"Liam's cutting and I love you."

Oh my god, Liam was cutting? Why? And she said she loved me? I just pulled away and gave her a kiss. It was short but sweet, and so passionate and meaningful.

When it was over, she gave me a faint smile and ran down the tunnel to her plane.

Oh my god.

Liam was cutting and she loved me.

M E L ' S P O V

I was sitting next to Stacy on the plane, and we talked during the majority of the flight. We talked about the other members, how Youtube was going, and how LA was doing for us.

"Yea, I just live a couple of blocks away from you, we should meet up for lunch sometime!", she said as we were walking off the plane.

"Totally! Well, it was great talking with you. I'll see you later!", I yelled. I started walking to my taxi that I had called earlier and got in it. The ride was the same as always, silent. I was scrolling through twitter when I saw a certain tweet.

@Graser10: back home now, have a very bittersweet feeling

I frowned. Why is he feeling bittersweet? Was it what I told him at the airport?

I finally got home. I threw all my clothes from my suitcase into the washing machine and walked next door. For the trip, I had left Ariel and Jas with my 23-year-old neighbor and her 7-year-old daughter. I knock on the door to see the lady standing there with smudged mascara, smoking a cigarette with one hand, a beer in the other.

"Hi, um, isn't it a little dangerous to smoke indoors?", I asked, pointing to her cigarette.

"Why don't you get out of business! I've had it rough, so cut me some slack!", she yelled, which caused her daughter to come running to the door.

"Hi, sweetie, can I just have Ariel and Jasmine? Then I'll be on my way!", I said.

"Um, miss, your cats escaped. I don't where they are!", she said shrugging her shoulders.

"Oh. Alright then, you two have a nice day.", I said walking away. The moment I shut my front door, I burst into tears. I'd been an emotional mess, and I knew seeing my kitties would take my mind off of things. But now I really have no one. No one but Zach.

I remembered his tweet that he was home so I decided to get on Teamspeak. There was a channel with Zach and Liam in it and I was kind of scared to join. But I did.

"Oh, hey Melanie!", Zach said happily.

"Hi, guys."

I glanced back over at the list of people in here and see Jordan was in here, too.

"I'll leave, Jordan. It's not a problem."

"No, I will.", Jordan said. Before he could say anything else, I logged off and continued to cry.

Melanie logged off, but I would've targeted actually Jordan to. He has just been talking about how bad Melanie is and how amazing Bee is.

"God, what'd her problem?", Jordan asked, laughing.

"Maybe her problem is that you called her a slut without letting her explain. And within five minutes after, you're making out with the girl you swore out of your life!", I yelled.

"Yeah, whatever.", he mumbled.

I heard some odd noises, like something big being tied.

"Is that you, Jordan?", I asked.

"Nope."

"Liam, what're you doing, bud?", I asked.

"You guys are all awesome. You guys are my best friends. And I loved Melanie. So I told her I loved her and I kissed her. And you saw, Jordan. And she tried to explain, but you interuppted her, calling her a slut. Then you run away with Bee, doing who knows what. I tried to talk to Melanie. But she told me I ruined her life. I can't live with that guilt. So I won't.", he said quietly. I realized what's happening. He was going to commit suicide, right here on Teamspeak.

"No, Liam, you don't want to do this! Think of your friends, your family! Think of your whole life ahead of you. Melanie can get over it!", I yelled.

"Liam, don't! I ruined her life, not you! I was the one who called her a slut, not you!", Jordan said.

"No, I started all of that drama, so now so I'm going to end it.", he said.

Over our screams and yells, I heard him say one last thing.

"Goodbye."

And we heard him struggle for a breath, but it was over.

Liam was dead.
