I got called down to to the office, probably because of what happened yesterday night "alex?" The principal says "yes" I say standing up "come on"he says walking back to his office. I walk into his office and sit down in front of his desk "so yesterday night after the football game a girl named Kayla got punched and knocked out, and from what the girl who punched,d her you and jordan called an ambulance, and that you are friends with kayla" he says "that is true" I state "do you know why she got punched?" He asked "um well.... At the school people don't really like her because of how she dresses,what she listens to, and how she acts,they call anyone like her an outcast, but she's the only one, people bully her everyday and even if someone does approve of what they are doing , they do nothing afraid of becoming and outcast like her" I say "oh wow that's horrible" he says "it affects her deeply, even though I only have known her for a couple of days, I could tell she's afraid to get close to people, possibly has depression, I also so scars on her wrist from possibly cutting herself" I say "does her family know anything about this?" He asked "she's a foster kid but her foster mom I don't think she knows about anything that's going on"I say "so she's a foster kid, I want you to continue being friends with her and I want you to make sure she's ok from now on"he says "I'm already doing that sir" I say "good, you are dismissed" he says, I get up and walk out the office heading back to my class

"How are you feeling" carol says walking into my room "better, but I have to pee" I laugh "then go but don't walk to fast" she says "if I walk to fast I might pass out but if I walk slow I'm going to piss my pants great" I say getting up and walking out the room, as I was walking out the door I could hear Carol laughing. Around 2 I get a text from an unknown number

I get up and walk to my window and open it. Now don't think I'm about to kill myself cause I'm not I sit on my roof sometimes. Sitting on the roof, I put my hands in my pocket realizing there was something in it. I pull it out and it's my razor, my eyes go wide, but then I start thinking 'i haven't done this in a while,should I' I start asking myself of I should do it, bit I didn't even realize I was do doing it. I've made about 8 cuts on my wrist, that's when Cole came in the room "kayla, alex is here for you"he says from the door "ok tell him I'm out here" I yell back. Shit. I grab tissue through the window that was on my desk. I rap my wrist up and throw the tissue bask into my room just in time cause alex just had walked into my room "oh hey come out here with me"I say "ok, do I just climb up" he asked "yes and make sure you hold on to the window" I say moving over. He sits next me and I pull down my sleeves to hide my wrist "so what did you want to talk about"I ask "um I got called done to the office about what happened yesterday and um they asked if I was friends with you-" I cut him off and say "get to the point" I say "I told them about what the kids at school are doing to you" he says nervously "what the fuck! He's going to call Carol she doesn't know about any of this!" I yell climbing back inside "I had no choice" he says climbing back inside too "yes you did,  you could have lied" I said pulling up my sleeves forgetting what I had just did "well-what the hell is that" he says pointing and my the tissue on my wrist that was now covered in blood "um nothing" I say "kayla don't you dare lie too me, what the hell did you do!" He yell "nothing!"I yell back, he walks closer to me and I start to walk back hitting a wall.he says nothing all he does is takes my wrist and takes the tissue off "kayla" he says softly "don't say anything I know what your going to say 'you shouldn't be doing this, it's not worth it'" I mock him "no I was going to say from now on I'm going to protect you, if your sad come to me, someone is being mean or beating you up you come to me they will have to deal with me got it?" he says sternly "got it" I say nodding  "now let's get your wrist cleaned up" he says  grabbling my other wrist and leading me into the bathroom. I sit on the toilet holding my wrist while he a gets paper towel and wets it. He neals in front of me and takes my wrist "this might hurt ok?" He says, I just nod and he starts to clean it. When he was done we go back to my room and he says "well I got to go but I'll see you tomorrow ok?" He says "alright" I say, he just nods and leaves. I don't know what I felt but I felt something and it was real.
