Thirteen Reasons (Harry Styles)

Prologue

What is life? 

That’s a question that a lot of people ask, but very few get the answer to it. That very few who do know what life is, don’t even have the words to describe it. 

I do. 

And I’m going to do my best to try and describe it to you. 

It won’t be as good as it was when I was actually alive and living it, but memories are the next best thing, aren’t they? 

I think so. 

And so, let’s begin the story, shall we? 

~~~

I set the pen down, my hand was already cramping up from writing and rewriting these words. I wanted them to be perfect. After all, they were going to be my last. 

Looking up from the notebook and towards the bed, I watched his sleeping face. Pain tore through my gut knowing that he wasn’t going to get much sleep for the nights to come. 

But my decision was already made. There’s nothing on this earth that will change my mind. 

I take a deep breath, and close my eyes. Life isn’t easy. Like John Green explained through Augustus in The Fault in Our Stars, I’m on a rollercoaster that only goes up my friend. 

That was me, only with the exception that my rollercoaster was about to go down and it won’t come up. 

I put the top on the pen and close the notebook. Rising up from the chair, I cross over the room and press a kiss to his cheek. 

It’s better that I finish the letter alone. Without his beautiful face to distract me… because if anything, he’s probably the only thing that will keep me here. He’s the only one who can convince me to stay. 

Which is why I’m not even giving him a chance to. 

      “It’s for the best,” I whisper, mostly to myself. I kiss his cheek again before pulling on his jacket and leaving the room. 

It truly was for the best… wasn’t it? 

I thought so… which is why I was leaving.

A/N: So this is the first chapter in this story. I had a faint idea about this last month, and then started Jay Asher's thirteen reasons why (I haven't finished it yet though) and just fell in love with the idea of it... I don't know why but recently I just felt like writing the saddest freaking love story ever. 

So anyway, this is going to be it! at least I plan it to be... but this is why it's losely based on Jay Asher's book, because it is sorta half of his title and involves suicide... 

ANYWAY... comment your thoughts, I'll post up the next chapter as soon as I can.
