Consequences

I woke up and looked at the time... 1:47 P.M.

Great, just great.

As I dizzily arose from my bed, memories of last night's endeavour came flooding all throughout my head. Enzo, Astoria, Theo, all of it.

How could I be so dumb? How could I let myself get to that point? How am I going to fix things?

Once I had fully gotten up my body was immediately tackled back onto the bed with a sudden sensation of lightheadedness. 

"Fuck" I groaned.

Pansy wasn't here, I was all alone battling these emotions, figuring out the best way to handle the consequences of my prior actions.

I don't deserve my friends, I don't deserve Hogwarts, I don't deserve any of it. My parents were right to treat me like shit! All I ever do is mess everything up! Break everything nice! Ruin everything meaningful! I shouldn't even be here! I should be dead! No one deserves to have to live with someone like myself in their life! Death should be my punishment!

It was decided.

I walked over to my bathroom with a small pocketknife from my dresser in hand. I look in the mirror, honestly terrified of what I'm about to do, but then stop and smile. I smiled. I realized that when I go through with this, all of my problems will be over. I won't need to deal with any of it. It's the easiest solution for myself.

But wait, that doesn't sound like a punishment.

I debated killing myself there and then, or letting myself live.

If dying is a blessing, then I should live. But I don't deserve to live!

I came to a conclusion, I shall live a tortured life... and with that I cut slit after slit down my arms. Drops of blood and tears dripping down my body, mixing into a watery concoction. I wasn't afraid to cry, I wasn't afraid of showing weakness, I was alone. No one was her to see it.

I let myself cry, I let everything out, and in the end I was met with my body drenched in blood, sweat, and tears.

I picked myself up, looked in the mirror, and recited my very overused motto:

"Head Up.

Stay Strong.

Fake A Smile.

Move On."

And that I did, I smiled, practicing the face I'd show others later on. Others whom I did not drunkenly scream at the previous night.

As I walked into the shower, I set the water hotter than usual. All heat was on me. It was almost as if I was trying to burn my skin of and start my day with a new one. After all, snakes shed their skin right?

I felt the water pound on my red, sensitive skin. 

I decided that I shouldn't be wallowing in my sorrow, after how I've caused it for others. I was to take a shower, and fix things as best I can....

Okay! I get that there is only like 5 words on this page, but it's just a filler! I have HUGE plans for our next few chapters!

Also, I have a challenge! If we can get to 100 votes on this story, I will update 3 chapters ( not just fillers ) in one day!

Let's see if we can do it! It's not too far away!
