(5 days, 12 hours, 42 seconds until surgery)

Bria's POV
"So, what do you want to do today? I was thinking we could go to a theme park or something!" I ask. Ethan faces away from me and shrugs. "What's wrong?" I mutter. "Nothing" he whispers. I cuddle up behind Ethan. "Tell Me" I beg. "This isn't a great thing to remember when going into surgery. We need to do something exciting"

"Bria I can't do this." Ethan says. "Do what" I ask shattered. "I can't pretend like I'm fine and not in pain 24/7. It's so hard to do anything! I want to be able to go out on amazing date with you but I just can't. I love you too much to fake it all. I know you want to do exciting things but the best thing for me right now is to stay at home and rest let alone spend a whole day at some ratchet ass theme park. I want to stay home, snuggle, binge watch Netflix, cry at depressing docos, play child hood board games, think about the future, stare at my gorgeous girlfriend so I can memorise every beautiful part of her. I want to spend time not doing exciting things but doing things that I will cherish"

"I'm sorry eth..." I slur. "I didn't know that's what you wanted. I should've asked"

Ethan smiles and cuddles up to me.
He whips out his laptop and puts Netflix on. "A girl like her? Let's just start sobbing now shall we" I laugh.

Ethan puts the movie on and literally seconds in we both start crying.

Half way through. Tear level at medium. Ethan passes me the box of tissues. I blow my nose and grab another to wipe my eyes.

"Omg" I sob while fanning my face.

There was about 20 minutes left and Avery was watching the videos of her bullying Jessica. Tear level at the max. I was crying my eyes out. Full on tears because I knew exactly how Jessica felt and I knew exactly what she was going through.

Ethan stands up to get another box of tissues since we had gone through all of them because of the sad scenes in the movie.

It really hits me when Jessica's heart stops beating. The sad part was not that Jessica could possibly be dead but was watching the parents. They were destroyed.

Once her heart starts beating again and they find a pulse I cry into Ethans shoulder.

"Jesus Christ I can't take this" I cry. Ethan wipes his tears away with a tissue and blows his nose.

'Can you turn it off' - Avery sobs

I cry so much when Avery says that. She felt so bad what what she did and she's so sorry.

We were sitting and watching the documentary in tears. It zooms in on Jessica's face.

She opens her fucking eyes.

I full on ball my eyes out. I cry like I have never cried before.

"HOLY SHIT" I yawn while wiping my face again.

I stand up and walk into the bathroom. I wash my face with cold water and dry it. I then head back to Ethan and cuddle into his shirt.

"I'm so happy I still have you" I mutter.

A/n
HOLY SHIT. if you haven't seen 'a girl like her' then I recommend you do. I have never cried at a movie before until I watched that. And the sad thing about it. It's all real. It all happened in real fucking life.
