Over The Horizon

Chapter 5

Oliver's POV

Justin stopped by later in the day, but we ended up arguing again.

"OLIVER STOP DOUBTING YOURSELF!"

"SHUT UP JUSTIN!"

"NOT UNTIL YOU STOP CALLING YOURSELF ALL THAT TERRIBLE SHIT THATS NOT EVEN TRUE!"

"IT IS TRUE!"

I must've pissed Justin off. Next thing I knew, he was going with what I was saying.

"YOU KNOW WHAT," he screamed. "YOU'RE RIGHT. HOW 'BOUT THAT!? YOU ARE A STUPID, WEAK BITCH WHO SHOULD'VE DIED THAT DAY! HOW DOES IT FEEL TO HAVE SOMEONE AGREE WITH YOUR DOUBTS!?"

Tears flooded my eyes. I covered my mouth, shocked Justin would say this to me.

He must've seen the sadness in my eyes. "Ollie I'm-"

"Get out, Justin." I demanded.

He ran out the door, probably crying. I ran up the stairs and ran straight to my room. I looked around. Where was it? I thought. Then I saw it- the blade. I took it in my hand and began to cut deep, diagnal lines on my left arm. Blood dripped to the floor. I cried and the tears fell from my face, onto my bleeding arm.

The cuts burned. I put on a black hoodie and went back downstairs. My foster mom, Brit, was home from the store.

"There you are!" She said excitedly. She must have noticed the sadness in my eyes.

"What's wrong?"

"M-me and Justin got into a fight..." I stuttered. Brit took my cut arm. I winced.

"Oliver..." Her hand was slightly red from the hoodie. The blood bled through. She pulled up the sleave and covered her mouth. "OLIVER! WHY?!"

I looked down. I began to cry. Brit got bandages and wrapped them around my bleeding arm after cleaning it.

I explained to her about what our fight was about.

"Oliver," she said. "You are not what you say you are. It wasn't Justin keeping you alive. It was-"

"Brit I stayed alive for him. I need him!"

"See? You have a reason to live! I guess it was Justin keeping you alive... you needed to stay alive to keep him... him."

I nodded. There was a knock on the door. Brit went to answer it.

I looked at my arm. It hurt a lot. I wiped the tears out of my eyes and looked yo see who was at the door.

Of course, it was Justin.

"Ollie..." his voice cracked.

"Justin..." I said, slightly a whisper.

He walked over to me and hugged me. I hugged him tightly and cried.

"I'm so so SO sorry." I said.

"No," he said, petting my hair. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't say shit like that..."

I took his arm. He winced and shut his eyes tightly. I lift the sleave of his black sweater up and almost cried. As I lifted the sleave, I saw an E, then a I, followed by L, L, O.

Ollie...

He cut my name into his arm, followed by over a dozen diagnal lines up his arm.
