Lola was definitely dead. She had made sure of that. She was now staring down at what used to be her body, hanging from the ceiling fan in her room. She sighed, thinking back on what had brought her to the conclusion she had to kill herself. It had all started a couple months ago.
Lola Tristan was a bubbly seventeen year old, going into her last year of high school. She was very sweet, always being kind to everyone and willing to help. Unfortunately, her constantly happy attitude wasn't loved by everyone. There were several people that would take advantage of her kind and willing attitude in various ways. One day, it was taken too far.
Lola's day started off as normal, she woke up, did her morning routine and drove to school. When she got there, a jock that she was acquainted with named Josh stopped her, asking for ten dollars. "Sure! Here you go." Lola chirped, pulling a $10 bill out of her wallet and handing it to him. Josh grinned at her. "Thanks, Lola. Good to know you're here if a guy needs help. I'll pay you back later." Lola shook her head. "Oh, no need. I'm just happy to help!" Josh patted her on the shoulder, waving as he walked away. Lola headed to her first class with a smile on her face.
Later, Lola was in her last class of the day when she was called down to the principal's office. Lola stood up from her desk in confusion. She knew she hadn't done anything wrong, so why was she being called to the principal's office? Thoughts swirled around in her head as she walked down the hall. When she got to the office, he was startled to see the principal, the football coach, Josh and his parents, and her parents, the latter which stood up abruptly as Lola entered. "Lola Grace Tristan! Have you been smoking?! This boy says you gave him marijuana!" Lola's dad shouted, jabbing a finger at Josh, who sneered at her, all traces of his former friendly attitude gone. "You got me in trouble, bitch. I'm just returning the favor." He mouthed. Lola stared, slack jawed in disbelief. Did her parents seriously believe she was smoking? "I-I have no clue what you're talking about!" Lola squeaked, her greenish blue eyes wide in shock. "We know Josh wouldn't willingly do drugs, so you must have coerced him." Josh's mom said angrily. Lola had no clue what to say to that, so she stayed silent. She listened to the principal explain that both of them we're getting suspended for a week, and dismissed them. Lola and her parents drove home in silence, and Lola went to her room to cry once they got home. Her parents confiscated all her electronics and things, so all she could do was be alone with her thoughts. Over the next week, Lola sunk into a stupor, the fact that a person who had seemed so nice would betray her, gnawing at her mind.
Back at school on Monday, she was accosted by the entire football team, pissed off that Josh was suspended, causing him to miss some practices so he couldn't play in the upcoming game. They took out all their frustrations on Lola, leaving her badly bruised. She lay there in the hallway, crying as the football players walked off. She eventually got up, thankful her shirt covered most of the bruises. As the weeks wore on, things only got worse. Word spread around the school, and people who Lola once considered friends now wouldn't give her a second glance, all because of one boy's lie. Lola couldn't take it anymore. She'd became depressed and withdrawn, dreading school. One day, several months into the bullying and ostracizing, Lola had enough. She waited until the house was empty, going to the garage and grabbing a rope. She then went up to her room, tying one end to the ceiling fan and the other into a noose. She then pulled the chair from her desk over, standing on it and placing the noose around her neck. She then kicked the chair to the side, the rope cutting off her air. She swayed in the air, the life leaving her body. Soon, she was staring down at her body, not caring. She was on a mission now. She left her room, finding the school directory and locating Josh's house. She headed there, the people walking the streets paying her no mind, as they couldn't see her. She entered his house easily, watching him texting his friends. She made her presence known by knocking over his lamp. "H-hello?" He asked. She couldn't help but giggle, which he apparently heard, because he freaked out. She rushed at him, possessing his body. She then forced him to walk over to the window, opening it. He was struggling against her control, but she wasn't letting go. She was going to make him pay. She made him climb out the window, doing a swan dive onto the pavement below. His head slammed into the pavement with a sickening crack, snapping his neck. Satisfied, Lola left his body, going on to pay visits to those that had caused her to end it all.
