Background

They were fighting again, and their screams rang out through the night like a blast from a shotgun.

Beth stood in the driveway of their middle-class home, leaning up against the rear bumper of her mother’s SUV staring out into the empty street in front of her. Black tears streaked down her face, ruining the gothic make-up she spent so much time on.

“Figures,” she said to herself as she wiped it away, leaving an angry streak across her face and hand. She’d gotten into the lifestyle a few years ago, enjoying the freedom that being a goth offered. People stayed away from you, expected you to be weird and overemotional… suicidal.

She’d never do it, she knew. She hated life, but was too scared to die, at least by her own hand. She’d hoped for an accident, or even a disease to help her along, and engaged in the appropriate behavior to give it a kick start. The only thing she got out of that was a nice new addiction: adrenaline. Playing on the highway, walking on the ledges of the tall buildings downtown, or unprotected sex, if she wasn’t supposed to be doing it, she was.

And she kept on living.

The screams got louder, fiercer. It would come eventually, the inevitable sound flesh to flesh-she never knew who’d be slapping who-and that’d be the end of it, just like that.

Until tomorrow.

She gazed up into the stars, one final tearfall splattering on the concrete by her feet. She didn’t say it, but her thoughts echoed louder than any words ever could have.

God, take me.
