Forever Together || Part 2

9 ~ I'm fine.

" Lucas...." I whisper loud enough for him to hear.

He immediately shoots his head to see me, in tears. Then he looks back at Missy and pushes her away. I shake my head and start to walk away.

" No Riley it isn't what it looks like!" He shouts in frustration.

He grabs my wrist, making me turn to him. But my face was already drowning in tears.

" THE FIRST GOD DAMN DAY!" I shout at him.

I flick my wrist away from his hand and run off. I run to the bathroom and cuddle up into a ball. He can't be doing this again. Not now. Not today. He made it amazing for the past hour. But now I can't feel my emotions. Everything is going around my head. My tears flow, slowly. But painfully.

" Awww. Look at little Mrs. Friar now. He doesn't want you! LOSER! IM TALKING TO YOU!!! " Missy claps her hand and laughs.

" He never wanted you as his own. He was just using you to see how fast he can break you."

She flicked her hair at me and walked out of the bathroom. All those words.... All those emotions. Are starting to come out.

All those times I cut.

~ Flashback ~

" Your not worth living Riley. Your just another broken toy in the world that is taking up space." I whisper to myself.

I look at myself in the mirror again. My eyes were red and puffy from crying. But now I'm happy. I'm happy that I'm letting go of the world.

One.

Two.

Three.

And so on. Till I hit 48.

The blood surrounds me while I drown myself in tears.

" This is what I've come to..." I cry.

~ End of flashback ~

All those times I starved myself.

~ Flashback ~

Ok Riley. You eat this apple... Then you'll gain even more weight. I mean like, 74 pounds is heavy for a 13 year old... Right? I set down the Apple on the table. It's fine Riley. It has just been 2 days since you ate. No one will know. No one needs to call you fat anymore. Just love the feeling of your stomach rumbling the living day lights out of you.

I feel a tear drop down my face.

~ End of flashback ~

" No." I mumble to myself.

I shake my head and cry even more.

No one wants me. They only fake it to see how I will end up afterwards. I feel a warm hand being placed on my shoulder. I look up to see a blond girl, with blue eyes. She has a sincere smile planted on her face. It was Maya.

" You okay Riles?" She stroked my arm.

I smiled at her and nodded my head.

" I'm fine...." I mumble to her.

" I know your not Riley. Remember when you drew on a piece of paper, of what I'm fine in a weird don't looks like upside down?" She looks me straight in the eye.

~ Flashback ~

" Maya! I'm fine." I shout at her.

" NO YOUR NOT!" She yells.

" Fine.... I'm fine. Save me..."  I whisper.

" What?" She whispered to me.

She starts to come closer to me. I walk over to my desk, traumatized by what I'm fine, really means. I take out a pen and write I'm fine in a different font that you will normally never see. I turn it upside down. I hear Maya gasp and break out crying.

" I'm so sorry Riley! I was supposed to save you but I didn't.. " she cry's to my shoulder.

~ End of Flashback ~

" I remember." I whisper.

" C'mon. Let's prove to Lucas and Missy that you don't need them. Because you got saved by me once. "

She takes out her hand for me to take. I slip my hand into hers and start to walk out the door. But I already know. Once is not enough. When I take a glance at my locker, I can see Lucas thumping his foot on the ground and his arms crossed, looking for someone. He turned his head towards our direction and our eyes meet. I immediately jerk backwards and turn myself around, tugging on Maya's hand so we can go.

" No. You need to talk to him. This may be my fault but-" Maya started.

Maya made this happen? I pull away my arm as I see Lucas getting closer to us.

" You did this!?" I shout at her.

" It was just a stupid thought that I accidentally told Missy." She mumbled.

" So this isn't Lucas, fault at all?" I whispered.

" Well he is the one who kissed back."

Lucas stood right next to me.

" Riley... Can we please tal-"

" Just get away from me." I frustratedly said.

I ran to my next class and sat down. I can't believe they can do this. They broke what was already broken....

Yay! Two chapters in one day. Yes, I have chapters ready to post but I like to post chapters over time. I posted this chapter because @rowanpeytonlove really wanted me to post a new chapter. 😂.
