I walk into to only other place I imagine him to be. The wood where he brought me and We almost kissed, then cal showed up and ruined the moment. I looked in the park: he wasn't there. I looked all over the streets: he was nowhere to be seen. I called all of the guys: no one has heard from him or knows where he is. They are also calling the other few of Simons friends who's numbers I don't have.

I try Simons phone again, no answer. Until I hear it ringing. I look I front of me where I see his phone and a pill bottle which looked empty. I then looked up and see a noose wrapped round the tree with Simon holding onto it. I gasped out of shock. Me and Simon said nothing for a few seconds. We just looked at each other.

"Simon, don't do it. Please, for me." I call up to him.

"I'm sorry." Those two words made me cry.

"Simon, no! Please, I'll never forgive myself if you do it." I call up again to him.

"Desi, please just go home." He said.

I slowly walk towards his phone and the pill bottle. I read the bottle. 'Zimovane' not one pill left in the bottle.

"Simon come down, or I'll have to come and get you. Please don't do this. You're only twenty three for goodness sake, it's not your time to leave this world yet." I say loud enough for him to hear me.

He shakes his head and wipes his eyes. I begin climbing up the tree. He goes closer to the noose.

"Trust me." I say to him quietly. He states still as I sit next to him on the branch. It was thick and sturdy so I knew it would hold.

"Please, tell me why you're thinking about this. Suicide is not the answer Simon. If it's anxiety, depression, stress, you can get help. After my tour, I'll have plenty money to keep me going, I can buy you the best therapist in the uk." I say.

"I'm sorry I did that to you. " he said.

He couldn't even look me in the eyes. I put my hand on his, he flinches and looks at my eyes for a second before looking at the noose again.

"You've done nothing to me. Nothing." I say.

"Yes I did Desi. I don't know why you're here." He said.

"What did you do? It couldn't be anything bad. Wait. Is this about last night?" I say.

"Yes, Desi. Yes it is."

"I made you do that and you didn't want to. I am so sorry." He cried into his hands.

"Simon. Wow." I say.

He thinks he made me sleep with him.

"You didn't make me at all. Simon I wanted to as much as you did. It's okay, I promise you." I say.

"You did? But what if you're just saying that?"

"Simon, please come down. We can go somewhere and talk about this. It's okay, you did nothing wrong." I say. He nods.

"I'll call your mum, I'll tell her you're okay and I'll tell her to get the police to leave." I say.

"Police?" He asked.

"Mums get very worried Simon." I say.

After a few minutes I had gotten him down to the ground safely and he had told me he took the rest of the pills in the bottle which was already half empty. And after that I picked up his phone and the pill bottle, called his mum and took him into my house, in my room.

***

"One second. Let me tell my mum I'm back." I say to Simon, leaving him in my bedroom.

I walk down into the kitchen and tell mum what happened. She called for an ambulance and a paramedic for Simon. Half a bottle is still a lot.

The ambulance arrived and checked Simon over, he will be okay but I'd any side affects begin happening he has to go to hospital straight away. We explained a lot of the situation, not what happened the night before as mum was there and I didn't want to say anything whilst she was there.

I go upstairs back where Simon was. His mum was on her way, Simon didn't want to go to his house. I think it was because he somehow was disappointed in himself and didn't want to talk to his mum.

"Aw Simon." I sit next to where he lay on my bed.

"My mum and dad are moving to Sheffield. My aunt lives there and my mum wants to move there." Simon said, he sounded very exhausted and tired.

" They are?" I gulped.

"They not me. Not me if I can move in with Josh or something." He said.

"That's not so bad right?" I ask.

"That's like 2-3 hours away from here. I sure as hell am not going with them." He said.

"Right. You get some sleep, I'll wake you up when your mum gets here or whatever." I say and stand up.

"Okay." He sighed. I hate seeing him upset like this. At least I can see him. He could have killed himself today.
