A yellow haze filtered through the tops of the trees, illuminating the flowers perched next to a rather familiar looking tree. Several students were standing near the tree, watching the petals from the flowers sway gently in the wind. Their faces were emotionless, very emotionless. What they were feeling wasn't any concern to the others that were standing there. Some tears were being shed, especially from those who were close to Sean Cameron. In the center of all the flowers lay a poster where an array of pictures captured the nice smile that their old friend had. He was happy then, why wasn't he happy and why did he do this?

Ellie trudged towards Craig and laced her fingers into his as she watched the memorial site, the tree where he had hung himself. The young girl wondered if Sean's parents knew why he was acting the way he was? She wondered if they knew that he was now somewhere in heaven watching over them. The redhead's eyes looked up to the sky, her lips shivering from the pain that she was experiencing inside her heart. Ellie could no longer cry, her eyes were bloodshot and they were dry. How ever much she wanted to, she couldn't shed a single tear.

More students joined the small group of students, several of them placing flowers near Sean's pictures, notes written to him, as well. Ellie couldn't stand being here anymore, she couldn't take her eyes off of the picture of Sean and her. She could have saved him, she could have saved him from killing himself that fateful night. If Ellie wished she had known that there was something that was troubeling him, and of course, there had been something that had been troubeling him. The redhead pulled Craig with her and slowly traipsed out of the ravine, watching as students passed them by.

Craig was rather upset about all of this, as well. Here he had lost a really good friend and he didn't know what to think about the matter. If he had only visited him when he was around, rather than being overprotective of Ellie, maybe he could have saved his dear friend. From what he had heard from Ellie, he had noticed that Sean seemed different from before. He wasn't the same Sean that he used to know way back in the day. Sure, he had a history of violence, but seeing that he desperately wanted love wasn't something that he had seen from Sean before. Meaning, he hadn't seen him so aggressive with women and wanting their love immediately. That was something that he didn't get.

The two of them stifled a small sigh as they finally exited the ravine. The site was so beautiful, so precious, filled with so many memories of the past. The only thought in their mind was that of Sean and their wishing that he rested in peace and hoped that his family was taking it well.

Mrs. Cameron awoke from shaking of her husband's desperate hands. Her eyes looked into his, tears trickling down the sides of his cheeks. Her heart was beating really fast, she had never in her life seen her husband cry like this before. Biting her lip, she sat up on her bed and looked at the man before her and then noticed a police officer standing right next to him. Her spirits fell immediately, she knew that something was terribely wrong now.

"What's happened?"

"Sean...he's dead...he killed himself..."

"OH MY GOD! NO!" Her voice shreiked over the rooftops of the houses in Wasaga Beach. Tears filled her eyes as she couldn't control her sobbing, she grabbed her husband and held him tightly. "What did we do? What did we...do? Why? No..." She was rocking back and forth, she couldn't think anymore, she couldn't see why her son would do such a thing.

"M'am, they found these words posted on the tree, do you know what it means? '
Your words raptured my soul, tore it apart into tiny little peices. Here I hang myself in the misery of your hostility towards my love.'"

Those words tore a wound into Mrs. Cameron's heart. Sean had hung himself, and what he had written before he had done it was very meaningful to her and to her husband as well. She couldn't control her sobbing, all she could do was cling onto her husband and rock back and forth, muttering incoherent words to herself.

Sean had been sitting in his room, staring out the window. He had regreted coming to Wasaga Beach, there was nothing there for him, except for his family. He watched as his parents were outside, socializing with each other. Here, he had no friends, nothing at all that could make him happy. Ever since he had deserted Ellie so ruthlessly, he had been regreting that day because it hurt him emotionally, building a scar in his heart.

Mrs. Camaron watched as her son came out onto the footsteps of their house. His eyes filled with tears and a longing for something. She watched him. Lately, they haven't been getting along. There were arguements just about every night before they went to bed. Sean's parents had started drinking again and the boy was very upset about that. He didn't come back to Wasaga Beach just to see his family drinking again. He hated that with passion and he never wanted to be like them.

"Where the HELL do you think you're going?" Her words shot right at him.

"AWAY from here! You don't love me anymore, nor does dad! I hate both of you!"

"SEAN CAMERON! DON'T YOU EVER SAY THAT!"

"I just did! You've made my life miserable here from the first moment I stepped foot back here...I'm out of here!"

"Oh no you don't! If you leave us now, we won't take you back here!"

"Fine, see what I care."

"We don't love you anymore, then!" His drunken mother's words were so harsh that he started running and running as fast as he could. There was nothing that was following behind him, and that was the day that he dissappeared from Wasaga Beach.

It had been all her fault. She was the cause of Sean running away, of Sean hating her so much. She couldn't remember all the specific details, as she was quite wasted that very day, but she knew that she didn't mean anything that she had said. Ever since that day he had left, she had stopped drinking and would stare out the window, waiting for any sign of her Sean to come home, he never did, and now, he never will.

"We're very sorry about your loss. We'll leave you two alone for a while."

The Cameron's sat down on the bed and watched as the police officers headed out of the door that led to their hallway. They held on to each other tightly and cried into each other's chests, breathing heavily and uncontrolably. They had lost their youngest son and now they had nothing else that they could do. Their older son had moved far away from them and they had nothing in their lives except for themselves.

Emma kicked her foot against the hard surface of the leave filled floor as she headed deeper into the ravine. Her eyes trailed to where many students were standing, some coming and some going. A pang filled her heart as she spotted the collage of pictures with Sean smiling in each and every one of them. Tears ran down her cheeks as she stood there for a minute, searching through the students and through the pictures. Here was another death that was closely related to her, each and every tiem, she thinking that she was the fault of it.

A familiar face was in the crowd of students. His fists were clenched very tightly as he stared off into the distance with tears in the corner of his eyes. Emma sauntered languidly towards him and stood next to the boy. She intwined her arm in his and looked at him. He looked at her and gave her a small hug. He knew that she was just as upset that he was, maybe even more since she had been his ex.

Jay couldn't believe that Sean had killed himself. The students of Degrassi would never know the real reason why, all they could do was blame themselves. No words were exchanged as they stood there, but everyone knew what everyone else was thinking. Emma hugged Jay back and they stood there in silence, relishing each other's company and mourning for the death of Sean Cameron.
