Daniels POV
The dreadful weekend was over and it was time to go back to school. Alana was still recovering so I was in charge of getting all her work and making sure her teachers were all up to date on the situation.
As I walked throughout the campus doors all eyes turned to me, burning into me. I mean it's not like I wasn't used to it but this intense? It was a little freaky. Making my way to my locker I see Jack at his."Hey dude." I spoke to him. He gave me a sympathetic facial expression, I arched my right eyebrow.
"Are you sure you're okay to be here? It sounds a bit brutal" I was about to start talking when Jack added, "and I don't mean her attempting suicide I mean what people are saying."
Just about that time the girl who hit on me the first day walked up to me. Her high pitched voice pinching my ears.
"So Daniel, I heard about you freak friend trying to kill herself. She's such a failure she even failed at the one thing I thought she'd be good at." She squeaked and walked away, as she got further the sound of her heals clicking faded.
I was beyond pissed. How can she say such things about Alana? She's a wonderful and just beautiful person. That bitch will pay along with everything that bring her joy in life. Alana doesn't deserve it, but she-"Yo dude... you good?" Jack looked concerned and was eyeing my fists. I unclenched them revealing nail marks oosing blood.
"Shit." I muttered as I began to walk to first period.

Alana's POV
So I was still in the hospital. Ughh. I mean come on yeah yeah suicidal yeah yeah bleeding yeah yeah. But honestly I just wanna go home. I started humming "something different" Daniel and Zach's part to be exact.
Look at us, we could paint the perfect picture. About us, from head to toe I'll fit ya. They follow us, yeah we make the biggest fiction. They believe it so I guess it much be real.
Just as I was about to continue I heard a knock on the door. In walked Jack.
"Hey there beautiful. Daniel had to run a few places but he should be here soon" he spoke softly and held his hand behind him.
Jack was like my big brother. He was always there when I needed him and he was extremely easy to talk to. Oh and he gave great hugs man and I mean their amazballs.
"How are you holding up?" He walked over to the side of the hospital bed; his hand was still behind his back."I'm greatttt," I rolled my eyes "but what's behind your back?" I raised an eyebrow.
"Okay okay fine. I was thinking since you may be here for a few days that you may need something to keep you company. So I got you a teddy bear!" He reveled a fluffy teddy bear and it had a shirt on with, get this, Jack's face!
I started dying with laughter. My stomach hurt from laughing. Jack looked proud. He stood there in triumph because of my laugh attack."Ah Jack you're great man." I smiled up at him.
"Yes I know this.. man" he said mocking my word choice.
We watched TV for about 20 minutes before the nurse walked in."It's time to change your bandages sweetie" she wheeled in a table with bandages and antibiotics on it.
Jack started to get up to leave when I said:
"No, Jack please stay.." I croaked a lump already formed in my throat. He hesitatingly sat back down. The nurse started to unwrap the bloodied bandages. Tears started running down my face and Jack rested a hand on my thigh.
Now both arms were unwrapped and completely bare. Open wounds were visible in every direction there was; over lapping and deep, still oosing blood even after 30+ hours. Old scars peeked through the new cuts. God my arms were disgusting, I couldn't look anymore so I turned my attention to Jack.
Jack was staring at my arms and it was obvious he was choking back tears. He saw me looking a forced a smile. God that damn smile was gorgeous even when it was forced.
The nurse finally finished rewrapping my arms after what felt like an eternity. Jack looked me in the eyes and spoke softly."Alana... why? I know that everything at school and home is rough but I'm here for you and you knew that..." He looked so sad and I just broke down in tears. Jack crawled in bed with me and held me in his arms. His embrace was so warm and calming.
I looked up at him and gazed into those beautiful brown eyes. Jack looked at me and began to lean in. The space between us was closing. Our lips connected and sparks were everywhere.
But this was so wrong. What about Daniel? I pulled away and was starring in shock; Jack had the same expression on his face. He got out of bed and sat on the chair. We just sat in silence for about a minute until unsuspecting Daniel walked in."Hey guys! I'm sorry I'm late Alana..." He trailed off and I just faked a smile. Happy and crushed all at the same time. Not a feeling I want to revisit.
