Cards of Ace

Chapter 1

'A girl identified as Alice Kandelle Steel was found dead in a forest two months ago. When she was found her cause of death was unidentified but after an extensive autopsy, it has been confirmed that she committed suicide."

Bullshit, bullshit, bullshit.

I can't believe that they think she committed suicide. For some reason I think they are saying that becAuse when the police found her body, her eyes were removed from her their sockets and there was a lot of blood besieging her body.

When Ace was alive, most people thought she was depressed after she ended our friendship. After that she took a one-eighty degree change. She started sleeping around and thus had a reputation as a one of the school sluts.

To be honest, our breakup was because Alice insisted. She said that things were really awkward between us and our friendship didn't hold the spark it used to have. She claimed that she didn't want to be friends with someone who was so fake and clingy. She also said that I was lacking a lot of confidence and used her to obtain some. To be honest I couldn't see how I was clingy and fake since I also had other friends besides her.  Whatever. It was fucked up.

After that Ace drifted off to the cheerleaders. What's ironic is how Ace said that most of them were stupid ass bitches who weren't even good in their sport.

This one time at a football game at our school Ace said,

"Look at them running around with their pom poms, like we can't do that?"

"I know and everyone makes a such a huge deal about being a cheerleader," I said.

"I mean look at that pyramid shit. What's the point of that at a football game?"

"Imagine them on their pyramid falling all over the players. Talk about desperate ass bitches looking for action," I replied.

We thought about it for a moment and then started to laugh like crazy, until we were snorting and crying; just intensifying our laughing. We span around to see all the dirty looks around us.

We turned back around facing each other and started to fake fall on each other. Our laughter just wouldn't stop so we left the game.

That day was one of the best days of my life. With Ace, days like that happened a lot.

Ace just had a very bubbly personality once you got to know her. If you didn't know her you would think she is worst person in the world. Sometimes, Ace was just so lost in her own world that it was hard to tell if she actually enjoyed your company.

School that day was crap. Everyone looked at me with sympathy considering the autopsy results were just aired this morning. When I tried talking to my friends, they just brushed me off claiming they had things to do.

When I asked Buttercup if anything was wrong she said "I'm not sure if I want to be friends with you anymore. It's just... you're a nice person but you're so closed off it's like I'm talking to a robot, and I don't want that. Well I guess I'll see you around."

Slowly throughout the day, that happened with all of my friends. I guess tomorrow I would be friendless. It would be hard to make friends this late in the school year, so I decide against it as I would be going off to college next year anyways.

After an irritating day at school I decided to go to Ace's house. I'm not sure what led me there, but I still went there anyways. As I was making my way towards the door, I was thinking of turning back but Mrs Steele was gardening in the yard.
