The Bass Player Who Stole Her Heart

Lunch Time With The Spawn Of Satan

  Trigger warning. Also if you have an eating disorder, or depression or anxiety, I'm here I swear. I will help as much as I can. You can beat it I promise.

                         Jordan had finally convinced me to leave the bathroom and go to second period. I had art then, so it wasn't to bad.  I started thinking about my friends though... My old friends... I miss Saffire... She was basically my double.. She was so great, and she helped me through a lot as a kid. She was a great friend. She never judged me... She was bullied too though and I hated that for her. She was a grade above me, I remember when we first met.. I will never forget it

*Flashback to Sixth Grade*

I was sitting on the swing thinking about my brother... He was being really mean lately and he said some mean things.. I was sitting there lost in thought when i suddenly felt a pain in the back of my head and i fell forward. I look up and saw some of the popular cheerleaders laughing at me. "Oh look girls, she's gonna cry. Haha she's so pathetic. I mean seriously how weird can she be? She has rainbow hair. What a freak." Charlotte said. The other's just laughed and started kicking me. I just curled up in a ball and whimpered. Suddenly Charlotte was thrown to the ground and i closed my eyes tight thinking someone else was going to hurt me. Instead a girl held out her hand and helped me up. "The names Saffire. But you can call me Saf." She winked and turned to the other girls" I swear if I ever see you hurting her again I will personally kick your ass, then your daddy's will have to give you those new nose jobs. Now scatter."  Stacy and Miranda I think there names were helped Charlotte up and ran away. Saffire looked at me and said "You got a name? or and I just gonna have to call you skitt?" She laughed and looked down. "My names Scarlett.." I whispered. She looked at me and smiled softly, "well Scarlett, I'm gonna call you skit. You remind me of a pack of Skittles and I love me some skittles." She laughed, it sounded almost angelic... Maybe she was my guardian angel.. I shook my head at the thought "Alright, uhm.. What grade are you in Saf?" I asked genuinely curious. "I'm in seventh, but seeing as you're pretty smart we might have some classes together. Dont worry, I'll show you around some haha."

*Timeskip to Scarletts Freshman Year*

  Me and Saffire have been closer than ever. She has a cousin named Jordan who I met one day at her house, He went to a different Middle School than us. He's in the same grade as me. He's supposed to be coming to this highschool though and I can't wait. He's really awesome. Maybe now I'll have more than one friend, I hope he wants to be my friend.   I walked into the cafeteria  and immediately spotted Saffire with her black and green hair. I ran up her her and jumped on her. "Scarlett You're gonna kill me one day haha" Saffire started laughing and set me down. I pouted "Saffireeee I thought Jordan was supposed to start school today?" Saffire smirked "Awe does my little Skit have a crush on my cousin?" She laughed and messed up my hair . I growled and bit her hand "No I don't and dont touch the hair i worked on it for hours. " Saffire just laughed and waved me off. Suddenly i felt someone lift me up and i started kicking he leaned down and whispered into my ear "calm downAngel it's just me" I immediately relaxed into his arms and inhaled deeply blushing slightly i turned and burried my head into his chest "I'm sorry" I said, he just chuckled and held me closer "It's alright love." I heard a camera and looked at Saffire. "Please god tell me you didnt take a picture of me." I pouted as she snapped another one "I would but you're cute when you're angry" Saffire laughed and ran away, I chased her but i got lazy and walked back to our table. Finally she came back and asked what we we're doing that weekend "I'm not doing anything but sitting at home." I replied," I'm probably gonna review some work." Jordan laughed and said he was going skating with some of his friends.

A few hours later school was over and I was walking home with Saf. I needed to talk to her.. "Saffire?" I asked, "hmm?" she looked at me. "How long was it since you last ate anything?" I seriously worry about her. "I uhm.. I ate this morning remember?" She laughed it off slightly.. "Brianna Saffire Lynn tell me the truth, right now." I said, she looked at me and said it had been about three weeks. I freaked out and looked at her. "Wh-Why though? Saffire, you are beautiful.. you're almost perfect.. Why are you doing this?  It hurts me to see you like this.. " I wipe away tears and pull her into a hug. "you need to eat something okay?" I look at her and drag her to my house, i make her some lunch and i sit down beside her and eat my own. "Scarlett, thank you so much. I promise I'll start eating again" I smile as saffire says this and finishes her food. "Alright hon, call me whenever you need me. "I say and she get up and walks to the door "alright lovely, I will" she says as she leaves. I hope she will.. I can;t imagine losing her. She's basically my sister. 

    Its probably a little after 12am and I'm trying to sleep but I feel like somethings wrong. I get up and call Saffire, she doesnt answer 'maybe shes asleep' i think. I try again but she still doesn't answer. I grab my jacket and some shoes and walk down stairs i slip my phone into my pocket and put my shoes on, i walk outside after i grab my keys and run over to Saffires house. I see an ambulance and police cars. I run under the tape and go to the cop, "Sir what happened here? Is everything alright? Where's Saffire?" I ask fast "Ma'am I'm gonna need you to go back to the other side of the tape" "NO TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED TO SAFFIRE" I scream. "Ma'am you're friend here... She.. She committed suicide. She was malnourished and we got a call from the neighbors saying the heard a gunshot. I'm so sorry." The cop replies, he keeps talking but I dont hear him. I start crying, I know I'm crying, ' I dont understand... Why would she.. She just left me... here alone.. who's gonna protect me... who's gonna be the one who gets me ready for the dancers and prom? Why?!' Suddenly everything goes black and i feel cold.

The next morning I wake up in the hospital with jordan at my side crying "Scarlett I can't lose you too.. I love you please wake up... Please..." He's sobbing into the blanket and I put my hand on his shoulder he jumps and looks at me " Scarlett?! Thank god I thought.. I thought you were gone.. Please never leave me.. Please?" He wiped his tears away and i nodded. I felt numb.. I don't know how I'm gonna handle this..

*Flashback End*

Jordan shook my shoulder to get me to snap out of it, I looked at him and blushed "I'm sorry, I was just thinking... We had a block period together during third period. So we both had third and fourth then lunch, I guess i had spaced out all through the class.. I looked at jordan "let go to the bathrooms" He nodded and walked with me. As soon as we got there I broke down crying and fell to the floor. Jordan pulled me into his lap after a while we went to the lunch room and got some food. As I was walking out of the room Charlotte stopped me and invited me to sit with her friends at the cool kids table. I told her I would if Jordan could sit there with me. She agreed almost instantly and led the way. I sat down and pushed my food around, after a while Charlotte stood up on the table and said "I need to make an announcement Scarlett" She pointed to me " Is an emo freak and she cuts herself. Her parents hate her and leave her alone all the time and her 'best friend' killed herself so she wouldn't have to spend anymore time with a fuck up" Charlotte started laughing along with everyone else. I ran to the bathrooms and as soon as I got in to them I collapsed, I felt like I couldn't breathe, who told her?! Jordan pulled me into his lap for the second time that day and  held me for the remainder of the day. We skipped our last two classes and he carried me home. When we got to my house I unlocked the door and he carried me up to my room, we put on some movies and cuddled for the rest of the day. He had to leave around seven to go home and eat dinner with his family.. After he left I was all alone. I didn't know what to do.. I was so sad and everything hurt.. I walked into my bathroom and felt under my counter until I felt the cool metal that was taped under the sink. I pulled it off and took my jacket off. I sliced once.. Twice... Three times... I kept cutting until my arms was covered in cuts and blood.. It felt so nice, it was an emotional release.. Then I passed out..
