Being a Lovato was never easy

Chapter 22

Demi's POV

I can't believe Ellie ran out of the room like that, she should know that she can't run from her problems. All I am trying to do is teach her what the adult world is truly like, but she happens to be ungrateful for her older sister showing her what it is really like.

I obviously couldn't allow her to run off like that so I followed after her. Ellie ran up the stairs at an incredible speed (I found it difficult to keep up) and straight into her bedroom. Of course, where else is she going to believe she is safe. I'm guessing she locked the door from the inside because as much as I tried I couldn't force to door to open.

I decided to knock on the door allowing all of my anger to be released with each knock that hit the locked door. Ellie wouldn't answer which was starting to frustrate me. When would she ever grow up?

I finally prised the door open but when I walked into the room Ellie was not in sight. I turned to the right and noticed the bathroom light was on. I slowly approached the door and listened in on what she was doing.

All I could hear was Ellie's sobs, I knew that whatever she was doing in the bathroom it couldn't be good. No matter how many times my fist collided with the door, it just wouldn't budge.

"Ellie open the door now!" I tried to be as calm as possible to try and get her to come out of her room but she still didn't respond.

Then I remembered that I had the key to her bathroom somewhere in my room. I ran as fast as I could into my room and looked everywhere for the key. I finally saw it carefully placed next to the photo of me and Ellie that was on my bedside table.

Just looking at the photo made me feel guilty for what I did to Ellie, she didn't deserve it and now she is hurting herself. I have damaged her recovery.

I made my way back to her bathroom, my head filling with thoughts about what will happen to Ellie and how I will ever be able to make it up to her. I will understand if she wants to move back in with our parents.

I unlocked the door eventually and the sight I saw made me scream at the top of my lungs. Her blood was staining the floor and it was falling out of her arms at a rapid pace, I started to freak out. I picked up a towel and applied pressure to her deep cuts to make an attempt to stop the bleeding with my right hand. With my other hand I dialled for an ambulance.

Ellie's POV

All I could hear was an irritating beeping noise coming from the right side of me, can't somebody turn it off it's really annoying.

I made an attempt to open my eyes so I could see what was making that awful noise but they wouldn't move in the slightest. It was beginning to infuriate me that I couldn't see anything going on around me.

I could hear footsteps entering the room and walking next to me. "Have you got in contact with her parents yet?" It sounded like a man who had an extremely deep voice.

"No I'm afraid not" a women said, sorrow was highly clear in her voice.

"Well her sister is outside, do you think it would be advisable to allow her in?" The man questioned.

"She is the only relative that has turned up and we do need to find out what happened to cause this much damage to her."

Somebody left the room and I could hear some mumbling coming from outside. After a couple of minutes somebody walked in but with much lighter steps then the man who had recently entered.

"Ellie I am so sorry, if I could turn back time I would make sure this never happened to you." Oh great Demi's here, the last person I wanted to see, well hear.

She is the reason I did what I did in the first place and another reason I am probably going to be traumatised for years to come. I always knew that she was the devil but nobody ever believed me, IU wonder if people will start to now or if she will come up with an excuse as to why this happened and they believe her and not the victim.

I should be used to that anyway she has always been seen as the perfect sister, me well I have always been the burden on the family, a waste of their time.

I think I have been here for several hours and I have had Demi non stop talking in my ears about how sorry she is and that I don't deserve this. I don't believe her though, if all of what she says is true than why do it in the first place?

All I want is for the beeping to stop and to be able to open my eyes.
