Carters P.O.V.
I am having a dream its always the same dream. Its the dream were I watched my brother die and I was held against my will to watch him die. It’s all my fault I should've done something, but I knew no matter how hard I tried to untie the rope around my white snowflake like skinned wrists and around my ankles connecting to the chair I couldn't get out and the worst part was I couldn’t scream out the lost of Joshua or the scream of fear that was upon me, for I had duct tape around my mouth. I cant take it! I cant take it! I cant take it!!! The memory is burning in my mind telling me I would never forget what happened that day. I pull at my hair and let out a scream of pain, anguish, anger, and most of all sadness. I lay down on my floor and curl up in a ball. I knew that this would happen, the memory happens every night. As I lay there curling up in a ball I see a figure comes into my room I don’t know who it is, seconds after I give up trying to figure it out and let the darkness come upon me.
Zekes P.O.V.
I hear Carter scream again this week it always the same scream, the scream of pain, anguish, hurt, sadness, re great, blame, and sorrow. I hear her scream for 3 minutes until I finally decide to go in there and put her back in bed. I walk down the hallway and go to the second door on the right, I open it and see her screaming curled up in a ball. I try so hard not to cry at what I am seeing, my baby sister is breaking down and dying a little bit at a time. I get out of daze and pick her up in my arms and lay her on her bed. I look at my baby sisters passed out body and cry a little. Carter shouldn't blame herself for what happened to Joshua, I understand there was nothing she could do but I think that our parents blaming her for what happened put her to the edge. I look at her unconscious body, she looks peaceful but I know she isn't, for her dreams haunt her. I walk out of her room and go back to sleep and let tears trickle down my face.
Carters P.O.V.
Its morning and I wake up and stretch. I look around at my room before I decide to get up and get ready for school. I go to my closet and pull out a simple top with Devil de Brides written on it in cursive and a simple pair of jeans, I go to my bathroom and do what I have to do in there. I walk out of room and rush downstairs and wait for my best friend Danny to pick me up. Danny is the only one who knew what happened with Joshua, she stayed with me through all of it and didn't look at me with blame like my parents had or sorrow like the schools student and she didn't treat me like I was about to break any moment if she said one wrong thing, but the thing is she is still careful about what she says to me because certain things can set me off. I was lost in thought I didn't even realize she was already here, I walk up to her and get inside of her car. 10 minutes later we arrive at school. I am scared to go in because it is going to be another day with people looking at me like I am a fragile vase and if you drop me I could break. Danny and i arrive at our lockers. “ Hey, did you know there is a new kid?” she asks. I simply just shake my head no. “ Well I heard he is hot and his name is Cameron.” she tells me.
“ Really?” I ask her. I can tell she is taken back that I actually answered her instead of nodding my head. “Yes” she replies even happy than before. As Danny goes on and on about the new guy, I try to block her out’ I arrived at my first class of the day and tell her bye that I will see her at lunch. I walk into class and sit in my usual seat, I put in my earbuds and crank up the music as loud as it goes so I can block the voices of people around me. As I am listening to this song I feel a tap on my shoulder and turn around I see this guy I have never met before tell me to take out one of my earbuds. I take out my earbuds and I see a small smile on his face. “Listen to that any louder and you will go death.” he tells me. I do a look over and see he has jet black hair with hazel eyes and a ‘To Die for Smile’ as girls would put it. “ What is your name?” he asks me.
“Carter” I tell him. “You?”.
“Cameron” He says.
“ Arent you that new kid?” I ask my curiosity getting the best of me.
“Yes, I just moved here from Rosetown.” he says. I look around and see girls look between me and him, they look at me with hatred and they remember who I am and give me the pitiful look again. I turn back to the way I was in my seat and put my earbuds in and wait for the teacher.
Camerons P.O.V.
I look around the room and I see everyone giving Carter sad, pitiful looks like something bad had happened in her past. As I am lost in my train of thought I hear the teacher call out her name “Carter Reynolds”. “Here” she responds and he goes down the list. The first 2 classes I had went by slowly as I am walking down the hall I see Carter hurrying to her next class, as I am lost in my daze I didn't feel my new buddy Dan jump on me, as he get off of me I ask him a question “Dan?” I start off with.
“Yea Cam” he responds.
“What is the deal with everyone looking at Carter Reynolds with a sad expression?” I ask him
“Dude,” he says “You don't know about what happened to her 4 months ago?”
“No.” I tell him. “Should I?”
“Yes,” he starts off with. “It is very sad and I am not going to tell you, because I want you to find out by yourself.” Dan says. I make a mental note to look her up later.
“Ok” I tell him. The rest of the day I kept on looking at Carter and wondering what is so bad that people are giving her looks of sadness. As the final bell rings I zoom out of class so I can go home and look up some stuff about Carter cause it is killing me not knowing what happened. I go upstairs to my room not bothering to see who is home, I race to my computer and turn it on and look up ‘Carter Reynold’, the first thing that pops up is a news article. I click on it and read it. After I am done reading I am shock at what happened.
