I had the blade in my hand, up to one of my wrists.
The bullying had only gotten worse I thought to myself.
I'm not a fighter.

Finally, the tension had been built up for too long, I dug the blade into my skin about a quarter of a millimeter, just deep enough to make me bleed. I created a small cut, It was painful.
It bled horribly, I quickly grabbed a few band aids, putting them on vertically, my cut had gone horizontally.

I sighed,"I can't do this.." I muttered under my breath.

"Can't do what?" I heard a voice a few feet behind, it was at my door. Luckily I had hid my blade just seconds before they entered. I quickly pulled down my long-sleeved jacket, it covered the cut well enough.

"Just thinking out loud.." I said as I looked back, and saw my big sister, Alex.

"Whatever, Nichole..." She said and walked out.
God dammit, that was close. Cutting isn't my thing, I'd quickly decided.

I let out a long, painful sigh. My cut had swelled up a little, it hurt so bad.
I have to wash it I thought.

I snuck into the bathroom, and quickly washed it with cold water, gently rubbing it. Time for the soap, I knew it'd sting.

I poured a little bit of hand soap onto a soft rag, and dabbed it on the cut,"SHIT!" I'd yelled in pain. Gahh...

5 minutes later, I'd cleaned it, and put new bandages on. I sighed, it felt better to be clean.

Short Chapter! I know...
But what do you think? It's a short story, after all. Unless you end up loving it, in which case it might end up being a series.

See ya, love ya!
