An Unexpected Love

Brittany’s POV
I giggled as Ashley and I went to Avery’s car. I opened the trunk and found all my clothes and a couple other of my things. I pulled out a couple of bags and so did Ashley. My phone went off for like the thousandth time, but I ignored it.
“Shouldn’t you answer that?” I looked at Ashley.
“Nope. I’m carrying bags right now and I really have my hands full, Ashy.” He smirked, leaned down, and connected his lips to mine. I smiled into the kiss and pulled away. “We better keep going before Avery says something in her way of sarcasm to CC.” I laughed quietly at the thought of CC and Avery together. They would make a good match, but Avery had been hurt by members of bands to much in the past. I sighed. She really should just give him a chance.
“Why are you sighing?”
“Just thinking about Avery.”
“Ah.” We walked past one of the doors and I could hear Avery shouting a string of profanities. I laughed.
“Seems like there is finally someone who is able to kick her ass in video games.” We got to what I guess was Ashley’s door, considering he had put my bags down and was digging in his pockets for some keys. We got inside and he dropped my bags next to the door.
“Just set your stuff there for now. I’m getting myself a beer. Want one?”
“Yeah sure.” I sat down on his black couch, which was made of some kind of soft material. He also had a chair made of the same thing. I looked around and saw a T.V and a table. It was a nice place. I pulled out my phone and realized the reason it had been going off so much. Twitter. I opened it up and realized it was all because of that tweet with CC.
‘Ugly bitch. Stay away from him.’
‘y the fuck is she with them? Shes fat and ugly.’
There were pleanty more, and I felt my eyes go wide from all of the hate I was getting. That’s when I read the one post.
‘@CountryEmoGirl, do u like, cut or something? Y r u wearing long sleeves in this weather? Ugly bitch.’

I cracked. I heard his voice, I heard her voice. Both of them saying the same thing as the people on here, so why shouldn’t I believe it?

“Ashley?” He came back with two beers in his hands.

“Yeah?”

“Where’s the bathroom?” He pointed down the hallway. I thanked him and soon found it. I shut and locked the door, then started to dig around. “Come on, come on. There has to be something sharp!” That’s when I found it. A broken razor, sitting right in front of me. I pulled the blade out and pulled up my sleeve.

Ashley’s POV

I saw Brittany had left her phone. I picked it up to plug it in, and saw what I never wanted to see. I realized I had to get to her quickly. I dropped her phone and went to the bathroom as fast as I could. The door was locked of course, so I banged on it.

“Brittany!”

Brittany’s POV

I pushed the blade down and drug it across my skin. I felt the pain, and the voices lessened but didn’t go away. I made another, deeper then the first, and smiled. Maybe I would finally have the courage to just do it, to end it forever. I heard Ashley banging on the door, but I ignored him and made another, then another cut. That’s when the door banged open. I looked over, and found Ashley standing there, worry plain on his face. He looked at my arm. And I looked at it myself, seeing the blood running down it. I felt a pair of hands, being gentle, and started to clean the cuts.

“Ashley…I-I…”

“Shh. It’s ok.” He looked into my eyes, then back down at my arm.

“No it’s not. I’m ugly. These scars prove it. I don’t deserve you. You deserve to be with someone beautiful.” He looked at me, and then brought my arm up to his lips. He kissed the palm of my hand, and then all my fingers.

“You are beautiful,” he murmured against my skin. “And whoever told you different was wrong.”

“Then what about the scars? Don’t you think anything of them?” He smiled at me.

“I think the prove how tough you are. You have had a tough life, and these scars prove that. The fact you are alive means you have won.” I felt the tears slide down my face.

“I…I think it is time to tell you about me. About why I am this way.”
