Chapter 18

___________________

I lay in my bed. Curled in a ball. Crying my eyes out. I've been ignoring my family's pleas to go downstairs. I'm crushed. Cameron has never been the kind of guy to do that. He's been cheated on himself! Why would he ever do that?

My phone has been going off for the last hour, but I could care less. I don't want to hear any apologizes or have people asking me what happened. Everything will be better tomorrow night. Tomorrow's the last day of school before I get to go on vacation. Thankfully I'll be far away from Cameron. We're going to New York City. It's a short vacation but atleast I'll be able to get away from this.

I hopped off my bed and dragged myself to my vanity. Red puffy eyes. Tear stained cheeks. Masscarra running crazily on my face. My hair looks like a bird flew into it. I look terrible. I think monsters would be scared of me.

I walked away from my mirror so I could go to my door. I grasped the doorknob gently. Ever so slightly pulling it my way.

When it was completely open I peeked my head out. I looked for anyone in the hallways. The last thing I wanted was to be stopped.

Quickly I made a run for it to the bathroom. As soon as I made it in I slammed the door shut.

I twisted the lock. I walked further into my bathroom and stopped once I made my way in front of my mirror. I looked at myself again. I knew what I had to do. I opened the drawer and looked for the razor blade. When my eyes landed on the silver rectangle, I slowly reached for it. I picked it up and pulled it out of the drawer.

This will make it a lot easier. I thought to myself. I held the blade between my thumb and index finger. I studied it. Looking at the blade and how it reflected me. I looked horrible. Thankfully this will help.

I've never been the girl to cut herself to let her emotions out. Although many people say it relieves their stress and pain, I don't believe in that method. And I was going to cut myself now.

I grabbed the bag and used the blade to make a straight cut through the packaging. I threw the blade back in the drawer and closed it. Pulling open the bag I inhaled the floral scent that the makeup wipes possessed. Lavender filled my nose.

I put my hand in the bag and pulled a single wipe apart from the hundreds of others.

I brought the wipe up to my face and dragged it across the makeup stains. Slowly they disappeared as I kept dragging the moist wipe across my face. When I was all done. I smiled at myself. Although I felt broken and crushed on the inside. I couldn't help but smile at the real me on the outside. My makeup was removed giving me a natural look. Completely natural.

I unlocked the bathroom door and opened it. I took a deep breath before walking out. Now that I felt human again I was confident in speaking to my family.

As I walked down the stairs I couldn't help but feel happy. The sun was shining through the window making everything seem perfect. Except it was exactly the opposite of that. I feel like I'm having mood swings or something. Because my mood has changed too fast in the past ten minutes. Maybe I'm bi-polar.

I walked through the kitchen, but to my surprise I saw no one. Great my parents probably went to get someone to drag me to a therapist. Fun. Okay it's most likely not that. But they surely left without me.

I saw a yellow post-it note lying on the counter. I curiously walked towards it. Adjusting my eyes, I stared at the neat handwritten note.

"Gracie,  We decided to get out of the house tonight so you could sort things out. Feel free to invite a friend over or go over to a friends house. Whatever you feel like doing. We'll be back tomorrow afternoon. Just remember to lock the doors! We're sorry you're upset sweetie. If you need anything just call.
Love, Mom and Dad."

I was actually glad. My parents were so understanding and caring. I was truly grateful to have them. I wouldn't want anyone else to be my parents.

My bad mood was lighten now. And that was probably for the better.
