Maddie's POV

I'm a loner. Why am I still living, no one cares. College is hard, trying to keep the bills paid in my apartment as been a pain in my butt. I can hardly take care of myself. It is time to end my pathetic life. I walk into my bathroom and take a bottle of pills. My hands are shaking, sweat on my body, tears from my eyes, pouring like I'm some type of water fall.

My head keeps telling me to just do it, like just get it over with. Like, no one is gonna miss me. Why would they? My parents said they didn't want to see any part of me. For what.... because I'm a screw up. They think I am going to ruin their precious reputation. Just because I didn't want to become a lawyer, and go to Harvard. I wanted to study music. Its my passion. So instead I chose NYU.

Why am I still thinking about this!!! YOU KNOW WHAT....SCREW THIS!! I'm TAKING THE PILLS.. I unscrew the cap of pills, still having shaky hands... I put a hand full of pills in my hand. Well, here goes nothing. But instead of taking the pills, being a punk, like I usually am, I put them down. And I just scream on the top of my lungs, slid down on the floor, then just start crying, like a five year old who couldn't get a toy that they wanted from the toy store.

I decided to get myself off the floor, and go take a walk around New York. So I wiped my red puffy eyes and left.

While I was walking, I'm wasn't paying any attention whatsoever, being so stupid, I kept walking and walked right into a moving truck. Then I heard a horn blowing coming my way, once I looked up I thought I was dead. But, opened my eyes and I am not even in the street anymore. I was so lucky. Then something caught my eye. There was some guy on me.

He looked up, and I saw his face. He was so beautiful. He had curly dark brown hair and emerald eyes. OH MY GOD!!! EMERALD EYES!!! You hardly see anybody with those eyes. I couldn't help but to stare at him. Sadly, my staring was cut short by him picking me off the ground.

Are you okay? he said. Um hello?? I quickly snapped out of my thoughts and came back to reality. What did you say? I asked. I asked if you were alright. he said.

Um, I'm okay, but I think I sprained my ankle. He just smiled and picked me up and carried me into some chinese restaurant. As we walked in, he sat me down at a booth and asked one of the empolyee's for some ice. He stood there for a good five minutes, until they gave him some ice. He came over to me and smiled. Then he sat across from me, and said "let me see your foot". So I gave him my foot, he gently put the ice on my foot.

I'm Brandon. what yours? he said. Um, my name is Maddie. And we both shook hands. Brandon asked me if I go to school. I smile a little.

Yea, I go to NYU. It's okay, I guess. I mean if your looking for a place to find a lot of freaks. He smiled at my comment. To this point my heart was going to blow up. His smile was the second most beautiful thing in my life. The first one I will never tell.

Brandon's POV

Okay, by so far this has been my weirdest day yet. At this point I am very happy and very confused. Partly confused how I just walked from a party that I really didn't even want to go to, from saving some girl's life, then to helping her with her sprained ankle, to actually having a conversation with her. But, happy because she is the most ravishing girl I ever saw in my entire life.

So, you go to NYU, I never seen you around there. And trust me when I tell you, I know a lot of people there. I would of recognized a beautiful face like yours. She smiled. I doubt it though. I'm practically invisible to almost everyone there. she said.

Are you sure? It would be very hard to past a face like that and not even noticing. She started blushing, very hard. Aww, but sadly its true, Maddie said. Well maybe that won't happen if you can hang around me sometime, or-uh hang out sometime together. She chuckled. Sure, I would love to do that sometime. I smiled widely. Great! So-uh I gotta get going, so bye!! Wait!! let let walk you home it is the least I could do, and to make sure you don't walk in front of anymore vehicles tonight, I laughed. Very funny, she smiled. And sure you can walk me home.

Maddie's POV

As we walk to my door. I stopped. So, this is my door. Well, it was nice meeting me Brandon, I said. Me too, Maddie. So can we hang out sometime at school. I slightly grinned. "I would really love that." We both told each other goodbye, and I shut my door, and smile. Sadly I stop because I recognize the pills I had from earlier.

Right now, I'm a little happier than I was earlier. Maybe I should stay on earth just a little bit longer. Just see how well it goes with Brandon. He seems like a pretty nice guy. Not to mention, HE'S HOT! Besides what do I have to lose. Oh yeah, I don't. It's not like I'm gonna stay. But anyways Its worth a shot.
