A/N:Hey you guys :D I've been getting a lot of feedback on my other story, so thank you all. I'll try and upload another chapter for "The Reason" tomorrow or Sunday. I have been wanting to do this fanfic for a really long time, so expect updates as often as I can post them.
Anyone who has ever self-harmed, been bullied, thought about suicide, attempted suicide, etc. I don't advise you read this. It can be very triggering. Everything I describe about cutting, being bullied, etc. is all from personal experience. If any of you want to talk to me or anything, I am always here for you :)
Okay, onto the story, lol, I just needed to put those two things out there.
The Blade
Jade's black mascara streamed her pale cheeks, her blue-green eyes filling with tears. She dug the razor blade deeper into her skin, watching the crimson blood pour out of the cut.
"Stop trying, West. Your dad is never going to love you. Neither is that bitch he calls his wife. You will never be the perfect daughter he wants. He is NEVER going to love you. There is NOTHING you can do to change that."
The mix of tears and mascara began to get into her cuts. Jade bit her lip hard and threw her head back, enjoying the pain and release she received from it all.
"No one else wants you either. Beck only stays because he doesn't want to hurt you. The rest of your 'friends' don't even like you. They just want to use you. They're all going to ditch you after they get what they want from you."
She grabbed the pillow and bit down on it hard. Jade started new lines, digging deeper and deeper with each cut. The pain was beginning to become unbearable, but she couldn't stop. Jadelyn couldn't stop until the pain on the outside outweighed the pain on the inside. Not until the pain was greater than her thoughts.
The front door slammed shut. Keys were thrown onto the table. "Jade! Jadelyn West, get your ass down here now!" she heard her 'wonderful' step-mother roar. "Bite me, bitch." she mumbled before wiping the blood up. She gazed at the now crimson blade, which was lying in her hand. Jade gripped it tightly, bringing it-
"I said now dammit! Or do I need to call your father?"
She quickly wiped the blade off, wrapped it up, and shoved it under her mattress. She put band-aids on the cuts before pulling her sleeves down. Jade bounded down the stairs to where her step-mother was standing. She noticed the smirk on Kate's face and clenched her jaw.
"Yes. Kate?" the words managed to escape Jade's tight lips and clenched jaw. The smirk on Kate's face was really annoying the hell out of her. Kate just looked at her, satisfied that her threat was successful. Her arms were crossed against her chest. She stood in absolute silence, before finally speaking to the pale girl facing her, "Your father is coming home with some important people in a couple days. You're allowed to invite ONE friend." Kate scoffed, "Like you have any of those." she chuckled and began to walk away.
Jade clenched her fist tightly and started to walk back upstairs. She could feel the blood seeping through her shirt sleeve. It went unnoticed by Kate like always though. Just as she reached the second step, the bitch, as Jade called her, cleared her throat. "I'm gonna be nice. You can invite that boyfriend of yours too. That way I can show him what a man like him really deserves."
Jade stomped up the stairs, entered her room, and slammed the door shut. She could hear Kate's laughter as she mocked the pale girl's anger. She opened her door a crack, "Do I at least get dinner tonight?" her voice was barely audible. It was silent for a minute. "Maybe she didn't hear me." Jade slowly walked towards the stairs, "Can I eat tonight?" There was more silence as the pale girl slowly walked down the stairs and into the kitchen.
Kate sat at the kitchen table, eating a meal made for a king. She looked up at me with a big smirk, the fork in her hand. "Oh, I'm sorry. This is all there is and it's all gone." She looked at Jade, her smirk widening when when she saw her drool and lick her lips at the sight of the food. Kate took the remaining food and threw it all in the trash, "Sorry." Jade's eyes widened and she ran upstairs, tears streaming down her cheeks yet again.
"Why do you even bother? She's never going to love you. No one ever will."
Jade climbed into bed and held her stomach. She sobbed, crying herself to sleep like always. The last thing she heard before drifting off to sleep was Kate's high-pitched, mocking laughter.
