Johnny took me home early. He could tell I wasn't in the right mindset to hang out with anyone.

The car ride was silent so far until he spoke.

"Kenz. Are you okay?"

I nodded my head. "I'll be okay.." I lied. I really just felt like giving up at this point. I didn't see a reason in living anymore. This whole twenty days thing didn't mean much to me anymore.

"Are you sure?" He asked.

"Johnny I'm fucking fine okay?! Gosh!" I lashed out. I could see him jump in my peripheral vision.

Everything was silent again.

Johnny pulled up in front of my house and stopped, saying nothing.

I got out of the car and slammed the door. I was furious.

"You know what?!" I yelled.

He got out of the car. "Stop yelling, seriously.." he said trying to catch his breath.

"You should've never came into my life. The twenty days bullshit? Really Johnny? Did you think you spending money on me and taking me places could save my life!?" I screamed.

"I was trying to help you!" He yelled back.

"You didn't help me Johnny. You made everything worse!" I argued.

"What are you even saying? I did so much for you and you can't even see that?" He said softly.

"Fuck this." He said before turning around.

A tear slipped out of my eye. Was I wrong for going off on Johnny?

Yes.

Did I have my reasons?

I don't know..
+
"Where are you going?" I said biting my lip.

"I'm going home Kenzie. I tried to help you get your shit together. I tried to make you happy and realize that life isn't something you need to give up on, and if you don't appreciate that then.. I don't need to see you anymore."

He walked back to his car.

I stood there and watched his car start as he drove away.

I fell to the ground and started to cry. I lost the only person that really cared about me. I let my anger get to me and now he's out of my life.
+
I walked inside and slammed the door.

"What was all of that yelling?" Maddie asked coming from around the corner.

"Nothing." I said running upstairs to my room.
I slammed the door and jumped on my bed crying harder.

I went to my desk and threw everything off of the table. I grabbed the picture Johnny took of me the night we went to the arcade and ripped it to pieces.

"I cant do this anymore. I cant wait eighteen more days. This is too much for me, I don't deserve this life." I thought to myself.
+
I put on my black hoodie, my black shoes and black leggings.

I waited until everyone's light had turned off. I tip toed downstairs and looked at the time. "Eleven o' clock.. almost midnight." I said before walking out the door.

The cold wind and it's whispers flowed through my fly aways of brown hair. I put my hands in my pocket and walked towards our neighborhood bridge.
+
A man looked at me. "Are you lost?" I shook my head. "N-no just looking for my friend, she's here."

He looked at me weird, "Are you okay? You look like you've been crying. What are you up to?"

"Can you fuck off?" I said before running past him.

"Jesus." I heard him mumble before I got further away.
+
I climbed up the flights of stairs. Reaching the last step I took a breath looking over the beautiful buildings that took place.

I looked up at the pitch black sky.

"I'm sorry dad. I know you didn't want things to end this way. I know you'll be disappointed in me. But I hope you know, I love you, and I'm sorry..." I didn't say much.
+
I closed my eyes as I walked closer to the edge listening to the cold wind take over the warmth of my ears.
+
Johnny's POV.

I continued driving around not knowing where to stop. I just needed to get my mind off of something even if it meant not thinking about Mackenzie.

She completely blew me off, I just wanted to help her.

I saw a bridge that took over beautiful buildings. "Perfect." I smiled to myself. I just needed a pretty view to look at before I drove back home.
+
I walked up the flights of stairs ready to see the view.

Then I saw the last thing a human would ever want to see.
+
Mackenzie's POV.
"Hello?" A voice says. It sounded exactly like Johnny's but how would he even know I was here?

I turned around slowly.

His eyes widened when they focused on my face. I hurried trying to run off. He ran over to me pulling me back from the edge.
NOO! STOP!" He yelled.

I fell back onto the ground with his arms wrapped around me, he was breathing extremely hard and I felt his heart beat like it was out of his chest.

"Kenzie, I don't care what happened tonight.. I told you not to give up." He said still holding me.

"Johnny, I'm sorry." I started to cry.

"Kenzie." He said grabbing my face and pulling me in close. My lips still dry compared to his soft ones.

"Don't leave me."
"I won't."
