Little Bird

Chapter One

'Spencer's POV'

Today was day 63. I had council today. I hated council. We just sit in a circle and listen to each other's sad stories. It is no help all it does is teach you how we live in a cruel world. I sat in a chair, looking at the other people. I noticed one chair was empty. I remember who sat there. A girl named Caroline. She had lung cancer. I looked at the empty chair. She's in heaven now, she's lucky she ended her suffering. Than I noticed a small girl with a cap sat in her spot, than a tall blonde came in, rolling an oxygen tank next to her and kissing her cheek. I looked at our councilor, Bryan, "who's that?" He looked at the girl and the tall blonde than down at the list.

"Agh the little girl is Melanie, age 5 staged with leukemia and that's Kendall Schmidt he's her uncle, he's very famous so we're asking for no celebrity treatment okay?" I nodded than slouched in my chair. He looked sad, he stared at his niece with watery eyes. "Okay so today we have a new friend today! Welcome Melanie and her uncle Kendall!" No one payed attention to Bryan because frankly no one cared. Kendall and his niece small smiled. I felt bad actually it sucks to be here it's like not even help it's just people saying how much they've been through pain and you won't last long in this world. "Welcome Mel I'm sure we can have fun" I smiled and looked at Melanie. She breathed heavily and smiled.

After we talked about how our weekend was it was snack time. I looked at the disgusting organic snack on the table, I grabbed a juice box and a chocolate chip cookie, and headed back to my seat. I was on my phone when, "You don't look like you have cancer" I looked besides me and Melanie was there eating a gluten free cookie. I giggled and faced her. "I did, but now I'm cancer free just like you will soon baby girl" I smiled but she wasn't quite satisfied. "than why're you here?" My smile went away, how was I suppose to tell a little girl I tried killing myself.

"Mel! I'm sorry she likes asking questions." Her uncle rushed over and sat besides me "why don't you go eat your cookie over there" she nodded, kissed his cheek and rushed to the snack table. "It's fine she's a little girl"

He ate his cookie, nodding. "How can you eat that?" I said grossed out. He chuckled and looked over at me. "Well I love organic food" I looked over at him. He was not that bad looking. Actually he was hot. But I promised myself I would not fall in love ever. I didn't want to hurt the ones I love if I'm gonna die soon. "But why are you here?.." He asked with a soft voice. I sighed and looked at my hands. "suicide attempt." Was all I said before he dropped his cookie. "I'm sorry to hear that. I'm glad you're safe."

"Thank you. I guess it wouldn't had mattered anyways. But I really hope your niece turns out okay" he raised his eyebrows and chuckled.

"Niece? She's my daughter....
