   I grabbed my chest as I gulped in air. I was on a hospital bed.
"Alice!" Aiden came rushing over to my side, "are you okay?"
"Why doesn't Peggy know I'm alive?" I asked as I looked straight at him.
"Alice you died, right then and there can we talk about this later?" He asked.
"No we can't talk about this later, I wanna know right now." I said quickly.
Aiden sighed and looked up at me "Alice..."
"You knew, didn't you?" He looked at me in pity. "Oh my god, you did. And you didn't want to tell me this why?"
"Fa said not to tell you, and I always wanted to because hearing how much she ment to you I just--"
"Oh my god" I whispered as I rubbed my face in frustration. I finally figure out my friend thinks I'm dead after all these years because she tries to commit suicide. Thanks Fa.
"Alice I'm sorry. But if you're friend knew you were alive she--"
"She'd be dead by now, and she almost was an hour ago, and HER NAME IS PEGGY. God I hate my life so much" I put my face in my hands and quickly looked up.
"I know. You always have to keep everything secret, I know Alice, I know" he said; putting his hand on my shoulder.
"Aiden, why didn't you say anything?!" I asked.
"I don't know, Alice."
I sighed "Okay, I'm good, let me get out of this bed."
"You just died, Alice."
"And now I'm alive. Get me out of here."
Aiden took me out of David's nurse care station or whatever, and we went back to our room.
When Aiden went to go talk with David, or as I insisted on him to, I went to the bathroom and looked in the mirror. Even with muscles, I was still skinny. I had a scar on my face, I was an A cup, and I had black dyed hair. I felt like I would never be good enough for anyone. I always wanted to break mirrors. I hated looking at my scar all the time I don't even know why I kept looking in the mirror.
I walked out of the bathroom and sat in the chair next to the window in our room. I looked out the window.
"You're beautiful, you know" I turned around to see Aiden.
"Yeah as beautiful as dirt" I smirked.
"You are beautiful, Alice"
"I got to go see David. I need some help with some architecture stuff" I got up.
"Alice" he grabbed my arm, "you need everything explain to you, and you need to know I care about you, and that you are worth more than you think."
"Thanks Aiden." I said.
