"You know, he is going to ask me, and I am going to go, 'Oh yeah baby!'! I am going to marry him, and become THE misses "Kevin Richardson". That will be my title." Alexis said, everyone still glued to the movie.
"PHONE!" Nick screamed, from the background in the movie.
"Who is it?" Alexis hollored back. "IS IT FOR ME?"
"I have no clue who it is! Wait...I'll ask." Nick said.
"You just do that." Alexis said, saying it with all dignity.
"They hung up." Nick said.
"Apparently it wasn't for me. No one in their right MIND would hang up, especially, on me." Danielle said. "Whatever." Nick said. "WHATever."
"Guys," AJ said, making everyone look from the movie.
"Bye!" Alexis said, kissing the camera, standing up, and pulling the plug.
"What?" Nick said. "It was..." AJ said.
"What was that for? To make me go delusional?" Kevin said, literally picking the computer up, and heaving it to the other side, smashing into the portrait of Alexis standing proud by Kevin.
Kevin drops to his knees, and sluggishly crawls to the broken glass on the floor. He clawed at the pieces, picking them up, slowly, carefully, gently.
"Why did it have to be you? There are thousands out there that could've died, and didn't. You could've been saved...couldn't have you? Did it have to be you?"
Danielle, sobbing vigorously, ran straight over to Kevin, holding him tighter than she has held anyone before. She couldn't let him go, no, not now.
"Don't you start blaming things on people now. Nothing had to do with anyone. She should've been paying attention to where she was going, yes. You have to remember one thing now, although she's gone, her spirit is still with us. She is never gone, she never has been, never will be, never can be!" Danielle said. "But she's not here," Kevin said, through clenched teeth.
"Guys, honestly...do you think that she would WANT you to do this? How do you think that she would want you to react to this? Not like this! I hardly doubt that she would want you to do this!" Howie hollored, tears rolling down his face. "It's sad, and this is no way to handle it! She is somewhere other than here, but I can bet you all the marbles in the world, that she would NOT want you to do this!"
Jennifer just held onto Nick, not wanting to let him go, not wanting to look back on anything, not wanting to know what the future may bring, not wanting to hear this...not wanting to hardly breathe.
v "Is it me, or is it getting stuffy in here?" Jennifer said, holding Nick so tight. "I haven't a clue..." AJ said. "I don't know what is going on. I don't know what to do...to say, to hear, to block..."
Danielle, trying to quickly change the subject, said: "So, who was that on the phone?"
