Lili's POV

I open the bathroom door.

There he was laying in the tub with blood all over him.

I ran to him.

"Caleb!" I cried and held his hand that was covered in blood.

I tried waking him up but I knew he couldn't come back anymore.

I cried and cried for hours.

I didn't call anyone because what could they do?

His parents were never home and now they were on a business trip.

"I love you." I whispered and kissed his hands.

"It's her." An unfamiliar voice says.

I turn around to be met with a male figure and everything went black.

I wake up sweating and panting hard.

I felt a bile rise in my throat.

I rushed to my bathroom and vomitted out my dinner.

I knew exactly why this is happening.

It's his birthday next week. And everything going on is taking a toll on me.

Suddenly moving not only schools but my country too.

I loved him. I still do.

I washed my face and flushed down my dinner.

I walked out and climbed up to the roof.

I laid down on the roof, staring at the stars.

Thinking of the 'what ifs' and 'whys'.

I closed my eyes and looked to my left after opening it.

I almost let out and ear shrieking scream but he covered my mouth before I could.

I struggled to get out of his hold.

"I'll let go, if you promise to shut the fuck up." He says and I roll my eyes. He lets go of me and move further away from him.

Stupid Giraffe.

"You should stop swearing you know." I say.

"You should stop being annoying you know." He retorts.

"I know." I say quietly. "What are you doing here? I ask.

"Taking a smoke." He says taking out a cigarette from the cigarette packet.

I frowned and took the cigarette from his hand and threw it away.

He glares at me and takes another one out.

I take that and that packet away from him and throw it away, too.

"You can't do that." He says lowly.

"I just did." I say.

"You're gonna regret that." He says.

"And you're gonna thank me later." I say.

He moves closer to me and I didn't back away.

He goes over me and pins me down.

"I need a cigarette and I need it now!" He says.

"Why?" I narrow my eyes at him.

"That's how I stay alive and it's my distraction." He says.
