Chapter Seven- Life Lessons (Part Two)

C A M E R O N

I push my seat back taking into note what Anna; the girl who I grew up with, the girl who I loved, was going to do. "Mr Boyce, this is my lesson! Sit down now!" Ms Vinclet shouts. I turn my head around and face her directly in the eye. " A-Anna.. She's committing.." I stutter not being able to deliver my words correctly, " Suicide." Ms Vinclets eyes widen as listens to the words coming out of my mouth. I sprint out of the class, tears rolling down my face. I suddenly come to a hault. I collapse down onto the ground and begin screaming. "WHY!? ANNA!" By now my eyes are blemished and by face is red. Where would Anna go? Somewhere special to her? She can'thave gone to the Auditorium; lessons are going on in there.. The statue. "Cameron!" I suddenly hear someone calling my name. Lauryn. "No you stay away! This is your fault." I say sternly leaving her stood with tear emerging in her eyes.

I finally reach the statue of 'friendship' . I grab the pairs of scissors and drop my bag. My life is a mess, there's no need to live anymore. The love of my life played me, my parents are messed up- dead for all I know. I'm just causing havoc to my adopted family's life. I start crying as I press the scissors against my arm. I hear sirens approaching in the distance but take no note of them. I need to be gone by the time they're here.

Good bye.

"Anna?" A soothing voice calls my name. I spin round and realize its Cameron. "NO GO AWAY!" I scream threatening to cut myself deeper into my veins. Hang on, he's been crying too. My cammy has been crying. He raises his hands up in defence. "Anna, please don't. You don't need to die baby--" I feel butterflies evolve in my stomach. Baby. "Cameron there's no point of living" His facial expression softens and a tear rolls from his eye. " Everybody despises me and think I'm a slut. A slut. I've been called worse but it hurts more when people actually begin to believe it." I cry. The sirens are at full beltch and are powering into my ear. I turn around and spot my family. My mom is crying into the shoulder of my step dad. Kendall, Kylie, Khloe and Kourtney are comforting each other- also crying. What have I done. Paramedics have just arrived and are preparing all their kit. "See, we do care. We are about you. Look at your family, they wouldn't be here if they didn't" Cameron says calmly, edging closer towards me. One step at a time." You don't care. Which is why I have to go..." I sigh, my voice breaking in between. "I do care." He retorts. "GIVE ME A REASON FOR YOU TO CARE!" I scream.

"BECAUSE I LOVE YOU, OKAY?"Cameron shouts.

My mouth opens agape. I'm speechless for the first time ever. Everything goes silent. I loosen my grip on the scissors. I step towards Cameron questionably. He sighs and he holds his arms out for me to go into. He doesn't care that I'm covered in blood, that I've just attempted suicide, that I'm an unfit bitch who causes havoc; he really does love me.. I lower the scissors to about hip length and go into his arms. I look behind me and see my mom running towards me followed by paramedics. "ANNA? CAMERON?" Lauryn shouts her arms waving about her head. Cameron instinctively turn around, knocking my hand and pressing it against my stomach- that hand with the scissors in. I look down and find a red blood stain emerging in my clothes. He turn back around and realizes what has happened "Anna? Anna!" He screams as I fall into his arms. The pain is unbearable. I feel so hazy. Am I dying? Maybe I deserve to. "ANNA!!" I hear what sound like my mom screaming. I feel so numb and vision is blurring. "Keep pressure on the wound at all times and do not by any circumsthes wemof ze thibors." What the hell are they saying. "Hey, hey Anna. Stay with me baby, mommy's really proud of you and Cameron here would like to take you on a date sometime." Mom says soothingly, caressing my forehead. "Mom... I feel.." I don't finish that sentence because I simply can't. My appendix is throbbing and I can't take it anymore. I finally close my eyes and drift into a deep sleep. A very deep sleep.

I almost freaking cried writing that. A word of warning, don't listen to Ed Sheeran whilst reading this, bad BAD idea. What do yu think is going to happen next. Is Anna dead? Find out tomorrow people!
