Mack heard Sophie and she felt her lips quiver. "I love you too," Mack said softly before glancing at Jesse before leaving the room. The only thing was she didn't plan on coming back.
Jesse looked at Sophie. "They wanted to call Mom and Dad," Jesse said to her.

Sophie hated watching Mackenzie leave. She wanted her here by her side. But she’d be back. She had said she’d be back. She turned to look at Jesse as he began talking. “You say that like they’re not going to.” she muttered. “They’re going to soon enough. I want them to.”

Sophie rolled her eyes. “Out of my mind? I don’t think so. Wait, I did almost kill myself for the second time last night.” she chuckled. “Oh, I should post this. This sort of shit is trending in a certain community on TikTok, I’ll get a ton of views.”

"You think this is funny? I could have lost you Soph! Why'd you do it?" Jesse asked her. "And take this shit seriously because they're going to keep you here until they feel you're not a danger to yourself."

Sophie grinned at Jesse’s reaction. “Oh come on, you’re being far too serious about all of this,” she replied. “But if you want me to be serious fine. When they call our dad he won’t show up because he doesn’t want to get caught acting like he’d rather I hadn’t survived and he doesn’t know how to act like he cares about me. And there will be people to catch whatever he says because your mother will turn this into some charity related publicity stunt. In the end he’ll just pay my medical bills and prepare some big speech about it to humiliate me with for whatever charity ball he brings me back for next.” She studied the wall as she went on. “My mom, on the other hand, might just show up and acknowledge I exist in some way that doesn’t involve blackmailing me for money.”

"Can't you be serious for once in your life? You could have actually died today Sophia," Jesse snapped at her. "As much as I hate her, thank god she got home in time to save you."

A few hours goes by and Mackenzie never returned. Jesse sat in the room with Sophie, keeping her company so she wasn't alone. Jesse was watching something on the TV, struggling to stay awake.

Over the next few days, Sophie kept quiet. She’d contacted her dad when she got the chance and he was paying for the bills on the condition that she come home for a week or so in April, but other than that she’d talked to very few people. She answered the bare minimum when the doctors asked her questions, which did little to help them believe she wasn’t going to try to kill herself again. The only thing she’d made very clear was that she hadn’t tried to Jill herself she’d just taken self harm too far. Whether they believed the lie or not, it didn’t seem to matter.
Now, they had contacted Mackenzie and Jesse to bring them in for a group session. She wasn’t sure whether they’d come. Jesse seemed pretty mad at her and Mackenzie had never come back while she was in the hospital. Now, she waited in her room, not wanting to actually attend any sort of therapy. It was about five minutes past when she was supposed to be there that a nurse came in and told her this would be her last warning, so she got up and slowly walked over to the room and plopped down in a cushy chair.

Mackenzie was distraught from what she heard from Jesse while standing outside the room. She basically left the room that day and never came back because she didn’t want to run in to Jesse again. She kept to herself in her room and made sure that Jesse was either in his room or gone when she left the room. She had been contacted by the ward about a group session that both she and Jesse were invited too. She didn’t know if he would show up but she missed her girlfriend. So Mack got dressed in pants and a T shirt and made her way to the hospital. Mack was led to a room and she knocked on the door frame hesitantly.
