Jack's POV
Why? Why can't we die? It's so nerve whacking that we can't die. I've attempted death before so I wasn't that scared.
The jump was only 3 floors down. I happened to love heights. Heights were a good way to get a dose of a adrenalin. Especially if your one like me. The adrenalin rush doesn't happen often to us, us Blue Bloods.
This will be just like jumping off of the high dive of the pool. Fun with a dose of adrenalin added to all the other thoughts that you gonna die if you stayed under too long. But I had nothing to worry about what so ever. After all, we don't die… at least it hasn't been proven yet.
Ok here I go. One, two….
RING!
Ah Crap. There goes the bell for us to go to our next class. I better do this right now before anyone notices someone's going to jump fifty feet to their death.
And three!
Ok, so far that was the best adrenalin rush I got out of trying to prove the committee wrong. The train was pretty scary since I decided to try that first and had no experience in trying to commit suicide but no matter what I did it wouldn't work.
The cutting was just something I thought of while watching a movie with Mimi, who was into watching people trying to mess up their lives.
But the jumping off of the balcony and landing on the cortile, completely unharmed, was just because I missed jumping off the diving boards during summer. Sure their weren't that many swimming pools or three meter diving boards that came along with that, but if you were like me, knowing the whole swim team and all the other teams there were to know at a school like mine, so small that you ended up knowing who's who since you were toddlers, you got invited into the most exclusive parties there were. And your able to sneak into the different parts of New York without getting caught.
But these attempts at suicide that didn't end with me dead was starting to prove to me that the committee was right, that is about us never being able to die at our own hand. They never mentioned us not being able to die at another's…
