Harper

I quickly opened the door and took off my shoes. I ran into Erika's room and saw that she wasn't there

Shit I thought

I quickly ran up the stairs and into Nick's room and saw she wasn't there so I checked his bathroom and saw that she wasn't in there either . I ran out and into Jake room. When I was in Jake's room I noticed that the bathroom door was locked.

"Erika open up" I yelled banging on the door
"No" I heard a mumbled response
"C'mon Erika please" I said desperately wanting to help my friend

I waited a few moments until she responded

"Ok" I heard her say

I heard foot steps and then I saw the door open. My eyes widened at what I saw. I saw Erika with at least 15 newly cut scars across her arm,her make messed and her hair was a mess.

"Oh My God" I said but my hand was covering my mouth a bit

What I saw was very disturbing but sad at the same time. Erika had about 5 cuts on her right arm,7 on her left,7 on her left leg and 10 on her right leg ,her hair was in a messy bun and her make up was a mess

"Erika,why would you do this?" I asked while holding her up

She didn't respond

"Erika please talk to me"

Once again she didn't respond

"OK" I sighed

After I said that she passed out onto the floor

"ERIKA" I shouted

I tried to shake her awake but it didn't work,I shook her again but it didn't work, I then took out my phone and dialed 911.

"911 what's your emergency"
"My friend passed out on the floor and she's bleeding from her arms and her legs" I explained to the operator
"Ok ma'am an ambulance will be there soon"
"Ok please hurry" I said before hanging up the phone

I got up and went to get 4 towel from the cabinet.Once I got the 4 towels, I went back to Erika and put the two towels on her right and left arm and I did the same with her legs. I heard the ambulance down the street.

"Harper..." I heard a voice say

I turned my head and saw Erika. I could tell she was struggling to keep her eyes open.

"Erika...why would you do this" I said in tears

She was silent for a few moments but then began to talk

"It's...its because...I love you...I love you more than a friend"She stuttered out and her eyes began to slowly close again

The paramedics came storming in with a stretcher and began to take her pulse and other stuff like that. Once they were done with that they started to take her into the ambulance. I walked outside to see the rest of team 10. Tessa came up to me and hugged me, as I started hugging her back and crying into her shoulder.
  But the whole time in my mind I was thinking.

Erika Costell loves me...
