Warnings- mention of self harm

Once he finally looks up I ask him, "what drove you to do this Virgil...?" I can't even begin to imagine the amount of pain he is going through to feel like this is the answer. "Well... I love someone... And there is no way they'd ever love someone like me... And I wanted to get rid of the emotional pain so I tried to flush it out with physical pain..." He says quietly, seeming to fight back tears.
I feel my heart shrivel up... He loves someone else... I think sadly to myself. I try to fight back tears but they roll down my cheeks anyway.

"Logan are you-?" He starts but I cut him off. "Yes, but Virgil... That isn't the most ideal way to handle it... I love someone who would never love me as well... I can somewhat relate to how you feel. Whoever it is that you love probably feels the same. They'd be lucky to have you"

I watch him start to sway on his feet. "Oh shit... Sit down, I should have done something sooner. I'm a fucking idiot!" I grumble. I watch him pull a chair out and try to sit in it but he misses it completely, probably from blood loss, I think silently to myself. I help him up and grab two washcloths to try and stop his arms from bleeding. As I was about to lay the second one on his left arm I notice that the cuts actually form a word... No... Not a word... A name, my name...

I start to feel as if I might throw up. You did this to him. I wave the thought off to the best of my ability. "Di-did I? Did I do something... Something wrong?" I ask shakily. "Well... You know how I said that I loved someone who would never love me back? I carved his name into my skin..."
He hangs his head. "R-really? Well... The guy I love carved my name into his skin, because I was to dumb and scared to tell him how I feel. He is gorgeous, dark, witty and sarcastic. And I hope he accepts this speech as both an apology and an offer to be in a relationship?" I feel my words form into a question at the end.

He looks up at me again, now beaming. "'I accept this speech as both an apology as well as an offer to be in a relationship'... I love you Logan." He says quietly, taking my hands in his gently.
