Ashlynn's P.O.V
It's been a few weeks since Jackie died and ever since the funeral I locked myself up in my room and nearly never came down, except a few times a week to get some food. I've been sitting in my room sulking. I texted a few of my friends like Jackson and Lilly (Lily is another close friend). Jackson and my friend Melissa tried to come and hang out around my house but I have refused, I don't need to get pitied, and I don't want to interact with another human being.

My mom is making me get "checked out" by my doctor.

I was about to get up and leave before I got a wonderful idea. I texted my best friend Jackson and told him I needed his help.

A: hey Jackson. I need your help with a plan. Will you meet me at the park in Ten?
I texted and soon enough he responded.

J: yeah, but what's the plan?
A: I'll tell you when we get there. Just don't tell anyone you are meeting me or you are going anywhere. Sneak out through your window.
J: okay! Glad to see you are up and ready to hang out! See you there.

Poor Jackson! He has got no idea what I'm about to ask him to do for me. I brush my hair, teeth, and get on a decent able outfit. I hope my hair doesn't look to greasy, I haven't washed it since the funeral.

I climb out my window and sprint to the park where I'm meeting Jackson.

Emma's P.O.V

I asked my husband, Killian, to make an appointment for Ashlynn. She locked herself in her room for about 3 weeks. I'm really worried about her. I know she misses Jacklin, but what happened happened, there is no way to go back to fix it.

"Ash, it's time to leave." I yell up to Ashlynn. I don't get a reply so I walk calmly up to her room. I knock, but again, no answer, so I walk in.

"Ash, come on hunny, we-" I stop dead in my sentence. "KILLIAN!!! GET UP HERE NOW!!!" I can't believe she would ever go this far. I find my only alive daughter laying on the floor covered in blood, with a knife in hand.

Killian's P.O.V

I was watching football on tv after I made my daughter her doctor appointment. My wife, Emma, was worried about her so I called in.
In the middle of the game I I ears my wife calling me.

"KILLIAN!!!! GET UP HERE NOW!!!" Oh brother I wonder what I did now.

I get off the sofa and walk up to Emma where she is standing in Ashlynn's room.

"What did-" I stop and star at our only alive daughter on the ground, covered in blood.

"She-she killed herself. Because of me. I wasn't the mother she deserved, I wasn't here for her, when she needed a mother the most!" Sobs Emma.

"No, no, no. This is not your fault. It's not no ones fault. She did what she did and what she did, can not be reversed, even though we both want that to happen." I say trying to reassure myself more then her.

"No Killian! She died because I wasn't here to help her get through this horrible death!" She yells and runs to Ashlynn.

I let her hold her even though she will have blood on her.

I walk over and fall on my knees and hold Emma and cry. I can't believe I let this happen. Now because I was watching Football, I wasn't there to stop her from killing herself.
