love of my life (Hayes Grier)

chapter 31

gabbys POV

I woke up and looked at the clock, it was 10:30.

I decided to go on a run so I got out of bed and changed into cropped leggings and a tshirt.

I put my hair up and put on my running sneakers and grabbed my headphones and left.

I went to the park so I could run on a trail which is along a river, it's pretty.

I ran for about 20 minutes when I decided to slow down and walk and take in the scenery.

I saw 2 girls sitting on the rocks with their feet in the water, they had beers in their hand and it's only 11:30.

I got a little closer and saw that they were young, like a year or two younger than me.

I stopped looking at them and just kept walking, then when I passed them I heard the voice, "yeah she's a bitch, I'm gonna kill myself soon because of her" it was kaylas voice.

I went down to the rocks and grabbed the beer out of her hand and threw it in the river.

they had 3 different knifes around them, a big one, little one and medium one.

they were sitting there cutting themselves, I need to get her help like now.

"get up" I said

"oh my god, leave me alone" she said

"get up" I said as grabbed her arm and pulled her up and onto the walkway.

"Lizzie I'll be right back" she said

"no she won't, I'm sorry" I said and pulled kayla with me.

I sat her on a bench and sat next to her, "time to talk. what's gotten into you?" I asked

"nothing's gotten into me gab, this is me. I changed, people change and just because you don't like it doesn't mean I'm gonna go back to the old me." she said

"Kay I get that people change but I'm worried about you, you're 14 years old and you're sitting here drinking and Hayes has found you knocked out drunk and drunk at a party and that shouldn't be happening. I'm even more worried because I see you harming yourself and I hear you saying I'm gonna kill myself. I can't live without you" I said

"yeah but you can stop worrying because your the reason for all this" she said

"and me coming down there and seeing knives that I know you cut yourself with, that kills me. you don't deserve to be harmed. I get that you have been through a lot of rough stuff and everything's still hard but harming yourself isn't gonna make it better, none of it is your fault" I said

"no my life was perfect until you came into it" she said

"what do you mean till I came into it, we've known each other our whole entire lives" I said

"like when you came back, after my mom died" she said

"who else would've came and got you out of that corner and took you in as their own?" I asked

"I could've lived myself" she said

"I love you and hate seeing you like this, I'm gonna get the help that you need" I said
