Note
DISCLAIMER: All characters belong to the CW. Just needed to borrow them. (THIS CHAPTER HAS BEEN EDITED) This is my very first attempt at anything 100 related especially Abby x Raven and it’s one of my most angsty stories yet, though I promise, nobody dies and it has a happy ending. It was only a month or so ago I that I happened to turn it on and the scene playing was with Abby and Raven and Abby was checking her leg. I shipped them instantly and lost my heart to Abigail Griffin :-) One of the things that struck me was how much Abby carries. The woman has so many things piling on her but stays strong and I kept wondering how soon before it all became too much and she snapped. And then I saw the episode where Raven told Abby she sucked and my heart broke at Abby’s expression and this story was born. WARNING: Very strong trigger warning for self harm/cutting in the beginning. I’m not an expert on the subject, but what I described came from what I was looking for when I did it and hopefully I have not trivialized it or minimized it for anyone else. This is only in the prologue and part of the first chapter with only mild reference throughout. Just to put minds at ease, the cutting will not continue past what's referenced in the first chapter. Please forgive any errors: spelling, out of character characters, time line errors.
