I woke up on an unfamiliar bed. I looked around, I didn't recognize the room, so I went downstairs and saw alex sitting on the couch watching T.V. he saw me and waved. I just nodded and sat down on the other couch. we watched T.V for a while I an awkward silence before alex' spoke' up. alex tapped me and signed, ' what happened'.  ' I don't wanna talk about it right now'. i signed back. ' it's ok I won't make you say anything you don't wanna say you can tell me when your ready'. he signed back to me. ' thanks'. I signed back. after a while the voices started to come back into my head now that it's quiet.

" worthless"

"faggot"

"nobody like you"

" Alex doesn't like you"

"fat"

it's all to much. I sign t i Alex that I'm going to the bathroom and get up quickly and run to the bathroom. I close the door and slide down it hugging my knees to my chest. the voices overwhelming me. I started to cry as I stand up and open the drawer and look for any type of blade. just when I find one, I feel the vibrations of someone knocking on the door. I remember that I had a notepad so I took it out and wrote " I'll be out in a second" in sloppy handwriting and slide it under the door. I pick up the blade and turn it in my hand. I see something slide back under the door and pick it up. " are you okay I could hear you crying and you've been in there,for a while" the note says. I start thinking. I promised my mom I wouldn't do this any more after what happened so I slide the,note book back under the door and dropped the blade on the floor hoping he would get it.
