Partners in Crime

Jacks POV

Alex came back 2 hours later.
For some reason this made me really happy that he didn't run off.
"How did it go?" I asked.
"Okay. She's just really upset." He said and sat next to me on the sofa.
I looked at him and he was messing with a phone.
"What that?" I asked.
"Her phone. Apparently she recorded something on here but I've been looking through it as I walked back and trust me its not what I was expecting to find on a 15 year olds phone." He said.
"Wait she's 15!? Alex you shouldn't be seeing her." I said.
"For Christ sake Jack. I'm gay and I wouldn't go after under aged girls even if I was straight. She is a friend. A friend which Jacob was close to, a friend who came to me asking for help." He said and glared at me.
"She's a suspect Alex. Once they find out you have had contact with her they will think you had something to do with Jacobs death!" I said.
"She's invisible to the world. No one has been there for her since she was 10 years old!" Alex shouted at me And stood up.
"That might be true but when they find put she will go through hell! Do you want her to go through all of that again!" I shouted at him.
"You don't understand the meaning of hell." He growled.
"And you do." I scoffed.
Alex looked at me hurt.
"I thought you was fucking different. I thought you fucking cared. This world is more hateful than what I thought it is." He said quietly and walked off.
"Alex wait." I said and the bathroom door slammed shut.
I sighed and sat down.

Alex had been in the bathroom for nearly am hour and I was worried.
I got up and went ton the bathroom.
"Alex. Alex open up, I'm sorry what I said I didn't mean it." I said and knocked on the door.
I didn't get a response.
" Alex? Alex you still in there?" I asked and opened the door which wasn't locked which surprised me.
I walked in and saw Alex sat in the bath covered in blood.
"Alex what did you do?" I asked and knelt by the bath and started to clean him up.
"They were right." He sniffed.
"Who was right about what?" I asked.
"My parents. They said that no one could ever love a fucked up person like me. That I'm better off dead." He said and looked away from me.
"They are so wrong Alex. So so wrong." I said and made him look at me.
"No their not. I thought you cared. Thought you was different than all the other people who have been in my life. I was wrong." He said and pulled his arm away from me.
"Lex listen to me. I do care, I am different from those people. When I'm angry or trying g to prove a point I say the first thing which cones to my head. I'm so sorry that I said that. Please forgive me." I said.
Alex looked at me.
He nodded and looked down and put his arm back into my hand.
"Let's get you cleaned up and you can go to bed and watch shit films." I said.
Alex nodded.
I smiled and carried on cleaning his arm up.
