Luke was beyond pissed. What mother tells her child to kill themselves? What mother tells her child that they are a mistake? He needed to calm down before he went and talked to Katie's mom. Luke barged into her moms room in a rage. "How dare you tell your own daughter to kill herself, how dare you tell her that she's a mistake. I know your husband died and your upset and you're allowed to be but don't blame her and tell her it's her fault and that she should die. You know she has depression and you know she hurts herself. What if it actually worked, what if you got up and you found her dead in the bathroom floor?! It's sick fucks like you that make Katie believe that she deserves to feel the way she does. It's people like you that make her feel worthless and shitty and she hurts herself because she thinks she needs to." Luke chokes out, tears streaming down his cheeks in frustration. "Luke" I said softly, trying not to cry. I reach out for him trying to get him in my arms. He walks over to me shutting my moms door pulling me to his chest. Luke lets out a sob, crying harder into my neck making me cry too. "I almost lost you" he sobbed into my neck making me hold him tighter. I ran my fingers through his hair trying to calm him down, but also reassuring the both of us that I'm alive. "I'm here baby, I'm alive" I whispered in his ear wanting his tears to stop. I wanted to tell him everything would be okay but I wasn't so sure about that. Luke lifted his head from my neck his eyes red and puffy. I wiped away his tears with my thumbs kissing his forehead. "I love you so much" luke whispered cupping my face in his hands wiping away a few tears. "I love you too" i leaned in kissing his lips softly pulling away slowly resting our foreheads together. "Can I stay with you" I sniffed wiping away more tears. "Of course" he smiled softly. I packed up a bag and I left as quietly as possible. 

*later that night*

"Luke" I asked. He nodded for me to continue. "I'm sorry" I said resting my head on his shoulder. Luke moved his arm so his arm was around me, his hand moving up and down my back. "You have nothing to be sorry for baby" he kissed my head, pulling me closer. "I love you more than anything" Luke held me in his arms, whispering sweet nothings in my ear until I fell in a peaceful sleep, both of us thankful that I'm alive.
