Chapter Two: The First Cuts Are The Deepest

Cody walked into the suite expecting Zack to be on the couch watching TV. Zack wasn't watching TV, Zack wasn't even in the suite. A rush of fear and horror rushed into Cody's thoughts. Did Zack really kill his self? At once the door to the suite flew open and a very tired looking Zack walked in.

"Do you know how bad you scared me just now?" Cody asked as Zack shut the door.

"Cody, don't act like you even worried about me, we know you didn't.

"Yes I did, Zack, I love you. I'm sorry if I haven't showed it enough lately." Cody apologized and hugged his brother.

"I'm soory too, Maddie is on her way up to cook for us." Zack said as Maddie entered the room.

"Talk about the caregiver." Cody smiled.

Within three hours, Zack and Cody were eating.

"How is everything? How are you two holding up?" Maddie asked taking a bite.

"Lonely, Sad, Bored..."

"Pissed Off." Zack interrupted Cody.

Tears fill Zack's eyes as he looks back up.

"How could she just leave? We still need her so much and she abandoned us! Why?" Zack cried.

"Zack, I'm sorry sweetie, I shouldn't have mentioned it." Maddie said taking Zack into her arms.

"Everything will be okay. It will be better soon." Maddie tried to comfort Zack.

"No Maddie, No it won't. So don't lie to him." Cody said as tears fell down his face. He walked to the counter.

"Maddie I need you. I feel like your all I have." Zack cried.

"Where does that leave me?" Cody asked dryly from across the room.

"Cody, I didn't mean it like that. I meant other than you. I need you too." Zack assured him.

Zack soon calmed, and Maddie left for home.

"I'm going to shower." Cody said walking into the bathroom.

"Hmm." Zack responded.

Cody enters the bathroom as tears of anger sadness and fear run down his face. He had been preparing for something since 5th period at school. He pulled broken piece of glass from his pocket. He pulled his shirt off and looked at it. He was so mad. He begin slashing his arm. Lightly at first, then hard. Soon twelve gashes leaked blood down his arm. It hurt, yet it felt right. Without warning Zack entered the bathroom.

"What are doing? Why?" He yelled.

"It really helps. It eases the pain. Maybe you should try it." Cody said handing Zack the piece of glass. Zack looked at Cody then pulled his sleeve up and begin cutting. After only seven times Zack dropped the glass. His blood run freely as well.

"Your right Cody, It does help." Zack whispered and picked up the piece of glass again.
