Our Secret

I was grading papers when my girlfriend came up behind me "hey babe, who is Lux?" I put down my pen and turned to him "why?" she looked away I thought that was weird " she called three hours ago" I turned to look at the time it was ten and it was late to call her back " it was probably nothing, let's go to bed."

After everything that happened today, I just wanted everything to end, so I took a whole bottle of sleeping pills and I called Eric, his girlfriend answered " leave Eric alone and don't ever call him again" I felt my self-starting to fade away " Lux answer me please," that was the last thing that I heard.

I kept wondering why lux had called me last night, I was going to call her when Math walked in, he looked like he hasn't slept in days "Math what is wrong?" he looked sad "lux won't be in school for a couple of days" when he said that I felt my heart beating fast "lux tried to commit suicide last night," I felt like my heart stopped "is she okay?" he looked down " we don't know yet she hasn't woken up yet," I looked at him " hey Math last night around 8:30 lux called me" he looked surprised " she took the pills around that time ,I have to get to class" after he left I got in my truck and drove to the hospital, I needed to see her.

I got to the hospital "I'm looking for Lux Cassidy?" she looked it up "she is in room 12" I took off down the hallway, I saw baze and cate sitting down "Eric what are you doing here?" I sat down across from them, "when everything that was going on with you and Ryan I gave Lux my number to call me if she ever needed to talk, and last night after she took the pills she called me."

"Eric do you know why she did that?" I looked at them "yesterday at school she saw Jones and Tasha making out."

I opened my eyes and right away I realized I wasn't in my bed, my throat burned and my wrist were itching, I was trying to remember what happened last night, it all came back to me.

A couple minutes later the doctor came and told us we can go and see her "Eric I think that you should see her and I think that she would talk to you since she trust you." I got up and walked into her room she looked at me and frowned "you shouldn't be here" I looked at her confused "why not?" she had tears running down her face "your girlfriend told me to leave you alone, I called you for help last night, I didn't know what to do so I walked toward her and whipped her tears "I know what you went through was hard and I wasn't much help but we are in this together" I looked at her she looked sad "Lux we need to talk about what happened!" she was going to say something when baze walked in "lux, you can go home tomorrow, I hate to tell you this but your mom and I have to go a way for business" she looked so sad.
