Drown

*Beep beep beep*

I wake up to the sound of something beeping, something attached to my arm and hand. My head aches and so does the rest of my body, what's going on. I look around the room seeing that I'm not at home or at the concert dressing rooms. "Chelsea" a voice says and I look over to the door seeing Oli, he walks over to me and sits on the chair besides the bed. "Chelsea I'm so sorry" he said, "she's really gone isn't she" I said as i looked at him, "yes Chelsea" he answered.

I let out a sigh and closed my eyes letting a single tear fall, "Chelsea there's something we need to talk about" he said and i looked up at him. "Why do you do this to yourself?" he asked and i was confused until i looked down and saw that my arms were exposed. I looked back at Oli with tears in my eyes, "I'm sorry" I cried and he leaned over to hug me. "Hey it's going to be okay and I need to know why" he said calmly, "I've been bullied at school, it's been hell" I sobbed and his face turned to anger. "You have been bullied" he said raising his voice and I slowly nodded, "why didn't you admit it when I asked the first time" he said and I looked down shamefully. "I'm sorry" I said again, "well look you'll be moving and living with me" he said and i looked at him wide eyed. "But I'm 18" I said and he nodded, "yes but I don't think you'd be able to manage on your own and also you need the support" he said and I hugged him tightly.

"Aren't I intruding?" I asked knowing Hannah hated me so much, "of course not" he said with a reassuring smile. "Shuffle over" he said and I tried to do the best I could and then he hopped on the bed and pulled me into his chest letting me rest. It was calming to say the least but at the same time I was still hurting, I wanted my mum but now she was gone.

——— time skip/ moving in ———

I had all my things and Oli was driving me to his house, I was so nervous that I was living with him now. I swear this was a joke because Hannah hates me with a passion, "we're here" Oli said as he pulled up into the drive way. I looked at the house and rubbed my arm reassuringly before getting out of the car, I sighed and followed his lead. I got out and got my bags and Oli helped me bing them into the house and into a spare room that was in the house. "Make yourself at home and give a shout if you need anything" he said placing my bags in my room before leaving and closing the door behind him.

I looked around the room and sighed before opening one of my bags, I took out my small bag that had my blades and placed them in the draw. I looked out the window and sighed before closing my eyes, I missed mum so much. I got my clothes out and put them in the empty draws neatly folded and then went to the closet and put my shoes in the basket that was in the corner. It didn't take me long to sort my stuff out so I just went into the kitchen where I saw Oli and Hannah in the kitchen. Laughing and smiling at each other until Oli turned and saw me. "Oh Chelsea how are you settling in?" Oli asked, "just fine thank you" I said as I sat int he kitchen bar stool. "Hey babe I'm just gonna go out and get some eggs" Oli said to Hannah as he kissed her on the cheek.

Once Oli left Hannah looked at me and glared before walking towards me, "listen you little bitch don't try any funny business" she said through her gritted teeth. "You mean telling my best friend his girlfriend is a cheating and lying bitch oh with pleasure" I said with a smirk and she just looked at me annoyed. "I know you have a little crush on him and sweetie he'll never love you he only feels sorry for you" she laughed before slapping me across the face. "I hate having you here and I only agreed to make Oli happy and because your an unstable bitch" she yelled at me, now I know why I hate her. "You're mum probably gave up because she couldn't deal with you" she laughed and tears threatened to fall but I didn't let them. Then her phone rang, "excuse me" she said with a smirk as she walked towards her's and Oli's bedroom and I ran to my room closing the door shut and grabbing my bag of blades.

She's so right and it hurts to know that she is right.
