SLIGHT TRIGGER WARNING

4 months later....

I woke with my face stiff. I sat up with a sigh and threw my frail legs over the side of my bed. I walked into my bathroom with my shoulders slacked. I grimaced looking in the mirror. The face staring back through the glass wasn't me. She was a pale, lifeless girl with red, puffy eyes. Her cheekbones stuck out along with her jawline. She looked drained. I almost felt sorry for her until I realised it was me.

"I'll be gone a lot more than I'd like to be El. You have to understand this is as hard for me as it is for you!"
I scoffed. "You can't leave me too! Brad you're the only thing I have!"
"That's not true!"
"You can't go!" I screamed, tears falling like rain from my eyes.
"I promise I will never forget you El." He kissed my forehead. "I promise with every part of me."
He got up and left me in my room, I sunk down against the wall screaming his name repeatedly for what felt like centuries.

"Honey you need to eat."
I glared at the food as if it was my biggest enemy as he pushed the plate in front of me. The chair screeched along the tiles as I stood up abruptly. I threw my bag over my shoulder and stormed out, leaving my dad sat at the table with tears in his eyes. Mine and brads breakup wrecked everythin. My weight has dropped because I lost my appetite. I barely ever talk. I sometimes walk past brad at school and it takes everything in me not to run up and hug him and kiss him and make him mine again. My mum always said to me, "Always have more than Brad and Erin as friends. You never know what could happen."
And she was right. Erin went to the other side of the globe and a month later I lose my soul mate. As soon as I got through the school gates I walked to the nurse with my head low, fringe covering my exhausted eyes. When I reached the familiar door I knocked twice and waited silently.
The familiar face of Mrs. Weaver appeared from behind the door. She ushered me inside and sat me down.
"So how are you Elly?"
I groaned and pulled at my sleeves, the friction of the material of my jumper rubbing against the fresh gashes on my arm.
"Same old." I grumbled.
"I see." She put her glasses on the end of her nose. "Say, Elly. Have you ever considered official counselling?"
"For what."
She leant over in her chair, her head resting on her hands. "You tend to under eat a lot and you cause harm apon yourself."
I sat up straight and sighed. "I'm fine I guess."
"Well its completely up to you, but if you decide its what you want, I'm always in this office. Now hurry yourself up for class."
"Thankyou Miss." I stood up and walked out.

"EL!" I spun around to see Martha running towards me.
I stopped and waited for her to reach me.
"You alright?" She chirped walking beside me. Her dark blonde hair cascaded down her shoulders in loose waves.
I shrugged.
"I spoke to Brad today." She said quietly.
I laughed half heartedly. "What about?" I acted as if I didn't care but in all reality I really did. I wanted to know how he was. He's met up with that 'James' kid a few times and I want to know how everything is going. I want to know if he's alright. In a way I want to know if he misses me as much as I miss him. God do I miss him. When he left me in my room that night, I have cried everyday and every night. I just want him back.
"He wanted to know if you're okay."
My heart leaped practically out of my chest and I almost jumped in happiness but I then realised I need to act as if I don't care. "As if he cares." I said. To be honest it was half true. If he cared that much, he wouldn't of left me to cry in my room by myself.
"Trust me I think he does, I've gotta go but meet me in the canteen at break OK?" She chirped. I admired Martha in so many ways. She was beautiful, clever, funny and never failed to be happy. She was one of those people that could make everyone else happy by just being in her presence. She hugged me tightly before skipping of down the hallway. I smiled lightly to me before bumping into someone.
"Oh I'm sorry." I apologised. I looked up and my heart raised to my throat.

"El." Oh for fucks sake.
