Suicidal

Peyton-

I wake up holding Sabrina in my arms and Beth is sitting on the chair.

Sabrina is awake doing homework.
"Mom can I go home" Sabrina asks quietly and sits up

"No honey they said your not allowed until they know for definite you'll be safe" Beth replies and Sabrina looks at me realising I'm awake.

"Can we go into the hospitals cafe" she asks looking back at Beth

"You're not allowed out of the room sorry" Beth replies and Sabrina looks down picking at the needle in her wrist

There's a knock on the door we look seeing David Shannon and Sarah

"Here" Shannon says annoyed and drops a bag onto the bed

"Shannon" Beth warns and Shannon rolls her eyes

"What, I got her the stupid work what's your problem" she replies and sits down putting headphones on

There's another knock we look seeing Mr Daniele and the science class and some freshmen

"You don't mind that we came to see if Sabrina's Okay Do you" he asks probably sensing the tension

"No it's not a problem" Beth replies and Corey comes over and hands Sabrina a card

"It's from us all" he tells her she nods and looks confused

"I'm going" Shannon says getting up and walks out

"Yeah me too" Sarah replies and leaves then David does

"How are you feeling" Mr Daniele asks and Sabrina shrugs

"Good enough to go home" she replies and he sighs

She takes a pile of work and hands it to him
"I finished everything you gave me" she tells him quietly

"That's the whole textbook, I can't give you anymore work" he tells her and she nods
"Who did you get the stuff from" Amir asks and she looks up

She looks away and picks at the needle in her arm. Her arm starts to bleed but she continues.
I take her hand and she looks at me.
"Your gonna hurt yourself" I tell her and she shrugs.

"We got you a few gifts, as a get well soon thing and to apologise" a girl from freshman tells Sabrina while placing 5 gifts on the bed.

"Apologise" Sabrina asks and looks up

"We know we gave you a hard time" another says and Sabrina rolls her eyes

"You made my life hell. I don't want your gifts I don't want you here" Sabrina says as tears well in her eyes

"Sabrina please just listen" a girl says

"No Olivia you listen, we were best friends. But you believed the stupid rumours and turned against me, you even bullied me and took part in the weakly jump Sabrina day" Sabrina snaps the tears now falling and I hug her
"I don't want them here" she whispers to me and I nod

"I think you should all go" I say and they leave

"I'm sorry, I didn't know you wasn't friends with them" Mr Daniele says and leaves

Sabrina breaks down crying and I rub her back
"Why don't you see what they got you maybe they're sorry" Beth says and Sabrina opens the gifts

It's a few snow globes, I see a tiny piece of rope and a small toy blade
"Yeah looks like they're sorry" Sabrina replies and throws the snow globes across the room landing them in the bin

"What's wrong with snow globes" I ask and she looks at me

"My Grandma used to get me them when she was alive" she replies quietly

I hug her and Beth clears away the mess
"What do you both want for food" she asks

"Nothing" Sabrina mumbles and Beth sighs

"You haven't ate for a few days. You need to eat" Beth replies

"Fries" Sabrina answers and Beth looks at me

"I'll have anything. Do you want the money" I ask and she shakes her head

"No it's fine" she says and leaves the room

"Hey don't worry about them, you have me" I say and she looks at me

"But What If I do something or you hear something and leave me" she whispers and I hug her

"I would never leave you" I tell her
