Nova's pov

I'm sitting on this rock still just staring at the water. This is why I can't care about Jason. We always find something to fight about. He has too much anger in him. It's your fault too.
Maybe it is my fault. He's right. I let fear play too much into my life but I can't help it. I've been hurt to many times; I've been through stuff no one should ever have to go through.

I'm tossing rocks into the water when I hear someone talking. I look up across the water and see a man standing on the other side pacing back and forth. I drop the rocks in my hand on the ground and watch him closely. He seems very distraught about something. I stand up and walk a little closer and he starts running his hands through his hair.

"Excuse me. Are you okay?" I said and he looked over to me. When he saw me his eyes widened and then he started pacing again.

"SHIT" he yelled and I watched confused.

"what's your name?" I said trying to figure out what's going on.

"Just get away. GO" He yelled and I looked around to see if anyone was near.

"you can talk to me...i don't know you but maybe I can help with whatever.." I was saying but stopped when I saw him pull out a gun. Shit. What the hell is going on? He puts the gun up to his head and my heart instantly drops. "STOP" I yell putting my arms out. I see a big tree branch laying in the water and I run over and make my way across it to the other side.

"Don't come closer" he said.

"Let's just talk about this" I said continuing across the branch. When I make it to the other side I look up and see him pointing the gun to me.

"Don't come a step closer" He said and I put my hands up. My heart is racing so fast right now. I can't let this guy kill himself...or me. He turns away from me and starts putting the gun back up to himself. I take this opportunity and run up behind him grabbing his arm with the gun. He turns back to me and he's fighting to get the gun fully back.

"Don't do this" I said pleading.

"I can't do this anymore!" He yelled.

"Do what? Talk to me" I said. The gun falls out of our hands and lands on the ground. I look to him and he's totally freaking out right now. He's not in a good state of mind. This is so scary. I've never been in this situation. I'm so scared to say the wrong thing.

"I can't do this. IM GOING FUCKING CRAZY" he yelled. I could feel the anger. I take a step back from him and his eyes fill with rage and sadness. He goes to reach for the gun again but I grab his arm. He freaks out and then he pushes me back. I reach my arm out to try and grab onto him but I fall back and immediately feel the cold water engulf my body.  Everything just slows down.  Everything is happening in slow motion.

I fall underwater and come back up to the surface and take a deep breath.  I kick my feet and try to stay above the water but the current is strong and is pulling me down.  Panic immediately starts taking over my body.  It's getting harder to breathe by the minute.  I try kicking back to the surface but I keep getting pulled under.  I keep struggling but soon start to get weak.  Just stop fighting, Nova. This is it.  This is where I die.  I finally stop kicking and I start to loose consciousness.
I'm gonna die.
