**TRIGGER WARNING**
If you are upset by suicide, this chapter may not be best fitting for you. I was told by a reader that I should let you guys know and I completely agree. Sorry about the inconvenience.

/Reese's POV/

"-gets hit by car on a motorcycle. Said to be none other then the infamous-"

Nope.

"-The past juvenile delinquent, Aur-"

No.

"A brutal crash has taken place on the East bound ramp off of Washington Avenue this evening when-"

Are you kidding me? I'm trying to watch some god damn TV and all that's on is this stupid story about some reckless drivers.

"Aura Price."

What? My head whipped up from my phone in one of my hands. Why is she on the news now?

"The child of the deceased Lana and Steven Price has been involved in a critical automotive wreak. She had survived the crash but is now being held in the Charter Hill Hospital where I'm told she is currently in the ICU getting surge-"

I can't listen to this anymore. I need to get to the hospital now. I rushed outside to my car and started it before racing to the hospital and weaving through cars. I pulled into the parking lot and ran to the check-in area.

"Aura Price! Aura Price, where is she? " I asked frantically to the woman who seemed to be bored out of her mind.

"What is your relation to the patient?" She said flatly.

"Um uhhhh.... boyfriend! Boyfriend. I'm her boyfriend. Now tell me what's going on! Please." I tried to calm myself down but obviously it's not working.

"Wow.... Two guys? Okay....... I mean, well, she's in the Intensive Care Unit getting surgery but I'll call to see more details of the situation for you, okay?" She said after typing something in her computer, and looking up at me with her face just oozing pity.

"O-okay. B-but what do you mean two guys?" I asked a little bewildered although she only told me what I knew.

"Well there is another boy a little younger than you it seems, that claimed to be Ms. Price's boyfriend." She didn't make eye contact with me probably afraid of my reaction of hearing she's with someone else too.

"Did you happen to catch his name?" I asked nonchalantly already knowing who to expect.

"I-uh. Yeah, Alex or something like that....."

"Fücking amazing." I muttered clearly annoyed. I looked up to see the woman hanging up her the phone.

"Well Ms. Price doesn't seem to be doing very well. I'm told that she only has a slim chance of making it through the surgery and that the probability of her getting out of the surgery not in a coma is practically none. I'm so sorry." As more and more words were leaving her mouth the more and more my brain was shutting down. I can't stand this, I couldn't stand being in a world without Aura. I muttered a quick thanks that she may not have heard whilst walking out of the building back into my car to go back home and make some bad decisions.

I drove unbearably slow toward my flat. When I pulled up to get out of the car a split second of realization came to me as I noticed what my plans were really to do. I shook my head as if to clear the doubting thoughts from my head and continued to walk into my building.

I grabbed a bunch of paper out of my printer and started writing. Writing to practically everyone I've interacted with throughout my life. When I was done with each letter, I'd fold the paper closed and write who it was to on the back.

I grabbed one of my guns out of my closet from a hole I cut out of the floor and brought myself into my bathroom.

I held the gun in my mouth and pulled the trigger.

Authors note

Yes, I know I'm a bïtch for leaving you guys on two cliff-hangers in a row but in my defense, I'd say these are some pretty damn good chapters. Let me know your thoughts and I'm not sure when I'll be updating next but it's more than likely going to be during the month of August.
