Lucy?" I raise my head in alarm. "Lucy!" I turn to the familiar voice. "There you are!" I feel warm arms engulf me, pulling me, soothing me.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIoUB2DNSp
"Ray…" I choke out. Ray releases me and looks at my tear-stained face. He takes my hand and slips the blade from between my fingers, his eyes never leaving mine.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cuL1TyHLy
"Lucy," his voice is broken. "Please tell me you didn't."920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWy1POcUGV
"I-I didn't." I take a deep, shaky breath. "But I almost did." He turns his head and shuts his eyes.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhECKEpPIY
"Promise me something, Lucy." He looks back at me. "Promise me that you'll never cut again, OK?" I nod. "If you ever fall back to this place again, call me over. I'll help you, Lucy." He grabs my hands. "Promise me."920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVWue8T5MZf
"I promise, Ray." I whisper, tears leaking out of my eyes. He pulls me into a tight hug, breathing out a sigh of relief. He kisses the top of my head and then moves back…920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5RJlCoIQg2
920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOyvBynk8M
I open my eyes and stare at my wall, but it's not there.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdDBSe3SX4u
My blanket is hanging off my bed, my clothes are strewn across the floor, my hair is sticking to my wet cheeks and the window is shut, enclosing me in darkness.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZHbg8lPG8
I feel nothing but pain and agony. A dark cloud is filling my head, making me seem heavy.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhB9EEHZ5q
Fake.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDMMdOlQtj
Not myself.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsv02HI4dzE
The silver blade is shining, piercing the darkness with an evil light. It taunts me, challenges me, dares me to touch it, to pick it up and to use it.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf91gTVhBxj
Oh, Ray. Where are you?!920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5qvzenx9h
"I'm going somewhere with my parents and we won't be back until Friday. Call me if you need anything, OK?"920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nEYB4m37f
Help me, Ray! Help me!920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wtOBfjeRK
I punch in his number and put the phone to my ear.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGO7ynJwKg
Voice mail.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSRXSeVeAe
I try again.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkl14C8uzJP
No answer.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NheJoONea
I frantically pull at my hair, curling into a ball. I shut my eyes but a few lone tears escape. I shake my head, trying to pull myself out of my despair and trying, somehow, to pull myself together. I'm falling apart, breaking down.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcj4HDrkWhG
I can't. I must stay strong.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvja1wax5Q2
My tears come faster.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7GrBilGDO
Keep it together, Lucy. Keep it together.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrnSPltgla
"Ahh!" I scream, pushing myself back. I lose my balance and fall off my bed, crashing to the floor. I cover my face with my hands, shaking, sobbing.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9FNubODvd
"Ray!" I cry out. Please…920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxygXAYZu1
My hands fall to my sides, my hair a knotted mess. I stare silently at the ceiling.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45PSMScVGp
Is it really that high?920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxa2vWQtoP5
I curl up on my side, staring into the black nothingness under my bed.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKo6UwGktRr
I must move… I need to move.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLcEosxrkW
I eye the door.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUfsif03YO
I will myself to sit up.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQB6T0704J
My room turns upside down and goes blurry, my vision faltering. I still and wait for the dizziness to pass.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKz18HpwWH
I blink once – twice- and then sit on my knees.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVBeZo7l8If
I focus on the door.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdTV2r65wW
I crawl forward.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBLp3iUvgb
I need to get there.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0b7L8SKGBm
I slowly try to stand up. I advance, pushing one leg forward and then the other, and repeat.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2SZDfyE7f
My legs are wobbly, broken.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6ni2ovQDS
Just a few more feet…920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Uyd6rge2w
I reach out my hand and take another step-920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtTSFuB1u1
and collapse to the ground.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZHvRkakXD
"No…" I try to stand again, but I can't get up.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEt6GHbYDI
I grab at my bed sheet, trying to pull myself up. I feel around, grabbing at anything I possibly can. I grasp closer to my blanket and freeze as I touch something cold. Sharp.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK82DmNKy14
I suck in a breath.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuJQZV1NHC
A chill of excitement and fear shoots up my arm, down my spine and spreads through my body.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4hShMbOfFV
I bring the blade closer to me, another thrill flowing inside me.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWS6EJj30TK
Just once.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAR0pvemxpv
"Promise me."920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3hY5NLmfq
"I promise, Ray."920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEif4w6CSvt
No, I can't. I promised him.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcq7J6c6Y3h
But it'll feel so good…920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySfNkC2KBs
I study the blade, turning it around in my hands.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZRt4ckWwv
It'll be quick. Just one cut.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFS1jw44Mxu
It'll heal quickly, faster than normally.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQHgxqdi7j
Now's your chance, Ray… I look at the door, waiting for him to walk through and stop me.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6ZogSynKY
Anytime, now…920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUh4vI0oVGa
My vision blurs. I feel drops on my skin.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKJ0FzHUqs
Is it raining?920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCM8McKvvfQ
No, that’s impossible.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyZ05pGwBF
I can't see.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNtWnybbsV
I try to take breath but I choke up, a heavy weight sitting on my chest. A rock is stuck in my throat.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWKjZ6Eb7o
I can't breathe.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89MolzxlLT
I thrash around, clawing at my throat. I make a gurgling sound, trying to swallow.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4FD2DUZiT
What's poking my leg…?920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Yq0yG21i4
I look down, choking on air, and spot the blade.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmqseyb6ne
How did it get there?920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArAnqDNo7u
I take it and hold it closely to myself.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWgVCib06J
How can something so evil look so beautiful?920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL0Tnv6QEZO
I bring it down to my wrist and shiver.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWZ2blsdce
So cold.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJeCcJDwWDa
I press down and drive it across my skin.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfb6Kh4U7t
I let out a shaky breath that I didn't know I was holding. My blood drips warm and red down my arm.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wtIznUuwF
I take another breath.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZnZXoeEoR
Another.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0AinNuNHM
My breathing comes harder, faster.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcG3AN3fbg
I slide the blade and cut again, slicing more of my skin. I gasp, my arm stinging. A groan escapes my lips as the pain takes its place, the sick pleasure mixing in.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhH5nKVBen
I lean back, resting my head against my bed.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDmeFee1ZO
I shut my eyes tightly.920Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjxwuJcJQM
I should not have done that.
