||Cameron POV||

After Ricky took out the last guy, every one of Kyle's friends either ran away or were on the ground. 

"Is everyone okay?" I asked.

"Yeah, I think so." replied Jc.

"Speak for yourself, buddy." said Trevor with a bloody nose.

"I can't believe they would attack us like that." said Shawn.

"And the fact that Julie goes through this everyday..." I quietly said.

"Speaking of Julie, where is she?" asked Jack G.

"Shawn and I took her to go hide at Starbucks so she wouldn't get hurt." Matt said.

When we arrived at Starbucks, Julie wasn't there. We all began to call out for her, but we got no reply. 

I went inside to see if she was there, but she wasn't.

"Excuse me, have you seen a girl with dark skin, black braids, yey high?" I asked the girl behind the counter.

When she was answering my question, all the guys were surrounding the counter to listen.

"Yeah. She said something about something being her fault and ending it now... then she got up and ran out of here." 

"Oh shit, you don't think she's gonna..." Taylor quietly asked.

"Or maybe she already..." Sam chimed in sadly.

"Shush. We gotta go, NOW!" I yelled. 

We all rushed out of Starbucks and began to run for Julie's house. I was so scared on what we could find. I hope she is okay. Please be okay, Julie, please.

||Jack G POV||

As we got to Julie's house, Connor took the spare key under the mat (I know, typical) and opened the door. We all went inside and began to look and call out for her.

"JULIE!" I screamed.

"JUlIE, WHERE ARE YOU?" Nash yelled.

"Guys, I can't find her." Carter yelled.

"What if she already-" Aaron began to say.

"DON'T THINK LIKE THAT!" I yelled. "She's gotta be here."

I made my way upstairs to look in her room. I opened the door and realized that she wasn't there, but the bathroom light was on. I tried to open the door, but it was locked. I used all my strength and kicked her door open. What lied on the bathroom ground was an almost dead Julie. 

"GUYS, JULIE'S UP HERE! HURRY!" I screamed as I gathered her in my arms.

"Why, Julie? You're gonna be okay. You're gonna be okay." I whispered in her ear as tears ran down my cheeks.

"Oh my god, Julie!" yelled Connor.

"Call 911!" Cameron said.

"The ambulance should be here any minute." said Nash.

A couple minutes later, the ambulance arrived. They carried Julie downstairs and brought her into the ambulance.

"Jack, you should go in the ambulance to make sure she's okay." Ricky told me.

"That's what I was planning." I said as I climbed into the ambulance.

"We'll meet you there." he replied.

I sat there in the ambulance looking at a pale, broken Julie. Her whole body barely had any color, her eyes were dark, and her lips were pale. Just seeing her like this scared me and made me cry. 

Please be okay.

*at the hospital*

When the ambulance arrived at the hospital, they immediately took her into a room and began to work on her.

"Sir, I need you to wait outside in the waiting room, please. I don't want you to see this." she said.

All I did was nod. When I went out to the waiting room, I saw that all the guys were there. 

"Jack! How is she? Will she be okay?" asked Trevor.

"They're doing all they can right now." I replied.

"Do they know what she did?" asked Kian.

"No."

After that, everything was silent. Everyone was either crying or sitting there worried and upset as ever. What if she didn't make it? What if she actually succeeded in killing herself? I don't want her to die. I'm pretty sure no one wants her to. Oh gosh oh gosh oh gosh. While we were sitting there, I saw a woman come in and ask for Julie. I realized that it was her mother.

"Mrs. Brooks?" I said. (A.N. Julie's last name will be Brooks because why not)

"Oh, hello. Can I help you?" she asked with a faint smile.

"I'm guessing you're looking for your daughter, Julie." 

"Yes, I'm guessing you're a friend of hers?" she said.

"Yes, well we all are," I said, gesturing towards everyone else, "everyone, this is Julie's mom."

After everyone introduced themselves, the doctor came out to tell us about Julie.

"Well, we were able to get Julie breathing again, but she cannot breathe on her own for now. But luckily, we were able to get the excess toxins from the pills she took out of her system, and she is stable for now." he said.

"Wait, pills? She wouldn't overdose on pills." Mrs. Brooks said.

"Yes, I understand, which is why we feel that the excess pills was on purpose. In other words, we think she tried to kill herself." the doctor said.

"...no...why would she..."

"I think it's time we tell you since you apparently don't know." I told her.

||Julie POV||

Everything was white. I was looking around and realized I was in the hospital. Oh yeah, I tried to kill myself. I'm so stupid ugh. I must be a ghost right now or whatever, so I made my way to the waiting room and saw all the boys and my mother sitting there. I knew they couldn't see me or hear me, but I could.

"I'm such a terrible mother." my mom said.

Why would she say that? No she isn't.

"No you're not, Mrs. Brooks." Cameron said.

"She couldn't even tell me she was being physically bullied. She lied to me about her wrist, and I didn't question it. And now she tried to kill herself. She wouldn't have tried to kill herself if she didn't feel she couldn't talk to me. I'm so sorry, baby girl. I'm so sorry, Julie."

"She'll be okay. She's strong, and she can fight through this. She knows you care so much for her." Shawn told her.

At this point, I was in tears. I knew my mother cared for me. She was just so stressed about my dad situation and work, I didn't want to add anymore problems on her. This was such a selfish act I did. All of these people care for me, and I go and try to kill myself. Well, Shawn's right about one thing: I can fight through this. I went back to my room and tried my best to wake myself up. As soon as I tried, everything went black. I opened my eyes and saw a bright light. 

"No, please. I'm not ready to leave yet." I told myself.

But then I realized that it was a hospital light. I tried to move my fingers and I could. I realized that I was back in my body and I was awake. 

"Thank you, God." I told myself.
