I'll Keep A Secret If You Keep Me Guessing

Alex's p.o.v

"Who did this to you?" I asked carefully. I watched Jack look away from me and tense up. I looked Jack up and down. He had bruises and dashes everywhere. As I looked down his arm, I could see new and old cuts. I gasped, standing up and walking over to Jack.

"Jack," I whispered, looking up and down his arm. I never knew he did this. Why would he hurt himself like this?

"Why did you do this?" I asked, looking up at Jack. He had a tear in his eye and I could tell he was fighting it. He gulped, bringing his arm away and putting it under the hospital blanket. I felt angry and sadness in my body.

"Fine, you don't have to tell me. But please, please tell me who hurt you?" I pleaded, wishing Jack would just give in. I looked at him deeply.

"Please." I whispered. Jack puffed a big breath out, closing his eyes.

"My dad." He finally let out. I blinked, taking in what he just said. Did he just say his dad did this? I'm gonna kill him.

"What a fucking bastard, I'm gonna fucking murder him." I said, running my hand through my hair.

"N-No, please don't, Alex," Jack begged, his hand quickly coming out from the bed. He grabbed my hoodie sleeve and pulled me forward.

"Please don't tell anyone. Not even the police or doctors, no one " Jack sniffed, bringing me into a hug. I sighed, hugging him back softly. He smelled nice. Oh, okay then.

I pulled back from the hug and just starred at Jack. He has been hiding so much. I felt like an idiot being so oblivious from it. Oblivious to the bruise that was on his hand. The dash across his cheek. God, I hate myself right now.

"I won't Jack, I promise you. But I swear to god, if he hurts you again, I'm letting you move in with me." I warned and then kissed him on the lips. I moved a little closer so I had better excess. Jack kissed me back, his hands tendering through my hair. I smiled into the kiss, starting to lick Jack's bottom lip. Damn, I don't know what made me do this, but thank you to whatever did. Jack opened his mouth a little bit before opening it enough for my tongue to adventure. I really really really like the taste of Jack, no matter how much I will tell myself I don't like Jack, there's no denying it. My tongue explored Jack's mouth before Jack shyly started fighting with my tongue. He was so cute when he was shy.

Moments later, I had to pull away for some air. No matter how much I liked that, it still felt the slightest but weird. I think it felt weird because I haven't done that with another boy. Boy, I'm glad Jack is my first male I have ever kissed.

"I uh," I scratched the back of my neck, feeling embarrassed and awkward. Jack chuckled, shaking his head.

"It's okay, I enjoyed it." He said quietly. I blushed, looking down Jack's blanket covered chest. I watched it rise up and down steadily. There was suddenly a knock at the door. I frowned, shouting a come in. A doctor opened the door, wearing a strange smile. I looked at Jack a little, watching his smile turn into a frown.

"Um, Gaskarth? Is it okay if you leave, visiting hours are finished and I have to ask Jack some important questions." The doctor asked nicely. I pouted a little and turned to Jack. He was wearing the same face as me, but his looked cute.

"I'm sorry, Jack. I'll come back tomorrow." I said sadly, but smiled at him and leaned up. I walked out Jack's door, a happy but sad feeling in my gut.
