Alright, I wrote this a while ago now. It's Jay angst time, so, yay! It will be short. Anywho, trigger warning! Attempted suicide. On a much happier note, it's Greenwhisp time!

Lloyd's P.o.v.

The world

Was mean,

The night

Was cruel.

My life

was hard.

Then I

Met you.

You got

Me through.

And though

I must

Now go,

I say

Goodbye.

Goodbye, goodbye.

When you go out,

Look about.

Look upon

The stars.

Say 'Hi.'

I'll look

Down,

Upon the ground,

And smile.

And say,

Goodbye.

These words run through my mind. The tears slip down my face as the others hug me. I see Ed and Edna come towards me. The others back away, giving us time alone. We watch each other. Suddenly, they wrap me in a hug. We sink to the floor, crying.

"W-Why did he have to try to go?" I sob. "W-Why did he try to leave me? Did I do something wrong?"

"Oh, honey, it's not your fault. Jay has had... problems, for a while. He just needed a way out. He thought it would be better that way." Ed says while Edna cries on my shoulder. We cry for a long time. I disentangle myself from them, moving to Sensei. I sit as close to him as I can. He wraps his arms around me as I cry. I can tell the others are watching, but I can't bring myself to care. Nothing matters, not anymore. Not since what Jay did. 

Sensei's P.o.v.

I hold Lloyd close, taking a kleenex and wiping his eyes. He sniffles.

"Don't worry, Lloyd. When he gets better, we can forget this behind. We can move on," I say. "We can forget," 

But I remember when we found out. I remember Lloyd's scream. I remember how we couldn't get Lloyd to leave him. How I went to Jay's parents and told them. How Lloyd wouldn't eat. Or how Lloyd fell into a deep depression we can't get him out of. The night was horrible. I sit down at the table, going through my memory again, trying to spot any clues I missed.

Memory

I sat at the table, sipping my tea. Jay walked by, an odd smile on his face.

"Hello, Jay." I greet him.

"Oh, hey Sensei." 

"Where are you going?" I ask.

"To bed. I'm tired. I'm gonna get some sleep." He starts to walk off. "Oh, hey, if you see Lloyd, tell him I love him for me, okay?" I nod. He smiles.
