Toby's POV
"Toby?" I hear Walter's voice through the comms.
"Yes?" I ask, hopeful that they have heard from Happy.
"We have not heard from Happy, but Sly found her location." Walter said.
"That's a good thing, right?" I ask.
"Yeah. I'll send you the location so that you can head over there. We will stay here in case she decides to come back."
"Okay thanks." I pull over and look at my phone. Happy's location. I turn the car around and follow the GPS. Its a two hour drive and all I can hope for is that I'm not too late.

Happy's POV
I sit at the bridge's edge for a while. It's really pretty up here, and the only thing that's keeping me from jumping off of this bridge right now is my baby. Toby's baby. Toby. I miss him. A lot. But that isn't going to make me go back. If I go back, I'll just make Toby suffer a lot more than he already has. I look down at my ring finger. We're still engaged. I take the ring off of my finger and put it in my pocket. There's no need for me to be engaged when I'm never going to get married.

Toby's POV
I call for backup ambulances and cops just in case. We are both twenty minutes away. Once I get there, I park the truck and see the shadow of a figure sitting on top of the railings of a bridge. Could that be? Happy? I hop out of the truck and yell "Happy! Don't do it! I love you!" She looks at me with disappointment.
"I'm setting you free, Toby. You deserve to be happy with someone else. I'm clearly not making you happy. Instead, I'm making you stress and worried. You're free now. I'm sorry, Toby. Just know that I will always love you. Always." I run to her, my sight blurred with tears. When I get to her, she puts out her hand and hands me the engagement ring. "Happy...please. Don't do this..."
"Don't make it worse, Toby. It's time for me to go. I don't have a purpose being here. I'm dangerous to be around."

Happy's POV
After I finish talking, I have flashbacks.
Flashback starts
"No! Beca! Don't do it!" I shout to my older sister. Her face is tear-streaked as she stands on top of the bridge. I go to grab her, but when I get there, she is already gone. I call 911, but it's too late. I lost the one thing that made me feel like I knew my mom. I will never forget this day.
Flashback ends.
Another flashback starts (Takes place before Beca jumps off of the bridge)
"Our mom is dead, Happy!" Beca yelled at me. "You killed her! You're responsible.
"I know." I mumble.
"How could you live with yourself? You're a murderer." Beca shouts. I just sit there crying helplessly and wishing that I could just disappear.
Flashback ends.
I did it. I killed her. I can't believe that after all these years, I'm still alive. Well, things need to change. I'm gonna be that change. I stand up on the railing and close my eyes, blinking away the tears. 1...2...3...and then, I jump.
The bridge is about 200 feet above the water. 50 feet into the fall, I feel like I'm flying, like all the pain has disappeared. I open my arms and feel my tears fly away from my face. It feels so good to just let everything loose and not have to worry about anything. I flip over so that when I land, my back will break the fall and the baby will be safe. I know that Toby's backup is going to try and save me, which is why I'm trying to keep the baby as safe as possible. I'm most likely to die, but Toby's backup will most likely save the baby. That's what really matters. Before I know it, I plunge into the water and all of my consciousness is lost.
