// Sean's P.O.V //
I woke up and Mark wasn't there. It hurt to move, remembering the previous night. A little flustered, I got up and saw the bathroom light was the only light on. Rubbing my tired eyes, I stepped towards the door.
"Mark…?"
I heard sniffling but no reply. I knocked on the door lightly.
"Mark? If you're there, if you can hear me; say something, please."
"Wh-Why do you care..?"
"Mark, open up."
Surprisingly, the door was unlocked. I turned the cold handle and pushed open the door. My eyes widened at the horror: blood on the floor, broken glass in the sink, a glass of whiskey, pills, and Mark with bloody arms. By bloody arms, I mean, shoulder to wrist. His arms littered with deep cuts.
Mark was gripping a pill bottle and a shard of glass. I rushed over to him but he pushed me away.
"Mark! Mark, what happened?"
"Nothin'…"
His eyes were red and puffy, obviously from crying. I took the bottle of pills and the shard out of Mark's hands. He tried to get them back, but I wouldn't let him. Eventually he stopped trying, so I set the items down. I gently put my hand on his shoulder.
"Mark…"
He shoved me away. I felt hurt not to be able to help my lover.
"Let me fix my own fuckin' problems…"
"Mark, we're close. I'm with you most of the day - everyday. Ple-!"
"NO! You don't know how I feel! And you don't know what I'm going through!"1097Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Y0lSUrLlD
I flinched at the hurtful words flung at me. I could feel tears prick in my eyes as he got up and shoved me aside. My back hit the wall as he stormed off to his room. But before shutting the door, I heard him yell back at me.1097Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVIG30y3OY
"Sometimes I feel like you want me dead!"1097Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiOl5pAS1v
Then I heard the door slam. Accompanied by the click of the door locking. Slumping down the wall, I tucked my head in my chest and hugged my knees.1097Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSpOEjBA0n
It took hours for me to gather up the courage to knock on the door1097Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8lXSrTCaBR
After hours of painful silence and separation, I got up. I trudged over to the door, afraid to even say a word.1097Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKleEtE8A1U

I knocked and the door opened. I could feel the comfort of Mark's arms around me as I was pulled into the embrace. Now in his arms, I broke and buried my face into his shoulder. I heard his calming words whispered in my ear.1097Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaw6zucof9
"You'll stay alive, no need to cry. Baby please, come to me, it's only a bad dream.."1097Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNAtgqZyEK
The words echoed in my head, as if they were engraved there now. I felt a sudden feeling of happiness.1097Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyemQisBHx
"I'm sorry Sean, I really am. I should've told you what was wrong…"1097Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGttAge8pc3
I put a hand to his cheek and pecked his lips. I didn't care if it wasn't a good time for that, but every second of the day isn't worth it knowing your loved one isn't okay. 1097Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDLcFEzOIk
