Part 1 of Chapter 6
I threw open the door of the car before it stopped completely, sprinting towards Seto's front door. I pounded on it, jiggling the knob and finding it locked. "Dangit, Seto!" I shouted. "Open up!"
Tyler followed slowly, still grumbling under his breath, and yanked out a key, fumbling with it before slowly turning the lock.
I shoved past him, squinting to see through the dim light. A faint crying was heard, but I couldn't tell where it came from. "Seto?" I called and the sobbing stopped immediately.
"Brice?" Two bloodshot, but still gorgeous as always, brown eyes blinked at me from the shadows, fluttering the damp lashes. "You came.."
"Of course I did.." I shot Tyler a warning look and the boy nodded solemnly, leaving and closing the door behind him.
"Seto baby, what's wrong?" I cooed, taking small steps towards the boy. He was clearly terrified, like a lost child, and I didn't want to scare him anymore.
"Bri..." He sniffled once more, making grabby motions at me with his hands. I sat down beside him, throwing an arm around the quivering boy's shoulders and he instantly relaxed, sinking into my hold. He was gripping his wrist tightly, covering it with a cloth.
"Baby, what happened?" I murmured, moving the cloth away and revealing the fresh cuts. "Baby, why did you hurt yourself?"
"T-they don't need me...N-nobody cares..." He hiccuped, looking down in shame.
