Zach's POV
I remember the day that I found Cammie lying on the floor with blood surrounding her.
~~~~ Flash back ~~~~
I felt my phone vibrate but I ignored it because I knew it was Cammie and she knew I was working and that I couldn't respond while I was working. I really wished I had read the message. When I got off of work I checked my messages and I was right Cammie had texted me. The message read . . .
I'm sorry I love you but I can't do this anymore. I can't take the pain anymore. I just want it to end. I hope one day you will understand why I have to do this. I hope you can and will forgive me. I'm really sorry. I love you. Bye.
When I read those words they broke my heart. I looked at the time she sent me the message and it was about a half an hour ago. I hope I'm not too late.
I reached her house in bout ten minutes I called the police and rescue squad once I got to her house. I ran around the house looking for her. I finally found her in the bathroom with broken mirror all over the floor. She also had blood running all down her arms, it looked like she had used the broken glass to cut herself. I think I found her just in time. The rescue squad arrived five minutes later. They took her to the hospital.
Thorough out this whole ordeal her "father" had been passed out on the couch.
As I sat waiting to hear how she was doing. I sat thinking that there was more I could have done to keep this from happening. Sometimes she talked about ending her life but I never thought she would be able to do it. I should have paid more attention and I should have taken her seriously.
My mom arrived shortly after they brought her in. We sat silently for a few minutes. Till my mom decided to speak, it's like she could read my mind.
"It's not your fault there's nothing you could have done." She said.
I replied bitterly "I could have been there for her. I could have taken her seriously. I could have . . . "
My mom cut me off saying " STOP! Stop beating yourself up about this. It's not your fault. Maybe you weren't there then but you can be there now. She is going to need a friend even more now. There's only so much you can do."
I sighed. "I know I just wish there was something I could have done. I feel so helpless and I don't like it."
" I know sweetie. Everything is going to be okay. Look here comes the doctor."
I prepared myself for what was coming.
"She is going to be just fine. It seems like you found her just in time. We gave her a blood transfusion and she's going to have to stay here for a couple of days just so we can make sure she is okay. Then she can go home. I think it's best if for a while she didn't stay alone. Is there anyone that she can stay with?" the doctor said.
I looked at my mom as if asking permission. She smiled and nodded.
"She can stay with me and my mom." I said.
"Good. Well she hasn't woken up yet but we will let you know as soon as she does. Then you can go in and see her." He said.
