It started when Emily left the house. It was early, 3 maybe 4 in the morning, no one knows really. Not even Matt, who was in her bed. She got up, he awoke asked where she was going. “Just downstairs.” He fell back asleep. She left out the front door and got into her car. She drove to the town of Leven and she jumped into the Firth of Forth. Or, that is what is believed to be the case by Fife constabulary. Her car was found parked, still on. There was no note, but the headlights shinning on the Forth.
The second to take their life was Matt. Who after a night of drinking at Emily's procession, believed it was his fault Emily left the house, early in the morning, between 3 and 4. He left the procession and walked through the dark streets of Methil looking for anyone willing to cause him bodily harm, failing to find anyone Matt walked to the docks. He looked over the edge into the murky water, took a deep breath, said fuck it and stepped off.

The third, Frank, was out of boredom. He kicked a can down the street and reached an old antique store. He saw a old shotgun in the window for sale. He had an inner shrug and entered the store. He was found in the park across from the store, his skull missing half it's flesh and bone.
Jordan read in the paper that suicide rates had fallen that year. He didn't like this figure as it meant his friends who killed themselves, were negative statistics. He did not like this thought. He hanged himself from the ceiling fan. His housemate found him a day later. Sara, she took her life using pills and alcohol the day after the medics removed the body.
Ben couldn't get a hold of his friends via text, facebook or other forms of messaging. He eventually called Matt's parents. They told him that while he was in San Francisco Emily, Matt, Frank, Jordan and even Sara killed themselves. All within the 2 week period. Ben did not kill himself, Ben flew back to Scotland.
I like that I killed myself.
