Let Me Help You PT.2

Trigger warning- Do NOT read this if you cannot handle anything related to suicide or self harm.

Third Person POV

"So you don't remember anything other than hearing Mia Fey and Me."
"Yeah.."
Miles slowley cracked Phoenix down with easy to answer questions. Just yes or no. Things about what he saw, felt, and heard.
Suddlenly a familiar clacking noise came from the hall. Footsteps.
"OH MY GOSH NICK YOU'RE OKAY!" Maya almost screamed into the room. She ran over to Phoenix and gave him a tight hug. Phoenix didn't really want to move his arms so he rested is head on Maya's shoulder.
"Why.. How.. WHAT? Nick why did you.."
"I'm sorry, Maya.."
Phoenix had no idea what to say to Maya. What could he say? "Yeah I tried to jump off a bridge."
He wasn't going to be in-sensitive to Maya. They were close friends.
"Why didn't you tell me what was going on?! You could have talked with me.."
"This is none of your concern. You don't need to be worrying about me. You have your own life to live."
"That doesn't matter! You could've atleast said something to me! Anything! That's what friends are for. Helping you out when you need it."
Maya was on the verge of tears. She didn't want to cry but it just happened. Miles just sat in a chair. He didn't want to interfere with what to two were speaking about. He had other things on his mind. Why did Phoenix want to jump? Or maybe someone was pressuring him to.. Miles' mind was boggled. He took his glasses off, rubbed the bridge of his nose, and looked down at the floor, resting his head in his hands and his elbows on his knees.
Phoenix closed his eyes and leaned his head back. He was sitting up in his bed. Phoenix didn't want to see Maya's sad eyes. She wasn't angry with Phoenix.

"Why..?" Maya paused, "Why did you try to jump..? I never noticed anything was wrong! Were together all the time.. I should have seen it.." Maya broke down and started crying. She started blaming herself for not seeing Phoenix was feeling down. Miles was snapped out of his little trance from hearing Maya weeping on the floor. He stood up, walked over to Maya, and guided her over to his seat. There was only one seat in the room. He didn't want Maya sitting on the ground. Yes, it was a hospital and everything should be clean. But the floor is a different story. You never know what could be on people's shoes.

"Maya. This isn't your fault. There is no need to cry over it. Please don't blame yourself. I tried to hide it for a reason. That reason is so you guys wouldn't worry about me."
Maya looked up and wiped off her cheeks with her sleeves.
"You still should have spoke to someone."
"I realize that now."
"How long has this been going on..?"
"For awhile now.."
"No.. Nick be more specific. Don't be vauge with us anymore."
"I.. still can't say."
"Okay Wright. That means someone or somethig is pressuring you and you promised you wouldent tell anyone."
"H-how d-"
Phoenix aburptly stopped speaking and put his hands over his mouth.

"So, I'm correct?"
Phoenix couldent put it off an longer.
"Y-yes.."
"Start explaining everything."
"A-alright.. So when I was in art school, I'd met Daliah. I'm sure you remember.. and after I got into the case when I found out she tried to kill me.. I started hearing her speaking to me. But she wasnt ever near me.. I-I don't know how.. I d-don't get I-it" Phoenix started breaking down. It was like when Maya had only a few minutes before. He brought his knees to his chest and silently cried.
"Nick.." Maya took this chance to comfort Phoenix. She wraped her arms around him, "Nick it's going to be alright.. We are going to help you fix this."
Daliah.. It's been a while since i've heard her name. Miles couldn't help but think of ways to help his old friend's problem.

Phoenix's POV

I broke down. I didn't mean to but I coulden't help it. I was holding this all in for so long.
"Nick everything is going to be okay. How come you never told anyone? There has to be a reason."
I looked up. I had burried my face in my knees. I still didnt want to move my arms. I was afriaid they would start bleeding, or the bandages would come off.
I looked up at the celing.
"I didnt say anything because I got a note with her hand writing on it. It said that if I told anyone that the people I knew would be hurt.. I care way too much about my friends to let them be harmed. So I kept to myself."
"That sounds exactly like somthing you would do. But it's also an example of what you shouldn't have done. The people you know can handle themselves."
"I know that! I was still worried though If she told me to hurt anyone and I did... I'd surley jump."
"Don't say that, Nick! It's not going to happen!"
"Wright. Why were you at that bridge?"
"I can't remeber. It's all blurry. I guess I kinda snapped out of it when you found me. Then I blacked out again."
"I can't handle hearing this.. I'll be back.."
Maya walked out of the room. I can see why. It's alot of information to take in.

"I can't understand what she wants.."
"I have an idea why.."
"Do tell."
"Okay so.. It may have someting to do with my relationship with Mia.. We were fairly close.."
"I.. see."
"I was also the one who got her out of Maya's body and Mia got hits on her."
"Hits?"
"She was another reason why Maya was safe is what i'm really trying to say.."
"I understand. Now's the big question."
"Hm?"

"How is she communicating with you, Wright?"
