I woke up to my mom yelling at my older brother to wake up for school. I was starting to get up till I felt a seering pain. I started to get up slowly to not cause my body any more hurt than I have already. I started to get dressed and do my hair and makeup when my mom screamed.
"ERIN GET YO BUTT DOWN HERE! YOUR GONNA BE LATE!"
"COMING!" I yelled back.
As I was rushing down stairs I saw the pictures of me and my family, or what was a family. My twin brother, Eric, he died of pancreatic cancer. Then my dad left. So it's just me, luke, and my mom.
In my mind I had just reliezd I'm already buckled in the car.
"Hey sweetie how is it going?"
"Huh? Oh yeah I'm good. Why?"
"Just wondering. You just seem Distant this morning I wanted to make sure you were okay."
"Oh Yea I'm fine thanks."

"No I'm not I'm utterly dying. Why can't you see I'm dying!" "Ugh I hate this. Why can't you see I miss him?!"

"OK sweetie well were at school so hop out."
"K bye"

Here I am. Hell....absolute, and utter, hell.

As I open my locker it jams and strains my wrist and makes it hurt worse than it does already.  I don't have many friends, and out of the ones I do have, none of them know my secret.

"ERIN! COME ON, HUN LET ME SEE MY GIRL!"
"COMING"

Oh yeah I forgot to mention, I have a boyfriend named keagan. He is the one of the few good things that happened to me. A few meaning four.
Those good things are Elli, Cero, keagan, and Ariana.

"Hey guys."
"Come on were gonna be late." Says Elli.
"Oh Elli still quite the goody two shoes are we? And I'm guessing still #1 smart ass?"
"Still a dummy are we? And still smart ass #2!"
"You know me two well."
"Come on let's go" said Ariana
"Last one to class is a mouth breather!" Said Cero.
And with that Elli grabbed my wrist and dragged me to class. Seering in pain I kept my mouth shut. As for I don't want them to know my secret. That I have a blade in my bag and drawer. at home. That I'm misrable. That I self harm...that I cut.
