I got home and told my mom I was tired and was going to bed. She said good night and I went upstairs. I kicked off my shoes and got on my bed. I felt like crying. I didn’t know what to do. I thought I was about to have a panic attack.
I got up and started pacing around my room in an attempt to try and calm myself down. I stopped in front of my mirror and took off my make up so I wouldn’t have to do it in the morning. I was still really anxious.
I looked on the shelf next to my mirror. I saw the scissors. I used to cut myself with those scissors. I don’t know why I kept them. I haven’t done it in about 2 months I picked up the scissors and pulled up my sleeve and with out a second thought I took the scissor and slid the sharpest point across my arm. I instantly felt relief. (A/N I’m not saying that any of you should ever try SH to get a certain “relief”)
After I did that I breathed again. It felt so good to do that again after such a long time. After I let it bleed for a few minutes I took an old shirt I wasn’t using anymore and wiped away some of the blood. I opened my door a crack to see if any one was in the hall way. Once I thought it was safe I bolted for the bathroom.
When I used to cut I was always clean about it. I always cleaned up after I got my satisfaction. I locked the bathroom door. I took the shirt away from the cut and turned on the water. I cleaned up the rest of the blood that was there. It had stopped bleeding. I have no idea why I didn’t stop myself. This was something I never would have done a week ago... well never would have done again.
I made my way back to my room and put on a pair of black stripped shorts and a teal spaghetti strap shirt, which is what I usually wear to bed. That night was the first night in a long time that I had fallen asleep and stayed asleep during the night.
I woke up the next morning feeling renewed and refreshed. I had thought I was done with all of that, but now I know what I have to do and what help’s me take the edge off. It’s not like I’m doing drugs or drinking right. I need this.
I got out of bed and put on a sweat shirt to hide my most recent guilty pleasure. I made my way down the stairs and in to my kitchen. I got a bottle of water and figured that it was a nice enough day to go out on the porch and sit for a while. I sat in the same spot I sat in the first time I met Blake.
Thinking about that brought a smile to my face. The it quickly dropped when I remembered my stupid actions last night. I started to panic again when he came out of his house. I can’t run away now. He probably already saw me. I thought to myself. I knew I was right when I saw him walk towards me.
