Part I

Girl Meets Riley

[ R i l e y ]

She sat in her pitch black room, it wasn't even dimly lit. She'd cry herself to sleep on some days, and on the other days, she'd slice her wrists that were once-pure.

I had given up trying to save her. I knew I shouldn't have.

She kept shutting me out, she wouldn't let me fix her.

We could've been broken together, but she was was deteriorating in more ways than one.

Maya Hart.

"Riley! Maya! It's dinner time!" my stepmom, Katy Hart called from downstairs. Water droplets formed in my eyes, and they threatened to spill. If only my biological mom never got into that car crash.

I didn't feel like going downstairs, I knew Maya wasn't going to be there anyways.

On some occasions, she would climb out her windows, and run away, but other than that, she never left the comfort of her room.

We used to talk all day, everyday, but she cut off connection with everyone.

This was all Katy's fault. It's her fault Maya's breaking beyond repair, it was her fault I'm in love with my stepsister.

"Riley?" Katy's voice rang in the halls, I could hear her getting closer to me, I flinched, and tightened my fist. By now we were looking at each other face to face, I turned, and ran into my room to resist the urge to punch her face out.

My back was pressed against the door. I slid down, so that I was now crouching on the floor, with my head tucked in between my knees.

I want to die.

Everyone dies eventually, why not just speed up the process.

I wonder how Maya feels when she cuts. Would it burn? Would it even hurt?

Of course it would hurt, Riley.

It's too tempting, but I held back the urge, and I just cried.

"Riley!!" Katy kicked the door, causing it to rattle. I sprang up, and walked away, planting myself onto my bed. I slammed my face into my pillow, and screamed.

I just wanted everything to end.

I missed Maya, I wonder how she's holding up.

I wanted to fall into deep sleep, and never wake up.

Shut up, Riles, you'll be okay.

Riles. Maya used to call me Riles.

She didn't need me anymore, she didn't need anyone.

But I need her.
