1. A Young Couple's End
I sat there frozen unable to move, I can't even hear the rain over the sound of my heart racing. My eyes are locked on her as she reaches out towards me. Her wet hair is stuck to her face, her ocean blue eyes locked on to mine. God, I never thought this would happen. I can't seem to catch my breath. I can't think. All I can do is sit and watch, watch as it kills her.
It's standing above her holding her to the ground with one leg, it has a hand covering her mouth its seems to be able to muffle any noise, I can't even hear her screams. The other hand is slowly slicing her up carefully as if it's trying to see how long it. can keep her alive. There is blood everywhere. How long has it been? How long will it play with her? Why can't I move? I need to save her. Can I even save her? My breathing start becoming even more ragged I'm starting to become lightheaded. The last thing I can remember is her eyes pleading for help that slowly lost their life.
I woke up in the hospital, it was mostly a blur I remember my parents talking with doctors and some police officers. When I was questioned by the police I lied and said I couldn't remember anything, but there's no way I could ever forget what happened. I just couldn't say what happened, the words wouldn't come out. Later that day I was released from the hospital. Everything was a blur, even at home I couldn't focus on anything, I couldn't sleep that night either. All I could see, all I could think about was her. How I failed her. How I didn't save her.
I should have died there.
I had lost the ability to keep track of the time it felt like it's been both forever and mere seconds since she died, but didn't have any idea how long it had actually been. At least not till my parents told me they were going to call me out of school. I jolted up eyes widening as I realized what I had done. Because of me, she lost her best friend. They've been together since they came here and now........ now I've taken her. I promised I would never take her best friend from her and yet I-I... I killed her. I had already startled my parents with my sudden movement but they seemed utterly shocked when I said I would go to school tomorrow.
I still couldn't fall asleep that night. I knew I look terrible that morning but I didn't care I needed to see her, and apologize. It was the last thing I needed to do. When my friends asked if it was okay I merely said I couldn't fall asleep last night. It wasn't a lie. When I got to the classroom and saw her I froze, I couldn't tell her, I was too scared. I just continue talking with my friends and acted like I didn't know anything. Coward. You couldn't save her and now you can't even apologize to her best friend.
The announcements came on and despite everything, I hoped they wouldn't say it. I hoped that she would still come into the classroom. I hoped that maybe it was all a bad dream. Unfortunately, I can't wish my delusions true. The moment they said she had passed there was a loud clattering a couple seats away. I didn't even need to look to know who it was. The utter despair on her face was too much to stand. The teacher leads her out of the classroom.
Now you can't face her. You caused this. You caused this and you can't even apologize. Coward. Pathetic. Weak. Why did I have to be to live?
I should have died there. I should have died there. I should have died there. I should have died. I should die.
Sorry, it took me so long to post this. But!!!! I hope you all like this, I know im, not the best writer but I'm really proud of this and put a lot of work into it.
