Heartbeat - Part 8
Adelaide's POV:
I took his hand and took a deep breath, I hoped that I had made the right decision. Me and Justin made slowly our way to the others.
David: * shocked * Adelaide, is that you
Adelaide: * looks down * yeah it's me
David: umm...I guess you're not here to forgive us right
Adelaide: * nods * yeah but there is something else
Hailey: * sighs * oh I think I know that
Shawn: it's about Selena, right
Adelaide: you're right
Ryan: * looks at his friends/worried *
Jaden: Selena is in the hospital, Adelaide
Adelaide: * shocked * WHAT!!!why
David: * takes a deep breath * Adelaide, they found out that Selena has...LeukemiaWhen he said those words I sank to the ground and started crying hysterically...this was all my fault.
Justin: * wipes her tears * shhh Adelaide please don't cry
But as hard as he tried to comfort me i couldn't stop crying, the only thing that was on my mind was I had to see her.
Adelaide: can we go to the hospital, Justin
Justin: * worried * you sure about that
Adelaide: yeah...I wanna see herFew weeks later
I couldn't believe it...my best friend...why her...all the times we visited her she said " no Adelaide it's not your fault, don't blame yourself for it " but still I felt so guilty about it. No i felt horrible and now I'm here at the funeral of my best friend...Justin, holding my hand tightly. I knew a few more moments and I would break down.
Justin: * worried * Adelaide we can go if you want to, you don't have to do this
Adelaide: no Justin, I need to be strong now for herAt this moment I had completely forgotten that she was one of them who lied to me about my heart defect, it didn't matter anymore. The point was: my best friend was dead now and i couldn't even tell her that she was forgiven. It was my turn now to go to her casket and to say my last goodbyes...oh god.
Justin: you want me to come with you
Adelaide: would you do that
Justin: * grabs her hand * sure don't worry I'm here with youSlowly we made our way to Selena's casket, i didn't let go of Justin's hand...not only one second.
Adelaide: * gets tears in her eyes * I know you are in a better place now but still you didn't deserve to die, I will never forget you Selena...never...if you can hear me from heaven then you know now that I forgive you for what you did
* touches her hand * goodbye SelenaThis was the moment when I broke down and started crying hysterically. Justin picked me up and brought me home, he stayed with me the whole night only to comfort me.
One month later
One month left since Selena died, I wasn't really over it but I knew that she would never come back so I guess I just had to let her go. I was now living home again because I didn't only forgave Selena, I also forgave my parents, my brothers and my other friends. Justin was at my house every day, he was so caring and the sweetest guy I've ever met. With Justin and me in my room now:
Justin: so Adelaide, I was wondering if maybe you would like to go out with me
Adelaide: * smile's * I would love to Justin
Justin: perfect so I guess I'll pick you up at 7 tomorrow evening
Adelaide: sureThe next day
Since Selena's death, me and Hailey became really good friends. I knew she couldn't replace her but she helped me a lot through: for example with picking an outfit for my first date with Justin.
Hailey: so Adelaide, already excited
Adelaide: yeah very
Hailey: I knew one day he would ask you out and this day has come now
Adelaide: * giggles * yeah Hailey I understand just help me now to pick an outfit
Hailey: * rolls her eyes playfully * sure, sureWe picked an outfit, made my make up and my hair
Hailey: you look amazing, Adelaide
Adelaide: thanks Hailey( this is what she and Justin are wearing for the date lol )
Hailey: well Justin will be here any minute so I guess I'll leave you alone
Adelaide: okay thanks for helping me
Hailey: no problem Adelaide, see you at school tomorrow * leaves *A few minutes later, it was 7 now...the doorbell rang and I opened the door.
Justin: * smile's * hey Adelaide
Adelaide: * smile's back * hey Justin
Justin: here this is for youHe gave me a beautiful red rose
Adelaide: * blushes * thank you Justin
Justin: * smile's * everything for you
Adelaide: * smile's back *
Justin: ready to go
Adelaide: * nods *That was chapter eight of Heartbeat
