A Match Into Water

I looked down to the floor of the bathroom as I saw Vic's younger brother stoop down and hold me in his arms telling me that it's alright. That everything was ok.

"Alisha, are you alright?" Mike spoke quietly and softly so that Vic wouldn't hear.

"E...erm yeah" I was confused.

"I know" Mike looked straight into my eyes as my head snapped up off the floor to look into his.

"What do you mean you know?" I held my breath as I waited on a reply.

"Well...it's like erm" He tried to avoid answering my question but I wasn't having none of it.

"Mike please just tell me" I pleaded with and pulled out my deadliest weapon, my puppy dog eyes.

Mike let out a sigh as he explained.

"Well, Vic didn't tell me if that's what you are worried about. I'm a people watcher, before Vic knew you I already knew. I know your depressed, you self harm and that your suicidal and that's why you was in hospital and I now know that you purge and worry about your weight and that's why your doing this now so Vic wouldn't realise your skipping meals. I just haven't figured out why yet"

I burst into tears as I absorbed everything that Mike had just said. I began to remember all of my past. The memories flooded my mind and I pushed myself away from Mike and crawled to the corner of the room and helplessly cried be louder than I thought.

I heard Vic begin to move in his room as no doubt he came to investigate what the sounds were. I panicked as I thought that Mike would tell Vic about my purging.

"Mike, Mike please don't tell Vic he doesn't know about my eating disorder. I will tell him soon when he is better please" I begged Mike as I cried harder.

Mike nodded his head as I sat in the corner crying holding my legs close to my chest rocking back and forth.

Vic opened the door cautiously as he didn't know who was inside and what they was doing.

As I saw Vic I stopped silent crying, he rushed over to me and pulled me up off the floor and pulled me into his embrace whilst hugging me tight smoothing over her hair.

He looked at Mike and spoke inn an agitated tone "What's happened?!?!"

I instantly panicked as I looked over at Mike waiting to hear his reply.

Mike shrugged his shoulders and spoke calmly.

"I don't know I just came in to use the bathroom and I saw her crying just before you came in. I didn't get a change to ask what was wrong"

"Hmm alright, it's nice to know you want to look after Alisha as much as I do" Vic spoke however he didn't sound too convinced.

Vic pulled me into his room and put me into his bed with him following shortly after.

"Alisha what's wrong?" Vic pulled me back into him embrace so we was cuddling.

I don't know what to do. Should I tell him everything or not? I don't want to loose the only thing that is keeping me going.

Notes

Sorry it's a bit on the short side....sorry for mistakes.

Oooo Mike knows everything but the trigger.....but will he tell Vic?

Will Alisha lie or tell Vic the truth?

Leave me your predictions...I'd love to know what you all think and what is going off in your head!
