Amethyst's POV

I woke up to a cold and empty bed. A frown immediately formed on my lips as I rolled around in bed, hoping I just didn't see her. She was gone. Was last night a dream? Surely not. Was yesterday a dream? What if it was?

My thoughts were interrupted by the sound of my phone ringing. I grab it and answer it, knowing it was sapphire, because who else calls at 8:00AM on a Saturday morning.

"Hey, kitten" I say smiling.

"Hi, baby. Did you read the note I left on your desk?" She asked. I shook my head, forgetting she can't see me.

"Oh, uh, no. I haven't gotten out of bed" she just giggles. I love her laugh so much.

"Well, it basically just says that I left at like 7:30, but I didn't want to wake you up because you looked so peaceful. I went home before my parents noticed I was gone" she explained. "I also fell out of the tree. This stupid squirrel threw his freaking acorn at my head, scaring the shiznits out of me, making me fall"

"Are you okay?" I asked, laughing slightly. "That squirrel, I swear, is out to get me. When I first moved into this house, I would always climb that tree, and one time, the squirrel literally called over all of his squirrel buddy's, and keep in mind, I think this was a popular squirrel because literally, I kid you not, ten freaking squirrels came barreling towards me" Sapphire was cracking up laughing, but immediately stopped when my door flung open, revealing my extremely drunk dad. He was slurring/yelling random things I couldn't understand. Before sapphire could say anything, I hung up the phone and shoved it under my pillow.

My dad tumbled over to the bed, his rough hand colliding with my cheek. He pulled me off the bed, flinging me into a wall. I cried out in pain as the doorknob dug into my back. He punched me in the stomach, making me lean over, clutching my gut. He flung my head up, violently hitting it against the door. His hand was tightly wrapped around my neck, holding me up so that I was on my tiptoes, barely breathing. I was scratching and clawing at his arm, gasping for air.

"If you're not going to kill yourself, I might as well do it for you. What's another ten years in prison? I haven't murdered someone in a while" he slurred into my ear. I shivered as his warm breath met my freezing skin. I knew he had murdered someone before. It was his own brother. He was a drug addict and shot is brother. No one, besides me, knows it was him. They all think he was just shot by some random person.

I could feel my face turning blue due to lack of oxygen. "P-please, st-op" I managed to choke out. He just laughed, spitting in my face in the process.

I felt extremely light headed, about to pass out, when he dropped his hand from my neck, leaving the room. I was laying on the ground, trying to get my breathing in a normal pattern. Once I could breath, I crawled into the bathroom, leaning against the wall. I closed the door and opened a drawer under the sink. I reached in and grabbed a small wooden box that held tiny pieces of medal that were slowly killing me. I haven't cut in nearly three days, but now, I had a very strong urge to do so.

I lifted my hand so the blade was hovering over my wrist. I pressed down slightly at first, but pushing it deeper, before sliding it across my wrist. A dotted line of the too familiar crimson red color lined the cut. Along with the next few, all deep, but not deep enough to kill me. I was planning on only doing five, but soon, five turned to ten, and ten turned to twenty. I had twenty cuts lining both of my wrists, each of them leaking blood. I started to feel light headed, either from the major loss of blood, or the closure in my throat from what had happened less than ten minutes ago. I knew I couldn't faint, so I got up, immediately regretting it because of how dizzy I got. I rinsed off my wrists, bandaging them up, before walking back to my bed to check my phone. I had 32 missed texts and 17 missed calls.

From: Kitten
That's it. I'm coming over right now to murder his ass

Before I could read anymore, I heard a knock on my window. I looked over to see a year stained cheeks and red eyed Sapphire. I quickly unlocked the window, letting her inside. She climbs through and engulfs me in a hug. I immediately melted under her touch. She kissed the top of my head before picking me up and walking over to the bed and siting down. I wrapped my arms around her neck, and legs around her waist. We stayed like that for what seemed like ages, but was probably only ten minutes before Sapphire's phone started buzzing. I just nodded for her to get up.

She stood up and grabbed her phone, her face expression changing immediately after reading the caller ID. It was a look of confusing almost.

"What's up, Chris?" She said into the phone. I heard crying coming from the phone.

"M-mom, she's g-going crazy. I have Bea and Benjy with me. They're b-both scared. We all are. P-please come h-home, or at least get us out o-of here" I heard someone say.

"I'll be home in a few minutes" she said and hung up.

"Kitten, do you want me to help?" I asked. She thought for a moment before nodding.

We climbed out the window and down the tree. The second our feet hit the ground, we bolted towards her house, going to save, what I'm assuming were her siblings.
