The only reason

Chapter 1

Kacey

My name is Kacey Summers, 18 and a graduating high schooler, I have long wavy brown hair, green eyes and alot of scars. They're my battle scars. I don't even know why, probably because my mother and father are abusive. I'm not you're typical girl. I'm no where near pretty. But I have my brain. I mean what is beauty without brains? I do drugs. They're my Escape and no one can ever stop me.

I sigh, it was today. Graduation, I was getting ready. I wore my contacts this time, I curled my already wavy hair, I put on my black lace dress and black pumps, and I put light make up on. I did a good job here.

I smile in the mirror, but it faded once I saw my scars. this girl infront of me is weak.

a total nobody, a useless person. I opened my drawer to grab my pills but someone knocked on my door.

"Hey Bitch! You're friend is here!" My mother says.

I sigh and grab my stuff and head out, she slapped me and had an evil smile platered on her face. "Good luck, you'll be needing it." She said as I raced downstairs.

"Kacey!" Luke said hugging me

"Hey I thought you were on you're tour?" I asked

"Yup, had to visit you." He smiled as he grabbed my wrist as I flinched

He stopped and grabbed it again and saw my scars, my deep ones.

"Kacey?" He said looking at me in the eyes.

"I--"

"Whatever. You promised you would stop." He says running off

"Luke! I have my reasons!" I yelled and he kept running.

Great, I just lost my only friend. Luke Hemmings. we've been neighbors for years. and he was the only one who knew about this. I look down and start to walk to the direction of our school. I was seated and they were giving out the awards.

"Kacey Summers!" Our principal says as I went to the stage to give my speech.

"I-" I started but something just splashed on me making me soaking wet, it wasn't raining. It was a prank.. in front of the whole school, everyone was laughing at me, and I was crying. I ran away and I just ran and ran, until the rain started to pour. I have nothing. I don't have my phone, my keys, my wallet.

I lost everything today. Even my abusive parents. I kepy crying and a van almost run me over. I ended up in a old building where I climbed up the top. I just want to die right now. I stepped closer to the end but I didn't jump, I just froze there. I don't even know what to do anymore.

Just one more step. and then I'll die. bye bye world, I stepped and everything flashed before my eyes I thought I was dead, but I ended up being catched by someone I know, and it's one of Luke's friends. I was in his arms and he stared at me.

"KACEY!" He shouted as he let me stand up

"Hey." I sniffled and wiped my tears, my make up is probably running down everywhere.

"Kacey! What the fuck are you doing?!" He shouted yet again.

"I WANT TO DIE MICHAEL!" I said as he grabbed my wrists and I flinched again.

"Cutting again?" He looked sad. I just looked down feeling ashamed

"C'mon. I'm taking you home."

"I don't want to go back to my house." I said angrily and trying to get out of his grip.

"Why?" He asked

"I just.." I said as i felt light headed.

"Fine. I'll take you back to my place."

I fake smiled and nodded, I do not need anyone's pity right now.

*********************************************************************************************

We arrived at his house and I sat down on his couch, he gave me a towel and some clothes as

I changed in his bathroom, once I got out, my bruises were visible. Bruises made by my parents. No one knows, not even Luke. I just don't want to make him sad. Well what am I thinking of, of course he wont care. Kacey get your head together!

"Kacey?" Michael says as he waves his hands infront of my face

"What?" I asked back

"I asked you if you could explain why you have your scars?" He said as I told him everything from when I was born and today.

I was full on crying as he hugged me and I didn't even hug back I just kept on crying but the I stopped.

"I want to die." I said suddenly as Michael looked at me.

"No you can't."

I didn't say anything " Do you want me to call Luke?" He said as I looked at him and begin to cry again, I didn't do anything and just ran off again as he called my name, I ended up in the forest where I collapsed.
