This one is very short. My creative writing teacher gave us things we could write about and chose to write a story based on the line "I didn't mean to kill her". There's really no plot or point to this one, but I hope you enjoy it.

~~~

I didn't mean to kill her.

She wasn't even supposed to be here. I told her to stay away. To stay home. She didn't listen. And now her blood is on my hands.

I gasp, air forcing its way into my lungs harshly. My body trembles. I can't breathe. I don't know what's going on. My arms feel numb, everything is muted. It's too much, yet not enough. I try to force myself to breathe, and only succeed in making myself panic. The air in my lungs feels toxic.

Slowly, minutes, maybe even hours go by, and I begin to feel myself calming. I can hear what's happening around me, the steady drip drip drip of her blood fills the air.

~~~

Told you it was short. It's not much but I don't think that it's that bad.
