Chapter 2

Nico's POV

My phone started playing the chorus of "Perfect One" by Lit. I smile and answer.

"Hey, bab-" I start.

"Nico." she breathes.

"Amy? What's up?" I ask.

"I-I'm so sorry." she whispers.

"Amy, what are you talking about? You haven't done anything wrong." I say, starting to get worried at the tone of her voice.

"Yes I have." she sobs.

"What have you done that you think is so bad?" I ask, grabbing my keys and heading out the door.

I needed to get to her. She sounded like she did when she'd called me in the past, freaking out and about to do something she'd regret the next morning.

"I've been cheating on you." she whispers.

"What?" I freeze.

"I'm so sorry! I tried to break it off, with both of you, but I just can't. I love you both so much." she sobs.

"We can work this out. Just don't do anything stupid." I say, hopping into my black Toyota Tacoma.

"I already have." she says, faintly.

I hear the phone clatter to the floor then a heavy thump.

"Amy? Amy!" I cry.

I back out of the driveway and speed the whole way to her house.


I burst into her house. I sprint down the hallway and to her bedroom. It was completely empty. I go to the bathroom and find the door locked. I wiggle the knob frantically. I end up kicking open the door.

I regret doing it.

"Amy." I breathe, wanting to un-see what I see.

There was my beautiful Amy, laying on the floor in a growing pool of her own scarlet blood.

I get on my knees and cradle her in my arms. Her white blond hair was soaked in scarlet, making it a dark cherry red, and there were several deep cuts on her wrists.

"Amy." I whisper, my voice trembling.

"Amy, please wake up." I plead.

She doesn't.

I bury my head in her chest and sob. This wasn't supposed to happen. I had been planning on buying that simple diamond ring that I knew she would love and proposing next week. This wasn't supposed to happen.

How was I going to live without hearing her voice everyday? Or feel her lips against mine? I wasn't even particularly angry about her cheating. I just wanted her back. I wanted to hear her voice and her sarcastic comments. I wanted to feel her hand in mine.

I would miss her so much. I had seen her everyday for the past five years. Cried when she had cried. Laughed when she had laughed. Felt pain when she did.

I couldn't fathom her being lowered into the ground and being there forever; alone. Her beautiful hair rotting away, along the rest of her body.

This thought just made me cry harder. I hadn't cried this hard and long since my dog had died when I was 10.

A/N:

There you are, my lovelies! Yes, Nico's girlfriend died. She killed herself because she couldn't take the guilt eating away at her for dating two guys at the same time.

Anyway, I'm not sure how often I'll update this story. Hopefully I can finish writing it soon and get the rest to you guys!

XOXO,
