I woke up in my bed. I don't even remember going to sleep.

I searched my bed to try and find my phone. Once I found it, I looked at the time. It was 10:48. Fuck .. We had school today.

Oh well.

I checked my messages. I had 2 from Chandler. And 3 from Veronica.

From Chandler:
6:00 a.m
Good Morning My Love
6:45 a.m

Awh. I just love him.

To Chandler:

7:35

To Veronica:
Stuff got real last night. Lmao I'll ttyl or after school.

After messaging them back, I decided to take a shower. I needed one bad. They make me feel relaxed.

I walk to the bathroom and make sure to lock the door. I turn on the shower all the way hot. I strip from my clothes and step inside.

After about an hour of relaxation, I turned my water off and got out. I wrapped my towl around my body, then search for my blade.

I remembered last night. How I threw it in the bathtub.

Once I find it.. I smile. I need this. I deserve this. Those were my thoughts at the moment.

I take it and press it against my wrist. Slowly.

One cut for Chandler. Two cuts for Veronica. Three for my mom. Four because of my dad, and .. Five.. Because of me.

I look down at my arm. 15 cuts.
They're not that deep.. Only a few are.

I throw my blade in the bath. And stare at my dripping blood. I start to cry.

My crying eventually stops when I hear someone trying to get the door open.
I freeze.

" Beth ..? Beth !?! " I hear a familiar voice call my name.

The person starts banging and trying to open the door .. Eventually they open it.

I look up and see Chandler ...
