Emison: To me you are perfect

The great hendowski

"I know it's tough, but please don't give up
Don't speak that way, 'cause I won't allow you
You're too young to live this way
Just close your eyes and see
The true meaning
You're too young to live this way
Just look around and see
That life is beauty
How can you smile, when this life is all we've got?
There's no hole inside, no time that's long enough,
That can't be saved or healed
There's nothing that can't be covered with love"

Emily's pov

I decided to go to school today so I could at least see Alison without risking the chance of having the door slammed in my face. I got ready and walked to school.

"Hey Em" I wasn't really in the mood to talk and I probably looked terrible cause my eyes were puffy from the night before

"Hey Han" none of us have talked about the night before I think they're scared to bring it up

"So how's it going?" I just shrugged I really didn't want to talk.

The bell rung and I scrambled into first period. I sat next to were Ali usually sits and waited and waited but she never showed up. I haven't talked to her since the night before and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't worried. I just kind of brushes it off and sent her a text

I'm sorry about last night, xox -Em

It was lunch time and I was truly worried so I decided to go to her house. Her door wasn't locked so I walked in and checked her room. She wasn't there. I went to the bathroom and she was sitting there fully clothed with her feet in the water. There were a couple pill bottles on the counter. I grabbed them and checked them to see if they were full which they were. She was startled by the noise and whipped her head around. Her eyes were more puffy then mine and had tear stains.

"Ali" I went up to her and touched her arm and she was cold and silent.

She stood up and drained the water she held her hands out. I was confused but I looked and realized I was still holding the pill bottles

"You're not going to end your life like this" she tried to grab them but I put my hand up

"Em, please leave" I grabbed her arm and pulled her into her room. I put the pill bottles down

We sat on her bed and I  checked her wrist they were clean

"I was trying not to break my promise" she said and looked at me

I hugged her I felt so bad. "I'm sorry about last night I'm not going to leave you"

She smiled "I can't promise I won't leave you"

I frowned confused on what she meant then I realized she was talking about death

"Don't talk like that please" she frowned

"Why would you try to do this?"

She sighed "I thought I lost you, I realized I shouldn't be sad about my dad I was to dumb to realize, I got a call from the hospital he's okay and I think they're letting him come home even after what they saw"

How can they let that monster back into this house

"We're going to get surprise check ups but that's about it" she looked at me again "he's going to blame me for getting shot he's going to hurt me"

I could tell she was truly frightened I hugged her and whispered

"I'll protect you" I felt like a mother to Ali

She fell asleep and I hid the pills, I went downstairs to make her something to eat. I was also trying to plan a date because I'm pretty sure we haven't been on one of those. I made her a gourmet grilled cheese sandwich and brought it up I set it on the dresser and crawled on top of her.

I kissed her cheek and she slowly opened her eyes

"Sleeping beauty is awake" she laughed and I got off of her and handed her my delicious food and sat next to her

"I was thinking on taking you on a date" she bit into her grilled cheese

"This is so good" she laughed

"Hey I just offered to take you on a date and you're focused on the sandwich"

She laughed again "it's so good though"

"What do you say"

"Thank you"

"I'm talking about the date" I lightly pushed her

"I guess"

I smiled and watched her eat her food
