the boys all walked up the casket. they tried their best to hold their bravest faces. they've never met celeste, but they all had gotten attached to her in some way. 

even though the letters say they're from louis, the boys all wrote them. they took turns. they each just wrote louis' name down, since she had said he was her favorite. 

they just wanted to make someone happy. 

maybe save a life. 

but they had failed, and it was crushing them each deeply. 

they each knew stuff about celeste that the others didn't. 

harry was the one who got the letter with her picture. he never showed the boys except zayn. 

zayn was the one who told her that she was unhealthy. that he could see her bones. 

niall was the one who told it'd be better if she got help. 

liam was the one who knew she was with her dad. how she was scared of him. 

louis was the one who got her suicide letter. 

and as the boys stood there in front of the casket, the tears making their way down their cheeks, they all wished they had spent a little more time actually trying for learning about the way she feels.
