~ Vic's POV ~

After I dropped Paige of at her apartment, I walked back to car and realized that she had left her phone in my car. I sighed as I grabbed it and headed back toward her apartment. I knocked on the door but there was no answer, I knew she was in there so I knocked again, this time I heard muffled crying. I strained to hear what was happening then I heard a cabinet close and more crying. I decided to see what was going on so I opened the door and looked around, I didn't see Paige anywhere so I went to her room and opened to door. I gasped in horror as tears threatened to attack. I saw Paige on the floor with an empty pill bottle next to her and a note. I pulled out my phone and called an ambulance then held her in my arms, praying for her to be alright. When the paramedics got there, they took her and told me I couldn't go in the ambulance so I took it as a chance to read what was written on her note. It would break my heart, but I didn't care, I needed to know what was going on inside her head.

It read

I'm sorry to whoever finds this note, but if you were me, you'd do the same 'cause I can't take anymore, I'll draw the shades and close the door, everything's not alright and I would rather...

That's how life ends. In the middle of a sentence. I'm done with life, I can't handle the pain. I can't handle everything. The voices, they won't stop and I need them to, the only way to do that is through death. I know you'll all be over me the moment I'm gone, so why not go now?

Sally, Thank you for being like a sister to me. Thank you for giving me a place to stay, things to eat, and water to drink. I know you probably didn't want to, but you did and I thank you for that. I hope you and Mike get married someday, I know it's not really his or your style, but I've never seen two people be so perfect for each other.

Jordan, I'm sorry we didn't talk a whole lot, I mean, you were always at school or out with Tony and when you came home, I was crying and cutting in my room. I wanted to talk to you more, but I just didn't want to leave my room. Sometimes the bedroom walls become my only friends, but they were there from beginning to end.

Mike, you're probably one of the coolest guys I've ever met. I've wanted to come to you when I needed help, but you don't know what it's like to wake up in the middle of the night, scaring the thought of kissing razors. I'm sorry I let you down as a friend but I couldn't be around you because you were always with either Vic or Sally.

Tony, For a quiet guy, you were pretty awesome. You'll make it far in life, you and the band, just do smething for me? Get a Star Wars tattoo, that was the best thing we both liked. Make sure you don't hurt Jordan, she's always talking about how much she loves you, and it would ruin her forever if anything happened between you two, like even just a little fight. I wish I would know the answer to this question, but have you ever danced on the edge? I have, I don't like it. Please try to avoid it, for Jordan's sake.

Jaime, you kept me alive until this moment. You're my bestfriend and I thank you for that. You helped me through everything, when I didn't want to talk to Vic, you were there, I needed that. You never told Vic about the things I didn't want you to, and you helped me figure out why Vic kept telling me that he loved me. Thank you so much for helping me with my confusion, and pain. I needed it.
