On the Edge of Love *on hold*

Forever loved

*Izzy's POV*

The drive home was quiet. As I already knew it would be. But, it was also sad. Knowing he was minutes away from leaving, with no intention of coming back. It's truly heartbreaking, even after the previous events. He stayed completely silent, not even a sound. When we finally pull into the driveway, he tries to leave the car as quick as he can. Before he gets the chance to get out, I grab his arm.

"Why? Honestly, why? You do know we care, don't you?"

"I don't know." He says sighing and shaking his head before getting out of the car. I wait a second before getting out and following him. Walking in the door, I already know that Noah and Jordan are still outside.

"There are in the back, come on."

"I don't want to go."

"Fine, just dont leave, please." I watch for a slight nod before heading out the backdoor. I lean on the porch observing the scene. Noah and Jordan look the exact same. Their knees pulled to their chin, arms hugging their legs even closer, staring out into the dark afternoon sky. There is inaudible words passed between them. I clear my throat, Noahs head quickly turns in my direction, while Jordan stays the same.

"I found him."

At my words Jordan turns his head, and slowly stands up walking onto the porch. Unexpectedly, he throws his arms around me in a tight hug.

He whispers a shaky thank you before releasing me and going inside. Once he is gone I walk down to where Noah is and sit next to him. He stares off into the distance, but still pulls me close.

"Where was he?"

"The train station. Noah, he was leaving. He thinks no cares, he is broken."

"Leaving? Where would he go? His whole life is here."

"That's the point. He was getting away from us, and I don't think he would have come back. He thinks we hate him."

*Aiden's POV*

Once Isabelle went outside, I walked into the bathroom. Looking into the mirror, I saw a different person. I used to be happy and welcoming. Now all there is, is a cold shell of what used to be. I cant take it. I miss how I was. I rest my elbows on the edge of the sink and clasp my hands behind my neck. I start to feel tears slip down my face, but the more I think of how I used to be, the more tears fall. I barely hear the back door open, signifying someone has come inside. Honestly, I dont even care anymore. Everyone here has seen me fall so low, what's a little crying? After a moment, I hear a knock on the door. I wipe my eyes before opening it, only to see Jordan. In one swift movement he hugs me extremely tight.

"Im so sorry."

"Why?"

"You felt unloved. No person on this earth should feel as if no one loves them. Because its love that keeps us going. If you don't have it, what's the point? You feel as if you have become  unloved, unwelcome, and un cared for. I swear to you, as much as you feel that, you aren't. Im so sorry that you felt like no one gave a second thought about you. But you are loved, so much, and you always have been and always will be. You are not only my friend, but you are like family to me. So to see you like this, if horrifying. Please, never let yourself fall so far again. If you feel like this, tell me. Or Noah, Isabelle, anyone close. I am positive they will tell you they care, because they do. We love you Aiden. Always remember that. Can you do that? Will you promise to always remember you are loved, forever and always?"

I was slightly taken aback. I never knew he cared, let alone this much. Letting out a small sigh, I close my eyes fighting back tears.

"I promise to try."
