~Trish's pov~

***Chapter 10***

I'm sitting at the Moon's house with Sam, Em, Dan, Jeff, Jordan, Patrick, Josh, Ron, Dez and Jen. We're all sitting in the backyard talking about random things. The conversation dies down and everything is quiet for a minute. "So where are we having the halloween party?" Patrick asks. We all look at one another. "We could have it our place, couldn't we Sam?" Sam shrugs.
"Sounds good to me." Em says and I nod in agreement.
"Actually I think-" Dez starts.
"No one cares freckles." I say cutting him off, some of them laugh. We talk a bit more about the party and we start making decisions about what games we're going to play and what music we're going to listen to. We're so deep into planning that the only thing that makes us stop is my phone ringing. I don't even to read the caller ID to know it's Ally, her ringtone is a specific song, Emma picks up my phone from where it's charging.
"It's Ally." she says tossing me my phone. I answer the call and I almost immediately know something is wrong.
Hey Ally, what's-" She cuts me off.
"Trish?" She asks crying. I sigh.
"Oh Ally, what's wrong?" I ask her, my best friend instincts kicking in. She cries harder.
"Austin kissed Cassidy!" I shake my head and lean back in my chair. I put my hand not holding my phone in my hair.
"Ally, he'd a stupid boy. I'm sure-" she cuts me off again.
"I relapsed Trish, two years gone." She cries hysterically. My breath gets caught in my throat.
"What?" Tears start pooling in my eyes.
"Can you please come help me. I can't do this on my own." She says, her voice quivering and breaking as she speaks.
"Of course honey. Sam's going to bring me okay? My dad had to take the car today." She takes a few deep, heavy breaths.
"Okay." she says quietly.
"We'll be there soon." I end the call and stand. "Sam, get your ass up. We're going to Ally's. Now."

When we get there I go straight to Ally's room, I know she's there because that's where the screaming in coming from. Sam follows me and she seems scared which is weird considering it's Sam. When we get into Ally's room I see something I thought I would never see again and it instantly makes me cry. Ally is standing in front of her full length mirror in only her bra and underwear, she has that old facecloth in her hand and the smell of rubbing alcohol and peroxide burn my nose. She presses the alcohol covered cloth to her leg and she screams, when she pulls the cloth away from her leg there is still a steady stream of blood flowing from her leg. I take a deep breath and walk over to her. I wrap one arm around her and my other hand grabs the cloth from her. She turns to me and puts all of her weight on me, her head falls on my shoulder and her sobs erupt. "Shh honey, it's okay. We'll get through this."
"Ally? What the hell are you doing?" Sam asks coming over to us.
"She's cleaning her cuts. They'll get infected if she doesn't." I snap back. "Sorry, it's just a hard situation." I say to Sam as soon as I realize I snapped at her.
"Trish, it hurts so much! Why did I do this? How could I be so stupid?!" She cries harder.
"I know it hurts, and I know that it wasn't the smartest decision but thats okay. It happened. We can't go back now. Let's just clan the rest okay?" She nods. I get Sam to help me set everything up. We lay a red towel on her bed and we lay her on her bed, on the towel. Sam changes the music to something soothing and I clean the rest of the cuts on her legs. Sam turns it up loudly so the cries of pain Ally makes are drown out. Sam sits beside Ally's head and grabs her hand. She runs her other hand through Ally's hair. I finish the first leg and I put the cloth down. I get up and go to the bathroom. I go to the drawer I know has the bandages in it and I grab what I need. I finish her other leg and bandage both of them up. I start on her hips.
"So Ally, have you ever...um... done this before?" Sam asks nervously, Ally nods.
"I was two years clean." She inhales deeply at the pain and tears roll down her cheeks.
"How many times Ally?" I ask interrupting their conversation.
"I don't know, I stopped counting after a while." I give her a disappointed look.
"So Ally, if you were clean two years why did you do it again?" Sam asks, Ally looks away sadly.
"Austin and Cassidy."
