Letter two

"Yo Grayson" I said loudly as I sat on the couch

"What" he screamed back from upstairs

"Come here"

He hurried down the stairs quickly sitting on the couch beside me

"I got to tell you something" I said, "Its about Amber"

As soon as he heard her name, his smile turned to a frown

"W-What about her dude?"

"I think she killed herself"

His face turned to fear, he looked blue in the face,

"No she couldn't have" he spoke quietly, "I would've known. Her parents would've called"

"Grayson.." I said, "I have been getting letters in the mail and I want you to read them okay?"

"Okay" he took the letters from my hand and immediately began reading them

- 10 minutes later -

I walked back over to the living to see Grayson, sitting there holding the letters firmly with tears falling from his eyes. My heart felt broken, Amber meant so much to Grayson, he loved her.

"Gray?" he looked at me as he cried some more

"She's gone Ethan" he cried

"I haven't got all the letters yet so this could all be a joke"

"Do you get another one today?"

"Yeah, I get one everyday at 2pm. There are 10 letters"

"Fuck" he let out a loud cry, "This can't be happening"

Just as I was about to hug him the doorbell rang, I looked up at Grayson who was staring at his phone, "Its 2pm" he said

I jumped off the couch and grabbed the mail off the front porch, Grayson sat there patiently watching me scramble through the mail to find the second letter

"Here" I said passing the letter to Grayson

Grayson's POV (it will be in his pov for the rest of the book from now on"

I looked at the letter, it was covered in glitter and was painted pink. Amber loved the colour pink, she'd come to school everyday wearing something pink. God, she was so beautiful. I ripped open the letter and instantly began reading it.

Dear Bailey,

So, the next person, Daniel Baranett. Daniel was a year older than me, I met him at the town fair last year. He was my boy bestfriend, We never became anything more than bestfriends. Considering Daniel went to a different school than me, he never knew about the situation between Tyler and I. There would be many many times where he would ask about my life at school and all those times I lied and pretended like everything was okay. See, thats the thing, Daniel told me everything, he confided in me and trusted me with everything he had. Me, on the other hand had a difficult time trusting him, it was nothing personal, I just have trust issues. It took a long time for me to confide in Daniel and God, was that the biggest mistake Ive ever did.

I had a rough day afterschool and all I did was cry when I got home. I had no one to talk to considering I never told anyone about the things that were happening, but then I decided to talk to Daniel. I told him I was upset and Ive been crying all day and night, he supported me in every way possible, trying to understand what a "beautiful" girl like me could be crying about. It took me sometime but I eventually worked up the nerve and confided in him with many things. First, I told him about my depression and how I take pills daily due to the sadness I withhold. Second, I mentioned to him about my addiction to self-harming. And third, my eating disorder. I even told him about the problems with Tyler. The saddest part about me telling him all this is he acted like he cared. He supported me and talked with me the entire night. What a fool I was. I walked into school the next morning and the first thing out of Tylers mouth was "YOU ATTENTION SEEKING DEPRESSED BITCH" So yeah, apparently Daniel is good friends with Tyler. From then on Daniel has been a total dick and treats me like shit. The saddest part about all of this is I still miss Daniel.. pathetic right?

I looked up at Ethan who was sitting there, waiting for me to say something.

"I'm going to fucking kill Tyler Sterling"
