blood, tears, and true love

the new girl

{MISTY'S POV}

today was my first day in the academy. i had no idea what to expect, "would people accept me? will i be hated?" i thought to myself. there was so many thin, and perfect girls here and all i was, was fat and ugly. but there was one girl, i couldn't get my eyes off of. i'm not sure of her name, but i know she's two years older than me.

a new girl arrived here earlier today, i just hope i'll get along with her. not much people like me because my mother is the supreme. "maybe i should talk to her?" i thought. "she'll probably hate me too, forget it."

the next morning at breakfast i noticed a lot of the girls were picking on the new witch. i decided to butt in. "why don't you leave the poor girl alone? what has she done to you?" i blurted out. "oh cordelia please, she's a lesbian. i can read her thoughts. i'm clairvoyant remember?" hailey said. "so what? it's not hurting anyone? just leave her alone you bitch." misty looked up at me and smiled. "uh thanks, but it's okay. i'm used to being picked on." she said looking down at the floor again. "well you shouldn't be, you're obviously innocent.. come on" i said leading misty to her room. "now don't let those mean bullies get to you, this isn't the first time they've done this to people." i said as i left her room. "hey thanks!" she shouted when i left.

"all the things they said are true... i'm just some dumb, fat, lesbian, with no power. why am i even here?" i thought. tears began streaming down my face. bad thoughts kept racing through my head and wouldn't stop. i picked up my blades and ran straight towards my bathroom. i picked up my favorite one and dragged it across my wrist multiple times. blood was streaming down my arm making a puddle on the floor. then i heard a knock on the door. "misty! open up! lunch is ready!" the witch who saved me from the other witches yelled, i didn't quite know her name. "oh.. i'll be there in a second." i said as i hurried and wiped the blood away. i rushed downstairs to see all of the witches eating their lunches.

"why am i eating this? i don't deserve it, i'm a failure. even my mother says so." but i continued to eat anyways. but the thoughts kept coming back. after i had finished i ran up to my bathroom and turned the faucet water on. "i must get this out.. i must get this out." i kept repeating in my head as i put the toilet seat up and jammed three fingers down my throat until there was nothing left coming out. i flushed the toilet and washed my hands. "why am i such a fat failure" i said looking at my chubby self in the mirror. i grabbed out the scale and weighed myself. "105 pounds." the thought of my weight repeating over and over in my head. i decided to go and take a nap to forget these thoughts.
