Chapter 1
TRIGGER WARNING SELF HARMOne cut won't do to much damage, right? I clutched the knife my hands were shaking. Today there was a gay couple in the park. Your probably wondering what could be so bad about a gay couple. It's not the couple it's my parents and their rude remarks.
"F*gs".
"Their going to hell".
I touched the knife to my arm and slowly dug in. Tears fell down my face. I could stop at one cut. This wouldn't become an addiction not like last time. I dragged it down my arm and blood poured out of my cut and down the drain of the sink. I washed of the knife and put it in the bottom of my sock drawer. My cell phone rang and I could bearly lift it my arm was in so much pain, but the pain felt good.
"Hello", I said.
"Hi", my best friend Abbie said. She sounded bright and cheerful unlike me.
"I just listened to halseys new single, without me. It's great. She's so talented", I said making conversation.
"I know right she's the best. So you know my cousin the lesbian one".
"Um no. I feel like you mentioned her before though".
"Well she's moving into my house with her family. My moms sister and her husband".
"Oh cool".
"She's our age. No offense but you could use some more friends. We could hang out at school it would be really fun".
"That sounds fine. What's her name"?
"Ella. She looks kind of like me but she has darker brown hair and she's a little bit tanner".
"She sounds pretty".
"Yeah. Don't tell her that she might get the wrong idea".
I laughed along with Ella.
"My parents can never meet her they'd hate her".
"I don't see how your parents can be so homophobic".
"I don't get it either. We saw a couple in the park today and they started saying how they were going to hell and all that shit".
I looked down at the cut on my arm. The bleeding was slowing down.
"That must suck".
"I'm just glad I'm straight".
"Yeah. Speaking of straight how's Jonah doing"?
Jonah was my boyfriend, "he's great. Still really sexy".
"That's good. I need a boyfriend".
"Isn't it a little soon you and Levi just broke up".
"I guess. I mean it's been a month".
"I have to go. Don't worry you'll find someone".
I ran back into the bathroom and took a shower washing all the dried blood off my arm.
