I Depend On You ~Zach Herron~

Jesse's P. O. V. (WHAT?!?)

"Just do it!" The voice in my head screamed at me. I stabbed the knife into her side before jumping through the glass window. I didn't stop running. I had looked back for a split second, and ran straight into a police officer.

"Why did you fucking do this!? You're a fucking idiot with no fucking control. You love Iris and you could've just killed her! You're so stupid, stupid, stupid! Look what you've done! You got caught and now you're going to jail!" I shook my head trying to make the voices stop.

I couldn't control myself sometimes. Sometimes I did stupid things that I know I shouldn't do. The voice was right. I have no self control. I act on instinct and I have anger problems which makes it worse. I know that I need to fix myself, but I need help.

I cried on the bench in the cell that I was thrown in. I wish I hadn't have done that. I wish I could go apologize and everything would go back to the way it was.

I wish I had stabbed Zach instead of Iris. That bastard stole my girl from me. I'm gonna kill him. I'm glad that I knocked him out, he deserved that. He deserved everything I did to him and Iris. He deserves to see Iris in all this pain.

I'm gonna get out of here. I need to apologize to Iris, and then do something to Zach. He's such a bastard.

"Hey! Knock it off!" I jumped out of my thoughts and realized I had been repeatedly punching the walls. My knuckles stung and I looked to see them covered in blood.

Zach's P. O. V.

"You ready to go home?" I asked.

"Yes but no. I want to go home, but when I do I know you'll have to leave again," she said pouting.

"I know, I'm sorry baby. I wish I could just stop everything and take care of you, but it's not up to me."

"I know. I'm being selfish. You're living your dream and I'm holding you back. I'm sorry." I ran to her and pulled her into a hug.

"You're not holding me back from my dream." I held her chin making her look at me. "You are my dream."

Iris's P. O. V.

I melted as he said that and quickly connected our lips. I reached to put my hands on his cheeks, but gasped in pain.

"What? Are you okay?" I looked down and saw the stitches under my left arm.

"I forgot about those." I sighed.

"We'll just have to be careful," he told me. He kissed my forehead and wrapped his arm around me as we walked out.

Iris's P. O. V.

"I don't want to leave you," Zach whined putting both arms around my waist.

"Me neither, but you have to," I said wrapping my arms around his waist too, since I couldn't bring my arms up without hurting myself.

"I'll miss you."

"I'll miss you, too. It'll only be six days until you're back."

"But that's six days too long without you." I internally screamed at his comment.

"I love you," I said smiling widely.

"I love you, too." He leaned down and kissed my lips. My lips melted into his as we pulled each other closer.

"Um, I hate to break this up but Zach we have to leave," Jonah said awkwardly standing in the doorway.

Zach pulled away and groaned.
