Neighbors

Chapter 19

Kay's POV

I woke up around 2 in the morning. I felt lonely, and it seemed empty laying here without Austin.

I just cried and cried. Finally, I thought of something that helped me when i was bullied in high school.

Cutting.

I never risked cutting when I was bring abused by Derek because when he would make me take my cloths off for him, he could see them.

I went to the bathroom and dug up my blades that I always kept with me, just in case.

I dragged the blade against my wrists again and again until I felt a little relief and sat on the cold bathroom tiles crying.

~Next Morning~ (btw she didn't get back to sleep after she cut)

Kay's POV

(9:00 am btw)

I was now downstairs in the kitchen drinking coffee with my Obey hoodie on, covering up my cuts.

Cam came in and stated making coffee for himself, not making eye contact with me. Nash also came in and sat next to me.

"Aren't you hot in that? It's almost 94° out?" Nash laughed.

"Nope." I said popping the "p."

Cam came and sat down and we all stated silent, my mind wandering to Austin.

I need to talk to him. You know what? I'm just going next door right now. I can't stand him being mad at me and I need to make things right. Like Austin said, when you're in a relationship, you need to keep promises.

When I arrived at his house I knocked on the door.

When he opened it, he looked to the ground and said, "What?"

Austin's POV

"What?" I asked.

"Austin, I'm so sorry. I know I should have told you but I was scared. I know I should have kept that promise but every time I got a message I would panic." she cried.

I noticed that she kept pulling her sleeves down.

Wait. Sleeves? She's wearing a hoodie in 90° weather?

"Can you please forgive me?" at this point she was basically balling her eyes ouy.

"Come here baby, it's okay." I said, pulling her in for a hug and kissing her forehead while rubbing circles on her back to calm her down.

She hugged me tighter than ever, crying into my shirt.

She pulled away, i cupped her face in my hands, wiped her tears with my thumbs, and kissed her long and passionately.

"Can I ask you one thing?"

She nodded.

"Why are you wearing a hoodie in this weather?"

"Ummm...I-I got cold." she stuttered.

She's definitely lying.

"Tell me the truth." I said.

She just stood there looking at the ground.

I grabbed her arm and pulled up the sleeve.

I couldn't believe this.

I grabbed the other arm and saw the same thing.

"Why?" I asked, looking into her eyes.

She started tearing up.

"Did I make you do this?"

Now I feel so horrible. She cut because of me. I should have stayed with her and talk things through but no. I had to over react.

"Cam too." she cried.

"Kay. I'm so sorry. I will never make you feel like you have to do this again."

"Don't be sorry, it's my fault all if this happened anyway."

I just hugged her, and hugged her, and hugged her. I didn't want to let go. I felt horrible.

"Can we go lay in the couch? I didn't get much sleep last night." she asked.

I lead her to the couch and held her on my lap as she fell asleep.
