I gasped but then put on my pest poker face and walked up to Troye, closing the door on my way. I hugged him as he cried into my shirt, I didn’t care that he was leaving tear stains on my shirt or possibly even blood. I haven’t known Troye long but in the short time we’ve known each other I feel as if we have been best friends for years, he is like the little brother I never had. I regained composure and pulled away, I opened the medicine cabinet and pulled out bandages and a wet cloth. I gently grabbed Troyes wrist and cleaned it with the wet cloth, I then covered it with a light layer of alcohol and then wrapped it in a small bandage, not wanting to put on the sticky bandages in case he’s allergic.  I did the same to the opposite wrist and gave him another hug. “Do you have any more cuts?” I asked him. He nodded and lifted his shirt to expose more cuts along his sides, these ones longer and a bit deeper.

I looked at them and realized I had silent tears coming from my eyes. I cleaned them too, this time with even more care as the blood was dried and old. Only when all the cuts were cleaned I noticed how many he had, how many scars lined his body. “Here, take of your shirt” I instructed him, he did so with my help. It had blood dried on it so I put it in a washing pile and went to the door. I opened it slightly and stuck my head out, everyone was waiting at the door “Could you please pass me one of Troyes clean shirts?” I asked no one in particular. Zoe nodded and went to get one, she soon returned with a black shirt. “Thankyou” I said and closed the door.

I walked back over to Troye and gave him the shirt, I helped him put it on and he cried some more. I rubbed his back and soon I was also silently crying. He then looked up from the hug and dried his eyes. He was soon no longer crying, instead he was just occasionally sniffling. “I-I’m sorry, and thank you” He said. “It’s ok” I smiled, “Do you want to tell me why you do it?” I asked. He nodded and we sat on the edge of the bath.

“The hate, it’s just too much. I do it because it’s like a, uhh, stress reliever. I had stopped for a while but when I got out of the meeting earlier today people came up to me. They said I was a gay piece of shit and I couldn’t sing. They said ‘Go kill yourself, it would be music to my ears’” He had tears running down his checks now. I simply sat there shocked. “That’s horrible” I said, “Ohh Troye, I’m so sorry, don’t listen to them. Your fine and your very talented.” I hugged him once more, “Ugh, I’m so mad at them now” And I truly was. “Thankyou Amanda” Troye said, I patted his back in acknowledgement. “I think I’m going to go have a nap now, I’m really tired.” He said. “Wait, Troye, next time just talk to me, please don’t do this again” I said. He nodded his head and walked out. I followed him out the bathroom and watched him go into his room.

“Troye self-harms, he was getting a lot of hate today” I said quietly, so only Joe, Zoe and Alfie could hear. They all looked shocked but didn’t say anymore except lots of ‘Ohs’ and ‘That’s horrible.’ I dried my checks from the remaining tears and followed everyone to the lounge.

~Later That Night~

Joe flopped onto the bed next to me, “I feel so bad for Troye” he said. “Yea, he’s such a nice guy as well” I said as I snuggled up to Joe. He kissed me goodnight as I felt sleep over come me.
