*Tony's POV*
After receiving the text from Mrs Baker I drove up to her house. She greeted me as I got out of my car and hugged her.
"Hey Tony, I wanted to ask you some more questions about Hannah" Mrs Baker said softly.
I went with her into the house.

*Clay's POV*
I was riding home when I saw Tony go into Hannah's house with Mrs Baker. Something had to be going on there. I stood outside for 5 minuets but Tony didn't come back out. I decided to go home. When I got home I lay on my bed and went to sleep.
____________________________________
My alarm went for school.
"Urgh"
I hit the stop button and got up.
I got changed and went downstairs to my mum and dad.
"Morning honey, want to join us for breakfast?" She asked.
"No thanks mum I'm going to head straight to school."
I picked up an already buttered piece of  toast from my dads plate. He gave me a confused look.
"Oh, ok then Clay see you later." My mum said.
I smiled at her as I left the house.
I got on my bike and rode to school.
When I got there I put my things in my locker and saw Tony.
"Hey Tony what was all that about last night?"
"I don't know what you mean Clay" he said acting dumb.
"With Mrs Baker at Hannah's you where hugging her."
The bell rang for class.
"Gotta go" Tony said pointing at the bell.
I watched him leave and noticed Megan in the corridor looking at me. I ignored her and followed Tony. I was in his next class and we both sat next to each other at the back.
"Good Morning everyone" Miss O Neil said.
"Tony" I whispered.
"What Clay?" He said getting agitated.
"Tell me what you where doing at Hannah's house last night."
Tony looked a sorry look at me.
"Just sorting a few things out, you don't need to worry Clay." He said.
I shook my head showing I was annoyed.
"Miss I need to leave , I don't feel so good."
"Ok Clay, Hope you feel better soon." My maths teacher said.
I picked up my bag and gave one last look at Tony.
When I got out onto the corridor I could hear a tearing sound. I looked around and Saw Alex ripping posters off of the walls. I walked up to him.
"Alex?"
"Go back to class Clay" he said sighing at me.
"Why would you-
-It's not what you think Clay." Alex interrupted me.
"What are you doing then?"
"Im Cleaning up" he said scrunching the posters about suicide up.
I gave him a shocked look.
"What they think these are gonna save someones life?" He asked me rhetorically.
"Alex..."
"Suicide is not an option" Alex was being sarcastic now.
I shook my head slowly.
"You know what, Clearly it is an option" he said.
"They are there to help people Alex"
"To help? Why don't they put posters up saying don't be a f*cking d*ck to people?"
I looked at him and then looked at my shoes.
"Why don't we put up that poster? Its the truth" he said angrily.
"Yeah I know that would be cool with me, I try not to be a dick."
"Yeah we all try." Alex said after he calmed down.
I watched him stuff the ripped up posters into a bin and went back to class.
Soon enough the bell went.

*Megan's POV*
I found Tony and went and sat with him at our usual table to eat lunch.
I sighed.
"What's up?" He asked me.
"High school sucks."
"Yeah, especially this one." Tony replied taking a sip from his apple juice.
"I wish we could just skip it, or just not have to go to school."
"But then I would of never met you" he said smiling at me.
I pushed him playfully.
"Well what are you gonna do when you leave?" He asked me.
"You know go to College maybe in New York."
"That's where Hannah wanted to go." He said looking at me with puppy dog eyes.
"Im sorry"
"No it's ok" Tony said.
"But at least you won't get judged as much as you will here."
I smiled a weak smile at Tony.
"True" he said shrugging his shoulders.
I held his hand.
"But you're right for now I just want to stay here with you."
Tony kissed me.
"Come on we've got Art in a few minutes lets go early." Tony suggested to me.
I grabbed my backpack and walked out of the canteen holding his hand.
We both stopped as we saw Mrs Baker approach a familiar girl.
It was the girl that I had a weird encounter with in the girls toilets.
"Courtney Crimson?" I asked Tony still learning who everyone was.
"Mhmm" he said nodding his head at me.
We could hear Mrs Baker and her talking.
"All these people where Hannah's friends?" Mrs Baker asked.
Courtney nodded her head.
"She has so many friends, we all miss her so much." Courtney said sounding a bit jolly.
"Anyone who knew Hanna would know she didn't like roses, she thought they where too cliche". Mrs Baker said walking towards Tony.
"Im gonna have to go and speak to Miss Baker, I want to support her." Tony told me.
"Ok"
He hugged me.
"I love you" he said.
"I love you too."
With that He walked off.
Alex Standall came up from behind and stood next to me. 
"Where are you two supposed to be?" Mr Porter asked us.
I was too busy listening to Courtney and Mrs Baker I hadn't even heard the bell go for lesson.
I opened my mouth to answer but was interrupted by Alex.
"Thats a heavy question, thats like existential." He said walking away.
Mr porter pulled a face and went back into his office.
"Come on do you wanna walk with me?" Alex asked me.
"Umm, yeah, ok"
