Will POV

I swear I almost fell when Carla hurled herself onto me. Gosh this girl can't get a hint.=

I looked back to see Ryū staring at us with his head cocked to the left. He looked kinda cute.

Carla was still clinging to me like a safety jacket and looked back to see what I was looking at.

" Will what are you looking at? There's nothing there." Nothing there! Nothing there? Is she kidding? All I see is a hurt adorable guy at the back of the class staring at us.

" Nothing", I replied with a blank expression. " Nothing at a-

BEEEEEP. The whole room went quiet. I frowned. A morning announcement? Now? A little late if you ask me?

DUE TO CONSTRUCTION ON THE MAIN BUILDING SCHOOL IS NOW DISMISSED

Wait WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAT? LET'S GO SCHOOL'S OVER! This is the best day off my life! I looked back to see Ryū with a blank face. He wasn't moving for like 2 minutes, he finally got up and quietly left the room. UGH why does he have to leave now?

"Ryū, wait", I said running down the halls. He looked back at me.

"Where are you going?" He looked at me weirdly and rolled his eyes. What the frick did I do wrong?

" I'm going home dumbass."

" Ouch. Watch the words", I said with fake hurt. He rolled his eyes again, and started to run. I grinned and ran up to catch up to him.

" U-ugh, why- d-do you r-run so f-fast?" He smirked at me and slowed down. I grasped on to his arm and he flinched like crazy and pulled back harshly. I tripped and tumbled to the ground.

" What the hell?"

" I don't like being touched like at all". I frowned. From the ground I could see bandages. And they were soaked through with blood.

" Ryū, what's that on your arm?" He gave me a panicked look and sighed.

" I can't tell you..."

I gave him a 'just tell me or I'll pester you until you do' look. He shook his head. God he was stubborn.

" Fine but not here. I don't trust this school at all."

" Where do you want go then?" He thought for a moment and turned to me.

" We can go to my apartment complex. If that's fine with you." I looked at him for a moment and nodded my head. I knew better than to ask about his parents and if they were Ok with it. I already knew he didn't have any.

And with that we headed to his apartment. We walked in silence for a good 10 minutes before arriving to an oddly fancy building. We took the elevator and walked down the hall to the left. His room number was 789.

He opened the door and I was shrouded in darkness. I blinked a bit to get used to it.

This is what it looks like

It was a mess in only source of light was a desktop computer. Clothes were thrown everywhere and dust was collecting in the corners.

" Ryū,... what is this?"

He glared at me with his black eye which sent shivers down my spine. Why was he so cold?

" This Will is were I live. now don't you dare comment on it, I hate it as much as you do. Anyways you wanted to know about my bandages well here you go."He proceeded at removing his sweatshirt and shirt. I blushed a bit at the sight. He wasn't that bad looking. I blinked and focused on the bandages covering his whole upper torso. What the fuck? I looked up to see him remove his head bandage. I My mouth opened slightly gaping at was rather a horrid sight, but I won't explain it to you since it was extremely disturbing. Guess this is what he was talking about earlier this morning

All the wrappings were soaked through with blood. It looked fresh too. My eyes went to a frown. Not of disappointment but more of concern.

" What's happening to you?", I said my mouth still gaping at Ryū's torso. He walked towards me slowly and reached up. he gently closed my mouth. I blushed at the sudden action.

" Years of abuse, self harm, and bullies. Years of being unwanted in this world and trying to disappear from it. YEARS OF SHEDDING TEARS ALONE WITHOUT ANYONE NOTICING OR GIVING A FUCK!" He was glaring and slightly crying now. He fell silent so I walked forward and hugged him.

" W-what are you doing", he asked in a fearful voice.

" I'm hugging you idiot. What you said isn't true. You're not alone. "

"What?", He looked at me in disbelief.
