 The bracelets she wore were wrapped around my wrists almost as a reminder of what happened to her. Never-ending pain existed in my mind and body. I lost the only person I thought truly cared about me.

After she died people treated me like I was fragile. I would snap and break if they got close to me. Lilac did at least. She didn't talk to me after school either. My high school social life was over from the start even when it never truly existed.

I wore sweatpants and a t-shirt most of the time not bothering to try my normal style of crop tops and skirts. That's what we wore. In my mind, I had no reason to anymore. Clover was gone and there was no point in it. I was meant to be blank and empty without her.

I truly wanted to scream at everyone around me without thinking twice. I jumped up and walked right out of ALgebra 1 the teacher just watched me go. Good choice.

I didn't even know where to go at this point I was truly just running through the halls. Then I got to clovers locker and my body stopped almost like it controlled itself. I had no control over my body or mind as I put in her combo and the locker popped open.

Then I was back in my head felt clear as I reached for her green beaded bracelet I made her.

C L O V E R

it spelt out her name. I made it for her now it was around my wrist right next to mine.

C A N D Y.

I needed to go home and clear my head a little. I had nowhere else to go at this point.

I ran to my locker where my skateboard was waiting for me.

I got home and ran straight to my bathroom upstairs. Slamming the door behind me. I splashed my face with cold water and took a deep breath looking at myself in the mirror. My face was red and puffy from crying and running home.

The cold water stopped some of the puffy sore feelings. I was feeling it sting my eyes a little but I felt like I could see clearly since the accident.

I woke up in my bed feeling a lot better about myself breaking down and skipping school beforehand. Clover was very important to me and she's not here anymore. I felt myself start to drift back off slowly

Lucky scratched at my bedroom door. That's the first thing I thought when I opened my eyes. Black.

Red dripping from the corners of my room. Little specks of dust flying around the room. It was hard to breathe and think at this point. I heard my name but it was her voice like she was yelling for me from the other room. Everything was fuzzy and it smelt like rotten eggs and burning flesh. I felt every hair on my neck stand up as the scratching stopped and the knob rattled creaking my door open.

My eyes snapped open and I was back in my room. Lucky on my chest his snores never breaking almost calming. It sounded like he was on a loop the same snore playing over and over.

As my door creaked open. Me and Lucky both looked at the door just watching in silence. Headly walked in with his thumb in his mouth and his face red and puffy from crying or scratching at his face. Maybe both. He stood at the door until I patted the spot on the bed right next to me and he shuffled over and hopped up. He put his head under my arm and drifted off. Lucky joined him soon and left me to wonder what the dream meant.
