Only Baby Scars

The Depths

•Nicole•

I wake up next to Mike. His chest is slowly rising and falling. I slide out of the bed. A sudden rush of dizziness clutters my head.

"Woah slow down, you're going o fall!" Mike grasps my shoulders, trying to sit me down.

"NooOOOooooOOoo, I'm leaving..." I wabbled out of his grasp, and slowly, BUT surely made my way to the stairs.

"Vic! Get her!"Mike screamed. Vic ran out of the kitchen. I made my first step off the steps to my death.

"Catch her!" Mike cried. As I'm about to hit the floor, I feel two strong arms around my waist. We stumble backwards and hit the floor with a thud. I manage to get off the man. It was Vic.

"I had it all planned out! You ruined my way out!" I cried. Just as Vic got up I hit his chest repeatedly and screamed inaudible things.

"Baby, darling, sweetheart, calm down, it's for your own good" Vic calmly pointed out.

"No! I don't want to live here anymore!" I screamed. I felt two hands on my shoulder, they turned me on my heels to face them. Mike.

"Get your shit together! I didn't come to save your ass to have you complain about dying! I love you so much but sometimes you really need to do a reality check! I'm not gonna be here forever, and I might not even be here tomorrow! So shut the fuck up!" Mike yelled directly at my face. I've seen him mad, but not that mad. My body was paralyzed, full white. I could barely breathe.

"Mike that wasn't necess-" Vic was cut off.

"No, she needs to learn that not everyone loves her, and that maybe I don't!" Mike snapped. I got up and walked away, grabbing my phone with my blade in the case, charger, shoes, and money.

"Bye, no one wants me here, I'll just leave." I softly motioned to the door. I started for the door until Vic grabbed my hand.

"Please don't leave, I just got you back," Vic pleaded. I leaned in and kissed him. I parted from his soft lips and whispered to his ear.

"I'm sorry" a stray tear collected on my chin. He looked me in the eye. He kissed my lips, and he didn't let go. I pulled back and turned away, leaving him without turning back.

I ran out the door with my backpack without stopping. I heard my name being called. A car drove next to me, it was Tony and Jaime.

"Nicole please come back, we love you a lot and Vic is in hysterical cries, Mike hates himself, and we need you" they shout, adding things in after each other. I kept jogging.

"No, I'm not, stopping, until, I get, to my destination." I panted out

*7 minutes later*

I stopped running, placing my sweaty palms on my knees.

"Why are we at the bridge..?" Tony questioned. I stared at him and smiled.

"I called Vic and he's coming" Jaime panted.

"Bye" I smirked, stepping onto the railing of the bridge.

"Nicole... Don't you dare" I heard Tony from behind me, his voice cracking.

A car pulled up, Vic. He stumbled out of his car.

Jaime kept sweet talking me, trying not to get me to jump. I didn't notice Vic going around to my blindside. Vic suddenly grabbed my waist, pulling me off the edge.

"You fucker, I love you so fucking much, don't EVER do that again!" He cried into my hair, his hand behind my head, and other arm around my torso

"I'm sorry, I'm so so so sorry" I choked on the words.

"You're safe with me right now, I love you, I love you, I love you," he sobbed.
