You Love, You Die

Chapter 2:

( Christian POV )

I was walking to Rose's dorm because Lissa was worried sick about her and nobody had seen Rose all day and everyone was getting curious to where she was. Secretly, I was hoping she died. Well, dead is a bit too harsh but maybe just hoping she was severely hurt and she couldn't hang around with Lissa or anybody for the next week or maybe the rest of the year.

I walked to Rose's dorm and knocked, there was no answer. I knocked again and there was no answer, I started banging the door with my hand and there was no answer at all.

I felt worry build up in my chest and I had really wanted to take any thoughts of hoping Rose was hurt or dead away...but I knew I couldn't.

I started bashing my fist on Rose's door and I didn't hear and answer.

I started bashing both fists up against Rose's door. "Rose!" I called. "Rose," I screamed out. I felt terror rise when she didn't answer. I heard footsteps behind me and turned around with hope filling my chest and seen that it was Stan, Alberta and Spiridon standing there looking at me. "Rose isn't answering," I said to them. "I've been knocking and knocking and she hasn't answered," I told them.

They nodded and knocked on the door and there was no answer they even said that if she didn't open the door she'd have to go see Headmistress Kirova and she still didn't open the door. I could see terror in Stan's and Alberta's eyes and Alberta started kicking down the door along with Spiridon. It was an odd silence, one that you could tell something was really wrong and it scared the hell out of me.

Alberta and Stan finally kicked down the door and we looked inside and I couldn't see anything.

Alberta and Stan went into the room and started calling Rose's name and there was no reply. We walked towards Rose's bathroom when we didn't hear anything and Alberta flung open the door and it almost flew off it's hinges and almost hit me in the head as it passed.

I looked around the room and my eyes laid on a figure lying on the ground with a Stake through their chest and I recognised the figure as Rose and I felt my heart thud painfully.

Rose's eyelids were closed and she lay in a pool of blood, her own blood, with her hands on the Stake and she just laid there...dead. Alberta immediately was in action, and she picked Rose up as fast as she could and ran to the clinic. I just stood there in shock and watched as they took Rose to the clinic. My eyes followed sadly and I immediately snapped out of it and grabbed my phone out of the back pocket of my jeans and dialled Lissa's number.

"Hey Christian," Lissa answered.

"Lissa it's Rose, I think she committed suicide," I told her. "They're taking her to the clinic now," I told her hastily. I heard Lissa gasp and then she let out a sob. I started running. "Lissa calm down. You need to get to the clinic and be there for Rose, she's your best friend the least you could do is be strong for her," I told Lissa. I was sounding like Rose, a little.

"You're right," Lissa said. "I'm coming Rose," I heard Lissa shout away from the phone as she hung up.

I ran around the corner and then ran into the clinic and seen them take Rose into a room and then I heard some talking. I heard the door open and Lissa came in all puffed and sweaty.

"Where is she?" Lissa demanded.

"They took her into that room," I told her pointing to the room she got carried in to.

I felt the need to call Tasha or Dimitri, so I grabbed my phone out of my back pocket and went outside while dialling Tasha's home number.

"Hello?" I heard Tasha say.

"Hey Tasha it's Christian, is Dimitri there?" I asked her.

"Yeah. Did you want me to put him on for you?" she asked me.

"Yes please," I told her.

I heard Tasha calling Dimitri on the other end and then I heard the sound of the phone being switched hands.

"Hello Christian," Dimitri said, "what;s wrong?" he asked.

"It's Rose," was all I managed to croak out. I felt the shock ware off and then the pain taking over and the guilt and I felt silent tears falling down my face.

"What's wrong with Rose? Did she do something wrong? Did she get expelled?" he asked, and he sounded worried.

"No. She committed suicide, Dimitri," I told him. "She was acting really strange after you left, she dyed her hair blonde and got bubblegum pink, purple and blue streaks and started straightening her hair even more straightened then it was. She never talked to us any more and she was always in her room. She ran and trained more than usual, you'd see her up at 12.00 pm while everyone is seeing and she'd be running 120 laps twice a day-morning and afternoon-and I've seen scars on her arms, from cuts and then about half an hour ago we found her with a Stake through her chest," I told him.

I heard him sigh. "Tasha and I will be coming," he said, "right away."

"Okay, well I want to go see if Lissa's alright," I told him.

"Okay bye," he said and then I hung up and walked through the door to see Alberta and Stan holding Lissa back and Dr. Olendzki in front of her trying to calm her down.

"Let me heal her! I can bring her back if you let me!" Lissa shouted pleadingly. "Please I can help her! She can't go, she can't! She's the only one I have left!" she screamed/pleaded.

"Please Princess it's dangerous, we don't know what will happen if you do," Dr. Olendzki said.

"No! No, you can't just give up on her!" Lissa shouted and pleaded. "She's the only one I have left! I love her, she's my sister!" Lissa yelled.

"Princess please calm down," Dr. Olendzki said.

I could see Lissa had tears falling down her soft cheeks and running down her face and her cheeks were wet. Lissa was sobbing and the tears were coming more rapidly now.

"Please," she begged.

Dr. Olendzki had a pained look across her face. Lissa then head butted Dr. Olendzki and broke free of Alberta and Stan when they were going to see if Dr. Olendzki was alright.

Lissa ran towards Rose's room and I ran after her, feeling shocked, proud and scared. We ran into Lissa's room and Rose was lying on the bed, looking paler and still had the Stake through her chest. I felt tears flow down my cheeks even harder. I ran up behind Lissa and grabbed her by the waist but she punched me hard and that made me stagger backwards and then she ran up to Rose and tried pulling the Stake out of Rose's chest but she wasn't strong enough so she couldn't. I watched as Lissa tried helping Lissa and I felt like crying because Lissa was soo desperate to help her best friend.
