mom hasn't come out of her room in a long time. I am going to school every day. I deserve all the bullying that I get. I think about Raven. Erin reminds me of her, kinda goth, quiet, beautiful. Raven was always beautiful. It was my fault she died. I deserve all the bullying I get.
In the hallways, me and Erin are pushed against walls, called at. We are hit with paper balls.
It doesn't get to Erin. She fires back insults. She laughs at paper balls.
She is over at my house. Mom isn't home. She came out of her room for the first time to go to the bar. Erin's kisses are taking me away from all the bad things. She is like an oasis of water in a desert.
Mom doesn't come home that night. Erin and I kiss and talk all night. We watch her favorite show on Netflix. I start to cry after we are done with the show. She cradles me in her arms. I end up falling asleep in her arms.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The bullying has gotten really bad. I have a break down every night. Erin has to hold me while I cry, then she leaves out of the window. I can't do this. I don't want to burden Erin with my sadness or breakdowns. I want to die and I think I am going to do it.
I write my note.
I get the rope and I set a date.
There is no turning back now.
