Jordan's POV
We walked to where principal Moore said and walked into the detention room. Ashton and I sat in the corner. I looked over and saw that Ashton was tearing up. I reach over and rub his lower back and ask him what's wrong. "Thank you." He said.

"For what?" I asked.

"Stopping me that day in eighth grade." He looks up and smiles. The next thing I know we are in a hug. And I hear an all to familiar voice.

"Oh this is new, is gay boy actually bisexual?" He says and his group snickers.

"It's okay babe, the two loners belong together." Sydney says. Oh, did I forget to mention that Michael and Sydney are dating? Go figure.

I turn around and smile to myself. Ashton gives the best hugs ever. All the more reason to love him. He smelled like the Lush store. It was fabulous. With nothing to do I thought about what Ashton said. And I remember what happened. Exactly what happened.

*flashback*
The bus pulled up to school and I got off and went to meet up with Ashton. When we met up he seemed sad. Then we hear Michael. "Hey gay boy! Have any wet dreams about me last night?" He laughs. Ashton lowers his head and we keep walking. I rub his back.

And the we go to our classes. We met up after school and he handed me a note and told me to read it when I got home. With that, he ran off. Being the super curious person I am, I already opened it. My eyes filled with tears as my eyes scanned the page. At the worst timing Sydney sees me and they start beating me up. I couldn't be too late. My best friend it's about to take his own life. I was crying on the ground when Sydney picks up the note while her friends are beating me. She just laughed. That sick person just laughed.

Then, I get the strength to push them out of the way and I run to Ashton's house. I burst into the house and run up the stairs. And I hear Adams song. Blink 182, it was a band that we had listened to together when we were sad and needed each other. He needed me. I find him in his closet and stop him. He had his noose around his head and was about to kick the chair. And I cried to him. Begging him to not leave me. And with that he took off the noose and stepped down. He held me so closely. I almost lost him. And we stood there in silence. Just holding each other closer than we ever have.

I broke the silence. "I love you." Is all I pull choke out. "I love you too." He said. I could tell he was silently crying. But I don't think he meant it like I did. I pulled out my phone and turned on blink 182. I needed him. And he needed me.
