Savannah's POV

I wanna run away... but where?

As the blood drips in the drain I ran water over my wrists

I decided to go to the park

I looked at my face, bruised. Ugh.

I threw on a hoodie and went out my window. It was now dark

I went to the park and sat on a bench then went to the swings

I heard 2 voices they were close I didn't even give a fuck. I was thinking of my fathers hurtful words ran through my head

"Savannah?" One said. Oh my god, Sam and Colby! "Uh hey" I say as my head shot up, Colby sat on the swing beside me, Sam sat on the other side

"Hey, you okay?" He asked I didn't look straight at him. Just back to the ground "yeah, I'm okay" I say "where's your gandpa? Or your dad, or aunt?" Colby asked "...hospital" I say "what why?" He began to panic "nothing to worry about. Just Alexis being a bitch. She said I pushed her off the roof but I didn't" I say "oh damn" he says "yeah... sorry for bothering you guys I'm going to go" I say "no, why are you here?" Colby asked "I snuck out" I say "can you just come to my house?" he asked "I guess so" I shrug "okay, my parents are gone. I told you that already didn't I?" He asked I nodded laughing a little

Colby grabbed my hand and we all began to walk together back to his place

He intertwined our fingers "so savannah, any plans for the future?" Sam asked "I mean, I wanna move to Los Angeles and build my YouTube career, but that's about it" I say "oh we started YouTube today. We have to edit our video when we get home" Sam says "really? I need to film haven't posted in like 2 weeks with everything going on" I say Colby squeezed my hand and pulled me closer to him he then took his hand away from mine and put his whole arm around me

We made it to Colby's and went up to his room. It smelled exactly like him. So fucking amazing.  We all sat on his bed in an uneven circle

"Sava- oh my god! What happened to your face?" Colby asked I looked at him confused, I had completely forgotten about earlier. Oh shit. "Nothing. I fell" I say "bullshit tell me" he begged "Fine. You wanna know?" I ask they both nodded. "My dad happened okay? My stupid step sister told him I pushed her off the god damn roof because we got into a fight and she fell off the ladder from my window. It's not my fault" I say trying to hold my tears "Savannah, you can tell us that type of stuff" Colby says "yeah. Even though Colby's your boyfriend, you can tell me that if you can't tell him" Sam says

"Even though you can tell me everything" Colby adds "anything?" I ask them they nodded "can I tell you guys something I've never admitted to anyone not even my aunt?" I ask they nodded I pulled up my sleeves and showed them the scars and the great cuts "oh-" Colby started but couldn't talk

"When I was 10, I cut for the first time. My dad had just started to hit me." I say "then I found peace in the razors and I haven't been happy enough to stop" I say they stared at my arms seeing the 3 fresh cuts I made "th-those are new" Colby points out I nodded

"Yeah, I did them after what my father did" I say "Savannah we care for you. Please just come to us okay?" Sam asked I nodded "well, it's just hard you know?" I ask "yeah, but Savannah?" Colby asked I looked at him "yeah?" I ask " what will they do when you come back home?" He asked I shrugged "they won't care. I snuck out. My door wasn't locked I bet they don't even look for me" I say "Savannah, you're our best friend. Please just talk to us, let it all out" Sam says taking his attention from my arms to my face, Colby looked at me in the eyes also

"Okay, So when I began to cut myself it hurt but that's when my mom... that's when my mom took her own life. She was an angel for sure, the only one who'd keep me in line. My father blamed me for it. I began to cut to ease pain, as the pain went away I felt numb. My whole life til now, I haven't felt genuine feelings for anyone. Not even friend wise" I say "so we're your first real friends?" Sam asked I nodded "basically" I say "babe?" Colby asked my heart fluttered at the nickname

"Can you just.. stay?" He asked "your parents will be home tomorrow" I say he shrugged "I don't know colby. I might get in worse trouble" I say "fine. But you're not alone alright? You got us" Colby says I nodded they hugged me

"Ew that's cooties" I joked I rolled down my sleeves as they pull away laughing he kissed me "is that cooties?" He asked "yes. Even more" I laugh

We took a bunch of stupid pictures and stuff then I went home

I snuck into my window and posted a picture on snap

I captioned it 'Officially mine :) ps, I'll post a video soon sorry it's taking so long haha'
