Trigger warning of self harm and cnc.
They had met through mutual friends. They were at the same party and he had walked in on her in the bathroom. This was the beginning of a very intense yet loving relationship and dynamic.
She was sitting on the edge of the bathtub with her head down and focused. She had forgot to lock the door and so he was able to walk right in. He startled her so much she jumped up, and started shoving a bunch of stuff into her bag. He assumed she was using and did not want to get involved. But then he noticed her eyes were red and she was crying. He grabbed her arm and said, “Hey, are you ok?” She immediately ripped her arm from his grasp and started to ball up toilet paper to hold to her arm. He looked down and his hand was covered in blood. Startled, he said, “What the fuck”, under his breath and looked at her. She said, “I’m sorry”, and tried to push past him to leave the bathroom. He grabbed her other arm and wouldn’t let her leave.
