Love through a suicidal act...

Dylan’s POV
When Hayley and Joan came walking down the stairs, Joan took my breath away. She was wearing her rainbow shorts and a blue tank top with a neon purple crop top. She looked beyond amazing and more beautiful than beautiful. Her hair bounced as she came walking down the stairs. “Ready?” I asked when I finally found air in my lungs and the words to say something. “Yeah” she and Hayley replied before we started walking towards the door. She waited for Hayley and I to exit before she locked the door behind her and we started walking in the direction of my school.
Joan is different than the other girls her age, she doesn’t think much of herself and she doesn’t get all the guys, in fact she’s never had a boyfriend and that’s what I like about her. I’ve had a few girlfriends through my life, but since the first day I’ve met Joan, I’ve never looked at another girl again. Hayley knows that I like Joan and I know that she’s probably already told Joan, but I know Joan and she probably won’t believe Hayley cause in her own eyes, she’s not worth loving and living for, but I think the total opposite.
When we reached the field we found a place to sit, Joan sat behind me with Hayley next to her.
When the final whistle blew, I started jumping around and before I knew it, I picked Joan up and then only when I saw the look on her face did I realise what I have done. I immediately placed her back on the ground and apologised. “I didn’t even know my brother can still blush?” Hayley commented and a few seconds later Joan bursted into laughter. “Let’s go” Hayley said “Wait not yet” I replied before I started running in the direction of the guys who just came fresh off of the field. After I talked to the guys I ran back to the girls and told them we can start heading home. On our way home I stopped and bought everyone a bottle of water. We then continued walking home and when we reached Joan’s house, I waited outside while my sister fetched her bags inside. When they came walking out Joan said “Bye” before giving my sister a hug and then giving me a hug.
“You really like her?” my sister said while we were walking “yeah” I answered. “Just wondering” my sister said and by the way I know her, she’s up to something. “What are you up to?” I asked suspicious “nothing that you should know about” she replied. “I hate it when you do that” I smiled at her “shame” she smiles “I love you sis” I say as I pull her in for a side hug. “Love you too big bro” she replies with a smile.
Joan’s POV
After Hayley and Dylan left, I went up to my room and when my mother returned from work, she started with the food. My phone buzzed and when I picked it up, I saw Tristan’s name. “Oh god, this can’t be good” I say. I unlock my phone and when I opened the chat, I saw the words that hit me like a truck. After a while of reading, I started crying and then only did I realise that I was only half way. The words just kept going on and the longer it went on, the worse it got. When it finally stopped, I stood up and threw my phone out the window. I don’t care if it broke, cause that’s the whole point. Suddenly my mother called me and said the food is ready. I started walking down stairs, not even caring about my red eyes or my tears. When I reached the kitchen, my mother immediately saw my eyes. “What’s wrong sweetie?” she asked and like always, I just made up an excuse. “I was just watching Teen Wolf and Allison died” I replied. “Oh… ok” she replied before we sat down at the table. “I’m not hungry” I said “Why not?” she asked. “I went and watch a football match with Hayley and Dylan and on our way back we stopped at a restaurant” I said, lying my arse off. “Ok, I’ll put it in the microwave, so it’s there if you get hungry” she said with a smile “thanks” I said before walking back up to my room. I took out my laptop and started writing on my next chapter, making sure to add the happenings of the last 10 minutes.
*the next morning*
I woke up when my alarm clock screamed and I then realised that I had fallen asleep last night while working on my story. I closed my laptop and placed it on my table before I quickly jumped into the shower. I didn’t take too long in the shower and when I got out of the shower, I brushed my teeth and then got dressed. I grab my bag and then head down and before I walk out of the house, I shout a goodbye to my mother. When I open the door I see Hayley already waiting for me. “Sorry I’m a bit late” I said before we start walking. “I’m early” she said before we gave each other a ‘hello’ hug. “So did you sleep well?” she asked “I fell asleep while writing, but otherwise, yeah and you” I replied “good” she said. “So what are you doing this afternoon?” she asked “probably just writing and you?” I asked. “I heard the new ice rink opened at the mall. So I was wondering if you wanna go ice skating with me?” she asked with a smile. “Sure but which mall?” I asked knowing that she would’ve forgotten the name and I have no idea of which mall she is talking of. “Ummm… it’s the new mall, it’s just over the road of the park that we used to go to…” she said as she looked at me with a ‘help me out’ face. “Ok, well I’ve never been to it before. So… why not?” I replied “but my mother will have to take us, cause it’s kinda too far to walk” she added not sure if my answer would still be the same. “Fine by me” I replied and I could see it was a huge relief for her. We entered the school and just in time, cause a few minutes later, the bell rang.
When the bell finally rang and it was time to go home, I rushed out of class to where Hayley was waiting just to bump into Tristan, Tayler and Melissa.
Hayley’s POV
I waited for Joan at our usual meeting spot and when she didn’t turn up, I decided to go and look for her. I walked up and down through the hallways and then searched the field, only to find nothing. I started to panic and I then stopped for a second just to think for a moment. I decided to walk to the last class that Joan had for the day and from there walk all the way to the meeting spot. I reached the class and from there on I started walking towards the spot. I walked around the corner, only to find Melissa, Tayler and Tristan surrounding Joan. I started running towards Joan and when I reached her I pushed Melissa out of the way and started pulling Joan away from them. “Don’t listen to them” I said when I realised that I was having no luck in trying to move Joan, but they just kept on saying the nastiest comments to her and she just kept on crying. When they finally stopped I got Joan to move and I pulled her in for a hug. “Don’t believe a word that they said, cause it’s not true” I said hoping that she would believe me, but she just kept on crying. I started walking with her and after a while, we pulled out of the hug. We kept on walking towards her house and when we reached the front door, I walked her in. “So we still doing the ice skating?” she asked “of course” I replied. “We’ll pick you up” I said. “Can’t wait” she said with a smile, before I gave her a hug and walked out of her house and in the direction of my house.
