chapter four

---Autumn---

I wake up to a steady beeping.

My eyes open, and i'm in a hospital room.

I look around and see my parents, asleep, next to me.

"Dad, what happened?" I whisper.

He jolts up. "Autumn thank the heavens you're awake, you had us worried sick!"

"b-but what happened?" I ask again.

"We thought we were going to lose you, Autumn." he says while tearing up. "why, why did you do that to yourself?"

"You don't understand, all my life people have been treating me like I'm garbage, like I'm worthless, and they say I don't deserve to live, and I've tried blocking them out, but my shell cracks and they get to me and I think they're right, and I think I'm worthless, and I think I shouldn't live!" I say

"Autumn, you should have told us so we wouldn't have to find out like this. Now I've already spoke with the doctor, and you need to take daily pills, go to a therapist and he suggested going to a support group." my dad says

I sigh "I hope its not as bad as it seems in the books."

The next morning, I leave the hospital, go home and change my clothes for "support group"

The car ride, was the worst, I could feel the awkward in the air.

"How long have you been doing this?" My mom asks

"I started when I was 13." I reply

"Please, just please try to stop, I don't want to lose you, your my little baby girl" my mom says

"Uhm, this is getting a little awkward.." I say

I get out of the car and head to the door.

I feel a buzz from my back pocket. I pull out my phone to see a text from my mom saying "you'll have fun!"

I turn around "Yeah I bet I'll have so much fun!"

I walk into the building, and head downstairs.

I open the door, and see a people sitting around in a circle.

"Autumn, for a second I thought you weren't going to show up!" Trevor, the head guy says. "Please have a seat next to Michael." he points to a boy with reversed sunk hair.

That's Michael from the coffee shop, god I hope he doesn't remember me.

I awkwardly sit down and try not to catch Michaels gaze.

"Hey you're the girl from the coffee shop a few days ago, aren't you?" Michael whispers.

God Autumn speak he. is. talking. to. you. move your lips Autumn!

"y-yeah, uhm and you changed your hair color.." Nailed it

"Yeah I wasn't really feeling the red anymore, So whats your name?" Michael says

"Grace, Autumn Grace"
