One day when Mattie was away, it was dark and late, so Arthur sat Alfred down, and told him his favorite things about him, and Alfred was so happy. Not because of the litany of lewd compliments that Arthur murmured to him that night, or the warm touch that traced over every favorite part, but because now Alfred knew what he could do stop it. He could stop it all.
He didn’t. After all, he and Mattie were so very much the same. And if Alfred didn’t have those creamy thighs and cherry lips, well, Mattie did, didn’t he? And Arthur might actually pay attention to the other boy for once, and Mattie would never crave the affection Alfred got again.
But Alfred imagined it -- burning his thighs to puffy scars, chewing his lips to chapped bleeding messes. For a while, it was the only fantasy he indulged in.
(When it’s quiet and Alfred’s mind is an uneasy sort of empty, he wonders if it was the compliments Arthur gives him that stopped him. Maybe he doesn’t care about Mattie.
Maybe those compliments are the only things he cares about at all.)
i don't know if the op is still around, but hopefully they enjoyed this. i accept my ticket to hell with pride, thank you.

Wow I really liked this. Dark and so much desperation for poor Alfred! Plus Arthur's desire really shows through, 'cherry lips' indeed. If you ever want to write more, I would definitely read it. Thanks for writing!!!
