Sub's POV

Well. We're back in the hospital. Waiting for the doctor to come back with news about Elijah's condition. Denis was curled up, crying into his knees. I was holding Elijah's three stuffed animals. A police officer walked into the waiting room.

"Are you Denis Kotopun?" The officer asked. Denis looked up and nodded, whipping his tears away.

"Your mother has been charged with assault and battery on a disabled individual which is a Class F felony. She could face 364 days in county jail and $6,000 in fines." The officer explained. Denis's eyes widened. He nodded slowly and the officer left. Denis buried his face again. I tapped his shoulder and he looked up. I handed him Frank and smiled.

"You need rest. Frank will make sure you're safe." I said. Denis smiled and took the dragon. He hugged it and closed his eyes. I turned back to the other stuffed animals. The kangaroo stuck out the most. Ethan's old mascot was a kangaroo. Elijah probably remembered that. Which must be why he named it Bandi. I hugged it. I miss Ethan a lot. He died 6 years ago, but it still haunts me. I closed my eyes and fell asleep.

Elijah's POV

I opened my eyes to a white void. What is this place? I was on the floor. I could feel my legs and I wasn't in pain anymore. I stood up. Am I dead? I looked around. There was nothing. I could hear a faint beeping in the distance. The heart monitor. It sounded fast.

I was dying. 

I sighed. Finally. I won't have to suffer anymore.

I tried three times to kill myself. My arms were the first. I was trying to bleed to death. But I soon stopped since I wanted revenge on the people who kidnapped Elijah.

The second was drowning. When I pulled Alex into the pool, my cuts hurt so bad, Ethan was dead, and I couldn't live with the guilt of trying to hurt Alex. I passed out and hoped it worked, but I found myself above water still breathing.

The third was the building. That one I would consider a success. Although I didn't get the outcome I wanted, it was almost like I got another chance.

Now here I am. I guess this is considered murder. I don't want Denis's mom to be charged with murder. She might've been trying to kill me but insane person to insane person, I deserved it. The heart monitor sped up. I heard the shuffle of doctors and nurses.

Once I'm gone, I hope everyone will be happier. My family won't have me there to disappoint them. My friends won't have to take care of me and they can be happier. I felt at peace until someone wrapped me in a hug from behind. I turned to them.

"Ethan...?"
