Shawn clung desperately to Aki as he took him back up to his rooms, closing his eyes tightly as they made their way back. He had to tell him where to go as they got to their dorm. He was going to give directions to his room, but was denied and his knuckles turned white as his grip tightened as they got close to the room. He sucked in a hard breath, and whined softly as he was soon being told he was abuot to be set down on the bed. His eyes clenched and he gritted his teeth hard as he was gently set down. He took in a shaking breath as he slowly looked up at Aki, his giant.<br/><br/>"No... But..." Shawn took in a deep breath, closing his eyes for a moment before shifting and very carefully pushing himself up into a seated position. He looked up at Aki and then closed his eyes as he looked away as he moved very slowly and very carefully to help him get his school shirt off before turning his head away as he held his arms up with a wincing pain as his undershirt came off. "I don't want to talk about it." he said, with a hiss of pain as he very slowly eased himself back down onto the bed, and turned his head away. He knew, there upon his right hip, creeping above the edge of his pants and belt, were hints of the burn scar that ran all around his leg, the ones his own brother had sought to hide. He couldn't even look up at Aki, didn't want to see the look in his eyes when he realized that he was defective, marked perminately for abuse.<br/><br/>Shawn didn't talk, closing his eyes as he let Aki treat him. He was still quiet, wouldn't look at him when he knew he was done. He was still having trouble breathing, but it was slowly becoming easier because he wasn't in as much pain. "I... I woke up... It was summer, large bon fire out back... I wasn't supposed to be there... Shouldn't have left my room..." he very slowly turned to look up at Aki "It... It travels all the way down... Over every inch of my leg... Will you leave? Never talk to me again?" he looked away from him again. "All the others did when they found out. I'm not supposed to have friends." he said, closing his eyes against the tears pricking the edges of his eyes. "Even Alice would leave, not talk to me... I'm sure of it." he said, trying to make sure that he was taking slowler and deeper breaths because his chest was getting tight.
