TW:

(Logan's POV)

Roman and I have become quite good friends over the past three weeks he's come over to my house some in my opinion the past three weeks have been the best weeks of my life except the fact that i may have gained feeling that are a bit more that platonic for Roman  but i guess good things dont last forever Roman hasn't bee at school for a few day's Remus wont tell me where he is and he isnt responding to any texts even i can hardly focus on my work Roman come in the third class of the day and i sigh a bit my worry going away although i am still a bit worried he looks sickly pale and is wearing  a large hoodie jeans and converse which is far different that his usual extra outfit "Welcome back Roman-"

"Hello Mr. Sams. . ." Roman sits next to me I grab his hand and notice him flinch a bit

"We need to talk after class-" I say quietly and look at him he nodded a bit and held my hand tightly

(After class-)

I walk out of the classroom still holding Roman's hand "What happened" He shook his head no

"Too many people here-" he say's quietly i nod a bit and seeing how it's lunch time a lot of classrooms are empty so i walk in one of said empty classrooms and once Roman is there i lock the door

"What happened?" i ask again Roman looked at me

"I- i made a mistake and it made my dad mad he kinda hurt me and insisted that i stay home until the obvious injuries aren't visible"

"May i see some of the other injuries?" Roman went and closed the blinds that lead into the hallway and then nodded a bit he carefully took his hoodie off and my heart metaphorically shattered he was so skinny that i could probably count some of his ribs he had small cuts on his stomach and some bruises i looked at his arms and saw almost the same type thing he has fragile arms and cuts and bruises everywhere "Roman if I may ask are any of self inflicted?" He nodded the smallest bit i frown a bit and hug the shorter more frail and delicate boy

"Im sorry. . ."

"For what? You can't help what your dad does, you cant help the thoughts that go through your head, and 6.8 million or 3.1% of adults meaning 18+ suffer from depression so you're far from alone" Roman hugs me as tight as he can

"You're such a fucking nerd" Roman said with a small laugh

"Excuse me but i take pride in knowing more than even some of the teachers at this school-" I say with a small smile Roman looks at me and he looked kind of worried

"Today after school you can come to my house- my dad is out of town for the week-" I smile a bit more

"Alright" I look at him"But for now we should go to lunch-" Roman puts his hoodie on and nods a bit

"Right-" we walk together to lunch

"And Roman" I stop in front of the cafeteria he looks at me "Don't think i don't notice how you only pick at your food during lunch- today you're gonna eat alright? "Roman sighs a bit and nods slightly we walk in the cafeteria we go to a table and sit down

Remus and a few of his friends where there they had already gotten food for the two of us Roman smiled and looked at his brother "Thanks Remus"

"No problem Ro- How are you feeling?"

"I'm fine" Roman said picking at his food and not really eating "I'm sorry if I worried you guys I just wasn't feeling well and didn't text anyone..." He looks at me as if asking me not to say anything so I didn't I kept my mouth shut and ate a bit I saw him eating and smile a bit

"That's quite alright Roman you have no control over that type of thing" He nods a bit

"Alright thanks Lo..."

"No problem" I say with a smile
