Scarlett P.O.V

I knocked on Chris' door waiting for a response but I didn't get one. I looked at Scott but he wasn't paying attention. I sighed and started looking around for an open window but I had no luck. I then remembered that Chris always put a key underneath his doormat. I lifted the doormat and I saw the key. I picked it up and opened the door with it. My eyes widened as I saw what I dreaded all these years. The reason I didn't want to get too close to Chris. Him kissing another girl. He stopped kissing her and looked at me with shame. 'I don't even know why I'm this mad. We are not even together' I thought. I hid my angry face and changed it with a smile.

"Hi! I'm Scarlett." I approached the girl. She had brown eyes and glasses. She was extremely pretty which annoyed me much more than it should. She was a bit shy but quickly responded,

"Hi, I'm Kristin, Kristin Cavallari." She smiled but I knew it was fake.

"Nice to meet you," I looked away to look at Chris and told him, "Chrissy, your brother is outside texting my friend. They have been texting all day. I have to go because I'm meeting Ryan. He finally responded and told me that he is coming. So bye." I walked up to him and gave him a kiss on the cheek, really close to his mouth. I saw him blush a bit but he hid it really well. I did a little hand goodbye (moving one finger at a time) and left.

Chris P.O.V

'That was probably the most embarrassing moment I ever had. Scarlett saw me kissing Kristin and not like a nice kiss but proper making out. And then she gave me a kiss too close to my lips.' I thought.

"Hey Kristin, I think it's better if we stay as friends." I said giving her my 'please not kill me' smile.

"Yeah I think it's better like that. umm, I better go. Bye?" She responded quickly and left awkwardly. I messed up that friendship, for sure. I looked over at Scott, that was still standing in the doorway, and he was smiling at his phone. He really looked like a teenager in love.

"Scott!" He got startled and turned over looking for a response. "Do you wanna watch a movie or something?"

"Not after I saw you making out with the girl. I'm not sitting in that couch again." He said disgusted and walked up stairs to his room. I sighed leaned on the wall next to me. I slid to the floor and put my head on top of my knees. I really am messing everything up. Why do I have to be so stupid and an ass. Soon I felt tears falling down my cheeks. I put both my hands in the form of a fist and started to squeeze them with my full strength. I opened them after about a minute and saw the blood on my hands. I couldn't feel it. I punched the wall and broke a bit of it. My knuckles were now full of blood. The tears didn't stop. I needed to get some fresh air but I felt like if I couldn't breath. WHY DO YOU HAVE TO BE SO STUPID. YOU ARE USELESS. The voice in my head kept repeating it. YOU ARE NOT WORTH IT. I don't know why but I listened and it lead to me hurting myself.

Scott P.O.V

I walked upstairs disgusted and continued to text Steve but this time with my headphones on. I don't know how but I fell asleep soon after. The morning after, I woke up and headed downstairs. What I found was not something nice. I called Scarlett as quick as possible and cried my eyes out.

Scarlett P.O.V

"Scott?" I answered the call. I had just finished my morning routine and got a phone call from Scott, Chris' brother.

"Scarlett...It's Chris...he's done it again..." He said with a broken voice as if he was crying.

"Scott? Is everything okay? You're scaring me. Is Chris okay?" I said worried.

"Come over please." He said and before I could answer, he hanged up. I was scared so I got in my car and rushed my way to Chris' house. As I was driving, the nerves were hitting in. I breathed in as I parked next to his house. I knocked on the door and Scott opened right away.

"Scott? Chris?" I called as I entered Chris' house.

"Scarlett! Over here!" Scott called, his voice still broken. I rushed over and the next thing I saw brought me in tears. Chris was passed out on the floor with blood on his arms.

"Shit." I cried, and ran over next to him. "What happened?" I said trying not to cry that much.

"I don't know I-i walked-do-own the stairs and he...he was like-like this." Scott said between sniffles. I called 911 and told them to come over. I told Scott to calm down. Maybe text Steve or something and to relax because he was too shaken up. He nodded and started calling Steve, telling him what had happened. I on the other hand, was dying on the inside. I waited beside Chris until the ambulance came. When they came, I called Scott asking him if he wanted to go with his brother to the hospital and he said he'd drive and that I could go. I asked again but he reassured me that I needed to be with him more than he did. I don't know if he was right but I really needed to be with him. I didn't know why but a part of me thought that in some part it was because of me he was like this. The ride to the hospital was me holding Chris' hand whilst the doctors did somethings to him. They attached him to what I thought was a stethoscope (the thing they use to check your heartbeat) and the machine started beating but after a second, it stopped. The heartbeat stopped and I think mine did too.

So that happened. What do you think will happen next?
