Melody was a simple girl...
she never got in trouble, got A's, B's and C's in school and was never in what everyone else did.
she had a boyfriend who loved her very much. his name was Seth...
Seth was perfect for Melody. he had golden brown hair, with crystal blue eyes.
Melody had caramel eyes and "Dirty Blonde" hair.
they both loved animals, school, music and their friends/family.
Although Seth had once been a drug adict and loved to drink. Melody helped him out of that trench.
She was good for him and he was good for her.
Melody thought nothing could go wrong...
unit one day in English class, which they shared. Melody got a note from Seth, who had passed it from across the room.
"Meet me after school, I need to talk to you. By the football field, where the batting cages and the field meet."
Melody turned to Seth, who was looking towards the front of the class.
she sight and nodded to herself.
"nothing can go wrong...."
after school, Melody walked over the part of the field, by the home teams side, where the batting cages met the field about a yard apart.
Seth was there 5 minutes later.
Seth: listen Melody... I have been holding this in a while.
Melody: what?
Seth: I didn't want to hurt you, it's the last thing i wanted to do...
Melody: what are you talking about Seth?
Seth: what i'm saying is... we have to break up
Melody: wh...
Seth: I feel out of love with you a while ago... but I couldn't bear to hurt you. I mean, I did love you. I really did
Melody: Babe, you can fall back in love! *grabs his shirt, tears rolling down her cheeks* you can back those fillings, I can give you a space if that's what you want, just don't do this to me! don't leave me hanging...
Seth: i'm sorry...
Melody: but...but..
Seth: don't try to fix what isn't broken...
melody: my heart is broken
Seth: *hugs her slightly, then turns away and leaves*
Melody sat there for an hour or so, waiting for a miracle. praying to god that Seth would come back and say it was a joke, then they'd laugh all over it...
but he never did. there was no laughing to be heard anywhere around her.
Melody finally went home with blood shot eyes and tear stained cheeks.
A month went by and she was still extremely upset. she become more quiet as the month passed and soon her parents couldn't bear it and put her on homestudy so she wouldn't have to see Seth... but it didn't helped at all
she start failing every subject and she showed little to no emotion around her own parents.
Finally after half a year of pure depression and nothing else, it got to much for Melody...
her parents left for the night, to go out for the dinner with friends. Melody sat down on the kitchen table with piece of paper and a pen.
she wrote:
" Dear Seth,
I love you, still, after all the time and I'm sick of being so sad and not myself..
And I'm sick of loving you, because I know it only causes you anger and hurt. I don't want to hurt you...
I'm sorry, Seth. I love you with all my heart. I hope you understand
—Melody.."
she folded the letter hotdog style, then folded hamburger style and wrote "Seth" in pretty cursive on the front. all the while, tears dripped from her eyes to the oak table and the paper.
then she stuck the paper the pocket of her jeans, and grabbed the cellphone.
she dialed Seth's number, and waited four times before someone picked up.
Seth: hello?
Melody: Seth, i need you to come to my house immediately, it's really important
Seth: Melodooy, i have to tell you something!
Melody: just hurry alright? there isn't much time
Seth: Mel...
Melody hung the phone up, and walked slowly to the kitchen. she opened the knife drawer, pulled out the stake knife and walk to her room.
there she started to cut her wrists, squinting her eyes from the pain, but she didn't stop. she kept cutting unite her wrist were completely red with blood.
her breathing slowed as she felt the pain really sink in and then she looked down at her jeans.
she pulled the slip of paper from her pocket, and set it on the ground beside where she sat. it was now covered in blood.
she took the knife, and plugged it into her stomach. she fell backwards... her eyes rolled to the back of her head, and her breathing stopped.
her hand hell from the handle of the knife, to side of her body , and other one fell onto her chest. blood squirted from her body, landing all over the floor, staining on the carpet.
it didn't take long for her flesh to start turning blue.
Seth had been knocking at the door for a couple minutes, and finally let himself in.
As he headed towards Melody's room, he shouted
Seth: Melody! i want us to be friends still. I still have some fillings for you, and if you'll come back to school and we hung more, I might fall for you all over again!
but then he reached Melody's room, he opened the door and his eyes widened.
there was his Ex-Girlfriend, someone he care strongly for, laying dead, blood drenched, on the carpeted floor.
"Melody!!!!" he screamed. his voice cracked at the "Y". "No!!!" he cried out, tears forming in the corners of his eyes.
He ran to the body and picked it up. he holde the corpse to his body, blood staining his shirt, arms and even his neck. He held her closely, crying.
The whole time he repeat the same word "no" softly. he stroked her bloody hair softly
A moments later, he set her back down. he took a knife from her stomach with ease, it slipping with a single tug, and looked at it for a minute.
"Why..." he said and then raised the knife to his neck with no fear, and slid it across his neck.
he fell only minutes later, next to Melody's corpse, all sign of life gone from his and her bodies...
