Chapter 6:
I stared at into the water, listening to little kids play.
"Well, well... who do we have here?" I looked up to see Josh and his mentors. I never really learned their names cause they never really did anything to me. I looked away hoping they would just leave. Biggest mistake ever!
"Don't look away from me!" Josh pushed me off the bench onto the ground. I stood up and pushed him back. I knew I was already going to get beat up so I might as well just say what's on my mind.
"You know what, Josh!?! Nobody even likes you the only reason these dumbasses follow you is because you are so call "Mr. Popular" when really you are nothing! YOU ARE A MEAN BULLY! I HATE YOU SO MUCH JUST GET OUT OF MY LIFE AND LEAVE ME THE HELL ALLOW!! YOU CAUSED ME NOTHING BUT HELL!! LOOK AT WHAT YOU DID TO ME!"
I picked up shirt enough to show him only my cuts and scars. He looked a little bit from terrified to extremely mad. I pulled my shirt down and walked away. As I was walking up to the sidewalk, there stood Vincent watching me. Did he see all of that? I put a smile on my face like nothing happened. Maybe he just seen me walking away from them.
"Hi, Vincent" Hre gave me a weird look then looked at my stomach. He picked up his hand slowly and brought it towards the bottom of my shirt. He seen. He hestitated at first but lifted up my shirt only to show half my cuts. I felt tears build up in the brim of my eyes. Why?
"Sc-scarlett... why?" He looked at me horrified. He thinks I'm a monster now. I know it. I felt myself break down into tears as Vincent wrapped his arms around me. "Why would you do that to yourself?" He whispered into my ear. I silently cried onto his shoulder.
"T-they're mean to me. T-they hurt me." I kind of sniffled it through my silent cries. "Who's they?" I stood there silently. I can't tell him. I just can't. I can't trust him. Not yet. Why can't I trust him? Because I've been screwed up and messed with so many times.
"Scarlett, who's they?" I didn't do anything. What do I say? Hi Vincent, my mom abuses me and I get bullied every day at school, but don't worry about me. I'm just fine. No. I can't say that.
"Your mom? It's your mom, isn't it?" I slowly shooked my head yes. I had to trust him. But, why? Maybe it's because he's the only one who can save me. He's the only one who can care.
