"well Eli you're lucky you're alive at this moment. ..." the doctor spoke. He was tall and he seemed to be growing a beard. I was confused, why was I lucky?
"You're under weight, not severly, but enough to mess up your health. And the um wounds on your arm were pretty deep. We had to stitch you up..." he informed us. Everyone's heads turned to me , and they stared at me. They looked worried, but bina&winter seemed more disappointed .
Crap. They know.
"When can I leave?" I asked after a very long pause. I couldn't manage to say anything else, it was too embarrassing knowing that your best friends know you lied to them. They wouldn't look at me in the eyes, I knee they'd act like this if they found out.
"Well you can leave in a couple of hours, after your parents fill out paper work and we find you a new therapist." The doctor said . He wrote something down on some little notebook he had in his hand. Luke's grip on my hand tightened , I hadn't even realized that we never let go of eachother. His touch calmed me so much, there's an indescribable comfort I feel when I'm with luke.
He's like a safe spot for me.
Oh shit your parents are heerree
The little voice in my head began to tell me. This was strange to me, I never hear it unless I'm alone so why is it starting to attack me now.
Hah. Now they're going to know how pathetic you really are.
I squeeze my eyes shut and try to make it go away, but it wont. It taunts me until I start hyperventilating.
Luke is the first one to notice, like always, and begins to ask me
"Elizabeth are you okay? What's wrong? "
The heart monitor begins to beep faster, and the doctors come rushing into my room. All my friends are kicked out and I am left with strangers who are trying to fix my breathing.
They inject something into me and i quickly begin to calm down.
I am so left alone in a giant room only accompanied by my thought.
Oohh someone got caught
"No I didn't. " I whispered in denial.
Are you seriously about to deny it? Godamn you're dumber than I thought.
"Ugh piss off , I'm fucking tired." I say a little louder.
Don't tell me what the fuck to do , you worthless piece of shit.
I have had enough of this fucking voice.
"JUST GO AWAY, YOU'RE NOT EVEN REAL." I yell. Luke races into my room and looks extremely worried.
"Is anyone in here? Eli is anyone trying to mess with you right now?!?" He asks.
I'm astounded by how much he seems to care for me, we literally just met this morning yet he's always the first to be by my side when I'm in need.
"Yeah, I just have this little voice always taunting me."I chuckled.
Wait did I really just say that?!
" a voice? Like a subconscious? Or that kind that like nags at you whenever you are left alone?" He questions me. He seemed to know what I was talking about, and surprisingly didn't give me a weird look.
"Um. I-I don't know... it just always tells me these really fucked up things. I hate it luke, I hate everything." I began to tell him. My eyes started to water, and I felt a knott in my throat. Luke's hand reached to my shoulder and pulled me into a hug. I didn't know what to do at first, since I'm not a person to cry in front of other s, but once his hug became tighter I broke down. I wrapped my arms around his torso and sobbed, harder than I had the night before. Then he place both his hands on my cheeks and looked me in the eyes.
"I'm here for you now okay.." he trailed off.
" you can trust me, and I won't let anyone hurt you." He said.
His eyes had turned into this bright aqua while looking at me. I didn't say anything, I just hugged him again, it felt so nice to be in his arms.
"Thank you." I whispered into his ear.
