Back to classes. As soon as I had woke up on the couch two hours later I was told to go to the cafeteria and eat dinner with everyone else. And tomorrow we were to head straight back into are regular class schedules. But then it hit me. Fear. I was just in the cafeteria with my friends and boyfriend talking about the museums exhibits when it hit me. I said to my friends that I needed to go to the bathroom and rushed to find Anya. Pain. I rush around trying to find her. When I felt and saw it all. Scars all along my wrist, and blood dripping from it. I was panicking thinking I did this. How? How had I? I was sleeping! When Adrian kneeled beside me and took my hands looking at the cuts. " Anya " he whispers, " I didn't do it. " I tell him, tears pouring out of my eyes. " I didn't do it " I cry. I ran to Anya bedroom and open the door quickly and rushing to her. " An. An! " I say catching her face. " we can't do this alone anymore " I tell her, and showed her, her arms. " you see. You can't. You have to tell someone, dad. The court, the headmistress. They can help " I tell her and bring her into me, " and I will be with you the whole time " I promise her, and she sobs into my shoulder making me cry. My sister was in pain because I had died and she saved me. If I hadn't been so quick to get them and attack I wouldn't have and she wouldn't be going through this. " come on " I say and her help her stand. I take her to a chair and have her sit. I go into the bathroom and grab a cloth and wetting it, then grabbing a bowl and filling it with not cold or hot water but both. I take the cloth and bowl out to Anya. I take her arms and clean the cuts with the cloth. Rinsing it in the water making the water a little red. I continue this until the water is probably to bloody. I put the cloth back into the water and leave it and grab two wraps. I take the pink out of one and put it in my mouth so half is sticking out of my mouth, and I hold it with my teeth. I grab my ointment and dap it o to her cuts on each arm. I wrap the wrap around Anya left arm covering her scars so they could heal properly. I pin it in place then do the same to the right arm till it was all completely covered and will hopefully heal. " rest An. " I tell her, " you'll let me tell dad right " she asks, " yes. But I hope you tell him soon " I say to her, I help her to bed and tuck her in then leave her room. Adrian stands looking worried. " has this happened " he asks, I nod sadly. "It's only happened once and there was only one on her arm, she promised she'd never do it again..but she did only this time she didn't know what she did. Before it was anxiety. This time..it was like a trance. "
" Why? Why didn't you tell me?! " Adrian says and stands, I put my finger on my lips and point to her door. He looks at it then me and grabs me by the wrists and takes me to the gaming room and turned up the stereo. " Why! " he says, " and why didn't I tell your father when you told me this stuff was going on with her " he says and sits on the ground against the wall. I go over and slide down the wall and sit beside him. " I don't know why I didn't tell him either. But she promised me she wouldn't do it again. But something's making her do this. " I tell him softly my voice a whisper. " She wouldn't even be having this happen if I didn't rush into the attack at the mall and died " I say. I felt arms around me and pull me into a strong hard chest. I look up to see Adrian hugging me. " don't think like that. " he scolds me, " just tell me things like this Sophie " he says, " you always want us to tell you things but you hide everything " he says, " because I didn't always know what to do myself. " I open, " I was with human people, and my alchemy was hard to control I had I learn myself. " I tell him, " and I was..scared I guess. I had also kinda just loss my mother " I tell him sadly. He hugs me tighter. " I'm here Sophie. " he tells me, I smile and hug him back. There was no more words. I trusted Adrian. Wait! But what about Logan! I trust Logan and I've told him nothing! Logan...I pull away and cough awkwardly. " well..I better get back to the cafeteria " I say and left the game room.
