How To Save a Life

Chapter 1

"How could she do this. All the love gone." I whispered to myself as I walked to my "thinking spot". The one I had loved for two years broke me. She stabbed me in the heart and broke me into countless pieces. I curled in the corner of my thinking spot. It's a cold winter evening, no one is around. I thought to myself "soon" as I went numb. The cold no longer bothered me. My grandpa came to the door and said "come inside before you get sick" i looked up slowly "I'm okay. I'm just thinking stuff through. I'm not cold honestly." He nodded and headed back inside. Soon. It ran through my head as I lost track of time with the planning. Planning is the key. The effortless plan. The perfect plan. My thoughts were interrupted by my sister yelling out the door "Raven come here I need help" I get up "yep this is gonna be tough" I said to myself and I got up with a sigh to go inside. I stepped through the door. The heat hit my face. My corgi greeted me and jumped in my arms. I ran to my sister to see what she needed.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Finally I get to sit down in my bed" I say to myself. I lay there staring into space. I look through my phone and find old pictures. Tears fill my eyes as I see pictures of me and my once girlfriend at a pride parade. We had rainbow flags painted on our faces and rainbow shirts. Her hair was dyed rainbow while I had a rainbow streak. The colors faded, like her love for me. I throw my phone against the wall. I rolled over and buried my face in my pillow. My sister, Heather, walked in and saw me crying. She ran to me "Raven what's wrong? Your getting makeup everywhere" she ran out to get a makeup wipe for me. She came back and comforted me. She asked me what's wrong once again. I refuse to answer. "Raven answer me. You have to talk to me" she grabbed my face. Finally I spoke "S-she..left me" I said bursting into tears. My little sister holds me tightly wiping my tears. I gasp for air as she takes my phone and deletes the pictures and videos of me and my once girlfriend. A few minutes pass and she leaves me alone in my room. I find my old friend from a year before. "Hello old friend. I never thought I'd have to welcome you again" I welcome him like a family member. He once again became my best friend. He helps me with my problems. Always. His brother joined him. Together, they controlled my life for a short time. They gave me a warm welcome. They brought me a gift. It pierces my skin. The brothers control me once again. "Together again at last. I knew you'd come crawling back to us" they taunt.
