Andy's P.O.V

I slowly opened my eyes hearing the sound of a heart monitor and the white walls instantly giving me a headache

I looked around me and looked down at my wrist seeing gauze wrapped around it

Someone knocked on my door so I looked and saw Erin with teary eyes as she ran over to me gave me a hug

"Oh Andy" she sobbed

"Erin.." I was at loss for words

"W-why?"

"Did you read your note?"

"Yea and I'm so sorry I was never there for you"

"D-did you find me?" I asked nervously

"No, I think Tony did"

I pulled away from her and looked passed the red and puffy eyes

"What?"

"Yea, I don't really know what happened but I beat up Sabrina real good" she giggled

I giggled as well and looked at her fists seeing them already bruising and puffy

"Thank you, Erin" I smiled at her

"She deserved it, Andy"

"Completely right"

I pushed over a bit and Erin laid down beside me and faced toward me as we stared at each other

"Whilst I was, doing that. I considered giving the school one more try, for you. When I was in the middle of it I started to rethink life, I can't leave you, or my brother, or my papa like this. So I didn't take the pills hoping one of you would help me" I kinda whispered to her

"One of us?"

"You or Tony, that's why I asked if you found me"

"Looks like Tony did"

"I'm wondering if I should give him a second chance"

"I read his note" she looked down "I think you should do it, maybe he's not what he seems like"

"Yea, but I can't just forgive him"

"Baby steps, Andy. I heard your tutoring him, start from there"

"W-what? H-h-ho-" "you don't think I saw him come to your house the time I left?"

My cheeks turned a light pink and she grabbed them

"Awee, my little Andy is blushingggg" she giggled

I pushed her hand away from my face giggling as well

she turned the other way and I wrapped my arm around her waist

"Promise me you won't do anything like this again?"

"I can't promi-" "promise me, Andy. Promise me that you'll never do something like this again"

"I-I ca- I promise, Erin"

I felt her smile and we both dosed off.
