Plot~ Taylor's pov, an unexpected guest arrives at Hayley's funeral

What a twisted mind, kill a girl for no reason.
I wiped the tears from my eyes, standing to my feet and walking around to of corse consult and stop my tears from falling.

My best friend. Gone.

"Taylor" a voice called to me, I spun around composing myself to look up and see his face.
"You came?" I questioned looking at his mid lengthen brown hair and dark eyes.
"You thought I wouldn't?" He questioned, his oh so familiar expression paining me and making me want to barf all over his well pressed suit.

I glanced around, catching sight of chad with Hayley's mom, comforting her.
"I'm surprised you made it past Christie" I gestured to her weeping in the corner.
"Yeah well she's too busy moping, she wouldn't notice me anyway. I never was that noticeable" he reasoned with a shrug.
"Hey, don't come here and make this all about you, you lost your chance buddy. She's gone have a little respect because if she were here she would sock you in the balls" I whisper-yelled to him with venom in my tone, "which by the way you've got a lot of because if chad sees you he's going to make sure you're the next one in the casket"

He looked at me with a sorry look and shook his head.
"I knew it was a bad idea to come here, I just wanted to...pay my respects"
"Well I think she would have liked it if you respected her and stayed away from the people she loves"
"I think you're forgetting she used to love me too" he shouted now, everyone turning and looking at us.

My eyes catching Jeremy's confused face.
"Used to Josh, you don't belong here" I looked at him, if it were a regular day I wouldn't have the guts to say any of this, but I was doing this for Hayley.
My angel.
This is what she'd want.

"None of us belong here, she doesn't belong here" he yelled pointing to the casket.
My eyes began to water.
"Get out Josh" I whispered, looking down to the ground.

He stood in front of me silent.
"Get out" I shouted, tears falling from my eyes, "get out Joshua farro I swear to god if you don't get out"

"I'm not leaving, I'm here for Hayley I'm not leaving her"
"That's not what you said when you left in the first place"
"It was for the best, it was so she could be happy, so she could go on and not live with the burden of m-" he stopped his eyes glancing around at the crowd that was watching us, "I don't  have to explain anything to you Taylor you wouldn't get it"

"You're an asshole, you know that? Hayley doesn't want you here, no one wants you here. What's it gonna take for you to get that through your god damned head" I now calmed down and lowered my voice.

Although it was still silent, so you could still hear me.
"I just want to be here, for her"
"Do you know how many times you weren't there for her? When she needed you the most, you're so fucking oblivious"
"That's not my problem"

I tried to inhale and exhale but instead my fist flew through the air and hit him in the cheek.
"Get out of here before I call the police" I shouted to him as he held his face in his hands.

"Fuck you, you don't understand what Hayley means to me"

I shook my head and watched as he walked out.
Leaving me alone in the center of a circle, all eyes on me.
"I'm sorry everyone"
Chad approached me, embracing me into a hug.
"Thank You man, I knew she would have done the same"
