Aurie's POV

"Wake up Ree. We're home" Demi said, shaking me gently.

I opened my eyes, yawning and rubbing the sleep off them.

I got out of the car, holding the empty bag in which Dallas and Mads had gotten my clothes in.

Demi opened the door and we all walked in, straight to our rooms.

Before entering my room, I took a deep breath knowing that it would probably trigger the night of the attempt. Slowly, I pulled the door handle down and entered the room.

"Oh my God!" I shrieked as I ran straight out of the room.

The washroom door was open, lights switched on and nothing but blood inside the washroom and a sharp blade shining from the floor where it lay.

My arms itched to cut and I almost lunged forward into the washroom to grab it when Maddie held me back.

"Aurie, are you okay?" Maddie asked, running towards me.

I snapped out of it and felt my eyes fill up with tears.

"T-there's blood. A lot of blood i-in the w-washroom." I said, panting hard.

"I-I can't go in t-there. T-the b-blade is s-still there. I can't go in there, I can't go in there" I repeated over and over again, tears streaming down my face.

Maddie put her hands on my shoulders, as she looked into my eyes.

"Aurie, you don't have to go in there. Please calm down. We'll get it cleaned it up okay? Just breath...in and out. Match my breathing come on" she instructed.

I did as she said, and took deep breaths.

"You feeling better?" she asked worriedly after a few mins.

"S-somewhat" I said.

I saw her eyes fill up with tears before she pulled me in for a hug. The tears flowed down instantly as she did this and I held on to her.

"I'm sorry Mads, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry" I said through my tears.

"It's okay Aurie...it's gonna be okay" she said, stroking my hair.

I lay in the guest room, not getting the courage to go up to my own room at the moment.

Noah and Wilmer were both home with us since my parents insisted they spend the night here.

My mind was filling up with thoughts about what was going to happen now?

Would I have to tell them about the drugs and alcohol?

Would I have to go to Rehab like Demi did?

Would I agree to go to Rehab?

Would I even be okay?

A soft knock on the door interrupted my thoughts and I sat up in my bed.

"Come in" I said.

My dad entered the room, shutting the door softly behind him.

"Hey baby" he said.

"Dad" I said, my eyes filling up with tears as I met him after what felt like years.

"Hey, hey...what happened Aurie?" he asked concerned as he sat down on my bed.
