Ashton P.O.V

So Cass told us she picked up that razor again...I told her not to. I guess I understand since her mom died and all. I stayed behind to talk to her.

"Cass I told you to stop." I said sitting on her bed next to her.

"I'm sorry, are you mad?"

"No, I just didn't want you hurting yourself."

"I miss her." She says pointing to a framed picture of her and her mom.

"I'm sorry." I say. She remains quiet so I hug her. She starts crying again.

Cass looks as me as I say "Please don't cry. I don't want to see someone I love cry." She kisses me and I kiss her back.

"Do you want to go on a date? I know this may not be the best time to ask you but, do you?" I ask holding her hand.

She nods and hugs me. I go home and wait until tomorrow for our date.

Cass P.O.V

It sucks to say I don't have a friend that's a girl. If I did she'd probably come over to help me on my date and all the madness going on. Whenever I try to be friends with someone the instantly stop talking to me. It doesn't really hurt me so I just gave up trying.

This one summer I made a friend. She was nice, she understood me. I liked talking to her but she ended up dating Calum. I didn't get jealous I just didn't want anyone getting hurt. She ended up having sex with someone who was 18. She got pregnant. Calum was upset at first but he realized that what she did was stupid.

Tomorrow I'd be going on a date with Ashton. This will actually be our second date. I went to sleep but woke up again later at like 3 am.

"Crap it's only three?" I say looking at my clock. I actually got up and walked to my mom's room.

I always wanted to look through mom's things but I wouldn't be allowed. I open her closet and look through her clothes. Normal stuff really. A black box catches my eye. It looks like a normal box, a piece of paper was taped to the box. I instantly got interested in this box, so I took it and sat on my mom's bed.

The letter read:

"If you are reading this, I'm most likely not doing well. I asked my friend from work to drop this off in my closet. Hi Cassandra. I can imagine the pain you must be going through but it's ok, my mom died when I was young so I never knew her. I love you and I hope you love what's inside. In this box there is a jar. It's a jar full of wonderful things. The jar has ideas on dates, really good advice and whenever you get bored there is something here for you to do! Each piece of paper is labeled with 'date ideas','I'm bored' and 'advice'. It doesn't just have a jar, it has empty journals that might be filled with your ideas. Cassandra I've seen the blade you have in your bathroom. Don't harm yourself, Ashton seemed like the kind of person who would take care of you. I hope the Hood family takes good care of you. Even though you can choose to live by yourself just promise me you'll be happy. Being happy means you are okay and don't need anything else."

I cried halfway through this. I opened the jar and journals. I couldn't believe me mom did this for me. These tears were both happy and sad tears but either way I was ok.

I got tired and went to sleep. Hopefully I actually wake up at a normal time.
