Chapter 21

AN: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA

Trigger

Don't hate me >.<

*Ashton's POV*

I stood up from my bed and locked my bedroom door. I then walked to my bathroom and locked that door too. I opened up the cabinet and pulled out my sharpest blade. I then got out my bottle of sleeping pills. I didn't even bother to write a letter. No one will miss me anyways.

Not even Luke.

I grabbed the blade and put it to my wrist dragging it across. I at first did it slowly, then I spiraled out of control. Blood was coming out of my wrist at a fast pace. I stopped with that and then took the pills. I at first did one at a time. One turned into two. Two turned into three. Three led to the rest of the bottle in my palm and into my mouth.

I started getting light headed and did the only thing I could.

Close my eyes waiting for death to take me.

I was in a dark place. I heard voices around me. They were quiet and I couldn't understand what they were saying. I opened my eyes and say white. My eyes got focused and I realized I was in the hospital. Why was I in the hospital. I'm supposed to be dead. I turned my head and say the other boys. They all looked so tired.

They all had dark circles under their eyes and red eyes from crying. 

"Why am I alive?" I whispered, barely even audible.

The boys must have heard me because the next thing I knew, all three came to hug me. 

I flinched.

"Ashton?" Luke said hurt filling his eyes.

"Why am I alive?" I repeated.

"We don't want you to die," Michael stated.

"Yes I do."

"Ashton. Do you even know what you're saying?" Calum asked, confused as to why I would want to die.

"Nobody loves me."

"Yes we do. The fans. Your family. Me," Luke said.

"Luke, you and I both know that is bullshit," I said, trying to convince them.

"You know I love you Ash. Why would I fake having a girlfriend?"

"Your journal says different." 

Everybody froze right then and there. You would have to have a chainsaw to break the unsettling silence. 

"What are you talking about Ashton. I don't have a journal," Luke tried convincing me by acting dumb.

"You sure as hell know what I'm talking about."

"Luke, why else do you think he would do this?" Michael spoke up. I froze. Were Michael and Calum in on this too?

"Did you know about this?" I asked the both of them.

They both looked down guiltily. How? How could my own two best friends do this to me? I felt tears coming to my eyes. I couldn't hold it in anymore. I let the tears flow freely down my face.

"Why?" I asked after a moment of silence.

Why?" I repeated, my tone harsher.

"We wanted you to stop harming yourelf," Luke confessed.

I scoffed,"And you think lying about liking me would stop me?"

All three of them nodded.

"You can't tell someone to stop cutting. You have to give them a reason."

AN:

Sorry if it's not as long as you hoped it would be.

Everyone wanted me to update so I figured why not.

Question: How did you guys find this?

And if you want to take a break from this sadness read my other fanfic Hidden because that story is a lot more fluffy :-)
