You just have to brush off the pain.

[lauren.]

Rodney;
"Hey,"I whined as I yanked my arm from her. "I know what I'm doing! I'm getting a fucking drink,"I said as I continued for the cabinet.

Darcy;
I glanced down at my wrist my stomach sinking just a little,"It's nothing,"I said covering them back up as I pulled up to the house, quickly getting out and heading inside.

[haileyjordan]

Cassandra,
"No! You are done getting drinks!" I yelled as I shoved him away from the cabinet. "The cabinet is over so you can kiss your relationship with it goodbye. Everything's going," I hissed as I opened the cabinet, grabbing the bottles out as I made my way to the outside trashcan to break them. I had had enough.

Joshua,
I followed her inside, stumbling here and there. "Darcy," I mumbled, "It's not fine. What are you doing?" I asked. I couldn't concentrate, but I just needed to know and it would hopefully make sense to me.

[lauren.]

Rodney;
"Cassandra! What the fuck?! Stop!"I yelled as I followed her outside. I grabbed her arms pulling her towards me to stop her. "You can't throw all my things away,"I said gripping her arms.

Darcy;
"It's nothing. Just drop it, you're too drunk right now to even comprehend anything,"I said heading into the kitchen to get some water.

[haileyjordan]

Cassandra,
I glared at him, "I can do whatever the hell I want Rodney. You are throwing your life away with this shit you drink and pretty soon you're going to end up dead. I don't want you to die because I love you, but I'm beginning to regret that," I said. "Now let go of me."

Joshua,
I kept followed after her, making a fool of myself as I kept balance from the walls. "Darcy please," I said as I grabbed her arm, looking at it the best I could. I then looked back up at her, "are you c-cutting?" I asked, swallowing. Even though I was drunk I could recognize that anytime.

[lauren.]

Rodney;
I stared hard at her wanting her to just stop,"If you leave the alcohol alone I will let you go,"I said nodding my head slightly.

Darcy;
I winced a little as he took hold of my wrist to get a better look,"No..."I trailed off trying to think of a good reason why this has happened but nothing came to mind.

[haileyjordan]

Cassandra,
I shook my head, "I'm afraid I can't do that. Rodney why won't you just listen to me?" I asked, stamping my foot. I felt like I child, but I was losing it. I felt a few stray tears slip my face. Great, I didn't want him to know I was weak.

Joshua,
"Why are you lying to me?" I asked her, "why are you doing this Darcy?" I asked before I let go of her arm to rub my temples. "Oh God," I groaned. This was all just too much for me to handle.

[lauren.]

Rodney;
I stared at her for a long hard time before releasing her arms. "Fine,"I said through clenched teeth. I walked backwards for a moment watching her then turned around heading back inside. I had bottles hidden all.over this house. She couldn't find them all.

Darcy;
I shook my head,"I don't think you have the right to ask that question or even get an answer for that matter,"I said crossing my arms. I lifted my head,"I'm going to bed. The couch is waiting for you,"I said stiffly before I headed upstairs.

[haileyjordan]

Cassandra,
I let out a small sigh as I aggressively threw the bottles in the trash can. I sat on the curb, burying my face in my hands as I cried. I don't even know how long I cried for, but I just let everything go. Was this worth it?

Joshua,
I stared at her, my mouth slightly open before I closed it, running my hand through my hair. What the hell just happened? What was going on in general? I made my way over to the couch and sat on it, in a daze.

[lauren.]

Rodney;
I went upstairs to the spare bedroom and found where one of my many stashes were. I pulled out some vodka and slid down the wall till I was sitting on the ground, drowning the vodka.

Darcy;
I shook my head as I made it upstairs, closing the bedroom door. I breathed in as I looked down at my scars then over at the bathroom. Should I? I only did it in the first place to get Josh to notice.

[haileyjordan]

Cassandra,
I gathered myself together and carried myself inside. I wiped away my tears and headed upstairs. I just needed some sleep; I was exhausted physically and mentally. Before I went into the room I walked past the guest room and saw Rodney; drinking. I covered my mouth and shook my head. I walked into our room, tears streaming down my face as I grabbed a suitcase, beginning to pack.

Joshua,
I glanced over at the stairs, then at the blank TV. What the hell was I doing? What was she doing? I screwed up, but I don't think I'd ever change. "Fuck," I said under my breath as I stood up, hesitating on whether on not to even try and talk to her, if I was able to function.

[lauren.]

Rodney;
I heard Cass walk by and I knew she saw what I was doing. What? I couldn't help it! Maybe if we didn't get into so many fights, I wouldn't drink. Geez. I managed to get up, leaving the bottle on the floor. I walked to the bedroom seeing Cass packing, though it took awhile for me to understand. "What are you doing?"I managed to get out without slurring.

Darcy;
I went into the bathroom, shutting the door quietly. I picked up the razor studying it. "There's got to be something that will get it through his head,"I murmured to myself quietly. I went to turn on the bathtub, and began to let the sting comfort me.

[haileyjordan]

Cassandra,
I didn't even look at him as he spoke, I just continued to pack. "I'm leaving Rodney," I said softly. He'd never get it until I left; hopefully. I swallowed, my throat dry as I tried to remain calm, but I didn't want to to this, I just had to.

Joshua,
I sighed and quietly made my way upstairs. I heard the bath running and raised my eyebrow. Darcy never took baths, what was she doing? Should I open the door? Would that make her angrier? Screw it, I was already in trouble, why not make it worse? I opened the door, glad it wasn't locked, and saw her with the razor. "Darcy." I said, in complete disbelief of what I was looking at.

[lauren.]

Rodney;
I stared for a moment then suddenly I felt sober as if the world was crashing. "Wh-what? No you can't leave,"I said stumbling over to where she was packing a began unpacking her bag.

Darcy;
I didn't notice that Josh had even came in or spoke. I was too entranced by what I was doing. I watched as the blood slowly rose from my cut the color beautiful actually. I placed the blade against the other cut from last night.

[haileyjordan]

Cassandra,
"Rodney stop!" I said as I grabbed whatever he unpacked and packed it again. "You caused this so don't act like you care all of the sudden!" I wiped my eyes and took the necklace he had given to me when we first started going out from around my neck. "I'm sorry but I can't do this anymore. I'm not happy Rodney, and I never will be unless you grow up." I took his hand and gently placed the necklace in his palm.

Joshua,
"Oh my god Darcy stop!" I said as I quickly took the razor from her grip. "What the fuck are you doing?" I panicked. "You could kill yourself!" I myself wanted to cry, but I hadn't cried in about 10 years, I couldn't. What led her to doing this? Was it me?

[lauren.]

Rodney;
I stared at the necklace in my hand, my heart breaking,"Cass..."I whispered as I looked at her. "Please. I can't live without you,"I said gripping the necklace. "I need you. Please, I'll get better, please,"I whispered as I reached for her to pull her back into my arms.

Darcy;
I stared at my hand wondering what happened to the razor. I looked up my eyes going wide as I realized Josh had seen this. "Josh!"I gasped,"You're supposed to be downstairs,"I said panicking as I put my arm under the running water, gritting my teeth at the pain.
