One Day Can Change Everything

Chapter 13

I arrived at the hospital and headed up to Crystal's room.

"Hey babe." I walked closer to her and sat near her, placing the clothes on the table beside her. She opened her eyes and weakly smiled. They took the tubes off of her. She looked at me and started crying.

"No no no. Why are you crying? What did I do?" I held her hand tightly.

"I thought you left me, I woke up and you weren't here. I thought you were just like all the others, stayed with me to feel wanted and just leave me." she said in between tears.

"Oh my god, I'm so sorry, I didn't leave you and I never would. I went back to the hotel to get you some clothes and for myself as well. How could you think I'd leave? I'd never do that."

"They all say they'll never leave and then what happens? They leave and I'm left alone, stupid and with a with a broken heart."

There was a long silence, then she spoke up.

"Why did you save me? You should've just let me die."

"I was going to ask you why you jumped, but since you asked, it's an obvious answer. I couldn't have just let you drown and die. I had to save you, I needed to. I'm just heartbroken you tried to leave me, why? Why did you jump, and why did you cut? I thought you weren't doing that anymore."

"When we were together and you were singing One Less Lonely Girl to me, someone recorded it and posted it online. I saw the comments and they just bothered me so much. I can't stand when people say bad things about me. Even beliebers were saying I was a "slut, attention whore, ugly", my own family was saying that. I couldn't take it, I believed them, every single one of them. Every time I thought of suicide I always thought of drowning myself but I never really had the chance to since I never went swimming. When you were gone I walked to the deep end and took out my razors, cut myself and jumped. At first I was struggling for air but then everything went black. I wish you didn't save me. I finally would've gotten what I deserved all along."

Tears were streaming down my face. My life did this to her. My beliebers were hurting her. It hasn't even been 3 days and this happened.

"I'm so sorry. I should've had more security, no one was supposed to be there. I'm so sorry, this is all my fault. I should've never left you alone in the pool, this is all my fault. I almost lost you."

"Stop it, stop blaming yourself, they were all right. Maybe I am a slut, maybe I am just getting attention from you, maybe I am ugly, I'm everything they say. I'm a fuck up, no one loves me, I deserve to di.."

I stopped her mid way and smashed my lips onto hers. I caught her off guard but she kissed me back. She sat up and I pulled her onto my lap and deepened the kiss. After a few minutes I pulled away.

"Crystal, I've been wanting to tell you this for a while now. I'm in love with you."
