Fall For You

Chapter 3

Sarah's POV

I ran down street as fast as I could, just wanting to go home. Tears were free falling from my eyes. All the pain I've been holding in for years came rushing out. So yeah I admit it I'm not as perfect as everyone thinks. In fact I'm nothing near perfect. My life is basically a living hell.

As soon as I got into my empty house, I broke down. I dropped down to the floor crying and screaming. I couldn't do this anymore. I can't take being rejected... again. I went into the kitchen and grabbed a knife. It's the only way I can numb at least some of the pain.

I begin cutting my wrists, watching the blood leak out and drip onto the floor. I leaned back against the wall focusing on the pain in my wrists. Slowly I began to calm down and drift to sleep.

*Next day

I woke up feeling like a mess. Great I have school today too. I wish I could just not go, but I can't. I took a shower and washed the dried blood off my wrists. I straightened my hair and put on my makeup. Today I was wearing a hot pink long sleeved dress with gold heels and gold jewelry.

As soon as I stepped onto the school property, I put my act on. I put on a fake smile, chin up, and walked with as much confidence as I could. As I walked down the hall, people were whispering and laughing at me. What? Did I have something in my face? When I got to my locker, some guy came up to me and said "Did you go home and cry to your mom?" So thats what all this is about.

I ignored it and held in the tears. As I walked to my class I heard people saying all kinds of things about me. "Brooks isn't as tough as she seems" "Pathetic bitch" "Crybaby Brooks". I tried to ignore it, but their words kept repeating in my head. I felt a tap on my shoulder and turned to face the one person I did not want to talk to.

"What do you want Kian? Aren't done making the whole school laugh at me?" I said coldly to him. He looked almost guilty. "Look i'm sorry. I just got mad because you hurt Sam." He said to me. I turned walking away. "Yeah whatever Kian." He grabbed my arm, to stop me. "And I'm sorry about your mom. I didn't know." The tears were building up again and I took a deep breath before facing him. "I forgive you, just please. Stop bringing up my mom." And with that I left again. I couldn't stay at school, I just needed to think.

Kian's POV

She turned to face me with tear filled eyes. "I forgive you, just please. Stop bringing up my mom." She said before leaving the school, which hasnt even started yet. I decided to go with my instincts and run after her. She's hiding something and I want to know.

I pushed open the school doors and looked around. No one. I ran around the school and saw a figure entering the woods. I ran after it and into the woods. "Sarah?" I yelled out. I slowed down to a walk and made my way through the trees.

About 10 minutes later, I heard someone softly crying. I followed the noise and saw a Sarah sitting in the ground. "Oh thank god you're okay." I said. But when I got closer I saw blood all over her arms and legs.
