It's so powerful how just a simple smile can hide so much.

Ashton's POV

"Why am I so weak?" I whisper to myself looking down at my wrist seeing the blood drip off, falling into the sink. Blinking a few times to get my vision back my eyes are blurry from all the crying I've done.

"No one loves you" I tell myself while looking into the mirror "and no one will" I whisper with more tears streaming down my face "fuck stop crying! Your such a wimp!" I say wiping my face. I turn on the water and put my wrist under it to clean off the blood, I wipe my wrist with a paper towel and put a bandaid on it.

"YOUR SUCH A BITCH DONT DISOBEY ME" my father threatened my mom. I heard my mom shriek in pain. I wish I could do something... "THAT BOY OF YOURS IS A WORTHLESS PIECE OF SHIT" my father slurs to my mom another shriek from my mom falling to the floor.

I walk out of the bathroom after I clean the mess I made and walk to my bedroom door making sure it's locked so my dad couldn't come in. I go to my closet and pull out my old wooden drum box (box drum) I sat on it and started to pat it to make a beat. I closed my eyes and just patted the box. I started to do the beat to Skinny Love by Birdy.

"Come on skinny love just last the year,
Pour a little salt we were never here,
My my my, my my my, my-my my-my...
Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer." I sang quietly making sure no one can hear me.
"Tell my love to wreck it all,
Cut out all the ropes and let me fall,
My my my, my my my, my-my my-my...
Right in the moment this order's tall." I sang a little louder still beating on my box

"And I told you to be patient,
And I told you to be fine,
And I told you to be balanced,
And I told you to be kind,
And in the morning I'll be with you,
But it will be a different kind,
'Cause I'll be holding all the tickets,
And you'll be owning all the fines." I sang and still beating my box. I stood up and I picked it up, putting it in my closet. I walk to my bed and looked at the time it was 11:00pm on a Thursday. "Great.." I whisper sarcastically and i go to my window and closed the blinds. I walked back to my bed and lifted up the covers crawled into bed and laid down with my head on the pillow. I move my hair out of my face and then pulled the covers on top of me. I closed my eyes and allowed sleep to fall upon me.

Melissa's POV

I felt something. Something strange. Like someone just stabbed me with a knife in my heart. Like someone special to me is in pain. You know that feeling? That you think someone's in pain? You get that sick feeling in your stomach like something bad happened? Yeah that's what I got. I don't know what tho, I don't know who...

I just finished practicing my song "Amnesia." I stood up from my bed and grabbed my keyboard, I laid it on the keyboard stand and looked out my window and saw that my parents aren't home, I closed the curtains and went back to my bed. I pulled the covers to the side and sat on my bed, I looked at the clock and it was 11:00pm. I laid back with my head on my pillow and I pulled the covers on top of me and closed my eyes allowing sleep to fall upon me.

...

"HURRY UP MELISSA YOUR GONNA BE LATE FOR SCHOOL" my mom yelled from the bottom of the stairs "coming!" I yelled back. Finally it's Friday I hope this day goes by fast. I was wearing a black and red flannel with a black undershirt and black skinny jeans, I put a couple of bracelets and my hair was in a high ponytail with a red bandana.

I grab my phone, book bag, headphones and my penny board. I ran down stares and put on my converse.

"BYE MOM LOVE YOU" I yell about to run out the door

"BYE SWEETIE LOVE YOU TOO" she yelled back and I bolted.
"She doesn't love you" the voice in my head said. I just shook it off and walked out the door. I got to the road and put down my penny board, I plugged my head buds in my phone and turned on my music I put my phone in my pocket and flipped my book bag onto my back. I started to skate to school until I see a old red truck come up to me, I started to skate faster getting kind of scared. It kept following me. I went faster and faster until I bumped into someone. I squeezed my eyes shut. Shit who did I hit into?
