TRIGGER WARNING: Death, suicide, overdose, self-harm

Catherine was the first to die. They say that she had stopped taken her anti-depressants long ago and there was no one could have stopped it but Anne knew the truth. Catherine witnessing Jane and Anne's longing for each other had thrown her over the edge. She may have stopped taken the pills but Anne knew it was that longing that made her commit to her death that night.

~

Catherine had stopped taken her anti-depressants when she realized the family wasn't a family for her. She had enjoyed entering that dark hole of despair and no longer coming out. She had enjoyed dragging the knife along her arm. She didn't know why but those pills had been thrown out long ago. Catherine had been convinced by Jane to go to a doctor but Jane was no longer her loved one. She saw the longing in Jane's eyes when she looked at Anne and she had seen the desperate love in Anne's eyes when Anne looked back. Catherine had enjoyed dangling Jane in front of Anne to have that feeling of spite and twisted joy. Catherine had enjoyed keeping Jane from Anne almost as much as she'd enjoyed ending her own life.

~

Anne was next. They say that she had been self-harming for ages now but Jane knew that it was Jane's act of pure selfishness that had made Anne do it. She knew that Jane could've prevented it. Could've prevented both of their deaths if she had just been honest with Catherine instead of being so selfish that she thought she could have them both.

~

Anne had been self-harming since the day when Jane and Catherine told everyone about their relationship. She knew Jane was longing for her more each year and so was Anne but still Jane wouldn't end her relationship. When Catherine died, Anne's soul died too. You see Anne thought it was her fault. Everyday, the only thing she thought was I'm guilty. Anne couldn't take it anymore when Jane tried to kiss her. She had thought Anne wasn't so selfish that she'd date the person who had been in a relationship with the person who had just died. Anne had run up to her room when she realized she was that bad.

~

Jane was third. They didn't know what happened. Some said it was that her loved one killed herself that threw her off. Some said it was that her family was dying slowly. Either way Jane's selfishness was to blame. Anna didn't think of it that way. She thought she could have helped. She thought she could have stopped the twisted love triangle that was killing her family. Thing was she couldn't.

~

Jane had never self-harmed before or hurt anyone else at least not physically. She didn't know how to and suffered a slow painful death, bleeding out. The whole time she had been thinking about how she could stopped this and her selfishness. She wasn't thinking about the death coming or the pain she was experiencing. She was thinking about what she should have done. She was thinking about how she wanted to spend her life with Anne but Anne was dead and so was Catherine. So soon, so would she.

~

Anna was fourth. Her death was inevitable. She had cancer and would have died soon. It was not a game you could win. She knew she was going to die and couldn't take it anymore. She thought it was her fault that her family had died. Kitty didn't think Anna's life was pointless. Kitty thought she could cherish the time they had left. Turns out, they couldn't.

~

Anna had gotten permission to leave the hospital one last time. They thought she was going on a walk. She ended up in the caves on the beach, with a knife ready. She slit her wrists, a quick easy death. Much easier than the one she would have soon experienced. Much easier than spending the last few months, thinking about Jane, Catherine and Anne's death. Much easier than looking at and spending time with Kitty, someone who had decades to look forward to.

~

Then it was Kitty. She couldn't handle Anna dying. She couldn't handle spending the rest of her life alone.

~

It was easy for Kitty. You see Kitty had been planning to do this forever but then Anna was diagnosed. She knew that if she didn't give Anna the best last months ever there was no way she would have a happy after life but when Anna dyed, Kitty's inside dyed too. There was nothing for her to live for.

~

And Cathy. Everyone knew it was going to happen. Her whole family had dyed. She had nothing to live for. She didn't want to be the survivor anymore.

~

Cathy's death was a slow one. An overdose. Her last hours had been spent writing. Writing her past, her present and her future. It was a song she'd wanted someone to sing for her.

But No One Ever Did And So All Of Us Were Forgotten.

Dear Queens,

You wished for me to get better and gave me those anti-depressants but you never helped me get better. You wished for me to stop being a pain so you ignored me. Jane, you wished for Anne so you tried to have us both. Now you don't need to worry, because I am gone.

Anne, you ruined my first life and now my second. You pretended you knew my suffering but when it got hard, you ignored me.

Jane, you longed for Anne but were selfish and led us both on. Now, you can have her and you can be selfish however you want.

Anna, you ignored me. You said you would be there for me whatever the problem. Spoiler alert, you weren't.

Kat, you think only your problems matter. You think others are never good enough for your support. Cousin of Anne, you are.

Cathy, you let me live like this. You didn't notice anything and never tried to help when you did.

Goodbye, Catherine

~

Dear World,

I ruined my life and others. Now, I shall end my life like others ended there's. It is no one's fault but my own.

Jane, I loved you but you can not help me now.

Kat, You were my best friend and I hope I helped you instead of ruining your life.

All queens, thank you for the time I had with you.

Thank you, Anne

~

To Anyone

I am selfish and I know by doing this I am being even more selfish but this is the only way to heal. I am sorry for ruining our lives and family.

Bye, Jane

~

Kat,

This makes no difference. I would die soon enough. I know you wanted to spend those last months with me but I can not handle thinking about Jane, Catherine and Anne. I can not handle, looking at you and seeing a girl who had decades to live while I have none.

From Anna

~

To The World,

I am only a toy. The world is not losing a human, it is losing a toy. Cathy, I know I am leaving you alone but I am just a toy, it makes no difference.

Kat

~

I don't want to be the survivor anymore.

Cathy
