The Apology Part 2

Aaron's PoV

I just held her against me for a bit. I felt her sobbing making her body pulse more and more. I held her even tighter.
"I'm so sorry Aaron." She sobbed. I didn't respond. After a minute or two of her sobbing into me, I rolled over to my side, so she would be next to me. I then stood up, and helped her up.
"Val, I love you. You know that, right?" I said looking into her dark brown eyes. She was so beautiful. I loved her tanned skin, dark eyes, and long brown hair. She was perfect in every way. She was tall, probably about 5'8", but I was still taller than her, and she was the perfect size; not super skinny like some girls. I genuinely do not understand why she would commit suicide.
"I know. I love you to Aaron." She replied as we started walking back to the hotel. When we got there, we found Amanda, George, and Eddie sitting in her room. When we got there, Amanda ran towards Val and hugged her.
"I'm so glad you're alright!" Exclaimed Amanda. She was followed by George, and finally Eddie.
"What happened back there?" Asked Eddie. I explained what had happened, but left out the part about the bridge, thinking Val wouldn't want them to know.

Val's PoV

Aaron told the others what happened, leaving out the part where I tried to kill myself. Eddie then pulled me to the corner of the room.
"He really loves you, Val." He said while locking his bright green eyes with mine. Eddie usually looked quite happy, with his bright eyes, brown hair and his freckles, but right now, he looked slightly concerned. I nodded. We all sat in silence for a few minutes. We occasionally glanced at the large clock above the bookshelf in the room. 11:14pm.
"We should probably go back to our room now." Said George. Everyone mumbled in agreement. The guys started to leave, but Aaron looked at me with concern in his intense blue eyes.
"Will you be alright tonight?" he asked me.
"Maybe." I replied, unsure if I would be feeling okay or not.
"Do you want me to stay here tonight?" He asked. I nodded. I went to the bathroom and changed into my pyjamas; an old pair of field hockey sweatpants, and a tank top from my dance studio. I removed all of my makeup, which luckily was waterproof so it didn't run everywhere. I left my hair in the braid. I returned to my bedroom, where Aaron was waiting. I walked over to him, and we hugged. I then sat down on my bed, which ha several pillows, simple white sheets and a white, soft duvet. He sat next to me and wrapped his strong arms around me. He held me there for a minute, then he kissed the top of my head, and we stopped hugging.
"Aaron?" I said.
"Yeah?" He looked into my eyes again.
"I'm sorry for what happened tonight."
"Don't apologize, it's my fault Val."
"No it's not. I could have died tonight, just because I didn't think you cared about me." I said as I lied down on the bed. I let the tears roll down my cheeks. Aaron lied down next to me, and took a deep breath.
"Val, I love you. Some girl just decided to kiss me tonight. It's not your fault, or mine. I just want to know one thing: why?"
"Okay well, I tried to kill myself because my family has never been perfect. My mom expects so much from me; she said I needed to be getting good grades, at least honour role with distinction, she wanted me to be the best player on the basketball team, and she always said I had to go to university and become a radiologist. Mu dad would say the same things, and I constantly had to deal with everyone in my family fighting and arguing. My brother would say things like "You have no talent.", "Stop singing." Because my dream was to make it to broadway and he always felt the need to make me cry or whatever. My social life was also hell. At school, I was never pretty enough for any of the boys to like me, the popular girls would always say I was a loser or that I was annoying or that no one wanted me in their life, and people always said things to me, like "Go kill yourself." or "No one loves you." and I only really had one friend, and now she's on broadway, living the perfect life." My talking had turned into sobs by now.
"Val, look at me." Aaron said. "You are incredibly talented, smart, beautiful, funny, and you're perfect in every way. I love you so much Val. If you died tonight, I don't know what I would do. I don't want to live without you. I am in love with you, Valerie Rhodes."
