My eyes flutter open and the light stings my eyes. I try again and my eyes focus. I look to my left to see Cameron sitting in one of the hospital chairs sleeping. "He's been here since you passed out. He even drove in the ambulance with you. He was the one who found and saved you." I hear my brother say from the end of my bed. I look over at him and he's also staring at Cameron. I look down at my arm and see an ace bandage around it and an IV attached to the back of my hand. I start crying again. 'Why him of all people to save me? I probably look like a mess and he's the one who saved me...'

Someone wipes my eyes and hugs me tightly. "Why'd you do it Bea?" I heard Cameron's voice. 'Why? Because of him...' I cried into his shoulder the memories coming back of my father brutally beating me and my family.

"You worthless bitch!" He slapped me hard. He threw a punch to my stomach and threw me against the wall. I screamed in pain. He put the knife to my stomach and slid it across my abdomen. I screamed louder. He walked away and grabbed his beer as I slid down the wall holding my stomach. Blood was getting everywhere and I passed out.

"Shh shh shh. Everything's okay." In reality, nothing is okay.

I was released later after I had finally convinced the hospital I wasn't going to try it again. I had to go to emotional support groups every Thursday. I was currently sitting on my couch watching Harry Potter And The Chamber Of Secrets while eating popcorn. I was in a hoodie and sweatpants with my hair in a bun. I was having a lazy day okay? It was Friday night and everything kept repeating through my mind about how Cameron saved me. He saved my life.

I'm aware this chapter is extremely short but 1. It's Halloween night (yes I still go trick or treating) 2. I'm going through a lot of emotional pain at the moment. 3. I'm tired and want to go to bed.

As for not updating yesterday and the day before I never said I would update every day and eventually I'm going to settle on one day a week. Thank you so much for reading don't forget to
