Beverly's P.O.V
__________

We talked for a while about just random stuff, I admired her facial expressions she made each time I would tell her a story about recent & past things.

She listened carefully, thats what I liked about her most. But I could never show my feelings, it's not socially acceptable.

I realized I had been staring at her when she snapped her fingers in front of my face. I snapped out of it "uh-uh s-sorry."

Charlie looked at me questioningly and then shrugged it off. "I'll be back, I have to go to the bathroom." She said getting up from the comfortable queen sized bed her parents gave her when they got a new one.

I know she was staring but I shrugged it off anyways. I went to the bathroom looking in the mirror long and hard.

I sighed thinking over my options until I finally just left the bathroom.

Going back to my room I saw that Beverly was curled up in my blankets. My parents and brother had already went to bed from what I'd heard in the hall earlier and I still needed to change into my pajamas.

I crept over to my bureau and grabbed something comfortable Slowly peeling off my shirt and shorts that were covered in dried blood. Unfortunately all the cuts would scab and scar.

I wasn't sleeping, I just wanted to be comfortable. I started thinking of my dad and began getting anxiety. But now Charlie thinks I'm sleeping when in reality I'm watching her undress (creepy I know.) Plus, I cant talk to her about these kinds of things.

UGHHH

she dressed and I immediately closed my eyes trying to go to sleep.

I left a small slit of my eye open seeing her look at me, smile, and then slowly get into bed not trying to "wake" me.

God what am I doing to myself.
