Joel's POV

It's been 4 days since me and Lizzie had the fight. We are still not talking. I have been watching TV while I'm think Lizzie is just playing on my computer. Its already 23h00 so I decide to brush my teeth and go to bed. I go upstairs and but the bathroom door is closed so i call out:

"Lizzie?"

No answer
"Lizzie?"

Because i get no response, i just open the door and go in.
Poor Lizzie is sitting on the floor in her own little pool of blood. She looks up at me and I can see her eyes widen.
"Joel?"
"Yes I'm here." I sit down next to her and give her a hug. I notice the deep cuts in her wrists.
"I'm sorry" is all she says before falling unconscious. For a second i think she has died but her breathing inform me that she is alive. I take a moment to look at her but then quickly pick her up and put her in the car. I rush to the hospital. They put me in a room with her. Thank goodness they let me stay with her. I cant bare to be without her right now.

Lizzie's POV

I wake up in a strange room but I immediately recognise the hospital.
Joel is looking at me with a concerned look on his face.

"Joel?"

"Yes?" He looks like he's been crying.
"Why am I here?"

"You-y cu-t your-self."

He is crying now, tears streaming down his face. I try to lift my arm to wipe away his tears but the pain makes me put my hand back. I feel so bad for making him cry. I didnt think i would make it. I thought I would have been dead. But here I am, alive and breathing.
"Joel I want to go home."
"I know babe but you have to wait a little all right?" He puts his hand on mine. I nod and look into his eyes.

~2 hours later~

Uh oh, I fell asleep. Where is Joel?? I scan the room quickly but I dont see him.
"Joel?"
"I'm right here" he says from right next to me. Silly me. I didnt check behind me.
"How are you?"
"I can lift my arm without anything hurting so good i guess"
He smiles
"I'm so sorry Joel."
"YOU are sorry?? No I am the one who should be sorry Lizzie. You have been cutting yourself and I didnt even notice!"
"No, Joel its not your fault.."
"Then who's is it?"
"Oli... He keeps messaging me, saying hes worried about me, asking me if I'm alright."
I can see that he is angry.
"That freak"
"When will I be able to go home Joel?"
"Whenever you are ready princess"
"I'm ready"

I get dressed and follow Joel to the car.
"Joel I'm really not good enough to be your girlfriend" I blurt out " I'm an emotional wreck. You deserve better"
" Elizabeth Dwight, there is no better than you. You are my world, my everything."
I giggle and nod.
The car stops and he opens the door for me. When I get out he kisses me and grabs my waist.
He pushes me onto the couch and i land on my wrists. I let out a scream of pain.
"Damn it, sorry." Joel says
"Its okay"
We stay up until midnight watching movies and then go to bed.
