I Tried. Believe Me

Picture of 'mystery' boy on the side (Mitchell Musso, I'm aware he doesn't have green eyes but this is what I want the boy to roughly look like)

Skylars pov:

" I Tried. Believe Me.

Dad I really did try,

They just don't like me,

They never like me,

It's always the same,

Mum gets a new job,

I get bullied,

We move,

I never make friends,

I'm always alone,

She hates me dad,

I don't know what to do anymore,

I guess this is goodbye for the last time,

I love you daddy"

I walked away from my dads grave with tears streaming down my face, he was buried in a graveyard behind a church in Baltimore, I always drove down here on the anniversary of his death and stayed at his grave, talking to him for hours, I spent a couple of days at my nans house before taking the drive back to California where me, my mum and my brother Tom now lived with our stepdad Michael and my stepbrother Jacob, this year was different, I'd decided earlier on that I'd wanted to spend quality time with my nan and stay with her for the full 3 months (just imagine) of summer vacation, being 18 and finishing school, my mum couldn't exactly stop me, Tom wanted to come with me but I of course said no, I don't need him doing my head in the whole time he stays with us, truth is, the time with my nan is personal to me because she was my dads mother, I say Tom is my brother, I should probably explain, Tom is my half brother, my mum got really drunk and depressed about a month after my father died and had a one night stand, which of course resulted in Tom, that is why I don't like Tom being with me when I come here, Baltimore is special to me because it's the place MY dad is buried and the place MY nan is.

Anyway where was i?, Oh right, I was walking back from my dads grave ,you see that is what I intended to be the last time I visited his grave, I intended to take my life, that's where I was walking after exiting the graveyard, to the nearest bridge, I had nothing left to live for, my mum shunned me and often left me to fend for myself, my dad was murdered before my very eyes, my stepdad and his son hate me and so does Tom, Jacob and his so called friends bully me day in day out at school physically, verbally and mentally, often leaving me to have breakdowns in the boys toilets and result to self harm and starving myself, this was me saying I've had enough, the world has thrown to much at me, I didn't think I'd ever be fixed again, I stood on the ledge of the bridge only hanging onto the railings about to jump, when...

"STOP, I DON'T KNOW WHO YOU ARE, I DONT KNOW WHAT YOUR SITUATION IS, BUT I CARE, PLEASE DON'T JUMP!!"

I turned around slowly and faced the most gorgeous man I've ever laid eyes on, yes I'm gay, problem?, his bright green eyes contrasted perfectly with his black hair, it seemed to have a green streak in it, he was tall and skinny but with obvious muscle, my hand suddenly slipped and I was left hanging onto the railing by one hand which was slowly slipping as well, the mysterious boy immediately ran over to me and helped me over the railings, I blushed as our hands connected

He started speaking...

"Hi, well this is on odd circumstances but my name is.....
