H: oh erm last night dad got into a accident and I'm sorry sweetie but he didn't make it

D: w-what

H: I'm so sorry sweetie I love you so much

D: I love you to mom

~end of call~

I sit there and just cry Bryce and Charli come down and hug me Charli crys even more than I am Bryce tells us that he's going to fly back to la and look after our mom but he wants us to stay here and finish the vacation Bryce goes upstairs and packs his bags ready for tomorrow I couldn't imagine going through this I thought it would be so much easier I know it's sad to say but I just thought you would cry for a while but now that it has actually happened I feel like there's no point of living anymore I do suffer with anxiety and depression but it got a lot better until now I feel it all coming back I run into the restroom and cry I lock the door,Bryce takes Charli upstairs with him and I must of woken Noah up as doing so

N: bub?

I cry even harder how was I supposed to tell Noah all of this

N: bub we're are you

D: I-in the r-restroom

Noah pov:
Dixie is in the restroom crying I try the door but she has locked it so I sit outside the restroom asking her what's wrong

N: bub what's wrong you know you can tell me anything

D: my mom j-just told us that my d-dad passed away last night after being in a a-accident

N: Baby I'm so sorry

I get teary from not only hearing Dixie crying but from the terrible news Marc was like a second father to me I loved that man so much and forever will

D: I-I don't think I can do it anymore Noah

This is we're I started to panic Dixie has Always suffered with anxiety and depression but it got way better over the years now it's all coming back

N: Dix don't say that you are so strong and I know you can do it you have me Bryce your mom all the others to help you through this

D: no you don't understand Noah

N: I do Dix I honestly do and I want to help you so please open the door

D: I-I don't want to

I sit outside the door and I try to take her mind of it by telling our child hood storys

N: bub do you remember that time in the last year of middle school when your dad got mad at me for being in your room shirtless playing video games

I hear her cry a little more but giggle a little at the same time so I decide to tell the full story

N: well I remember like it was just yesterday, it was a Friday when Bryce went to a campsite for the weekend so our parents said we could have a sleepover so I decided to bring my Xbox over and we were so excited all day and at around 2pm I had soccer practice And my mom invited you to come and watch and of course you agreed and came we sat and watched I-Carly the whole way there after my soccer practice had finished I was so sweaty and hot from running around so we both begged my mom for ice cream while walking of the field she said yes to ice cream so we did our normal thing of racing back to the car to see who got front seat first

I hear Dixie giggle a little more so I continue the story

N: and of course every time you won because I was so tired from practice that you were always faster than me and as usual we got in and my mom drove a different way home that one time and she took us to the best ice cream place we have ever been to we still go there now and we ordered our usual and we finished I-Carly on the way home after we ate our ice cream and we arrived back at yours we walked In and went upstairs and I took my shirt of and we played Xbox for a while when your dad came home from work and walked in your room and asked why I haven't got a shirt on we both looked at each other and laughed and you said dad chill he just had soccer practice it's no big deal And you pushed your dad out the room and he said that he didn't want no funky business happening and we both laughed and from then on out your dad would Always make sure We did nothing together without him there Until half way through high school and he started to trusting me again and we both didn't know why having my shirt of was a big deal and erm he never got to tell us but at least we can tell this story and still be confused and laugh every time

After about an hour of telling that story dixie unlocks the door and throws her self at me and crys

D: I love you Noah thank you for being here with me now and thanks for the story recap

N: anytime bub

I carry Dixie back onto the couch and sit with her when Charli comes down stairs so I tell Charli to sit with me to

N: come on char

I pat the sofa for her to come Charli sits down next to me and I give her a hug and ask if she's ok which I know she's not but I just wanted to ask, everyone else comes down and chase comes and gives Charli a hug my heart breaks for these girls they are so strong I look over at Dixie and she's still crying I pull her closer to me and wipe her tears with my thumb and kiss her head she just sits there staring into the distance while tears just roll down her Cheeks at this point I couldn't help but cry my self I rest my chin on top of her head and tell her how much I love

N: I love you so much

D: I love you much more
