-Dylan's point of view-
After I jumped it took me a minute or two to finally realize, I was dead. I stood up and stared at my body. Where's that light they always say is off in the distance? Why am I still here and not in heaven? While I was thinking about all of this, a man walked over to me.
"Hello," He smiled.
"Hi..." I said, not sure how this man could see me.
"I'm god, and you must be Dylan."
My eyes went wide, "you're, you're, you're GOD?"
"Yes sir. Now, Come watch this, because now you get to watch everyone's reactions to your death."
"Everyone but Believe..." I said, scared he'd make me see her.
"Oh but no, she's the most important one to see!"
My stomach sank, "No, please not Believe."
He ignored me and pointed at Jessica, "And now we begin."
-Jessica's point of view-
I ran towards where he jumped from and leaned over. He was just laying there. Not moving, and by the looks, he wasn't breathing either. I grabbed my phone and dialed 911. I explained what happened and then when I got off the phone with them, I called Believe. She was going to freak out. I sat down on the rock and waited for her to answer.
"Hey Jess!"
My heart sank at how happy she sounded. I was about to ruin that.
I took a deep breathe, "Believe, what are you doing right now?"
"At home reading, why?"
"Ok. Well make sure you're sitting."
"Jess, you're scaring me. What's going on?"
"I watched Dylan jump off the bluffs."
Silence.
"Believe?"
Silence.
"Believe?"
"Is he---" She stopped.
"No," I said in a sympathetic tone, "He's dead."
The line cut off, I knew she had hung up. My heart sank, I felt so bad for her. I heard the sirens off in the distance. I looked down at Dylan again, I
looked around for a way to get down there. I saw a small path over near the side. I walked over and down the path. When I reached the bottom I ran to Dylan. I checked my watch, It had to have been about five minutes since he jumped. I sat next to him and moved his head into my lap.
"Dylan? Dylan can you hear me? Say something."
Nothing.
"DYLAN Say something."
nothing.
I heard crunching of leaves above us, "WE'RE DOWN HERE." I shouted as I saw a paramedic's head look down at me. He nodded and pointed down to us. They took Dylan away and I stayed there. I could no longer move, I didn't want to. I knew that even the slightest thing I did would cause me to break into tears, so I sat still.
-Dylan's point of view-
"Let me guess," I said while looking at 'god', "Believe is next."
God nodded, and then we were in Believe's room.
She was laying in her bed, sobbing so hard. It was hard to watch her do that. I didn't want to even think I was the one to make her do that. I walked over to her and tried to rest my hand on her head, but I couldn't. I needed to let her know I was there for her. I had to let her know everything was going to be okay!
but I couldn't.
She stood up and grabbed the note I had written her. She put it in a box. She started filling the box with everything that reminded her of me. I could tell because she put all of her "cool" clothes into the box, all of her makeup and some of my sweatshirts and put the box in the front yard. I was confused but then I saw her light a match and the box, along with all the contents, went up in flames. I stared at it and so did she. A single tear ran down her face as she watched the box burn slowly.
"Bye, Dylan." She whispered.
"BUT IM RIGHT HERE!" I yelled trying to get her attention.
"She can't here you," God said, while resting his hand on my shoulder.
I let out an annoyed breath and then looked at god, "Okay, so that's Jessica and Believe, who's next?"
Right after I said that, we were in my living room.
My parents were sitting in the living room and a cop was before them. I tried to turn away, but God turned me around.
"Ed, Stacy, I'm very sorry to say. But your son committed suicide on the bluffs not far from here. "
My mom let out a cry and started to sob onto my dad's chest.
I had made everyone cry and upset. And I ruined Jessica's life by making her watch me jump. It would be a long time before she got over that. My parent's may never get over loosing a son, and my girlfriend lost her boyfriend today. I had just impacted everyone's life and not in a good way. I wanted to sink in to the ground. I didn't want to see anything else. I looked at god, "I made a huge mistake."
He nodded, "Yes you did. and I'm proud of you for realizing that."
god faded away, "NO COME BACK HERE." I shouted.
slowly the house started to fade, "WHAT IS GOING ON?!"
Tree's started to appear and soon I was standing on the bluffs again. "DYLAN" Jessica screamed.
It was all happening again. God is letting me do this all over.
"Go away Jessica, I'm not going to do any thing. I'm just thinking."
"Dylan, step off the bluffs. If you do, I'll tell everyone the truth!"
I snapped my head around,"Promise?"
"Promise."
I got off the rocks and walked towards Jessica.
"Make some calls," I said and walked away.
