** Niall POV**

I can't believe what I just saw. Well, Niall, you don't know what exactly happened. She could've just slipped or something right? M-maybe she was... Oh god. Who am I kidding? I just saw my best friend cutting. As I cleaned her fresh wounds I saw some very old scars. Oh my god. How long has she been doing this? Why didn't she just tell me? Niall, calm down. Oh great now I'm talking to myself. "I know how this looks but--", she tried. "Cut the shit, Melinda", I cut her off harshly. "But if you'll just let me explain--". "No", I said. "I don't wanna hear it". Why did she do this? At school she was so... colourful. Like she didn't have a care in the world. But now... How long? What changed? So many diferent questions filled my head and I hated myself for not noticing. What's happening? Why is my vision blurry? Oh great.

**Mels POV**

I hadn't noticed that he was crying until a tear fell onto my arm. "Niall, please", I begged. "What?", he sobbed. "Don't cry for me". "I'm not", he whispered, "I'm crying for your family, and the rest of the boys. What if they found out? How would they react? Why do you do it, Mels? Please. Tell me. Why do you dare harm your body?", he question, looking me deep in the eyes. "Becauseittakesthepainaway", I mumbled in one breath. "What?", he asked. "BECAUSE IT TAKES THE PAIN AWAY, NIALL!!!!!!!", I yelled. He was taken aback by my sudden outburst and I could see the hurt and tears reforming in his eyes. A wave of guilt swepped over me and I instanly regretted it. Why did he have to find out? Why?!? "I'm sorry", I muttered. "S'ok", he mumbled. "No, really, I'm sorry. For everything", I tried again. He remained silent. Why!?!?!?
