Alex's POV:

I sit there confused. I don't know who to choose. Camilla or Marie. I love both of them. Well, I guess that since I started dating Camilla first, then I'll stay with her.

It's been an hour since Marie said she'd be here when my phone rings. "Hello?" I say, answering the phone.

"Hello, I am Marie's adopted mom. I just recently adopted her, and she said that she was going to your house, but just as she walked out of the driveway, she got hit by a van that drove away. Marie's in the hospital." Marie's mom says through sobs.

I start sobbing. "W-what hospital? I'm going there right now." I say.

"The hospital on Fifth Avenue." Marie's mom says.

I say, "Ok." And I hang up the phone. I yell through my tears, "Demi! Come up here!"

Demi runs upstairs, comes into my room and says, "What's wrong?"

When she notices that in crying, she sits on the bed next to me and gives me a hug. "Alex, what happened?" Demi says.

"I need to you to drive me to the hospital." I say.

"Why?" Demi says.

"Cause Marie is in the hospital. So we leave now." I say as I run down the steps, with Demi running after me.

"Wait! Why is Marie in the hospital?" Demi says as I hand her the car keys and wait for her to unlock the car.

"Because she got hit by a van." I say as I get in the car. We drive to the hospital in silence. I jump out of the car when we get there and I go to the front desk and ask where Marie is. They tell me her room number and Demi and I go and find her room.

I walk in and I see Marie lying there. She looks dead. She is unconscious. I break down and start sobbing. Demi's arms go around me and I don't bother to push her off me.

"Demi, I'm scared. I don't want her to die." I say through my sobs.

"She won't, she's gonna be ok." Demi says.

Then, I hear a flatline and my sobs get worse. Doctors come running in and push Demi, Marie's mom, and I out into the waiting room. The doctors come out a few minutes later.

"We did everything we could, but we couldn't save her. She's gone." One of the doctors say.

I sit there feeling numb. I go to the nearest bathroom and grab the blade that I put in my phone case and take it out. I pull my sleeve up and I slice at my wrist deep, but not deep enough to die. It takes me ten minutes to stop the bleeding. I go out and go back to Demi.

"Demi, can we leave soon? Cause now I have no reason to stay here." I say with no emotion in my voice.

Demi says, "We are leaving when we planned because there are no sooner flights."

When we get back to the house I say, "Demi, I don't trust myself alone tonight. Could you stay with me?"

Demi nods her head and leads me to her room. She hands me a pair of pajamas and grabs herself some and goes to the bathroom. I change into the pajamas that are thankfully long sleeved.

Demi comes back in and we get on the bed. Demi cuddles into me and we go to sleep.
