Chapter 14: Suicide

Casey's POV

My life only seemed to be getting worse and worse. I had just told my parents about my pregnancy and they had reacted way worse then I expected.

They were never going to forgive me for this. I had let them down deeply and I was just an embarrassment to them now.

I was sure that my sister, who had retreated to her room, was laughing behind my back about this whole situation that I suddenly found myself in.

The only thing I was certain of is that everyone was against me. Nobody cared about me. They just criticized me harshly for every thing that I've done wrong. Judgment. That was all that I ever received. Just harsh judgement and criticism. Other than that I was 100 percent alone.

I decided to go for a walk in the woods without telling anyone. It's not like my family wanted to see me right now anyway. I heard heavy panting behind me which caused me to stop and turn around. It was just Buddy. My sister's dog was the only company I could tolerate at the moment. After all dogs don't judge of criticize people. As a matter of fact dogs didn't care about your faults, defects, or mistakes. They were always loyal and comforted you matter no matter what.

Buddy was no exception. He nuzzled my side affectionately and I couldn't help but smile. I rubbed his head and he seemed to enjoy that.

I didn't say a single word to him. He just followed me into the woods. The only thing that alerted me to his presence was his panting and the occasional affectionate nudge.

I heard a noise up ahead that made me stop in my tracks. It was that same extremely large silver-grayish wolf. He was a beautiful and magnificent animal. I was sure that this was the same wolf that I had seen the last time I walked through these woods. I was sure it was the same wolf. I still had the picture that I first took of him and then posted on Twitter. That photo got so many retweets that I actually lost count of how many. Everyone seemed to like it. Some thought it was just photoshop though.

I noticed Buddy and the wolf staring at each other intensely this time. The wolf and dog had locked eyes with each other. To me it seemed like they were communicating in a way that I couldn't even begin to understand. But maybe that's just my crazy imagination getting ahead of me.

I started to walk off alone. I just kept thinking about everything that has happened to me. I hated my life so much. My life sucked. It was just pure hell and I could see no way out. I hated my life and everything about it. The only thing that has ever kept me happy was my popularity and my boyfriends but now that was gone. So here I was alone and pregnant with nothing and no one. It was to much to handle.

Then a thought occurred to me. I could end it all right now. I could finally put an end to my misery, unhappiness and loneliness. No one cared about me anyway so what would my death cause them?

The answer was absolutely nothing. I just wasn't sure how to go about killing myself. That is until I came across a cliff. Surely jumping and hitting the floor would be enough to kill me, right?

I walked closer and closer to the edge until I was right at the edge. A barking dog caught my attention. I immediately looked back and saw Buddy staring at me. He looked absolutely panicked for some reason. I had never seen him looked so freaked out before.

I sighed.

"Goodbye Buddy"

Just like that the dog took off like a bat out of hell. Siberian Huskies are famous for sled dog racing in Alaska. Speed was a trademark characteristic of the breed. It became clear to me that Buddy had indeed inherited that trait as well. I had never seen that dog move so fast. To bad I would never get to see him display it ever again.

The wolf appeared just then. He watched me. It seemed like he was watching my every move wondering what I would do.

I hesitated for a brief second before finally launching myself off of that cliff. The wolf tried to stop me. He chased after me but it was already too late. I had jumped.

I wasn't sure how long it took me to hit the ground but as soon as I did my head exploded in pain. I felt like every bone in my body broke at the exact same time. I wanted to die already and I hoped it would come quickly. I was surprised I was still alive anyway.

If the blood loss from the wound on the back of my head was any indication I was sure it would happen soon.

"Casey! Oh my god! No! Please No!" I heard someone yell.

I looked up briefly and saw Nessie running toward me frantically. Buddy was at her side.

"Casey! No! No! Please no!" my sister was hysterical for reasons that I could not really understand. She didn't care about me. As weird as she was I loved her but she didn't care about me.

"Oh my god please no!" she cried. She got her phone out and immediately called someone. 911 I think.

"Please get here quickly" sh cried. "My sister just tried to commit suicide. She jumped off of a cliff"

The wolf suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Then the last thing I saw, and was probably the final shock my system could take, was the wolf suddenly turning into a naked but glorious man. He was speaking in a language that I could not understand. The only words I could make out were "Taha Aki" whatever that meant.

Then my world went dark.
