"Please..." I hear her whimper and I go into full panic mode.
"Calm down, okay? Deep breaths. Don't hang up. I'll be with you soon. Where are you?" I rush as I grab the car key sitting on the glass table. I run into the garage with my dad behind me.
"What do you need?" Dad asks
"A room. A big one." He runs back inside as I hear her voice again.
"Basement...blood...Elle..." I hear sounds of movement in the background and connect the dots. Elle's bleeding, or something...
"Deep breaths baby, deep breaths. It's okay, you're okay" I murmur reassuring words to her as I speed out of the garage and into the highways, thankful that there's no traffic. 
Several thoughts run through my mind as I drove to her house. The last time we spoke, she could barely stand me, but now she's calling me. I feel kinda used, but now's not the time to think about that. 
I reach her house in a matter of minutes and shove the door open. The house is quiet, save for my heavy breathing and footsteps. I reach the basement and take in the sight in front of me. 
Blair cradles her brutally beaten-up sister in her lap as she rocks herself back and forth blinking very frequently.

Insight On Mai Diary

Don't get me wrong. Patrick is a great guy, and an awesome boyfriend and all, but he can be annoying most of the freaking time. 


We are here at the ice cream parlour. I'm trying to get over Blair's episode but, he won't stop talking about... honestly I don't even know what he's talking about anymore. 


"...and he eventually lost to the pregnant woman," he rambles. 


"Pat, Hun, I love you and all, but I still cherish my sanity." 


"Your sanity is just fine," he says as he pats my hair. 


"Are you feeling better?" He asks. And I get the feeling he's not just talking about that whole Blair episode. 


"Yeah. Yeah, I'm good." I tell him. I don't need him prying. 


"You've been acting weird all week. You constantly zoned out on all my conversations, and you've been using drugs for only God knows what!!!"
