Chapter 13

I really needed to talk to my best friend, so much was happening and I had to keep her updated, but she wasn't answering my texts. I got dressed and skated to Dawn's house and used to the key they hid under the mat when no one answered the door.

I walked in, I went up to her room to find her on the floor passed out with a bottle of sleeping pills in her hand, My mouth my a 'o' shaped, "Oh my god.." I started to cry and took out my phone and called 911.

"911 what's your emergency?"

"M-my friend needs an ambulance...!" I managed to say while still crying, "She swallowed a bunch of sleeping pills but I don't know how long go..."

"What's the address and do you feel a pulse?"

I gave them the address and felt for a pulse thank god there was one there still.

Once I was able to see her in the hospital I was so happy, my tears still didn't stop, "Dawn!" I said as she stared at me. "What the hell why'd you attempt suicide!"

She laughed, "I didn't, I had a long day and I couldn't sleep, so I took a few pills I still couldn't sleep so I took a few more and I guess it was to many and I passed out." she shrugged like it was no big deal.

I was still crying, "You're a good liar Dawn I'll give you that I even almost believed you, but the doctors searched you..."

Her eyes widened and her fake smile fell.

"How long have you been cutting?" I asked

Something snapped in her, "Shut up Mrs, perfect life."

"What? I don't have a perfect life."

" You had loving parents, your mom died yah but you got a perfect stepmom. Guys throw themselves at you, You're beautiful, flawless. You have a great boyfriend and Noah who you sleep with, your grades are perfect even though ditch all the time, everyone's suffering but you."

"...Christian hit me, after I told him I was cheating on him with Noah, we broke up, I answered my dad's phone the other day... it was an elementary school two cities over calling saying his son is sick... and needs to come home, he has a whole other family, that's why he's never home. My twin was diagnosed with cancer yesterday it's too late for treatment I was sleeping with her boyfriend who I'm sure I accidently fell in love with... but he hates me now, she'll hate me too if she finds out before she dies." I took a breath then continued, "I needed someone to talk to so I went to my best friends house who I haven't heard from in a couple days and I find her passed out on the floor with sleeping pills in her hand I thought she was so happy all the time had a wonderful life, but I didn't know my own best friend who I love to death harms herself, is clinically depressed and suicidal, the saddest part is me her best friend... can't even save her." I was having a mental breakdown.... I didn't know what to do anymore.

"Calm down I'm so sorry Abby I didn't know I-I just thought I was the only one... I love you to death too."

I was feeling better and started taking deep breaths, "I just don't know what to do anymore Dawn."

"Me either Abby, I was trying to find a way out..."
