Carson

When Anna and Sam come down, they won't meet my eyes either.

I know what they did.

Weren't they supposed to be my friends?

My eyes water. I know I've been acting like a bitch lately, but them doing this to me...

The table is silent.

No one will look at me.

"Look at me." I beg.

Nothing.

"Look at me!" I yell.

Their eyes flicker over.

"What happened last night?"

No reply.

"Why would you do this to me?" I cry.

Anna begins to speak. "Carson-"

"No! Just shut up! You did this on purpose!" I screamed, tears trickling down my cheeks.

I ran outside, sitting down on the porch and sobbing into my hands.

"I wish I could forget them. I wish I could just wake up, and never remember any of this." I scream.

My voice is breaking.

As is my heart.

"You don't mean that." In front of me is Bell, a hand on her hip.

She stares down at me, a sad look in her eyes.

"I do! This would all be so much easier if I wasn't here. Amnesia would be so easy. It would be my

escape." I wail.

"Stop." Bell says, voice cracking. "You have people that care about you-"

I cut here off there. "But I don't. I should have known coming here was a mistake!"

I go back to sobbing, my sobs sounding more desparate now.

And all I can think is...

Why?

What did I do?

Standing up, tears silently running down my cheeks, I moved towards the docks.

Almost as if in a trance.

I stare down at my reflection.

And I wonder.

What is wrong with you?

What is wrong with...me?
