But anyways, Melissa and I decided to go with the guys to their house. Brian had drove AJ and himself to the club and I had drove Melissa and I.
So, I was taking AJ in my car and Brian was taking Melissa. While AJ and I were driving to the house, we decided to go the long way. While we were going through a green light, someone decided to turn right in front of us. My car went right into the side of that car. My door had come open. I flew out of the car and hit the pavement. Then I blacked out.
When I woke up, I was in a white room. I didn't know where I was. Until a doctor walked in. He saw that I was awake and smiled. He told me that I had hit my head on the pavement hard, but I would probably be fine.
Then I remembered AJ. He said that AJ had a broken arm and wrist. Also, he had hit his head pretty hard on the dash board. But he should be fine. I was really glad to hear that. I asked if they had called Melissa.
"Yes! She is in the waiting room!"
"Can I see her please??"
"Yes you may!" the doctor said,walked out, and sent Melissa in. Melissa came running over to me, crying.
"What happened??" she asked. I told her the whole story.
"Have you seen AJ??"
"No I haven't and neither has Brian."
That night, I finally convinced Melissa to go home and so, her and Brian went to our house. I snuck out of my room to find AJ. My head hurt really bad, but I ignored it.
I finally found his room and went in and stood beside him. I looked at him and it didn't even look like him. His face was all scratched and bruised. I picked up his hand and held it against my cheek. I felt a tear trickle down my cheek and it fell down his hand. His fingers moved and I looked at him. He opened his eyes and we stared at each other.
Tears started flowing; they were dripping off my chin. I spoke out, softly
"Oh AJ! I'm so sorry!!"
He smiled at me and I could see tears in his eyes.
"It's alright! It wasn't your fault!" he said in a whisper.
More tears started flowing down my cheeks. I layed his hand back on the bed. I looked at him and saw tears going down his cheeks. By this time, my head hurt really bad. It hurt so bad, my head was pounding. But I didn't want to leave AJ. So, I pulled up the chair and sat down. I tried my best to smile, but with all the tears it was hard. I picked AJ's hand up and kissed it. I asked him if it would be alright if I hugged him. He shook his head yes and I stood up. I bent over him and carefully put my arms around him. I hugged him and I could feel him put his hand on my back.
I started crying more. We hugged and then after awhile, he went limp. I knew what had happened. He had died in my arms.
This made me cry really hard. I stood back up and picked up his hand. I saw all of his rings and took one of them off and put it on my thumb. I then kissed his cheek and turned to go out of the room. I started running, but it was blurry from the tears. I ran around one of the corners and ran into a table. I fell and hit my head really hard on the floor. I whispered
"I'll miss everyone!" and blacked out. I had died.
(Melissa's view)
It was August 14, 1999. I was standing at the casket, crying my eyes out. Lorie had died 4 days ago, at the hospital, and I hadn't been there with her. I started crying really, really hard. I missed Lorie so much. I missed AJ too, even if I didn't know him that well.
But Lorie was like a sister to me. I loved her so much!! It only felt like yesterday that we were walking through the mall, checking out all the guys. And now......and now she was gone.
(Lorie's room)
I had woke up in a strange place. I looked around and there stood AJ. I also noticed that I saw all my friends and family. Then I realized where I was. I was at the grave yard. I walked over to the crowd and then I realized who they were burying. It was me!! I looked back and saw AJ walking to me. He walked beside me and wrapped his arms around me. He said
"You are here to say good-bye!"
I looked at him, with tear filled eyes and nodded. I walked over to my mom and dad, who were hugging and crying. I said
"I love you so much! Even if it didn't seem like it at times! I love you both so much and will miss you!! Bye mom and dad!!" and blew them a kiss.
Then I walked over to Melissa and said.
"Melissa, you don't know how much I care about you!! You and I have been through thick and thin. I am going to miss you so much sister!!!! I love you Melon!! Bye!"
I then blew her a kiss and blew Brian a kiss. Then I walked back over to AJ. We started walking towards a bright light, but I stopped. I turned around and looked at everyone.
"Don't forget me!!" I whispered.
Then AJ and I walked into the light.
