ESCHA POINT OF VIEW 

'...Rose?'' 

I groan and try to turn over in the chair.

"Rose?" i hear the person say louder.

I open my eyes and the sight i see makes me so happy. There is Lacey sitting up in the bed trying to sit up. I really don't believe my eyes. "...L-lacey? " i ask unsure. Then i bawl out crying. I scoot over to her bed and give her some water. I'm quiet sure that i look weird as hell crying and giving her water. I cry and tell her how sorry i am even though nothing is my fault. I tell her that i will never let anyone ever hurt her again. Finally after the hundredth time of her forgiving me, i get up and go get the nurse to come check up on her.

She is all fine for me to take home, i just need to keep a close eye on her. It takes us a no time to get her down stairs and into my car. She's in a wheel chair so yeah, that should be fun.

When we get home i fix her some soup and crackers. I don't want her to have any heavy foods at all because she was sleep for a day and a half, and she had her stomach pumped. 

After I fed Lacey i had her lay down because she said that she was tired. I got her water and stuff by her bed and i made sure to put what ever she needs by her side. Its 9:00 now and i am so tired. I get in the shower and bathe my body very quickly. I'm scared to leave Lacey by herself. I get out of the shower and get dressed. I grab a pillow off of my bed and a hoodie out of my closet and head to her room. She's asleep, so i lie on the floor and try to go to sleep. It takes me a while but i eventually get there.

~morning~

When i wake up Lacey is still asleep. I walk into my room quietly and get dressed. I wash my face and brush my teeth. i brush my hair and put my hood on. Its 7 now, i should make it to school by 7 20. i write lacey a note and i get my keys and leave. 

When i get to school the bell is just about to ring so i head to my 1st class. Ms.Wonder is not in there, it's another teacher. I tell her my name and i head to my seat. I sit down and look to my right.

There is Ava with her head down with an overly large hoodie on. I tap her shoulder and she jerks violently. when she looks up at me her eyes are red. she doesn't talk to me for the whole class period and its a little weird. I know its strange but i feel like i know her out of the day that i spent with her on my first day of school.

the bell rings and we are dismissed. Ava is up and out of the door and i follow her. she doesn't stop when i call her name. I grab her arm and she yanks away from me. So i reach for her wrist. when i grab her wrist she cries out and i stop. I pull her hoodie sleeves up and i what i see causes anger to build in me. she has cuts all down her arms.

"what are these" i ask in a deadly voice. and she freezes.
