Tainted Love

"He will," said Sammy.

Adam gave a small smile before moving away, sitting back on the floor as he wiped the tears off his face.

Sammy sighed "I should go check on them again soon...."

"Is...he okay?" Adam asked quietly.

Sammy shook her head. "He hurt himself again..."

Adam swore and put his head in his hands again.

It's not because of you Adam," said Sammy. "Take from someone who's been there."

"Oh no, it's not my fault at all...especially when he's done it right after what happened..." Adam mumbled.

"Adam..." said Sammy with a sighed. "Self harm, it's about self hatred, not what you did."

Adam frowned but nodded slowly.

"When you're ready to talk to them," said Sammy. "I'll come with you."

"Okay..." Adam said quietly, nodding slowly.

"Everything will be okay Bear," said Sammy.

"What...what if it's not...?" Adam asked quietly.

"It will be," said Sammy softly. "It will be."

Adam sighed and put his head in his hands, trying not to start crying again.

Sammy pulled Adam close again.

"Sorry..." Adam mumbled, leaning against her.

"Don't," said Sammy softly "It's okay."

"No it's not." Adam mumbled, sniffing as he wiped some of the tears away.

"Yes it is Addy," said Sammy.

Adam went quiet, not moving from where he was was until he'd stopped crying a few minutes later. He kissed Sammy's cheek before slowly standing.

Sammy stood up as well.

Adam hugged Sammy, then wiped his face, slowly looking around at the mess he'd made.

"I'll help you clean it up," said Sammy softly.
