Save Me // S.W

Chapter 18

Shawn smirks at me.

"What?" I ask confused.

"That purple mark." He laughs.

Oh shit.

I cover it up. "Its nothing."

"I'm guessing Sam's lips were pressed there." He laughs.

"I'm guessing you should shut up before I kick your ass." I snap.

He puts his hands up in defense.

"Are you ready for this family trip?"

"Nope not at all."

"Come on. Your mom. Your father. Grandma. And me." Shawn says.

"I don't want to go. My father going? It's not good for him to be close to me for a long period of time."

"I will protect you." He offers.

"No one can protect me from my mind and the things he says." I sigh.

He nods. "I'm going to Sam's to say goodbye." I walk to the door.

I knock at Sam's door. No answer. As I was going to walk away. A girl opens the door. Who is she? Why is she wearing his sweats ?

"Is Sam here?"

"Yeah hes showering. I'm Madison by the way."

"Okay and I'm Erin."

"What are you to Sam?"

"His girlfriend." I say.

"He never mentioned he had a girlfriend last night." She flips her hair.

"Well apparently I'm not as important as I thought I was." I start walking away.

I get home and run into the restroom.
Ha pathetic. Thinking you were important ? Your worthless. Ugly. Not good enough. The voices in my head go on and on.

I'm on the floor crying hardly.
Cut. Cut. Cut. The voices echo.

I grab the blade and slice one by one.

I just lay on the floor letting my blood drop and drop. I end up falling to sleep.

I wake up to banging on the door.
"Erin!" Shawn's voice booms through the house.

I clean up the dried blood and walk out.

"I'm here." I smile trying to hide the pain.

"Lets get going." He says.

We get to the camping ground.

I get off the car. I could see the disgust on my fathers face.

"What the fuck is she doing here?" He starts yelling.

"Shes is my family. She is practically my daughter." My grandma defends me.

"She is the reason our family has been ripped apart." He yells back.

My mom just sitting there. Acting like everything is just perfect.

"Stop it. Everything is perfect right now. Control yourselves." My mom steps in.

"Are you fucking blind ? Perfect? We are nothing compared to perfect. We are all a fucking mess." I scream at her.

My dad slaps me. "No way to talk to your mother." He yells.

Shawn runs to me.

"Are you okay?" He ask hugging me.

"I'm perfectly fine." I sigh.
