A scream, that heart wrenching scream that echoed within the air lasting forever. Then silence, until my ear drums were bombarded by glass smashing into shards and then sobs, crying out in pain, crying for someone to save her to get her away from the monster who attacked her, the monster who ruined her life. That monster was staring at me in shock at my blooded form. God there was so much blood, why was he just standing there, did he hate me so much that he wanted me to die. Oh God, I'm going to die was the last thought that crossed my mind until darkness corrupted my vision setting me free from my demons.
What have I done?, this wasn't meant to happen, I stand there frozen unable to move, her words taught me "Don't lie" she screams "I was Frozen, not moving, not responding, tell me you didn't notice that!" Her screams overwhelm me even though she's silent she's not moving, not responding but this time it's different she's not frozen, she's dying. I rush over to her as she starts to regain conscious and starts to push me away, I don't blame her but I need to help her. I reach for my phone as realisation takes over ,I smashed it in anger. I have no phone, I can't help her, oh god what have I done? Putting my hands in my head I try to convince her to let me help but her words from earlier poison me once again "you carried on when u knew it was over, you carried on when u knew it was a no!" her words were the truth but I kept telling her to shut up but she carried on like I had "you raped me Eddie, live with it, own it!" She screams the truth we both know it's the truth and then it happens it gets to much for me and next thing I know I'm on the floor next to her trying to feel for a pulse she moves away, there's blood so much blood and for the third time that night I ask myself, what have I done?
Staring at the lights on the road I think about Alicia, how brave she is and how much I'll miss her, am I making a mistake, I should be with her right now but instead she's on her own trying to deal with everything that's gone on. I look at the road I've only been gone 10 minutes, " excuse me man, would u be able to take me back to 7 Holts View, I've changed my mind" he sighs but complies as I head back to Alicia feeling stupid for leaving in the first place. Finally I am outside, in the cool air as I walk to Alicia's, something feels different though as I open the door and shout through to Alicia trying not to startle her, what I didn't expect to be faced with was the shout for help from Eddie, what was he doing here?, where was Alicia? Running to where his voice with my eyes focus on the lifeless figure on the ground, Alicia!, suddenly anger over takes me as I glare at Eddie who was cowering near Alicia, "what happened, what did you do to her?" I shout crouching near her trying to assess her, one thing is clear is that there is too much blood, Eddie is about to answer but Alicia answers for him. "He attacked me" she whimpers barley audible, I cringe at the pain etched on her face "hey beauiful, it's okay I'm here now, it's all going to be okay I promise" I sooth her which is all I can do until I get her to hospital. "How long is the ambulance going to be" I asked Eddie but all he does is shake his head and explain about his phone I sigh In frustration, if only I never left.
I smile slightly that I'm not alone with Eddie that Bea isn't going to let me die alone, oh god there's more blood as i feel more pain shoot up my arm, it must be the brachial artery I think to myself both while Bea and Eddie are thinking the same thing. I needs a tourniquet, to stop the bleeding, Bea is looking at me holding my hand trying to comfort me while he is applying pressure on my arm trying to stop the bleeding, I can tell it's not working as he curses. "There's towels in the kitchen and belts upstairs, to make a tourniquet" I whisper to her as she nods but doesn't move, "Bea you need to get them you know where they are, he doesn't!" I tell her as at first she hesitated but then runs of to find them and I'm alone with him again.
Still applying pressure to her arm, I notice her eyes start to droop, she's looking smaller more fragile and vulnerable this is all my fault, if only Bea would hurry up. She looks at me her eyes empty, emotionless " I- I need sl-eep" she whispers, this can't be good I gently shake her as her eyes shut and her breathing rapidly slows down, panicking I carry on shaking her "Alicia, Alicia wake up come on, Alicia can you hear me?" I scream but there's no response, her pulse is weak and threats but it's there. Bra suddenly emerges from upstairs "Bea she's lost conscious, we need to get her to the hospital now!" I explain going into doctor mode, we both know it's not looking good as we begin to apply the home made tourniquet. Bea looks at her with sorrow in her eyes but talks directly alone "why, why couldn't you just leave her alone?" She requires no answer but even if she did I don't know why I did this why I ruined her life them made out she was crazy, what happened to the person I was. I stare at her unconcious, broken form she doesn't deserve any of this. What kind of monster am I?
Finally we are in the car on the way to the hospital, Eddie starts driving as Alicia regains consciousness she begins to get agitated, disorientated as she cry's out in pain as I tighten the make do tourniquet, I whisper reassuring words to her that she will be okay, Ethan will come to her rescue and she will heal around her friends who are like family. I look at Eddie who is concentrating on the road a look of concern on his face " what, what have you done now?" I shout as he suddenly swerves to avoid a car, "Eddie what's going on?" I practically scream at him as he tries to regain control of the car, Alicia looks petrified as she sees an over turned ambulance, and then suddenly bright lights as a car comes speeding towards. Then there's silence Eddie managed to avoid the speeding car and we sigh in relief until another car crashes into the back of us and suddenly the car is out of control, the three of us screaming uncontrollably, then we stop "Eddie, are you okay?" I ask as i see blood trickling down the side of his head "Alicia!" He screams as another car crashes into us overturning the veichle as again we are screaming for are lives and then darkness.
