Save Me

Let Me Help You

A/N: This is a very dark chapter and there is a big trigger warning.

Alex's POV

After our movie I went back into my room to get ready for my shower. I walked into the kitchen and slowly stopped at the corner of the wall to watch Tobin. She looked so upset.  I could see the tears streaming down her face as she looked at her phone. Seeing her like this broke my heart.

I was about to walk over to her, but she quickly dropped her phone and ran strait into the bathroom and locked the door. I didn't really know what to do. I could hear silent sobs coming from the bathroom. I quickly picked up her phone and tried to see what made her so upset. She had no password surprisingly, so I quickly scrolled through her last texts, finding one from someone named Perry that said her dad just died.

Oh my god, her dad died. I need to go find her now! I neared the bathroom door to be met with the sound of heavy cries. I gently knocked on the door and said, "Tobin I can hear your crying, what's wrong? Please come out."

"Alex just please fuck off! I don't need you right now!", she yelled through the door.

I heard her whimper in pain. Shit! I need to get in there now! I ran to my bedroom to get a bobby pin. I quietly snuck back to the door so she wouldn't hear me.

"I hate myself", I could hear Tobin whisper then was followed by another whimper of pain.

I quickly jammed the bobby pin in the lock, unlocking the door. I swung the door open and quickly stepped inside.

Tobin was sitting on the ground, her back against the sink, blood flowing freely from her cut wrist. I stood there in shock. Why would someone so beautiful so this to herself? I had no words.

Finally I came to my senses and quickly dropped to my knees to help her. She wouldn't even look at me. She just sat with a blank expression, looking start ahead.

"Tobin! Tobin please! I need to help you!", I yelled trying to snap her out of her state.

Tears flowed down her face like the blood flowing from her forearms. I jumped up and quickly opened the drawers looking for anything to stop the bleeding. I found a huge pack of medical gauze and other things.

I ripped it open and grabbed all the gauze and dropped down to Tobin's level. I gently grabbed her wrists one by one placing gauze and then wrapping them with medical wrap.

She didn't cut deep enough to go to the hospital. Once I was done I pulled her into my arms. She was limp in my grip. She wouldn't even speak.

"Tobin... Please. I'm here for you, I promise", I softly whisper while running my fingers through her hair.

After a while she slowly tried to sit up, but was dizzy and look like she was in so much pain, but not from her wrists.

"Tobin, I know your in a lot of pain. Please let me see, I want to help you, but you have to let me in.", I cooed.

She looked up at me with her cloudy brown eyes let out a soft sob. "I can't", She whispered.

"Hey, look at me. I'm never going to leave no matter what. You can trust me with anything", I said while looking right into her soft brown eyes.

She released another soft sob and she slowly tried to take off her t-shirt. She whimpered in pain again so I very gently and slowly picked her up bridal style and carried her to her room, placing her softly into the edge of the bed.
