Vibrator

…A Few Days Later…

I woke up abruptly from my nap, tears streaming down my face. I bit down on my quivering lip for a second before breaking out in a fit of sobs.
“CC?” I called out into the dimly lit room. That’s right, he went out with the baby to get some things and let me rest. I’ve been having these terrors during my dream so often. They were intense flashbacks of my time spent with my dad, and I couldn’t handle them. I wasn’t able to find a way to stop them. I gripped onto the blankets, using every ounce of strength in me from doing something that I would regret.
Nearly 20 minutes past and I was still in this state, even worse. I couldn’t take it. I stood up and rushed to the bathroom, ripping open a drawer and searching through it for the item that I wanted. Once my fingertips with the cold metal piece I took it out, looking at it for a second. I hesitated but I started to do it again. I filled my arms with the crimson lines, each one as I went getting deeper and deeper and deeper. I started to feel lightheaded, almost falling over when I took a step. My hand clutched onto the countertop, placing down the razor and staring at my reflection. Blood ran down my forearms, going onto both of my hands.
I stumbled out of the bathroom, walking towards the bedroom and holding onto the railing as I did. When I reached it I grabbed my phone, finding Andy’s number and calling him.
“Hello?” His voice said. My vision was going blurry and I couldn’t see straight.
“Andy...P-Please come quickly…” I said before hanging up and collapsing on my bed. I stared up at the ceiling, tears still spilling out of my eyes. My arms hurt as the blood kept coming out, and quickly.

...Andy’s POV…

I arrived at the house minutes after the phone call. My heart beated quickly in my chest as I rushed into the house.
“(NAME)!” I screamed, running around and trying to find where she was. I went upstairs and checked CC’s room. No, not there.
“(NAME)!” I called out again. There was a soft sobbing sound that I heard over my heartbeat that seemed to be in my ears. I rushed into the bathroom, my eyes making contact to the piece of metal on the counter. There was red patches here and there also.
“No…” I whispered to myself, rushing out of there and into her room. I swung the door open going in and looking at the bed. I felt a piece in me shatter.
“Oh no...oh nononoNO. Oh god,” I said as I went to the bed, grabbing her body and first checking for a pulse. There was one, but it seemed so...little. Tears streamed down my face and I held her close to me, grabbing her phone and calling 911. After they answered and gave them the address, I picked her up and carried her downstairs. Where was CC? My vision was blurred by tears. She wasn’t responding and I hoped she only fainted. I laid her down on the couch and grabbed several towels, holding them against her arms in attempt to stop the bleeding. An ambulance soon arrived and people came storming in with a stretcher, pushing me out of the way. They put her on it and got out, someone coming in and asking me what happened. I was barely able to respond too much was happening at the moment.
“S-Stop, I need to call her boyfriend,” I said, grabbing a phone and dialing CC.
“Hello, gorgeous,” CC said into the phone.
“It’s Andy,” I responded. There was silence.
“Why are you there?”
“It’s (NAME)...She’s in the hospital…”
