Chapter-4 ***WARNING KATELYNN CUTS IN SOME PARTS*** When we got home from Pizza Hut, I told Liam I was going to go to take a shower then go to sleep. He said ok. When I finished in the shower and put a pair of shorts and a long sleeve t-shirt on, I looked at myself in the mirror. I felt around my stomach, my overly sized stomach. It was bigger than before. I mean I didn't think I was that big. I just felt even more sick. How could I let myself give in? I heard my phone vibrate, which distracted me. 'Austin: Why are you ignoring me?' 'Me: Bcuz your a douche now stop.' I was curled up in a ball, on my bed, crying my eyes out. Why would he do this? 'Austin: At least I'm not a wuss. Or a fat whore unlike you.' I'm done. Im. Fucking. Done. I threw my phone against the wall. I don't care anymore. Looking under my pillow I find my blade. My blade. My precious, delicate, and sharp friend, named blade. I rolled up my sleeve so my wrist could meet my friend once again. Pressing the blade against my skin, I felt relief as soon as the blood came out. It has never felt this good. The sense of relief calms me, tempts me to do more. That is until Niall and Liam barged into my room yelling at me to stop. But I couldn't. I cut once more, deeper this time. "Katie stop it now!" Niall yelled, taking my blade away. I screamed at him, wanting him to give it back, but he refused. I yelled at Liam and Niall once more. They refused to give it back. So I stood up and then the last thing I saw was Niall grabbing my arms. Then I blacked out. ************************************************************************ Niall's Pov "Katie stop it now!" I yelled taking the blade from her. How could she do this? She screamed at me to give it back, but I refused. Which pissed her off a bit. She stood up, dizzy, and screamed at the top of her lungs. I grabbed her arms as she started to topple over sideways. She looked at me terrified. Then she blacked out. "Liam, what do we do?" I asked him as he stared at his sister. "I'll call Natalie." Liam said firmly. "Ok." I looked at Katelynn's small pale figure. She was so tiny it's not even funny. It's actually pretty sad how skinny she is. She used to eat everything in sight when we were both little. Now she barely eats anything. I laid her small, fragile body back on her bed as Natalie, Katelynn and Liam's oldest sister, came into the room looking at me. She looked angry but sad at the same time. "Niall leave." Natalie said. "No." I said. "Yes Niall. Liam and the boys are leaving to meet me at the hospital. Please Niall do it for Katelynn." She said. "Fine." I said. I ran downstairs, wondering why she broke our promise. **FLASHBACK: *when the boys were 14 and Katie was 13* I looked over at Katie noticing something on her arm. More like lines, maybe even scars for all I know. "Katie come with me." I said out of the blue. Katie looked at me a little scared, then stood up and followed me upstairs. I opened up her bedroom door, and once we both were in the room I slammed the door shut. Katie flinched at the noise. I walked towards her, pining her against the bed. "Niall!" She screamed. I grabbed the arm where I saw her scars. "What are these?" I demanded looking at her. "C-cat scratches." She stuttered. "You don't even have a cat." "Niall please." "Katelynn tell me the truth." "Fine. I cut myself." "Katie-" "You don't even care." "I do care Katie." "Bullshit." I looked at her, I could tell she was about to cry. "Katie, please don't cry." I said sympathetically. She wiped her eyes and sat back up giving me a hug. Her head rested in the nape of my neck. I could feel a couple of tears on my neck. Followed by small sobs. "Katie," I said in a soft soothing voice," is there anything else you need to tell me." I heard a soft muffled 'No.' come from her. She finally looked at me, her hands around my neck, my hands on her waist. We both leaned in, not knowing what to do I shut my eyes. Then I felt her lips against mine, moving perfectly in sync. Something sparked between us. I felt it, but as soon as I felt the spark it faded away. "You promise?" I whispered. She nodded and looked at me again. We both leaned in knowing what we both wanted this time. As we kissed it got longer, and better. Then all of a sudden she was ,on top of me. We were still kissing. Then we stopped. Things were moving quickly, but we both enjoyed it. And as if I actually knew what I was doing, I grabbed the waistband of her shorts. "Stop." She whispered grabbing my hand. I nodded, letting her get up. Then I got up. She looked at me then smiled. Her smile is the cutest one I know of. As we stood face to face, she interlocked her fingers with mine. Then she laid her head on my shoulder, and started to sway. "That stays between us." She whispered. "Ok." I whispered back. ************************************************************************
