( Phil's POV )

I left Dan and Quinn in the garden to go and talk to mum.She told be that Quinn hadn't eaten and the break up had taken it huge hit. I could even see that she was slipping away and I think Quinn knows it as well.

I walked into the kitchen,
"Mum?!" I shouted,
"Phil?" She replied, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing. I'm just wondering if you can book Quinn a doctor's appointment for a fews time?" I smiled, sitting in one of the stools.
"Does Quinn want that? Will she even go?" My mum questioned sitting in a stool next to me,
"I have no idea but I know she needs to see someone and me and Dan will be with her" I could tell my mum cared a lot because she stayed with Quinn in the hospital last time.
"Dan and her have got very close" She laughed,
"Yeah. It's nice though" I smiled,
"I think it's nice too. I mean, Dan is a nice boy and Quinn needed someone new in her life and Dan was the right one"
"Yeah, I trust Dan and the fact that he hates to see people go through things like this makes him care even more" I stood up to walk outside again,
"Phil, thank you for staying over this weekend" Mum smiled,

"Don't mention it"

I walked outside, Quinn was on Dan's lap. They were sat in what felt like a comfortable silence, I sat opposite them,
"Quinn?" 
"Yeah?" She looked up at me, puffy-eyed and dripping with sadness.
"Mum's booking you a doctor's appointment"

Her face turned white, "Phil! NO! I'm not going! I can't go!" She defended herself.
"Why?" Dan asked. Quinn jumped off his legs and stood in front of us. Her thin ill figure was before us, soaked in tiredness.
"I don't need a doctor!" She said,
"Quinn, you do. We will go with you, like we promised" Dan stood up as well.
"Wait! Why don't you need a doctor?" I questioned, standing up as well. Every since last time, I have always asked her questioned because what she said might have nothing to do with what she meant,
"I just don't need doctors" She huffed and looked down. Dan and I looked at each others then at her, "I don't want to get better!" she shouted.
"Quinn, you have to get better." I calmly said,
"NO Phil! I don't! sick people don't just better and stay better!" She shouted again,
"What do you mean?" Dan asked, taking a littler step closer.
"I don't want to get better. Let me suffer! Bad people suffer! I'm a terrible person" She paused, "I don't want to carry on! Every friendship or relationship I get, I end up killing it! Now it's my turn!" Quinn bolted off.

"No!" I shouted at myself,
"Phil?" Dan turned to me,
We heard the door slam shut. Quinn ran out the house. "Not again!" I sighed,
"Phil?" Dan asked,
"This happened last time, all i'm going to say is we need to get to her quickly!" We ran inside and put our shoes on,
"How do you know where she is?" Dan said tying his lace,
"When she was used last time, she found a tree in a forest. Since then she had carved every problem into the tree. I've seen it without her knowing and the things are bad!" I said to Dan as we ran out the house.

 We ran to the forest and I took Dan to near the tree. I stopped running.
"The tree." I Pointed to an Oak tree on it's own in a huge ditch, the tree was really old but had lots of branches to sit on. "Ready?" 
"Yeah" Dan and I walked to the tree,
