*book 1* The Nightmare They Call Life

Chapter 4

Monday came by really fast. I had to get up early and go to school. I don't like school or getting up early, and everyone is probably going to ask why I was gone. I don't want to explain it. I might cry, I really don't want to cry at school. It's embarrassing.

Once I got to school I went straight for my locker. As I was getting my books I felt someone's hands on my shoulder. I turned around really fast and there he was.

"Luke are you serious?!? You scared me." I said.

"Sorry Sky I was just worried about you."

"Oh."

"Why weren't you at school for a while?"

I almost cried. Just thinking of the thought of him breaking my bones. Ugh! I hate my life, so much.

"I fell down the stairs and broke my right arm and right leg, it was recommended I stayed home until I got better."

"Oh. Well I'm glad you're ok now."

"Yeah well I'm going to go to class."

"Ok. Bye Sky."

"Bye."

---------------------------------------------

School went by really fast. I got "home" and went to Ryan's room and I did my homework. Ryan came up to his room a little while after I got there.

"Hey how was school?"

"Shitty."

"What happend?"

"Luke asked me why I was gone for so long and I had to lie and I hate lying to my friends and it brought back awful memories of that night and I almost cried."

"Oh I'm sorry." He said as he sat next to me and hugged me.

"It's ok."

"Ok well I'm going to take a shower then order pizza while you finish your homework."

"Ok you do that."

He got into the shower and as I was finishing my homework I was listening to him sing. His singing voice is amazing. I stopped doing my homework and sat down outside the bathroom door, listening to him sing.

"I put your picture away, sat down and cried today." He sang. Oh my god he's singing Picture. I love that song.

"I put your picture away, I wonder where you've been."

I started singing along with him as I heard him sing. I couldn't help myself. It's like the lyrics just flew out of my mouth.

"Since you've been gone my worlds' been dark and grey." We sang together.

"I thought about you for a long time, can't seem to get you off my mind, I can't understand why we're living life this way."

"I found your picture today, I swear I'll change my was. I just called to say I want you to come back home."

"I just called to say I love you, come back home."

Man I love that song. I ran back to his room and put my homework in my book bag like I wasn't doing anything other than my homework. After he got out of the shower he got dressed and he asked if the pizza guy came yet and I said no not yet.

"Hey Sky?"

"Yeah?"

"Where you singing outside of the bathroom with me?"

"What are you talking about?"

"You know. Where you?"

"No!"

"Liar!"

"I'm not lying!"

"Yes you are. I heard you."

"Ok fine, but it's only because I love that song and I couldn't help myself."

"I love that song too and you're a really good singer." He said. That really surprised me because I hate my singing voice and I think I suck.

"Thanks you are too!"

"Thanks!"

*ding dong*

The door bell rang and the pizza was here and we ate it all.

"Wow that was good." I said.

"I know right."

"Well I'm going to shower now."

"Ok."

When I got in the shower, I saw my razors and that reminded me. I haven't cut in awhile. I looked at my wrists. They look bad but good. Bad because I cut and they're scars but good because they're healing.

After I got out of the shower I went to go get dressed and Ryan was passed out. I got dressed quickly and went to bed. I layed right next to Ryan and fell right to sleep.
