I woke up to the annoying buzz of my alarm clock. I blindly searched for the snooze button, but failed. So I got out of bed, and hit the off button on my alarm. I am so tired, I did nothing but cry last night. My boyfriend of four years dumped me for some stuck up cheerleader Perrie Edwards. I really thought Zayn was the one, but I guess I couldn't see the lying, cheating, prick he really was. I slowly made my way down the stairs, and made myself breakfast. I sat myself down, and ate my bowl of cereal. After finishing barely a half of my breakfast, I threw the rest in the trash. I looked in the fridge, and soon found what I was looking for. My dad's alcohol. I opened a bottle of Cherry Vodka, and chugged half of it. The burning sensation running down my throat made me shiver, but I loved it. I soon heard footsteps coming down the stairs, and figured my mom was up. I quickly stuffed the bottle back in the fridge, and shut the door just as she came down.

"Morning sweetie." My mom said in her chirpy morning voice.

"Hi mom." I said,my voice cracking slightly.

"Honey, look at me." She said concerned.

I looked at her as she examined my face with a worried look on her' s.

"Hailey would you like to tell me why your eyes are bloodshot, and why your cheeks are all red and puffy?" She asked me.

"There's nothing to tell mom." I answered emotionlessly.

"Why does your breath smell like alcohol?"

"I don't know what you're talking about."

"Okay before I open that fridge door, and find what I know I'm looking for, you're going to tell me what's wrong."

"I'm fine okay? Now leave me alone. You know, you're not the only person in this God forsaken house that has shit to do."

"HAILEY ALEXANDRIA JOHNS YOU WILL NOT TAKE THAT TONE OF VOICE WITH ME!"

"I'll do whatever the hell I please alright?" I started raising my voice.

"You come back here right now, and you are not leaving this house until I get my answer. Do you he-"

"ZAYN DUMPED ME OKAY! WE BROKE UP! AND YES MOTHER, I'VE BEEN DRINKING, AND SELF-HARRMING! ARE YOU HAPPY NOW!?" I yelled

"Oh honey, I had no idea. Why didn't you just tell me. I could have been able to help yo- did you say that you were self-harming?" My mom asked realizing what I had said.

"Yeah I did."

"Let me see your arms."

I rolled up my sleeves carefully to avoid the pain, and revealed to my mother my arms full of cuts and scrapes. As soon as my mother saw it, she stepped back as she gasped.

"Oh my goodness honey, are you okay?"

I couldn't take it anymore. I couldn't hold back what was to come, and at that moment I burst into tears.

"Mom." I croaked.

She took me into her arms, and hugged me.

"Oh sweetie, it's gonna be okay. Zayn doesn't deserve you. Not if he broke your heart like that."

"You think?"

"You gotta do something to get him back Hailey."

"I do?"
