The boy that saved me

Chapter 5

Amelia POV

I feel so sick. Ahhh!! I'm going to throw up again! I bent down over the toilet pouring out all my guts. I washed my mouth thoroughly, feeling very desperate to wash away the stench of the vomit. This is why I hate to vomit. I rest myself against the wall. Even from up here in my room, I could here my mum scolding my brother. I cupped my ears. I could not take it anymore. I do not wish and do not want to hear it anymore. I wish I could help my bro but I suffered worse than him. When I was younger, my mum used to pinch or slap me because I was not doing my work properly. Every single day, I cried myself to sleep. I took out the razor from the drawer. I swear I stopped but I have started to do it again. I know that it is wrong but I'm used to the pain. Although Lauren, Joey and Nick do not know bout this, I think they are starting to doubt me but I don't care. I cut myself. I felt the blood trickle down my hand. That felt good. I washed the cut and bandaged it. I just have had enough of my life. I have nothing to love for. Absolutely nothing.

Nick POV

Amelia has not been herself lately. Even though we still hang out together, she was not being her usual bubbly and funny self. I need to find out what happened but I'm scared that she does not want to open up to me. Maybe she wants to keep her problems to herself and continue to let her walls stand high. I still remember the day she sang to me to help me get over Mum's death. I need to do something. I mustered up all my courage and knocked on the door. A young boy opened the door. " Hey.." I have not finished talking when the boy interrupted. "Are you Nick??"he asked. I nodded my head and the young boy, presumably Amelia's younger brother, passed me an envelope and a guitar. "Please find her. She is not home. She told me to pass these to you. She have strict orders that no one is to find her but if you came, I was told to pass this to you and you would have to read whatever content in it. Please find her as soon as possible," he cried and hugged my legs. " I will find her. You wait here for me and be good boy," I ruffled his hair and dashed straight to my car. I opened the envelope only to see her handwriting. ----------------------------------------------

Dear Nick,

If you are holding this and reading it, please know that I will always love you. That might come as a shock but I have always loved you since I saw you. I might not be living here in this house anymore. I will be gone in the dark. Nick, no matter what you are doing never stop thinking of the memories we had. I need your help. Please save me before it's too late. Please Nick. I hope you will come before it's too late. Or I will be gone. I won't be saved. I will always love you. Think of the song that I sang to you then you would know where to find me. You will always live in my heart.

Love,

Amelia

Nick POV

This sounded like a suicide note. I better find her fast. According to the letter, it was written on 4/6. It was today. Gosh! How could I miss her leaving today?? Stupid! My engine roared and drove towards the place where she brought me that day. I saw traces of a pair of shoe as it had just finished raining just now. I followed the trail and came to a stop when I saw Amelia already walking towards the water. " AMELIA!! STOP WHATVEER YOU ARE DOING!!" I shouted with all my might. I sprinted towards her and dragged her off the water. She was sobbing uncontrollably.

Amelia POV

I heard my name being called but I convinced myself that it was my subconscious. I was wrong when the voice became clearer and I heard someone running. Just then, I inhaled a familiar scent. It was Nick. I heaved a sigh of relief. I never thought that he would come and save me this fast. "Are you okay?? Do you need anything??" Nick asked. I shook my head while soaking his t-shirt with my tears. He tried to comfort me but I did not fall for it. The thought of me attempting suicide was just too horrible." I'm so so sorry Nick," I mumbled just loud enough for him to here." It's fine. I have been in your shoes. Don't ever leave me," he replied earning a warm smile from me

Nick POV

"So in the letter you said that you love me. Is it true?" I asked while walking along the lake. Under the moonlight, I could see her blush like a tomato. I laughed silently. "Erm.... Do we really have to talk about this??" She asked. Being the evil person I am I nodded my head." Fine! Yes I do like you. Heck, I even love you" she admitted. She look so cute when she is annoyed." You know what, you should not be embarrassed. Why? Because I love you too," I admitted. I don't know where it came from but it definitely came from the bottom of my heart. I kissed her forehead knowing I could do it anytime now." Since we have confessed our feelings for each other, Erm... Amelia, will you be my girlfriend?" I asked with butterflies in y stomach. "Of course I will, Nick," she replied reassuringly. I'm so happy right now.

Amelia POV

MY GOSH!! He finally ask me to be his girlfriend!! He walked me up till my doorstep and handed me my guitar which he brought with him just now. "Stay safe A. I don't want you to hurt yourself. If you need anything, I'm right next door. Love you," Nick said and kissed my forehead. I nodded and hugged him tightly. I walked in my house and blushed. I wish I could take a picture and put it in a frame and stay like this.
