Suicidal Rosie ✔️

"ROSIE ST. CLARIE GET YOUR FUCKING ASS DOWN HERE" her father yelled.
Rose aka Rosie not want to be disobedient listens to her drunk father. Downstairs waiting for her father to yell at her like he did with her mother until she passed away a year ago. Waiting patiently. "Now Rosie you have been such a good little princess lately I thought I would buy you a ticket to your favorite band" he says with his whiskey drenched breath.
Rosie takes a few steps towards her father, frightened what she would have to give up for them. Her father slides his hands up her thighs. Rose begins to cry as she turns away. She hated her father when he was like this. It wasn't unusual for him to do this, getting a little touchy. Sometimes he made her go all the way. He used to do this to her mother but she couldn't take it anymore to where it got to the point she hung herself.
Rosie's father stands up turning her head towards him.
"Let's continue this later tonight" he says stinking up the air around her with his breath.
Rose quivers as she backs away grabbing the ticket. As she leaves her father smacks her ass grinning with a little chuckle as he falls back onto his recliner with another drink in his hand.
Rose runs up the stairs with a ticket in hand. Throwing the ticket onto her bed she paces back and forth.
Thinking to herself.. it has been 6 years since the first time her father laid his hands on her. 5 years of her mother defending her. And a year of Misery unable to live any longer. Rose walks over to the bed picking up the invitation tour ticket. A tear streaming down her face. She has the perfect plan in mind. Putting on a nice outfit she races down the stairs out the door with only a few things. *at the concert*
It was a while before it started.  But luckily roses dad bought the best for his princess. Being 3 hours early standing out in the cold. It started to drizzle a little. The boys bus showed up 30 minutes later to prepare for the show. Everyone but jack slides inside to set up.
"Hey I'm jack" Jack says to Rose.
Rose stands there blankly unable to move. Rose pulls her ticket out.
"Oh wow of course you probably already knew my name" Jack says.
Rose hands Jack her ticket
"Um thanks but uh I guess you can come in... But the show doesn't start for another 2 hours" Jack says.
"That's okay I'll just watch you guys set up" Rose says.
Jack and Rose head inside.
"I didn't get your name" Jack says turning toward her.
"That's because I didn't tell you" Rose says as she continue to walk to the front row.
Jack catches up to her. Jack about to ask something gets called away to help get ready. Rose pulls out a piece of paper and pen. Beginning to write a letter.
The time goes by Rose finish writing as girls and guys start to show up. Stuffing it into her small bag Jack quickly rushes toward her.
"Hey here sorry I didn't give this to you earlier" He says as he slides a wristband on Roses wrist only to find scratch marks.
"Thanks" Rose said pulling her arm away.
It was a wristband for the after party,
The concert starts and ends so quickly. Like time flies with suicide on your mind. Rose slowly walks toward the after party room where all the boys are at A few girls give her a weird look as if she wasn't good enough. A small tear forms and Jack notices. Jack rushes to her. "Hey hey hey.. what's wrong" Jack says.
Rose wipes the tear away..
"Nothing um nothing" Rose says knowing she shouldn't say anything.
Jack doesn't believe her.
Jack opens his arms to hug Rose. Rose flinches thinking she was going to be hit or felt up but it was just her silly imagination. Jack pulls Rose into a hug.
A nice long hug. Took up the whole time. Jack not wanting to let go because of his gut feeling. But he had to. He pulls away about to leave
"Wait" Rose says
Jack gazes into Roses eyes as she hands him a piece of paper
"Read it when I leave" Rose says
"Can I know your name?" Jack asks
"It's Rosie St. Claire..Call me Rose " Rose says
Tears bubbling up in Roses eyes. She tried to say help me but she couldn't speak only her mouth could move. Choked up on her own words. Rose leaves leaving Jack clueless.
Jack turns on the heal of his feet walking toward the boys.
"Hey who was that" Jonah says
"Rosie St. Claire..Rose for short" Jack says
"She gave you a letter?" Corbyn says stating the obvious
"Read it out loud" Zach says
"Yeah" Daniel says
Jack reads a little before reading out loud. The first three words he read were "I hate love" He saw everything. He saw the look in Roses eye. "But in a way it's alright cause where born to die" jacks read aloud. "I hate the way my dad could do everything as he please" Jacks says continuing catching  all the boys attention.
"All the memories we made start to fade to black, This is it though I'm runnin' out of time to write but I'm goin cause I felt the time was right" Jack begins to choke on a few words while reading it out loud to everyone. "And you should know that my very last thought was you" Jack says.
"When she coming home? Been waiting forever, the day that never comes cause he pushed her till the end, mama come back to me" Jack says unable to continue.
Jonah offers to read it but Jack denies saying he can do it.
" I can't smile, so much ache in my heart, I can literally feel it breakin' apart. No sleep but plenty missed nothing to fill the void of emptiness except for the cold touch of my fathers hands as they ride up my skirt" Jack says as he takes a seat in the ground.
"Omg" Corbyn couldn't keep it in knowing that she has been raped by her father.
" just a lost child, now a lost soul, all because of my heart, it turned cold" Jack continues ignoring Corbyns comment.
"What a story, this is where the chapter ends, this is what I do, due to my lack of friends." Jack says as he breaks down a little more.
"Is that why she was extremely early?" Zach questions.
"Wondering why this happens to me, grateful for the time me and you spent but my dear jack my life must come to an end, sincerely Rosie St. Claire" Jack finishes saying.
Everyone speechless not knowing what to say.
"We have to find her" Jack says standing up.
"What, what about our show tomorrow" Daniel says.
"Yeah for all we know it's just a trick" Jonah says.
"Yeah come on dude I'm supposed to see Christina before the show" Corbyn chirps in.
And then there is Zach who just sits in silent.
"Go without me but you guys did not see her, see her scratches or hug her and realize how many bruises she has. I am going to find her and save her life even if it means missing a show" Jack says sternly.
Jack walks out not knowing much about Rosie except for her name and the horrible stuff her father has done to her.
"JACK WHERE ARE YOU GOING" Jack can hear the rest of the boys yelling at him as they try to catch up to Jack.
The boys bus pulls up and the driver opens the door.
"Get In we found where her house is" the guy says.
Jack climbs in and so does the rest of the boys.
"Jack this, this is insane" Zach blurts our.
"It's better then doing nothing"
*at home*
Rosie makes it home. With her drunk father lying there until he hears the front door click shut.
"Hoped you liked the show princess" he mutters
Rose walks over to him tears streaming down her face.
He gets up as he takes Roses hand dragging her to the bed room. All the horrible stuff anyone could imagine, happened. Satisfying his needs Rose crawls into a corner as her father gets up to grab a beer and watch the game. The packers are playing
Rose grabs a pillow off the bed and screams into it
"AHHHHHH "she repeats it a few more times
She brings herself to her feet. Knees weak. She tries to walk but it's like pins and knives where being chucked at her. She makes it outside into the night as sharp wind hits her face. She walks to the back to where the train tracks lay in her backyard. Climbing up the small hill there she lays on the tracks waiting for the 8:00 train to hit her.
"This is her house" the bus driver says as he opens the bus door letting the boys out. Jack knocks on the door.
Roses father makes a ruckus as he opens the front door.
"Excuse me sir is Rosie St. Claire here" Jack asks politely.
At that moment Jack realized he regretted asking because BAM he was slapped right in the face. A police vehicle was right around the corner when it happened. The bus driver must have called them. The police lady arrests the father as Jack and the boys enter the house to look for Rosie.
"HURRY"Jack yells as everyone is searching everywhere until he hears a train coming.
Jack rushes outside to find Rose on the tracks. He rushes to her side in time to get her off the tracks right as the trains comes.
Rose cries out"no no I should be dead"
Jack holds her "everything is okay everything will be okay you're safe now".
