ELIZABETH POV

"YOU NEVER TRY TO UNDERSTAND ME!" I yelled.

"I WORKED MY HARDEST FOR THIS FAMILY AND YOU ACT LIKE I DO NOTHING FOR YOU!" My mother yelled back.

"I NEVER SAID THAT!"

Mother rolls her eyes and storms out of my room.

I slam the door. As I put my back against the door, I start to slid down the door...slowly.

I try to comprehend what just happened.

It all started when I confronted my mom about how she always hurts my self-esteem. She would always say I was dumb, a disappointment, and never good enough.

Then we got into a heated argument.

I went into the bathroom. I looked at myself in the mirror. As I saw all the different types of fluids come out of my face.

I'm just very weak. I'm not strong enough to handle all this.

Maybe I'm being overdramatic. I mean I'm supposed to be this rich girl. Money is supposed to be able to buy happiness. I have dinner on the table every night, clothes on my back, and a roof over my head. It's very unfortunate that not everyone in the world has all these things as I do. I'm very thankful that I have all that I have.

I'll always stand by the fact that money can buy you happiness. Of course to an extent. But it can't buy you, love. No matter how much you think it can.

I open the bathroom drawer and took out a razor in a box. Believe me when I say this but I've really never cut myself before. I wanted to see if it really takes away the pain. I put the sharp blade to the back of my arm. An odd place, huh? It would be less suspicious. And I'd rather not end up in a hospital bed. I winced in pain as the blade cut through my skin. Although it hurt I didn't stop. I did it again and again. In total, I made five cuts. I made sure not to make them too deep. I didn't want them to scar. Afterward, I took out my first aid kit and take care of the cuts.

Really, what am I doing? It's just causing me more pain. Though, it distracted me. From my other thoughts. Though this pain wasn't much better. Maybe I shouldn't have done that. I had this feeling of regret. And dissapointment. I guess mother wasn't completely wrong. How could I have fallen this low?

I walk out of my bathroom and flop on my bed. I tried to get some sleep for my first day back to school tomorrow.

<3

I wake up, the sun hitting my face. I get ready and walk down the stairs. No one was home. Everyone must have left already.

Butterflies filled my stomach. So I decided to skip breakfast. I headed to school. As soon as I walk into the building I hear whispers all around me.

"Uhh, why is she here?"

"Hope I don't get any classes with that freak."

I walked down the hall, holding my head down. Embarrassed. Was I really that bad?

I found my homeroom and I scrambled around the room trying to find my assigned seat.

I looked down at the table the stood in front of me. But from time to time I would glance over at the door. Watching students come into the classroom.

A boy with blonde hair and emerald green eyes walked into the room. They caught my attention. I have to admit that they were kinda cute.
They took a quick gaze at the paper in their hand and walked in my direction.

MELIODAS POV

I take a look at the paper in my hand and look for my assigned seat.

I sat next to a pretty pale girl with silver hair and beautiful crystal blue eyes. I couldn't help but look and think about how lucky I was. Oh yeah, and I forgot to mention. She had a figure that was very appealing in my eyes.

As I sat down in my seat the girl looked away for me like she was nervous. I was going to say hi to her until I saw something red seeping through her paperwhite school uniform shirt.

I lightly tapped her shoulder. When I did she flinched and looked over at me.

"Hi, I'm Meliodas. I guess we'll be seeing each other quite a bit." I gave her a cheeky grin

She stared at me for about a few seconds as I started to get a little nervous from her not replying. Then she gave a cute small smile. Seeming a bit nervous herself, she spoke.

"H-hi, " she stuttered as she gave me a small wave.

"Hey, I hope you dont mind me asking, but what happened to your shirt?"

She looked down at the front of her shirt. Not seeing anything she looked back up at me confused.

"On your arm, " I clarified while pointing to her arm.

She looks down at her arm and her eyes widened. "I have to go, " she said.

"But class starts in five minutes!"

She quickly got up from her seat and left the classroom
