"Turn off the TV lads, I want to speak you for a second." William said to his sons. Adam who was actually in the other room went up to his father as did his older brother Jimmy who was previously cooking his dinner. "Come here" William said again this time gesturing a hand for his sons to come closer. "Right now listen, you mothers gone telling your sister now and I'm telling YOU now. You know every two years I go for that Biopsy, well they found I have Cancer." William saying this hushtly, with a single tear building in his eye, then looking at Adam. Adam stood there, trying to understand what he was saying with his eyes filled with question but angerand his mouth parted slightly. "Don't look at me like that" William smiled stroking the side of his sons face.
"W-w-what type?" Was the only words that Adam could even say.
"Prostate" William replied.
Turning around to go back to what his tasks and games Adam went back into the other room.
His brother continued to ask questions in Adams wake, but his words muffled with anger in Adams ears. Looking around the room and taking in one breath of air. Adam gripped the side of the table and forced him self to to burst out into tears. Still sobbing his father and brother obviously hearing went silent.
I guess knowing that you father has one of the most feared illnesses was alot to take in. The night had passed...sleepless Adam would use internet Messaging to talk to the people he loved. He loved no one as much as he loved Caroline. She was perfect. She was the first and only person he would tell about his troubles. After a sleepless night, Adam continued to live his life normally, going to school and putting ona brave face. It was in the middle of his computer class when he stumbled on the internet finding a website with a picture. It was ScreenPrint of an Email:-

"I guess now you are wondering why I did it Mom? I'm sorry it wasn't you fault. I guess I have been planning it for 6 month. I wanted to get so stuff in order first. Remember I love you and if I see Dad I'll tell him you still love him. Don't forget to tell Dan (his brother) I love him too. I was happy with what I had done with my life and I wished to end it....Malcolm"

As Adam read this he ran out the room grabbing his bag then putting his hands over his face. And the rest of the class watching, wondering if he was ill or something. Walking out of class Adam realising he was skipping school, and this was it.

As he got home he turned on the computer and sat down infront of it, and just like Malcolm he wrote and email, to be sent to his fathers office, and to his parents home email addresses. As he did that he noticed Caroline had come online.
"Hey" she said to him.
"Hey" he replied back and sending the email. "Darling...." Adam said reaching over to a Stanley knife ontop of his fathers tool box. "....I love you" SLICE. He pressed down the knife quickly moving it across his wrist. Feeling it hard to breath and shocked by the pain. Adam fell off the chairholding his wrist close to his body, the floor streamed red. As he looked back up to his computer screen....She had said back. "I love you too".......

Those who are closest to me, know me and what shit is happening to my life. So threw that and then listening to Adam's Song by Blink 182, which was based on an Email that was sent to a 16 year old guys parents before he committed suicide. Which actually happened......

So read all of this if you want to know how I am feeling, or if you simply want to cry.

-------------------------------------

I never thought I'd die alone
I laughed the loudest, who'd have known?
I traced the cord back to the wall
No wonder it was never plugged in at all

I took my time, I hurried up
The choice was mine, I didn't think enough
I'm too depressed to go on
You'll be sorry when I'm gone

I never conquered, rarely came
16 just held such better days
Days when I still felt alive
We couldn't wait to get outside

The world was wide, too late to try
The tour was over, we'd survived
I couldn't wait 'til I got home
To pass the time in my room alone

I never thought I'd die alone
Another six months, I'll be unknown
Give all my things to all my friends
You'll never step foot in my room again

You'll close it off, board it up
Remember the time that I spilled the cup
Of apple juice in the hall
Please tell mom this is not her fault

I never conquered, rarely came
16 just held such better days
Days when I still felt alive
We couldn't wait to get outside

The world was wide, too late to try
The tour was over, we'd survived
I couldn't wait 'til I got home
To pass the time in my room alone

I never conquered, rarely came
Tomorrow holds such better days
Days when I can still feel alive
When I can't wait to get outside

The world is wide, the time goes by
The tour is over, I've survived
I can't wait 'til I get home
To pass the time in my room alone

Okay. This genuinely did make me cry...that's so rare, I don't do crying over a prose or something!!! Although it means you're a good writer, so take it as a compliment :)

I don't know what shit you're going through, but I just want you to know that, if you did want someone to talk to or something, I am here (cos I rock but sh :P lol, only joking).

Hope you feel better soon, my dear.

Love, Jenni xxx

I know we might not be altogether close.
But I want you to listen.
If you ever need to talk to someone who doesn't know anything- well, you know what I mean.
I'm here.

Always- yeah?
