"Why the fuck was I called out to the police station at 5:00 in the morning to find you here with a hand infection?!?! the fuck happened?!?!" Jack yelled.

    I sat silently wrapped in a blanket staring blankly at the floor. I could hardly hear anything Jack was saying.

"It was a mistake..... nope not supposed to happen...." I whispered the I started whispering the word mistake over and over again subconsciously.

    A look of sympathy came over Jacks face and he sat down beside me worried. We sat there for a good half hour before he drove me home.....

"Get your ass out of bed Lee!!!" Jack yelled.

    I sat up in bed and looked at him as he stood in the doorway. I haven't come out of my room in at least a week. Jack looked kinda stunned as he saw my bare chest. My ribs shown clearly under my skin, my hair was all over the place and my eyes were blood shot.

   I raised my hand to scratch the back of my neck but that was a big mistake. Jack saw the cuts that ran the whole way up my arm before I put it back down again trying to hide it. He sighed sat down beside me.

"Starving yourself won't help. Cutting won't help either. Come on you haven't been at school for a week you have to go back you already missed about a month of school...."

"Fine...."

    He hugged me tightly then left my room without another word. I got up and grabbed a pair of once skinny jeans that where now two sizes too big and a shirt that had the nine tailed Fox from Naruto on it that now when down to the middle of my thighs. I wrapped gauze the whole way from my wrist the my shoulders to hide the marks on my skin.

  Grabbing a few books and putting them in my backpack, I left my room and skipped breakfast. I decided to walk to school today. I didn't feel like dealing with Sam.... I almost fell asleep in a few classes but I made it through the day.

    I was quite to run out of school today. I didn't want to meet Sam or Jason or anyone yet I ran straight into Jason. He turned around looking angrier than usual.

"Hey punk! Why'd ya run into me?!!?" he growled.

"I'm sorry just leave me alone. Please not today." I pleaded.

    Then came the unexpected. His gaze softened and it actually became a look of sympathy. He held out his hand to help me up. I took it but not without consideration. My arms stung a bit when he pulled me up but he didn't try anything.

"Dude what's up with that bandages?" he asked.

"Why would you want to know? Its not like you care...."

"Heh true see a later loser."

    He walked away snickering. Aw the cruel Jason is back, I thought to myself. I walked home and when I got there, I layed on my bed most of the night until I slowly fell asleep.
