Time flies by when you're having fun, doesn't it? Certainly seems that way. As usual during my stay here, Jane and Jeff would have there fights but it never bothered me much. Too soon it's October, much to my disappointment, and you'd know exactly why I don't like October much. That day my ex dumped me. The last three Octobers I somehow missed the day but now I know it's coming. It's tomorrow in fact. I wasn't surprised when I woke up almost completely numb this morning. It happened in April within the first year.
~October 15th~
I wake up feeling completely numb and empty. Not surprising, because four years ago today was when my ex decided to rip my heart out of my chest and smash it to pieces. Not literally, but you get my meaning right?
I sigh. 'I hope this day goes by quicker than others because I know the past is done and I can't change it. But I don't care if it was in the past. It hurt,' I think to myself. I walk quietly down to breakfast and stay quiet the entire time. I just...block everything out. I feel completely empty. As soon as I finish my breakfast I get up, mumbling an 'excuse me', and walk away. I walk back to my room and pull out my ipod and select the playlist I made specifically for when I'm feeling sad about something. I put it on blast and listen to it over and over and over again.
Only after I've listened to it maybe 20 times I realize I need to get some fresh air. Yeah. Maybe that will clear my mind... I get up and walk outside and keep on walking until I see a lake that I've never seen before.
It's getting dark but I don't even notice or care.
"Hey," a voice says. Jeff. "Are you okay Sky?" He seems worried. I glance at him and shake my head and look back at the water as a tear slips from my eye. "You're crying so obviously you aren't okay..."
"Do you know what it feels like, Jeff?"
"Does...what feel like?"
"To feel like your heart has been ripped out of your chest and smashed into the ground mercilessly..." I can tell he's staring at me in shock.
"No, why?" he asks.
"Four years ago today, I had my heart shattered by the boy I was dating at the time. We started dating when he asked me out at the Homecoming dance at my school. A few days into it, my grandfather had a stroke and was sent to the hospital. Not a bad stroke, but I was still upset and I told him. He seemed to care and told me it would be okay. Well, today was the day he texted me and asked if we could just be friends and I was crushed. I thought, 'Why couldn't he have waited until lunch to ask me this?'
"He then acted as if I never even existed. Not talking to me, not looking at me. Of course I would be heartbroken. Then on Easter the following year, I sent him the picture he gave me of him and a few quotes I thought he'd like. He asked me who it was and I replied saying, 'The girl you've been ignoring me for five to six months' and we had a slight argument chat. Then," I stop for a moment as tear leak freely from my eyes and I make no attempt to stop them. "Then he told me the truth. The truth that he never actually loved me, that he was leading me on the entire relationship, making me believe that he loved me..." I sit on the ground and hug my knees to my chest and cry into them. "I believed he actually loved me the entire relationship. I was completely blind. Ever since then I've had trust issues with everyone I've met, except for girls because I obviously would never date one. But with guys it's a different story. I'd stay closed to them like a locked door, in fear that they would betray me..."
Jeff walks over and sits next to me. "Well open up, will ya? Not all guys in the world are like that, you know. Besides, he's a loser that deserves to experience the pain you're going through right now..."
I look at him and give him a small smile before standing up. "I'm gonna go back to the mansion..." I walk back to the mansion and end up locking myself in my bathroom. I look at myself in the mirror before punching and shattering it. I can't take this anymore... I can't deal with this pain. I open a small drawer and take a razor out ant start cutting up my arms. Only after I realize that my arms are bleeding pretty bad do I stop and try to stop the blood from flowing out but nothing is working. My vision slowly starts to fade and just before I fall unconscious, I hear Sally calling for help.
~Jeff's P.O.V~
I watch Sky walk back to the mansion. So that's why she's been so quiet today. I swear if I see that ugly bastard's face I'll make his last day a living hell. I'll make his death slow and painful.
I sigh and start walking back to the mansion because it's late and I'm getting tired.
"Help..." I hear Sally call from Sky's room. I walk in.
"Sally? What's wrong?" Sally points to the bathroom door, which has blood flowing underneath from the bathroom.
"Sky won't come out!" My eyes widen and I try to open the door but it's locked.
"DAMMIT!" I kick open the door and find Sky lying in a small pool of blood which came from her arms. I pick her up and run out of the room, desperate to find Slenderman. "SLENDERMAN!!
Sally is crying and chasing after me, and I find Slender in the kitchen. "Child what is it-" he suddenly stops when he turns to me and sees Sky in my arms. "Follow me, quickly!"
I follow him to the operating room and set Sky gently down on the bed as Slender starts to wrap up her arms and hook up a blood bag to her arm.
"What happened?" he asks. I shake my head.
"I don't know," I reply. "I was walking by her room when I heard Sally calling for help and...and I saw blood coming from the bathroom and I saw this... It might be because of what she's remembering from this day in the past..."
"She's lost a lot of blood, so I am not sure how long it will take for her to wake up. Or if she'll wake up at all..." Slender walks out of the room and closes the door. I look back at Sky.
Please wake up...
