Summer's POV:

I woke up in a hospital. I look around and see Jack. "Summer?" he said and I noticed his eyes are all red and puffy. "Jack." I say with a small smile forming on my face. "Oh thank god you didn't loose your memory," he says with a little smirk. "Why would you try something like this? Killing yourself? You know I couldn't live without you!"

That's when it all hit me again, I looked down at my wrists. They were all stitched up. And, I remembered Jack cheated on me. With Ansley. I cringed at the thought, and decided to speak up.

"Maybe because you cheated on me. I feel worthless enough Jack! Nobody ever knew I was depressed, but guess what? I was. And you totally made it worse." I kinda regret saying a little of that. I'm putting this all on him when I was already depressed. But he was the main part of it.

"I-I'm sorry.." We both stop talking when my phone rings. It's my mom. "Mom I'm so sorry, I can explai-" "No sweetie, it's not about that. Turn on the news.. I don't think I can tell you." Oh no. I could tell she was crying. She hung up. I turned on the news and was dumbfounded. I broke down in tears. That's when Jack noticed. He shot up and read it again. "NO NOT MY BEST FRIEND!!!!" Jack said as he leaned against a wall crying. "Not my best friend..." He says again, but he whispers this time.

I turn the tv up, so I can hear everything they are saying.
"Teen, Jack Johnson, died brutally in a car accident. Here is his mother speaking." I cried just thinking about it. Johnson was like a brother to me. But I wiped my tears and tried to listen to his mom.

"Jack, if only I was in that car. Or I didn't let you go, but Summer was your best friend... I love you and miss you Jack, I'll see you soon."

I cried even more at his mom's words. I felt like it was my fault. Jack was still laying on the floor crying. I managed to get up off the bed and sit on the floor with him. I didn't say anything. I didn't try to calm him down. I let him get all his emotions out, and I cried with him. "Summer... why him? Why not me?" "Jack.. Please. If I never tried to kill myself he wouldn't of died." I said wiping my tears away. "You're right!" Jack says as he storms out of the room.

I got on my knees and intertwined my fingers together and started praying.

"Jack, I hope you have fun in heaven, please be safe and keep us safe. I love you so much. You were the brother I never had. Amen." I got up and sat back down on the bed, and started crying again.


A/N: This was really emotional for me to write. I almost started crying to be honest. But wait till the next chapter! You'll be surprised.
