Suggested Song: My Life by NF

Colby's POV

"Omg that felt soooo good!" I hear Crystal yell from the bedroom.

I giggle to myself and went to get a glass of water from the kitchen.

I hear crystals phone ring and she answers it.

Suddenly, she runs out in panic.

"Colby! Get dressed! I think Cassidys hurt herself again!" She yells as she gathers things together and chucks some pants on.

My heart beat started speeding up and I quickly get dressed.

We run to the car and get in, when I realise Cass had called me several times.

"Call her! I'll drive" Crystal says as she jumps in the drivers side and I get in the passengers.

I dial her back, but she doesn't answer. I try again, but she still doesn't pick up.

Then, my phone dinged and said that I had two new voicemails... from Cass!

I quickly opened it and put it through Bluetooth so Crystal could hear it too.

"Colby... it's me. There's someone in the house. I'm home alone and I'm so s-scared... I... I don't know what to do. I'm locked in my room, but I can't get out. I can't call 911, there's something wrong with the connection... p-please call the police... I-I need help!"

The first one made me anxious. Her voice, she sounds so panicked.

"Colby... I-I don't have a lot of time... but... I just wanted to s-say... I love you... you have been a good friend to me. Please tell the same to Crystal... and S-Sam. I'm so s-sorry."

My eyes watered. I looked at Crystal and she looks terrified. She picks up the speed and slams her foot on the gas.

Suddenly, I realised I had one more voice message from Cass. I opened it

"Surprise surprise..." a familiar voice whispers in the phone and hangs up.

I can't pinpoint the voice, but I've heard it before. The tone, the pitch, the smug way they talk. It mocks me.

We pull up to the apartment and there's police everywhere.

My heart breaks when I see it.

An ambulance bed with the shape of a body, about Cassidys size, with a white sheet over her.

They are rushing to get her in the ambulance.

I run over to one of the police cars and desperately search for answers.

"Excuse me Sir. I-is the girl who lives here ok... I-I need to know.. s-she's my best friend"

The older officer looks at me, sorrow in his eyes.

"Son... we... don't think she's... gonna make it... I'm sorry"

My heart stops. Everything is blurry. It's all so wrong. She can't leave. I want her. I need her. She's my everything. She's the very reason I exist. She's my world, the blood that flows through my veins, the oxygen in my lungs, the love in my heart, the nerves in my body, the thoughts in my head.

And on top, she's what holds that all together...

She's my skin and bones.
