I rode around for a few minutes, looking for my two friends. Dustin and Mike were near the store, there was cops and everyone was outside.
"What happened?" I said. They turned to me.
"Eleven." Mike said. "Come on."
We rode through the woods calling out for her. We ran into Troy and whatever his name was, Jack? Brody? I don't know.
Now, 5 minutes later, Troy was holding a knife to Dustin. I watched Mike walk towards the cliff.
"Stop!" I yelled.
Troy stared at his friend, his friend walked towards me, I swung my elbow, hitting him in the side of his head. I kick out my leg, my leg hits the back of his knee hard, causing him to fall.
"Let him go." I said.
"No!"
I rolled my eyes.
"Jump now!" Troy yelled at mike. "Or fat-face is going to get a trip to the dentist!"
"Stop! I will jump." I yelled out.
"What! No!"
I looked at Troy,"wouldn't that be much better? Haven't I been stopping you from bullying them?Then you could bully them forever basically!" I then added, "It's like really good revenge."
I walked towards Mike and grabbed his hand, I went in front of him. "Back up."
"No, Maddie!" Mike yelled as the other guy grabbed him.
"No! Don't do it!"
"Maddie!"
Troy started to count down.
"Maddie! No!"
"I don't need my baby-teeth! Don't do it."
I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. I remember at the police station, these two police officers were talking about Will. They said he could have jumped. . .from here.
What if he did?
What if he wasn't alive?
Would I be with him now?
I thought of my brother, I would never see him again. Billy, I am sorry for leaving you alone.
"Maddie, don't!"
"Hurry up! Do it! Jump!" Troy and his friend yelled.
I deserved this. I let Will die. I let my mother leave. I left my brother to be abused. I put one of my feet off the edge and my left met the right one. I gasped as my hair flew up, my upper body went forward, and I knew I was going to practically bellyflop into the water which was going to feel like cement.
