⚠️TRIGGER WARNING⚠️

A certain brunette sat in an empty bathtub staring off into the distance. He couldn't think or move, it was as if he was paralyzed. The boy slowly moved his head to look at his wrists, they were covered in a red consistency. He let tears fall silently, how could he? He thought. He had promised his boyfriend that he wouldn't do this again. God Elton was sure to hate him now, Colby thought.
Colby's head immediately shot up to look at the bathroom door at hearing a deep voice.

"Colby!" The brunette recognized the voice as his boyfriends. The door than swung open with a worried Elton entering.

"Colby..." the bearded man rushed over to the brunette taking his hand in his, trying his best not to touch the boy's forearm. Colby fought and hollered trying to yank his arms away. Elton held a firm grip taking the blade away and flushing it.

"NO ELTON! Why would you do that? Goddamn," Colby hit his head on the back of the tub letting streams of tears flow from his eyes.

"Baby why, why would you do this? Prince you promised me you wouldn't do this. You've been 2 years clean baby". Elton picked the younger up and sat him on the sink. He turn the faucet on grabbing his boyfriends scared wrists and began running water on them to stop the flow.

Colby cried looking at his feet, he knew he had promised his lover. And here he was breaking that promise. Elton has finally stopped kissing his old scarred wrists because they were healed, you couldn't notice them unless you looked really really close.

"I'm sorry Elty".

Elton looked up at the boy seeing as he had slipped into headspace, "I know you are baby but-".

Elton choked up on his words, "this is the second time this happened on my watch. I told you to come to daddy if you were having bad thoughts. You can trust me prince, I would never judge or hurt you".

Colby looked up nodding at his lover now feeling even worse. He sat there with a sad puppy dog look on his face, his bottom lip quivering making Elton slightly pout at him. The boy looked absolutely adorable when his lip would quiver, but Elton didn't like when being sad caused him it to.

"Stay here, and do not touch them," he said pointing to the Youngers arms. He poked his belly and walked out hearing a slight giggle escape and smiled at that.

Once Elton returned he had bandage wraps in one hand and peroxide in another. Colby put his head back to we're it hit the mirror behind him. Elton looked up at the boy as he held a cotton ball that had peroxide on it. He gently put it on one wrist.

"Gah! Daddy," Colby cried.

"I know colbs, I know".

Elton finished with both arms and picked the younger up carrying him to his bed. Elton wanted to give the boy some space after this, so he let him sleep in his own bedroom.
Elton laid the boy down and covered him up, making sure to tuck the blanket around him. Seeing Colby liked it that way.

"Goodnight baby boy, I'll see you tomorrow," Elton kissed his forehead. Then he moved down to Colby's bandaged wrists, and kissed each one twice.

"Night daddy," Colby mumbled already dozing off.

Elton walked to the door frame. "I love you," he whispered before shutting the door and leaving.
