Short chapter, sorry. Writers block is beating my ass. I'll try to get more content written for the next chapter. Also, listen to the song above.

⚠️TRIGGER WARNING⚠️

Stephen's POV

I feel my heart break, as though something has happened to her and I can't save her...

"Where are we going?" I ask Tamara.

"When she was little, her family used to take her down to this lake, and they brought me one time," she pauses, "when we had gotten away from her parents though... she had said 'this is where I want to die' and walked away. I didn't know at the time that she was struggling, but that was the first sign she gave me."

I watch as tears slide down her blotchy face.

"I just never thought that she'd..." she starts crying harder, "I never thought she'd take her life."

I put my hand on her shoulder as a sign of comfort, trying not to break myself.

Adriana POV (Kelseys mom) surprise POV (;

"I-I need you t-to get h-home and l-look u-under y-your pillow..." Steph stutters through the phone.

"Why?" I ask him.

"Do it for Kelsey's sake..." he says before ending the call, but not before I hear someone start crying.

I race down to my car and gun it all the way home.

I run up the stairs and look under my pillow.

There's a white envelope with 'Mom' on it with a small, red rose attached to the envelope.

"Oh, Kelsey..." I say, gently opening the letter and reading it aloud.

'Dear mom,

I'm so sorry I have to do this to you, but it's for the best. Im not the daughter you want, you deserve a better one.

I'm unable to make you and dad happy with what I do and how I do things. I know that he's disappointed in me. I know that your saddened by having a suicidal daughter.

I don't really have much to say to you guys... and I'm sorry. And even though I know I'm not going to make it, I just can't tell you guys things.

Goodbye mom, dad.

I love you so much.

Your daughter,
Kelsey'

What?

I reread the letter to make sure I'm reading everything correctly and run to my car.

I can't let my baby girl die.

I won't let that happen.

I'm coming, Kelsey.

I'm coming.

Kelsey's POV

I hear screams.

How?

I'm dead. I shouldn't be able to hear anything. Unless...

No, I'm dying. I'm not going to fail.

Not a fucking chance.

I can't do anything else now though.

I can barely think.

I shouldn't be able to.

I can feel my blood pouring out of me.

I can feel the drugs in my system.

I just want to fucking die.

Let me fucking die.
