It was late at night on Christmas eve, and the boys and I were discussing how Harry could possible lure a bear out of a cave. I was just plainly spooked.
"And...they ran past us, screaming like a bunch of girls." said Niall.
"Um, I you haven't noticed, I AM a girl." I said.
"But still." Niall added.
Suddenly my phone rang.
"Hold on, it's my mom. She probably wants to wish me a happy Christmas eve."
"Or yell at you to go to bed." Said Liam, remembering that day.
I giggled. "Hello?" I asked. I walked into the bathroom.
"Hello, dear." said mom. "I first wanted to tell you, Merry Christmas."
"You too, but you know, in about 12 hours." I said back.
"Yes. Well, sweetheart, I've got some really important news for you."
"Ok." I said, my heart beating a bit faster.
Mom went silent.
"Mom?" I asked, a moment later. I heard crying. Oh no. This couldn't be good.
"Is...is everything ok?" I asked, nervous. Whenever moms cry, it means business.
"It's...it's...it's your sister."
"McKenzie?!" I asked.
"No, Shelby." she said, softly.
"What happened?!" I cried.
"She...she..."
"Mom!"
"She went to get a Monster drink, you know, those stupid energy juices, and she drank the entire can and-"
I started breathing heavily.
"-and she went to get another one and she...she...she..."
"She what?!" I cried, on the brink of tears.
Mom began sobbing.
"MOM!" I cried. Suddenly, I heard a man's voice- dad's. He picked up the phone.
"Hayley?" Dad said.
"Yes?" I squeaked.
"Shelby is dead."
