV

I roll up Tom's arm to see a bunch of cuts littering his arm. I quickly grab his other one and do the same seeing just that same thing as his other arm.
"T- Tom? Why? Why did you do this to yourself?!" I start to tear up and he flinches away from me at my outburst. Before I can stop him he gets up and runs away. I chase after him but can't catch up to him. Damn it!! Why did he do that to himself. What's really going on at home and at school to cause him to self harm?
