MARCO POV

Hospitals. No one likes them. The pure white walls make you dizzy the world spinning under your feet as you inhale the scent of disinfectant. The strong smell that was carried through the air clearing all disease from the building… gone forever. But more people are rolled in some on stretchers some staggering along. More diseases enter the air and then whoosh they are gone the air is clean again. It travels on forever in a never-ending circle. Just like the circle of life. Around and around and around and around continuing on until there is no one left on earth. And if my best friend dies then the Nash family is gone from the earth and no more circle of life for them.

I should not be thinking about this Ellie is not dying she would be all right, because suicide was not an Ellie word…or was it? There were so many things I had not known about my best friend. Up until last week I did not know about Ellie's little knife dilemma.

Self-mutilation. Cutting. Rubber bands. Those were Ellie words… so I guess suicide fit in there somewhere. No. There was no way in hell I was sitting here in this straight-backed hospital chair thinking these thoughts about my best friend. This was just a dream, a terrible nightmare.

Everyone thought she was getting better. I thought she was getting better. Ellie told me she was getting better she promised me she was getting better. I mean her grades started improving but she still kept distancing herself from everyone. Or did we distance ourselves from her? Whichever one it did not feel right. I remember when we were attached by the hip, or that's what everyone would say. She confided in me, she told me everything and I listened. I shared my secrets and she listened with an open mind never interrupting me. Then there was last year… Ellie developed a crush on me and in that time I was struggling to find my true self. I liked Ellie I really did but I was not attracted to her. Paige's big brother Dylan caught my eye on the day of the beach trip and I knew that that subtle change of sexuality just changed my whole life. And at that time I did not care. But then EVERYTHING changed. Spinner began to hate me and I was looked at in a different perspective. That is when Ellie became distant. Who knew your whole life could change with three little words. "I am gay."
