My hands shook as I gripped the paper in my sweaty palms. I slowly unfolded it, still shaking. Moments like these really do not need my anxiety on top of it. The last fold I quickly unturned it and I looked away quickly. My eyes slowly met the top of the paper reading:

"Dear Jeni,

You proved to me that everyone is the same, I'm never going to find love. No one will ever like me, I'm done for. But thank you for an interesting night. I guess the only way to have you is to make you fall in love with me, I'm sorry I couldn't make that happen. Btw you're not a bad kisser yourself. Good luck with your friend, you'll need it."

As I read the last three words, I fall to the ground on my knees. I toss the note aside and burry my head into my leather jacket sleeves. It takes me a moment to realize I just met this amazing person and already I had made her want to end her existence. She was so fucking perfect though, every little detail. This happened to be the first time I had craved so much to have someone's lips on mine. That's when I realize my lip had been bleeding, I had been biting it while reading the letter. I suck on my bottom lip until the sensation of bloods leaves me mouth. Than I try to remember what exactly her lips had tasted like. I pick up her drink that she had left on my nightstand and take a sip, so I can have the last sensation of her lips on mine.

I know she is out there somewhere, she can't end it so quickly unless she had something on her such as a gun. That's when I heard it, a gun shot followed by what sounds like a million screams. I throw open my door and run downstairs and peak my head through a circle crowd. That's when everything changed, there lay a lifeless body. As I expected it to be Karry's lifeless body there. There lay Jared lifeless in the middle of the living room, and the person leaning over him with the weapon in her hand happened to be Karry.
