Simon POV

"Simon, Simon, Simon!" Eric screamed in my face.

"Huh? Wait, where's Angel?"

"Probably helping with breakfast," Torra answered.

"Yeah, she promised to make us waffles and bacon!" Sebastian added.

"You're probably right."

I was still worried, though. When I told Angel I loved her, she didn't reply. Probably because she was already asleep? Before Mrs. Blatherwick took out our breakfast, Papa spoke up.

"Angel has left a note in my room that she wants me to read to you."

"Dear Brown Family,

Thank you so very much for everything. Thank you Mr. Brown for letting me stay. Mrs. Brown for letting me use your clothes. Thank you Aggie and Chrissy for making me feel useful. Thank you Sebastian for being somewhat like a little brother to me. Thank you Lilly for teaching me a wider vocabulary. Thank you Eric for the constant nudging. Thank you Torra for that push in the right direction.

Last but certainly not the least, Simon. Thank you for being concern when you found me in the forest. Thank you for offering for me to stay. Thank you for the white rose. I shall keep it close to my heart. Most importantly, thank you for teaching me how to love again. I'm sorry if I cannot stay. I am still afraid of losing the people I love the most. But I love you, Simon. More than anything else in the entire universe.

With all my heart,

Angel

P.S. Sebastian, I left your bacon and waffles on the stove. With extra maple syrup, just the way you like them. Bon appetite!"

"I don't want my waffles and pancakes anymore! I just want Angel back!" Sebastian cried.

I lifted my head. "This is all my fault. If I didn't fall for her..."

"Simon, it's not your fault."

"Mama, I know, but..."

"What are we still standing around for? She doesn't wake up too early! She couldn't have gotten far!" Torra finished.

"Yeah!" we answered.

We all ran out in one general direction. This was the only route she could've took. We spotted her.

"Angel! Angel!Angel!" We screamed.

Angel POV

I heard them call my name, but I resisted. I love them, but I was too scared to be hurt and to hurt them. I suddenly found myself in Manhattan, right in front of the Empire State Building. I saw Simon on the very top, trying to commit suicide. I quickly climbing, screaming at him.

"Simon, what do you think you're doing!? Come down!"

"Well, if it isn't the beautiful Angel that broke my heart and made my life meaningless."

"Simon, I was just trying to stop myself from hurting you and your family!"

"When we tried to reason with you, did you listen? No! Then I'll do the same."

"Please, Simon! I'll come back with you. Please don't kill yourself. I'll do anything. Please, Simon. I love you! Please. I love you more than my own life. Please, Simon. Please."
