Stars Hollow's Princess (Book 2)

Burden

Spencer's POV

As i made the rounds of Lorelai's marriage shower, i see Scarletts sister

"Rory, um, is-is Scarlett here?"

"i dont know, she said she was coming...but that was before...."

"right, do you mind if i go check on her?"

"not at all"

I get into my car and drive to her house, when i get there, i look up to her window, the lights were on, i leave the car running as i walk inside

"Red!" i call, as i stand in the foyer

No Answer

I walk up the stairs "Red!?"

Nothing

I walk down the hall and stand infront of her bedroom door, I knock, then wait for a responce, but theres nothing

I open the door slowly, and see her laying on her bed

Slowly walking toward her, i see that shes not moving...or breathing

"scarlett"

I turn her over, and i finnaly see the blood pouring out of her wrists, a switch knife beside her

"no no no no" I grab a ribbon off of the floor adn tie it tight around her wrist, i pick her up, bridal style and carry her out of the house and into the car

I drive franticaly to the hospital, i run in "help! someone help!"

Someone brings a stretcher and wheel her away

"excuse me, sir, whats her name?"

"R-red"

"Red?"

"no, sorry, Scarlett, Scarlett GIlmore"

"and whats your relationship to her?"

"Im her boyfriend"

"and your name?"

"Dr-Dr Spencer Reid"

She nurse nods "ill be right back"

I get on my phone and call her mother

"Spencer, Hi? where'd you go i just saw you like five minutes ago"

"somthing happened to Scarlett"

Theres a pause "what?"

"i went to go see her- and i fonud her, she-she wasnt moving, with-with cuts on her wrists"

Lorelai gasps over the other end

"were at the hospital now"

"ill be there in five"

Lorelai hangs up, and i put my phone down, and pace through the waiting room, tears streaming down my face

"excuse me. Dr.Reid?"

My head shoots up, and i look at the petite asian nurse infront of me

"y-yes?"

"Hi, im nurse Nina"

She holds out her hand, but i just give her a small wave

Shaking hands are disgusting

Retracting her hand, She pulls out her clipboard "now, Scarlett's gonna be okay, but she lost alot of blood, so she'll be able to leave in acouple of days"

i nod "can-can i see her"

Nurse Nine smiles and leads me further into the hospital, we walk into a hospital room, and Scarletts laying in bed a blanket over her body, her hair down and spills over her shoulders, and around her wrists there are...
