20- BTW MY CHAPTERS ARE SHORT

I didn't know where to go, and I didn't know what to do. After I told Ashley about my burns I immediately regretted sharing my secret. It's not that Ashley reacted badly towards it, I just didn't want to burden her with more problems. The only reason I told her was because I was fucking drunk and I guess I was in the mood for sympathy. Ever since I left that night she's been calling me non-stop. I'm talking 20x a day, and I haven't answered any of them. It had only been 3 days since the incident and I really needed some time, to be honest I was thinking of telling her that the band and I were playing truth or dare and they dared me to burn my arm. I didn't know if she would believe it but I thought I'd give it a shot.

"Uh hey." I said as I entered her apartment.

"Hey! How have you been, by the way you're an asshole for not answering my calls." Ashley said jokingly, you see what I mean by she was acting weird? She would've never asked me how I've been doing before.

"I'm fine thanks," I said as she ushered me into her home.

"Listen, I was really drunk the night I told you I 'self harmed' and I want to tell you the truth about it." I stopped there and waited for her reaction, she looked really confused.

"The whole 'I burn myself with cigarette thing' wasn't exactly true, you see the band and I were playing truth or dare one night when we were really high and they all dared me to brand my arm w cigarettes." I looked up to see Ashley's face and I couldn't tell if she believed me or not.

"Zach are you fucking kidding, those look like more than a few burns on your arms."

"I had to do it a lot." I lied

"Ok well I believe you..." she said with a forced smile.
