••Third Person••

Delicate snow flakes fell from the sky and landed gracefully onto the concrete ground. The pathway was hidden under the thin blanket of snow; the air icy and cold. It was a normal November night, at least for some people.

A young girl, no older than 18, stood on the top of a tall building. A lacy white nightie clung to her body, the wind blowing her chestnut hair over her pale face. Her blue eyes gazed down at the ground below her. Her frail hands shook, her blue lips quivering. At first glance, she looked alone up on the rooftop, but she wasn't.

Behind her stood a boy with dark, curly hair. His usual captivating eyes were glazed with worry as he stared at the girl in front of him.

His heart shaped lips opened and his soft voice spoke.

"Please don't do this!" The wind drowned out his words so they were on a faint whisper to her.

"Just step away from the edge and take my hand. We can get through this together" he continued, his voice becoming panicked. Goosebumps prickled his skin, the hairs on the back of his neck stood up. "Just take my hand."

Hesitation flickered across her soft face. Clumps of snow clung to her matted hair and the cold seeping through her thin clothing began burning her skin. The desperation in the boys voice was clear, even to the girl who had spent her nights convincing herself she was unloved and worthless. Even to the girl who was so oblivious to the love he felt for her.

"Please."

The girl turned slowly and reluctantly, but lost her footing and slipped down the frosty rooftop. Her stick like fingers clung to the drain pipe just in time and she hung from there.

The boy was quick to slide down the slate roof and reached out to grab her hand. A piercing scream echoed through the air as she let go of the drain pipe, the boys fingertips just missing hers.

She soared through the air, falling further and further down...
