what's going on?

inspired by scotty sires song.

what's going on?

sam remembered asking colby endlessly when he arrived at sam's apartment door asking to stay the night.

it was marked as worrisome to sam. colby had quietly knocked on his door at one in the morning with bruises littering his face and scratches on his arms.

he had received a small smile and a shake of his friends head, 'don't worry.'

is anything wrong?

sam asked his best friend the sixth time colby showed up at his door.

he cleaned the scratches on colby's arms and cheek, handing him carmex for his busted lip.

colby waved him off with a weak smile, saying it was nothing and that sam still shouldn't worry.

are you okay? be honest

sam yelled at his best friend, gripping at his hair for nothing more than a quick second. him yelling about how he can't help if colby won't tell him what's going on.

'don't worry about it.' colby had said with a soft tone, exhaustion finally taking it's toll; feeling guilty from hiding something like this from his friend.

how do i tell anyone else if i don't know myself?

a sudden gush of pain jolted throughout colby's body. his stomach ached, his arms lost tension and his legs began to weaken.

his tongue was soaked in the taste of blood. bruised and winded, with an arm in agony, he grabbed the foot of brennen and pulled him to the ground. his head was pounding. he brought a fist to the face of his old friend, snapping his nose into a grotesquerie.

'stop! stop using sam to keep me quiet! fuck you, brennen!' colby had screamed through the pain stabbing through his forearm, fading to an ache when it reached his shoulder.

what's going on?

colby didn't fully remember why brennen had begun fighting him. he didn't fully recollect when their friendship had shattered into tiny glass shards, leaving nothing but violence and abuse in the cardboard.

he didn't know what was happening or why it happened. he only knew he had to visit sam each night make sure he was okay, even if it meant being rushed to the hospital for a broken arm with sam finally demanding the truth.
