Chapter 7

I head out and go to the nearby bridge and sit on the edge. I start thinking about my life, about how I hurt my friends although it was unintentional, my family; how they seem like they don't care about me, about what Darren told me today, why am I thinking about him anyway? and about everything that happened today from early morning till now. I hate my life.

This sucks. It sucks so much that I'm…crying? I touch my cheek and realize that I am crying. I wipe my tears off with the same hand. Great! Just great. So Pathetic. Can't believe I am so weak. I wish I could die. If I jump down there, maybe things would be all peaceful. And maybe these entire things that's happening around wouldn't happen anymore. I'm tired of everything.

"Hi! What's wrong?" a guy sitting next to me asked.

I don't remember someone sitting next to me just before. It's as if he appeared out of nowhere. He is a tall handsome muscled guy. I would say he is sculpted in a good way, sort of charming.

He is wearing white shirt, torn dark long jeans which look rather good on him. His eyes are deep cognac, like a beast, which suits his oddly pale skin and his silver hair.

He is glowing with the rays of sun falling on him making him look like that of an angel. He might be of the same age as me or may be just a bit older. I wipe my tears off my face.

"Nothing. Who are you anyway? Don't answer that, just go away!" I try to shoo him away.

He looks at me with his cognac-coloured eyes which can surely melt many hearts. He is damn charming. I am finding myself getting lost in his eyes. The warm and soft emotion he is displaying through his eyes makes me attracted to him.

"I was... I mean I just happened to pass by. Thought, might be you want to jump down in the river or something so just came looking here if you need a push just in case." He winks at me and smirk. What the-? I find myself blushing at his comment.

Well, he was somewhat right, I was just about to think that anyway but hearing it from someone else makes it seem selfish decision.

"No need. I came here to think about some stuff. Mr. Whoever you are. Go Away" I scowl.

"Well, I can surely see that you came here to think or maybe even cry, and I clearly don't like to see cute little face sad with tears... how about if you smile a bit for this stranger? And Its Ashton by the way, but you can call me Ash."

What the hell is wrong with this guy?

A laugh was beginning to escape my lips, by his cute tactics to make me smile but it was quickly submerged. "Geez, Thanks but no thanks. Besides I don't even know you." I snap at him.

"So?...No one wants to stare at a cry-baby all day and the name is Ash and now that you know me, you share the problem with me. Who knows I might be of your great help plus, I don't want you to cry anymore or even think about jumping down cause I clearly saw your thoughts running wild." He grins again.

My eyes grew wide and I sort of blush from embarrassment. "I don't see any reason why I should share my problems with you. We are not even friends. So go away" I scowl. This guy is really getting on my nerves now. "Nope" What?

"Fine, I'll get going" I stood up to go.
