Call For Help (Janoskians/Luke brooks)

Chapter 20

----------Luke's POV----------

Alejandra slammed the car door and stomped into her house. My eyes were getting blurry and began stinging. I buried my face in my hands and sobbed, regretting what I did to get even with her. I checked the mirror and saw that my eyes were red and puffy. I wiped my wet face and turned on the car. I couldn't live without her. I love her so much but she hates me. I hate myself. 

 I drove into the city until I got onto a highway bridge high above the street below. I pulled over to the side and sat thinking what I should write for my good bye letter. I pulled two pieces of paper from a notepad and began writing.

"To anyone that bothered to read this,

   I know you may be wondering why I have left, Why I did it, How long i've been wanting to do this. I cannot answer all your questions as this is only a farewell letter. I love you all but I feel as if I was put in this world for nothing  but destruction. All I've ever done was hurt everyone I love. I've pushed everyone away, not because I do not love you but because I don't want to hurt you. I will never forget the people who love or loved me. I will miss the warm hugs given by mum and the insults and teasing Jai and Beau gave me. I will especially miss the comforting presence of my only love. The one who helped me feel better when I was at my worst, Alejandra. I will always love you, even if you do hate me.

                                                                          Lots of love,

                                                                         Luke Brooks 

                                                                I will never forget you guys."

 I put down my pen and opened the car door. I left the note on the driver's seat before shutting the door. I walked over to the 15 foot wall that separated the highway from the long drop to the ground. I climbed up the rocky wall to the top and stood there admiring the last scenery I would ever see. I walked along the ledge trying to build up the courage to jump. I chuckled to myself remembering myself building up the courage to ask Alejandra out on a date; Now I was building up the courage to end my life.

I started remembering all the good times we had. I already missed her warm hugs. I wish we could have lay together forever, her head on my chest, my arms wrapped around her. I started tearing up and I instantly wiped them away. I will always love her. My thoughts were suddenly interuppted by a police siren coming closer and closer until it parked right beneath where I was standing. It was followed by two cars; one I could recognize and the other I had seen before.

 My mum came out of the car along with all the boys. Alejandra came out of the other. I looked at them as they covered their mouths with their hands and began crying. The police men began talking through a bull horn trying to convince me to come back down.

"Sir, please calmly climb back down the wall to safety." 

"Yes, that's very convincing officer." I sarcastically thought to myself.

I continued to watch my family and friends to see what they would do. I saw Alejandra go back in her car and quickly drive down the highway. So, she didn't care if I killed myself. I began crying; I didn't try to hold it back, what was the point.

 I turned back to the long drop and looked down ready to end it. I heard cries and yelling from behind me. The polices' continued and I ignored them all. I took a step forward and braced myself. I inhaled a big breath and walked up to the very edge. From the corner of my eye I saw a dark figure walking towards me along the top of the wall. I turned to see who it was and saw Alejandra walking in my direction with her hands in the pocket of her black fleece hoodie. She finally reached me.

"If you jump, I'm going to jump after you." 

"Alejandra, please don't," I said in tears.

"You don't jump, I don't jump," She calmly said.

"I want to...My life is pointless without you."

"You have me."

"I'm going to hurt you again and again," I whispered loud enough to hear over the police.

"I'm just going to have to help you get better."

 I broke out into a smile and looked up to her grinning. I walked closer towards her and pressed my lips into hers. I felt her relax in my arms, something I needed. I pulled away and looked into her beautiful blue eyes.

"Now lets get the hell off here before we fall off," She jokingly said. I chuckled at her successful attempt to make me laugh. 

 We climbed down the wall and I pulled her into a hug. She hugged me back tightly, her arms around my chest as her head rested on shoulder. She pulled away a minute later insisting on us to go, I nodded in response.
