My name is Casey. When I was sixteen I almost did something really stupid. I almost killed my self. I would of but my best friend stopped me. If it was not for her I would not be hear right now. I only had one friend her name was Emily. I did not have many friends because I was always the person to get the highest grades in the class, there were rumors that I have karate chopped a teacher (wich was not true) so every one avoided me, and I was shy. I will tell you how Emily became my friend and how she saved me from killing myself.
The first time I had met Emily was in the middle of math class. Emily was a new student. The principal asked the teacher to choose someone out of the class to show Emily around the school. The teacher chose me because I was ahead in class. Once I showed her around I took her to the class rooms to meat the teachers. Then the bell rang and I went to my next class as she went to hers. During lunch she came up to me and asked, "Why are you sitting by yourself?" I said, "Because I have no friends." Emily then said, "yes, you do have friends because from now on I will be your friend." I said, "okay" I told her about me and she told her about herself. Over the next few weeks we became best friends.
One time we had this huge argument over this boy that we liked. We would not talk to each other, we would avoid each other. This went on for about two weeks before I went and said I was sorry. There was this one time that some students were saying mean stuff and Emily stood up for me.
The day that I almost killed myself was on November nineteen. The day started out good. When I went to my third hour class I had when this group of people came up to me and started calling me names. One person in the group said, "You know that kid Emily is only being your friend because she feels sorry for you." When I heard that I ran out of the class room crying. I ran out of the school to this bridge. I climbed up on to the bridge and stood there for a little bit. When I was about to jump off I heard someone yell stop. When I looked back and saw a police officer. He slowly came close to grab me but I said, "Do not come any closer or I will jump." The police officer stopped he tried to talk me down he said, "Please get off the bridge you do not want to do this. You have friends and family that love you." NO, I do not I have no friends and my family hates me." I said. "Your wrong, you do have a friend and your family loves me." some one said. When I looked I saw Emily. "Please get down," Emily said. "No, you are not my friend, I was told that you were just pretending to be my friend." I said. "they were lying, I am your friend. Would I have come down hear if I were not your friend. Please Casey get down." Emily said. Emily came closer to give me a hand down but as I was getting down I slipped off the bridge. Emily quickly grabbed me and said, "hold on. We will get you up." I started slipping then she took her other hand and held me with it. She said, "I will not let you go do not worry." Then I was slowly starting to move upward. The police officer and a few other people were trying to help Emily to pull me up. When I got up on to the bridge again I said thank you for saving me, I would of killed my self if you were not there to save me. My one and only best friend. thank you."
Emily and I are still the best of friends. We promised each other that we will never try to kill ourselves. To my kids I tell the story of what happened that day. I would not be hear if it were not for my one best friend.
the end
not a true story
