chapter 12

Alicia's pov: Today was a sad day. My friend, audrianna had died of suicide and today was her funeral. I pulled out a black dress I haven't worn in awhile that was tucked away in the back of my closet. I changed into it and continued getting ready. " Alicia it's time to go were going to be late!" My grandmother called up the stairs to me. I got my new black high heels on that I got over the Christmas break. ' I wondered when these would come in handy.' I carefully walked down the stairs, making sure I didn't miss any steps. I went into the garage and open the door of the car and got in. The car started driving and before I knew it I was at the funeral home. My grandfather parked the car and I took a deep breath from my seat and reached for the door handle. The door made a creaking sound as it opened. I got out, one foot after the other. I walked to the door and held it for my grandparents. When I walked inside the place was crowded of family and almost eveyone from school... everyone but hunter. I saw earlier when I was eating breakfast that he also died of suicide. I wasn't expecting that to happen, gavin must be devastated. 'I hope hunter didn't kill himself because of audrianna.' I walked around trying to find destiny. I couldn't find her so I decided to go to the bathroom to get some peace and quiet from all this noice and chaos. I opened up the bathroom door to see destiny on the floor crying. " oh no, what's wrong. I know you feel bad about audrianna but you shouldn't cry about it." I say worried. " no its not that, well ofcourse I'm sad that audrianna died and I do feel bad about it but that's not why I'm crying." She replied. I say even more worried now, " Then what's wrong, why are you creating a flood of tears? What happened?" Destiny took a deep breath and said, " Alicia, hunter didn't die of suicide. He kidnapped me yesterday after school, at me and gavins date while gavin was in the bathroom. Gavin came to save me and pushed him out the window and murdered him. Then I wrote up a suicide letter... I know they weren't friends anymore but gavin shouldn't be happy he murdered someone. " I looked at her with blank emotion... I couldn't find any words to say, I tried to speak but nothing came out. Destiny said, " Alicia I know your probably mad and I'm sorry, you could be mad, I helped murder someone and then I helped cover it up. I'm sorry but please don't go and tell the police about it the Romeo and juliet situation. If I go to jail I will never have a life with gavin. I might even be hung at the stake or a tree and burned to death if you tell." I said, " Destiny I won't tell, I never said I would. I'm not mad, I'm glad you told me. Hunter was being evil he deserved it. You told me what he did in the bathroom yesterday. He deserved to die so don't worry about it. If gavin hadn't killed him I might have." I finished my words and shrugged at her. Destiny smiled at me. I pulled her good wrist and helped her stand up from the floor. I lead her out of the bathroom. As both me and destiny were talking and giggling, molly came out of nowhere and ran into both of us and said, " oh no I'm so sorry I wasn't watching where I was going! Please don't hate me!" Destiny rolled her eyes and I said, " it's ok it wasn't your fault me and destiny weren't watching where we were going either." Molly smiled and said, " hey destiny I get your angry with me but I apologize from gym today and everything I did to you. Im really not that bad of a person. Maybe if you got to know me better you would understand that?" I looked over at destiny and stared her in the eyes with the " don't mess this up" look. " well... I guess we could give our friendship a try..." Destiny said unwillingly. The actually funeral finally started and everyone all took their seats. The whole room was filled with crys and whimpers. Tissues falling all over the floor. We barried audrianna and wished her a farewell, hoping she makes it safe to the after life. Eveyone left and I was back at home. My grandmother was sitting on the chair when she got a call from an unknown number. My grandmother picked up the phone and the person across the other line asked for me. My grandmother handed me the phone with a confused looked. I shrugged my shoulders at her and said hello. It was audriannas parents telling me I needed to go to their house and they gave me the address. I hung up the phone and told my grandmother about it. She had my grandfather drop me off at their house. I walked up their pavement of sidewalk to their door. I reluctantly knocked, wondering what would happen when someone answered. I heard footsteps and saw the door open to Audrianna's mom. She told me to come in and asked me if I knew anything going on in Audrianna's life. I was confused and said no. We talked for a few hours and something seemed fishy about her as she told me what she knew. It seemed like she was telling me lie after lie after lie. I heard my grandfather pull up outside and I told mrs Webber I had to go. When I was waking towards the outside door I bumped into a random chair out in the open and a white purse that was hung to the chair arm fell to the ground with a book and a lock with a key fell out. ' what's this?' I grabbed the book and I saw a giant A initial on it. I realized it was Audrianna's diary. I quietly picked it up and put it back in the purse and I took it with me. It's almost like audrianna did this on purpose. I put the purse over my shoulder and walked out the door to my car. My grandfather was confused where the purse came from and I just said I had it hidden under my coat when I came here. When I got home I ran to my room. I unlocked the diary and started to read it. I got to about the 10th page when my jaw dropped. It was about her secret. I started flipping through the other pages. When I got to the most recent page my heart broke in two. It was Audrianna's day yesterday. All of it. The thing that broke the most was she wanted to apologize to me from the bathroom but she couldn't. Signed at the very bottom of the page there was a mini letter written to me. She did do this on purpose. She wanted me to find this diary. " This is all proof. I need to get this to the police. " I told my grandmother I needed to get to the police station and I was taken there with no questions ask and I gave the book to the sherif. That afternoon, the whole Webber family was arrested for many reasons, her secret finally got out to the public. Something she never wanted to happen when she was alive.
