Me and Matt decide to go upstairs."Hey Alex what do you want to do today?" He says

"Umm I don't know, we could hang out with taylor?" I insist

"Yeah that sounds cool, you text him" he says with his perfect smile

I pull out my phone and text taylor

To: T dawg💘😂

Hey taylor do you want to hangout with me and Matt today

From: T dawg💘😂

Yeah I'll be over in 10 xx

MATT'S POV

I see her smile at her phone. Taylor must have said yes. She's so perfect I could look at her all day. The way her hair curves at the bottom. The way she's not the average girl with a thigh gap. I don't really see why she wants one. She's perfect without it. I love the ways she's shorter than me so she has to go on her tippie toes to hug me or kiss my cheek. But her smile. I could go on and on about it. It lights the world up.

"Take a picture, it'll last longer" she snaps

"You know what, I will" I say taking my phone out and quickly take a picture

"Matthew Lee Espinosa delete that shit right now I look like shit" she tries to hold back her laugh trying to be serious

I grab my phone and set it as my wallpaper and post it everywhere with the caption "Best fwend 💘😂"

I see her get the alert. She smiles once again. Oh god she's perfect. I go up to her and do what neither of us expected. I pull my lips on top of hers. "Oh my god Alex I'm sorry"

Taylor's POV

"Hi Taylor, Alex and Matt are upstairs" Alex's mom says

"Thank you Gabby" i say

As I walk up the stairs I hear Matt apologizing to Alex about something

"It's okay I kind of liked it" she says. I open the door and find Alex kissing Matt.

"Woah, okay I'll just come back later" I say laughing

"Oh my God, taylor haven't you heard of knocking" she says with her face turning super red

"Yeah, but I just don't like too" she turns to me and smacks my arm.

"So what have you guys done today" I say. I see Matt and Alex turn to Eachother

"Spill it" I know something's up

Alex's POV

"Spill it" Taylor says. I immediately feel tears running down my cheek. Taylor and Matt come and comfort me

"Well taylor today, umm Alex tried to leave us" he explained with tears in his eyes once again.

"As In" Taylor questioned

"Suicide" Matt whispers to taylor

"Oh my god Alex I'm so sorry I should've been there for you. It's all my fault I should've left Dillon that day and came over here" Taylor says "promise me you'll stay with us forever"

"I promise" I manage to say

Him and Matt stand up. They head toward the bathroom I see them come back with a box. Looks like all my blades that I've hid.

"No, no what are you doing"

I shout

"It's for the best baby girl"

Taylor says. He turns to the window and throws them out. Landing in the trash can.

"I needed those. What am i supposed to do now" I say with tears coming out of my eyes

"Alex. In order for things to get better we have to do this" Matt says

I nod. I understand it's for the best

Matts POV

"Alex I'm gonna need you to stay strong okay. Now let's go and get our minds off this." I say

"Beach?" Taylor says while kissing Alex's forehead. I get a little jealous but I know he doesn't like her.

" yeah that's fine" she says. I pack her bag with her baiting suit and towel. With sunscreen and stuff.

We walk into Taylor's truck

"To the beach" Alex says in a British accent.

When we get there. I carry her on my back until we get to the end of the sand. She looks like she was having such a good time. She didn't even notice she was showing her cuts until

"Oh my god look she's such an attention seeker" Amanda says pointing to Alex's thighs and hips

"Alex, seriously just stop. You're basically screaming 'I need attention' a familiar voice says. I see it's her ex boyfriend Josh

"Josh, Amanda you need to leave" Taylor says

"And who's gonna make me" he quickly responds

"I am" I say to him

"Oh yeah. Mr. Best friend of a psychopath" i realized what he had just said. That's it. I feel my fist against his jaw.

"No one makes fun of my Alex except for me and taylor" I spat. Trying to hold back my chuckle

"I thought you said you liked ME and only ME" said Amanda

"I thought I did until I realized you were a complete bitch. Who insults beautiful people". I look at Alex who is blushing

I suddenly walk up to Alex and kiss her right then and their not caring who sees.

"You think I'm beautiful"

She says quietly

"You three disgust me" Amanda says taking josh hand In hand to the parking lot

"Always have, always will"

I say after she's gone.

"Just please don't ever try to leave me"

"Don't leave"
