To Stay} Alex Gaskarth

Reason Two

Dear Izzie,

Day two. Eight more to go. I hope your staying strong and that this day has or will be really good for you :) oh I should add a nose to that :-) nah I feel like a creeper doing that. Oh wait, I'm writing this in pen. Crap.

haha ignore that. Sorry, this is supposed to be sorta serious and I've gone and ruined that. C'mon Alex, focus.

The second reason I have for you to stay is your family.

I know that they're some of your best friends. My family is some of my best friends too so I understand completely. It's a special bond. Nothing can comprehend to it.

Think about every single member of your family. Your mom, dad, older brother and younger sister. Whether you believe it or not, you influence their lives.

To your parents, your an answer to prayer. You can take care of your younger sister and you make them realize how good they have it. They could have a drug /beer addicted daughter. Instead they get a daughter obsessed with bands and tumblr.

Your older brother thinks your crazy. I know it gets on your nerves how much he tells you that but don't take it to heart. I've spoken to him before and he thinks your one of the best people he knows. He only wants the best for you, Iz.

Your younger sister thinks your the greatest, most fabulous, prettiest, funniest, coolest person on earth. Those are words straight from her mouth. Well that and I should let her paint my fingernails.

I did. She decided green would match my eyes perfectly. I dunno where she got that idea from. The orange would go much better with my brown eyes.

don't judge me, she gave me those puppy dog eyes and how do you say no to those? I melt under pressure anyways. Did you know she can make some killer cookies on her easy bake oven?

but to rephrase her statement, your her role model, Iz. She wants to be you when she grows up. Think of how much an honor that is. She thinks your cool enough that she wants to be you.

Izzie, can you imagine what would happen to them if you carried out your plan? How crushed they would be? How would they find out? Through a note or a video?

With my brother, we found out by a policeman coming to our door. I've never been that crushed before. We were friends back then so I'm sure you remember. That's what started my anxiety, the fear that who knows when the last time you could see a family member could be.

Please, Iz, don't do that to your family. I don't want to see your little sisters eyes lose their glow or a policeman have to walk to your door. I don't want to see everyone just give up hope.

Your so loved and it pains me to see that you can't see it. Your family loves you, Iz. I love you

so please hold on tight, this ride is a wild one

your concerned friend
