The story of us

Nine

'I kissed the scars on her skin, I still think your beautiful and I don't ever wanna lose my best friend'

- A match into water, Pierce the veil

  ————————————————————————

I was seven weeks clean from cutting. The longest I'd been since last year; I was trying so hard not to relapse because I needed to be strong for Luke. He'd been admitted to hospital on friday, which means he'd been in six days. I've spent every night with him there just in case anything happened to him, he doesn't deserve this. If anyone in the world deserved it, it should be me after everything I put him through. I could be the reason he dies.

The next couple of days things were sort of a blur, Luke stayed the same, his eyes had sunken right into his face, his bags under his eyes had gotten darker since he'd been admitted. I started to get really anxious so I went to ask the nurse what the chances of him surviving or getting any herder would be. Even if they were really low I would still know a sort of time he had left to do things he's always wanted to do.

'Excuse me? Em, could I possibly ask you a question?' I said slowly walking towards the nurse who was treating Luke. 'Sure, what can I do for you?' She replied.

'Has a life expectancy been given for Luke yet? I'm just really cautious that he won't get time to do everything he's ways wanted to do.'

' Yeah there has, I was supposed to catch you earlier to inform you, I'm sorry but it really isnt looking good in the slightest, his death rate Is 99-100, I'm so sorry. Is there anyone I can call for you? And family?'

' No, there's no one left for us but us, it's always been that way since know can remember.' I replied with my eyes flooding with tears like an overflowing stream. My hands were shaking like I'd just seen a ghost, I ran and ran and I didn't stop until I was on top of the hospital roof.

« I would like to dedicate this chapter which has taken me almost a week to write because I couldn't choose a suitable path to take for Luke and Eesia's journey, to my best friend, happy 16th birthday piggy, thank you for making sure I never gave up no matter what, I love you xoxo»
