I was angry. Hurt. How could Clare do this to me? If it weren't.. for her, none of this would have happened to me. I placed the picture on the tree, breathing heavily. "This is all your fault!" I heard an angry voice yell at the picture, astonished that it was me. What's happening to me? "Clare hates me because of you." I continued, feeling the hot burn of tears filling my eyes. "You ruined my life."
My voice cracked, the tears finally spilling out of my eyes. I was done with Julia. If getting rid of her, led me to being with Clare, so be it. I glared at her one final time, before going back to get Bull Frog's gun. I shook my head angrily, kneeling down and aiming the front of the gun, right at Julia's face. I squeezed my eyes shut, letting out a shaky breath when the sound of glass shattering filled my ears. I opened my eyes, the frame broken in glass pieces and the picture laying on the ground . She's gone. "Eli.." I felt more tears escape from my eyes, hearing her voice. "Is that how you really feel?" I heard Julia whisper again in my head. I nodded, sitting down and hugging my knees to my chest, along with a silent cry. Then, I felt a hand gently rub my back in soothing circular motions. I continued to cry, knowing this was all in my mind. I've officially gone crazy. "I'm alive, Eli…" I heard the voice say again. But it sounded like she was actually there. Wait, what? I turned around in a sharp motion, only to see Julia, hearing a gasp escape from her lips. Julia? I abruptly stood up, backing up from her, looking into her crystal blue eyes. She tried to grab my hand, but I pulled away from her. "I'm sorry!" she said, her voice barely above a whisper. "No." I said,feeling the anger building up in my body. "YOU FUCKING LEFT ME, AND ALL YOU CAN SAY IS YOUR SORRY?" I yelled, walking closer to her. She gasped once again as our faces were inches apart. Then I did it. I slapped her as hard as I could. Struck her right there. She held onto her cheek, keeping her face down with uncontrollable tears streaming down her face. I didn't feel bad at all. Not anymore.
