~ A Bully Or Something More ~ (Michael Afton x Reader) (DISCONTINUED)

~ Y/n's POV ~

I was about ready to fall asleep when I noticed Michael's slightly bloody bandages around his arms under his black fingerless gloves.

I was surprised I didn't notice it before because the bandages honestly looked pretty old. So with that I sat up.

Y/n: "Michael?"

Michael: "Hm?"

Michael now sits up as well

Y/n: "Do you ever change them"

Michael: "Change what?"

Y/n: "You know"

I reach for his arms which he quickly pulls his arms away

Michael: "It's just for style ok"

Y/n: *disappointedly says* "Michael"

Michael: *sighs* "No...I don't..."

Y/n: "Let me see them then

Michael: "Please be careful"

He looks down and let's me take his arms so I remove the gloves and unwrap the bandages. To my surprise there was a lot of layers and each layer I removed revealed even more bloody bandages.

I eventually get all the layers removed revealing some deep cuts clearly done with a knife on his arms and wrists.

Under closer inspection the cuts were fresh and bleeding still. The blood was basically spread all over his arms like all he did was press the bandages over them then left them. Luckily the cuts weren't bleeding that much since all the bandages soaked up the majority of it.

~ Michael's POV ~

Y/n: "I didn't know you cut yourself"

Michael: "I don't..."

Y/n: "Michael you can't make up an excuse this time because I can clearly tell these are clearly done with a knife because there's no way a fight or any other way of injury could make cuts that clean or deep unless you do it yourself"

Michael: .....

Y/n: "However you hide it very well under the multiple bandages so it doesn't bleed through. Do you do this because you don't want anyone to know?"

Michael: "Maybe..."

Y/n: "Awww Mikey"

Michael: "Please don't say anything about this to anyone not even your father"

Y/n: "I was about to say I won't you clearly don't want people to know about it so you have my word"

Michael: "Thank you"

Y/n: "However that's not gonna stop me from helping you"

Michael: "No! I'm fine! You don't need to do that!"

Y/n: "I know, but I want too"

Michael: "No!"

She doesn't listen and she lets my arms go then starts to leave the room
