WARNING- THIS CHAPTER MAY TRIGGER OR OFFEND SOME WHO HAS DEALT WITH SELF HARM AND HARM IN GENERAL
————————————————————————
All of a sudden I hear a slight giggle and I turn my head quickly to see, the class isn't empty.

                          And we continue...

My eyes widen as I stare at this beaten girl, her head leaning on the wall.

"Hi!" I say as I walk closer towards her,

The closer I get the more I can really see how roughed up this girl is.

"What the hell, who did this to you? wait first, what's your name?" I ask, kneeling down next to the trembling girl,

Her eyes are different colors, blue and brown and she has major eye bags. It also looks like her arm has marks all over it, and her leg is all bruised up and bleeding, this girl has been through it.

"M-my name is Elliot, b-but my mom calls me Ellie" the girl explains before she starts laughing.

"Ellie, you're badly hurt but your laughing?"

"A good laugh heals a lot of hurts-"

"- Madeleine L'Engle" I cut her off,

I know this girl, I remember when I was in my freshman year Samantha recommended an "Elliot" to write my essay for me when I was struggling. Wait, so that means maybe one of her clients did this to her.

"y-yeah... you know her?" Ellie groans, she was bleeding badly on her leg and through her nose. Her face was also scratched and bruised.

"I've heard of her and I had a little poetry phase a few years back. But no matter, who did this to you?"

...

It's been 5 minutes and Ellie hasn't replied to me, I looked down, her legs started to bleed even more. Just who did this to her? Someone with a freaking bat.

I've already wasted enough time, I have to help this girl.

~The bell rings~

"Shoot... I'm gonna try to call my brother so he can carry you to the nurse, is that okay?"

Ellie's eyes widened and her face brightened

"D-Dylan?"  she asks weakly,

"Yeah him! You met before?"

"N-no... but um I'm not a good people person" Ellie explains,

I looked at her even more, she was shivering. That haunted expression on her face looks like-

Suddenly Ellie's eyes closed and she collapsed on the floor.

"Ellie?!" I scream as I quickly call Dylan and run to unlock the classroom door,

"Hannah! Are you okay? Where are you? Sam-"

"-I'm in classroom 142 can you come? This girl passed out and she's bleeding, I can't carry her my arms are too wimpy"

"I told you, you should work out your arms more sticky!"

"Shut up! There's a girl bleeding unconscious right now! Hurry up!" I explain before I hang up.

"Ellie, hang in there..."

~5 minutes~

It's been 5 minutes, I can't look at her, it still reminds me of-

"Hannah!" Dylan exclaims, as he rushes through the door,

"Dylan! Finally, get your strong arse over here and help me pick up Ellie!"
