I wake up Monday morning in my car. I start realizing what happened yesterday and begin to cry. I hop out if the car and run into the hospital. I ask the lady at the front desk"Um do you know what room Luna Hazzel is in?"

   The lady tells me and I walk to it. It was the same room I was in yesterday, I barge in and see Luna still asleep and her mother and brother sat in chairs on either side of the hospital bed. I look down sadly knowing that this scene is all my fault.

"Excuse me Ms. Lee? Can I talk to you for a minute?" I ask. I had to tell her this was my fault. Her mom nods lightly and says with a cracked and shaken voice "T-thank you f-for bringing m-my daughter h-here if I-it wasn't f-for you she'd be d-dead."

  She starts to cry and I put an empathetic hand on her shoulder, but say "No Ms. Lee. It's my fault that she's in there. I did this to her." Tears were forming again in my eyes as her mother looks up and asks "What?"

   I nod my head and say "I-I cheated o-on Luna b-because I was being blackmailed. A-a girl threatened to tell Luna some things that would've messed up everything. I love luna and I now know she won't ever Love, trust, or even like me again, b-but just tell her I'll always love her."

I start turning away until someone grabs my arm turning me around slowly. "You may have hurt her, but you had also healed her. I've noticed for a while she had seemed a lot happier and I didn't know the reason until I saw you and how much you cared for her. Luke I'm not saying what you did was right, but your relationship was worth fighting for and still is. You make Luna happy." Her mom then turns around going back into the hospital room as I stand there not being able to move.

I'm snapped out of it when I feel my phone vibrating in my pocket, my mom. I pick up the phone and say "Mom, mom I'm at the hospital...."

   I go on explaining to her all that had happened. "Luke I'm disappointed that you would do that. But if you really love her, do everything you can to get her when she gets better. Okay?"

    I nod even though she can't see me then say "Yes of course. Um I think I have to go to school, don't i?" My mom says yes so I leave the hospital hesitantly and go to my car. I drive slowly home.

When I get home I go in and change into a black shirt, black skinny jeans and all place converse. I go into a bathroom and put some water on my face trying to wash away the tear stains that covered my face.

   I was truly a wreck at the moment hair everywhere, eyes puffy, face red, bags under my eyes. I look at my eyes and repeat over and over "This is all my fault." I start fidgeting and begin to go through drawers and cabinets looking for one item in particular.

    I finally find it buried in the back of the towel cabinet in a little box. I take the lid off and see my blade. One thing I never wanted to tell Lu about was this. If she knew she would've treated me differently. I put the blade softly to my skin and start to drag it slowly across.

Tears were coming down my face as I say "It's all your fault Luna's in the hospital!" I put the blade away after I'm done and wash up all the cuts. I look at my knuckles which were still red, purple and blue from when I had punched the wall at the hospital.

   I splash water on my face again making me look a little less disgusting. I walk downstairs and go into my car. I had already missed 2 classes so I quickly drove towards the school.
