Harvey's POV

I can't take this anymore. Everyday that goes by I can't stand being alive. I have so many bruises on my body that I've lost count. Ever since I was 14 years old Hadley and I have been abused by our own father. My mother died from cancer when I was 13. Hadley and I sat right next to her bed as the life left her body and her heart rate on the machine went flat. That was the worst day of my life. My father wasn't there. He loved my mother so much. I would watch him everyday as he looked at her with so much love in his eyes. I guess he just couldn't be in the room as she died. Ever since that day he has come home drunk and passed out on the couch. He didn't start beating me till I was 14. I've never seen him beat Hadley but he's definitely mentally abused her. I could always hear here crying in her room every night. Some nights I would come in her room and comfort her until she fell asleep. Hadley and I have always been very close and do everything together. We have a big friend group with amazing friends. I love her so much and hate that I have to do this to her.

"I just can't do this anymore," I whispered to myself over and over in my bathroom. I'm holding a bottle of pain killers.

I finally get the courage to open to bottle and dump about 15 of them in my hand. I grab a cup I had on my bathroom counter from earlier and fill it up with tap water. I take one by one, putting them in my mouth and swallowing with the water. Once I've taken all of them I wait. After a few minutes I start to feel dizzy and make my way to my bed. My eyes started to feel heavy and I feel horrible.

"Harvey, I'm about to make dinner. What do you want?" Was the last thing I heard before my eyes closed and went unconscious.

Hey guys! How did you like the first chapter? I know it was quick but I wanted to add Harvey's POV.

What do you think will happen when Harvey doesn't answer the door? And who do you think is at the door? How do you people are going to react to this?
