     Her bright blue eyes filled to the brim with tears while she was curled up in a ball on the cracked white tile floor. She sat there, face flushed, listening to her schoolmates conversations.
  "Did you hear about Anna? I heard she slept with 3 guys this week!"
  "Really? I heard she slept with 5."
 It was a mistake. I didn't mean to sleep with him. He was just so alluring and charming and... I just felt safe for once in my life around him. I reallt thought I meant something to him....... but I guess I was entirely wrong. I had been going out with Kendall for eight months now, he was the perfect guy. He was popular, athletic, smart, everything a girl would want. I felt like that girl in those teen movies. The invisble, ugly, fat girl who got gorgeous over the summer. The one the all the guys fell for. The girl who got everything she wanted. No one knew me last year, I was the loner girl who at lunch in the bathroom. Over the summer I worked out, counted calories, got a whole new wardrobe, got a total makeover. Instead of being invisible this year, I'm the girl on everyone's lips. I'm considered a "s.lut." I thought I would be "accepted" if I slept with Kendall, but most of all, I'd finally feel loved.
My life was filled with pain. When I was a young child, my father would beat my mother and I. My dad would always come home drunk, filled with rage. I'd hide in the closet, but he always found me. He killed my mother whenshe tried to protect me. Scars and bruises litter my body. I can't even look in a mirror without wanting to cry. He always told me I was worthless, I eventually started to believe him. I was always the loner, I could never make friends. I just couldn't......."fit in."
For once in my life I felt accepted when I started dating Kendall. Everyone knew me, everyone was nice to me...it felt..so surreal.  Too bad it turned out to be a prank all along. He was pretending to be in love with me so he could sleep with me....so he and his friends could film it and ruin my life. I wonder how many lies have come out of his mouth. My life was ruined, I've been branded as the school wh.ore. I wanted to crawl in a hole and die. I was just...broken. I ran out of the girl's bathroom, I started running, running towards the door.
                                                                            Kendall's p.o.v.
God, english is so boring, all Ms.Chavez talks about is her personal life. I looked out the window hoping to see something more interestng than what was Ms. Chavez was talking about. I saw Anna sprinting across the school yard. I wonder what she was doing out of class. I noticed she was tying something, I could see what. It looked like....a rope? She quickly tied one end to a tree and the other to her neck.
  "no." I whispered "NO!"
I ran out of the class, not caring about what anyone thought. The truth is I loved Anna, but my "friends" didn't. They absolutely hated her. I went along with their plan to embarass her because I didn't want to be outcasted, but I was wrong. I hate the person I became, I didn't even try to defend her. What kind of monster have I become. I pushed the front doors to the school open, but I was too late. I saw her lifeless body hang. I rushed over to cut the rope. She was still breathing. She looked at me, with her bright blue eyes.
  "I was a fool." she whispered.
Her body soon became limp. I held her in my arms for what seemed like an eternity until an ambulance arrived. 
  "I love you" I told her as they hauled her away. I felt broken.
                                                                                 

  

Never Forgive

     "It's raining, I'm sorry but we can't go outside." Mother said to me. "I understand." I replied back to mother. "Sweety, I have to pick up Trenton from his friends house, do you think you'll be okay alone with Anna? I don't want you possibly catching a cold by walking with me to his friends house." Mother asked me. "Yes mother." I answered her. "Anna! Can you watch Laura? I'll be back in a little while! I have to pick up Trenton!" "Of course!" My sister replied. 
      Anna was my 15 year old sister, she had long blonde hair like me and bright blue eyes like me. She started dating a guy named James. I don't like James, ever since Anna has started dating him, she doesn't pay attention to me anymore. I always catch them in her bedroom together. I don't know what they're doing. They move a lot under the covers of the bed for some reason. I walked up the old, faded brown stairs up to the second floor. I opened her door just a crack. I saw James inside there, they were sitting on the bed. I pushed the door open.
       "Oh, hey Laura." James said a bit disappointingly. "Hello James." I said trying to be polite as possibly. I turned to Anna. "Anna, can we play dolls?" I asked her sounding as sweet as possibly. "Laura, you're 9 years old now, you're too old to be playing with dolls, and besides, I have stuff to do." "Like what? Hang out with James all the time?" I was beginning to sound hostile. "It's none of your buiness of what James and I do so just go away Laura." Anna retorted. I stormed out of the room slamming her door shut. I walked downstairs. Mom had left already. Since Anna didn't care about me enough to watch me then I was going outside to the park across our house. I got my pink umbrella, put on my sandels, and left. It was only a light drizzle, I kept walking a few yards into the park when I saw my friends. 
       "Hey Laura!" Victoria waved me over. I started running towards them, when I got to the sandbox where they were I noticed Charlotte, Rosealie, Levi, and Dean was there. I dropped my umbrella and started making things out of mud with them. A while after I got there, a starnger walked up to us. He looked like he was in his 30s. "You guys shouldn't be out here, you might catch a cold." He said kindly to us. Victoria said that her mother need them out of the house to hold her tea party. Victoria waved over to Charlotte and the others. "Well that's not very nice of your mother. Well what you my dear?" He pointed to me. "My sister Anna was supposed to be watching over me, but she's too busy with her boyfriend." I said sadly. "I'm very sorry, but you shouldn't be at the park then, let me walk you over to your house." "Thank you." I said nicely. I waved to my friends goodbye and we started walking. When I got to the door of my house, the starnger told me something. "If you want to get rid of your sister's boyfriend, push him out of a window.It'll get more time for you to spend with your sister" "Okay, but I don't think I'll do that." I replied as I walked into my house. "Thank you for walking me home." I told him, but he was already gone. I noticed my mother was home. "Oh thank God Laura you're safe!" Mom embraced me when she saw me. "Where have you been?" She asked. "I was at the park since Anna wouldn't do anything with me, she was too busy with James." "What? Oh she's in trouble now. ANNA! GET DOWN HERE NOW!" Anna hurried down the stairs. "How dare you not watch your sister, while you're too busy with you boyf....." I didn't hear the rest of Mom's lecture because I was walking up the stairs. I pushed the door open to Anna's room and I saw James beginning to climb down from the window when I remembered what the stranger said. I started walking over, as soon as I knew he couldn't see me, I took a baseball bat and hit both of his hands. He screamed and soon let go. I saw the stranger outside staring at me, smiling. I dropped the baseball bat where I found it and quietly rushed downstairs. Mom was still lecturing Anna. 
          The next day James was found dead near a river. Apparently someone dragged him away to the river after he died. I killed James on December 4, 1989. He deserved it, he was stealing my sister from me. That is something, I'll never forgive him for.

     My name is Autumn. I was 17 years old when I was murdered on December 9, 1997. This is the story of how I died. It was a cold, snowy night in Gardena, California. I was walking through my neighborhood when I met him. Who knew someone who looked so perfect, could be the Devil in disguise. His name was Drew and he was known as a troublemaker. My family would never approve of me dating a guy like him, a guy who doesn't listen to authority, a guy who doesn't abide the law, a guy who wasn't...rich. I guess I was just in a fairytale....I guess I was hoping Drew was the person I thought he was. People said he was crazy..I should've listened. I resent him so much, I now haunt him...I like to see him suffer..I like to see him in the pain he put me through...he's just someone I'll never forgive.
      We flirted and teased each other for a while, until he finally asked me out on a date. It was perfect, he treated me like a princess, and before I knew it, we were dating. I would always sneak out to meet him, 10 o'clock sharp. I was a fool thinking this perfect relationship could last forever. Whenever I talk to a guy, he got jealous. He would punch me, kick me, beat me until he was tired whenever he caught me talking to another guy. I've never been in a relationship before Drew, I just thought this was how a normal relationship worked, I thought the guy called the shots. I eventually broke up with him, that's when the stalking started. I was never comfortable, I would always feel like someone was watching me...it made me feel so helpless. I started dating Landon a few weeks later. He treated me with something Drew didn't....respect.I was so in love with him that I didn't see what Drew was planning. I got a note on December 8, 1997, it told me to watch the news that night. I did..Landon and Aubrey died of several bullets to the head. I felt so alone then, I felt like I couldn't breath. I went to sleep that night staining my pillow with my tears. The next day I went to school, things went by normally, but I felt so alone and detached from the world. I had cheer practice to 6, it was hard to get through it. When it was over I was in the locker room, I was getting ready to go when the lights went out and a creepy voice whispered in my ear. "You're dead." I started spriting towards the door, I got to the parking lot of the school when I was hit with a baseball bat to the head. I woke up, heading pounding, not aware of my surroundings. It seems like I was in the forest, but I was tied up. Drew walking up to me, and I'll never forget the last words I heard before I died. "You're gorgeous, but if I can't have you, no one can. So drop dead, gorgeous." A knife was plunged into my back, I layed in shock while he walked away. Soon, my world faded. My name is Aubrey. I was seventeen. I died on December 9,1997.
