Her bright blue eyes filled to the brim with tears while she was curled up in a ball on the cracked white tile floor. She sat there, face flushed, listening to her schoolmates conversations.
"Did you hear about Anna? I heard she slept with 3 guys this week!"
"Really? I heard she slept with 5."
It was a mistake. I didn't mean to sleep with him. He was just so alluring and charming and... I just felt safe for once in my life around him. I reallt thought I meant something to him....... but I guess I was entirely wrong. I had been going out with Kendall for eight months now, he was the perfect guy. He was popular, athletic, smart, everything a girl would want. I felt like that girl in those teen movies. The invisble, ugly, fat girl who got gorgeous over the summer. The one the all the guys fell for. The girl who got everything she wanted. No one knew me last year, I was the loner girl who at lunch in the bathroom. Over the summer I worked out, counted calories, got a whole new wardrobe, got a total makeover. Instead of being invisible this year, I'm the girl on everyone's lips. I'm considered a "s.lut." I thought I would be "accepted" if I slept with Kendall, but most of all, I'd finally feel loved.
My life was filled with pain. When I was a young child, my father would beat my mother and I. My dad would always come home drunk, filled with rage. I'd hide in the closet, but he always found me. He killed my mother whenshe tried to protect me. Scars and bruises litter my body. I can't even look in a mirror without wanting to cry. He always told me I was worthless, I eventually started to believe him. I was always the loner, I could never make friends. I just couldn't......."fit in."
For once in my life I felt accepted when I started dating Kendall. Everyone knew me, everyone was nice to me...it felt..so surreal. Too bad it turned out to be a prank all along. He was pretending to be in love with me so he could sleep with me....so he and his friends could film it and ruin my life. I wonder how many lies have come out of his mouth. My life was ruined, I've been branded as the school wh.ore. I wanted to crawl in a hole and die. I was just...broken. I ran out of the girl's bathroom, I started running, running towards the door.
Kendall's p.o.v.
God, english is so boring, all Ms.Chavez talks about is her personal life. I looked out the window hoping to see something more interestng than what was Ms. Chavez was talking about. I saw Anna sprinting across the school yard. I wonder what she was doing out of class. I noticed she was tying something, I could see what. It looked like....a rope? She quickly tied one end to a tree and the other to her neck.
"no." I whispered "NO!"
I ran out of the class, not caring about what anyone thought. The truth is I loved Anna, but my "friends" didn't. They absolutely hated her. I went along with their plan to embarass her because I didn't want to be outcasted, but I was wrong. I hate the person I became, I didn't even try to defend her. What kind of monster have I become. I pushed the front doors to the school open, but I was too late. I saw her lifeless body hang. I rushed over to cut the rope. She was still breathing. She looked at me, with her bright blue eyes.
"I was a fool." she whispered.
Her body soon became limp. I held her in my arms for what seemed like an eternity until an ambulance arrived.
"I love you" I told her as they hauled her away. I felt broken.
