I cried writing this chapter...
Brooke and I decide to the most of these next three hours. For the first hour, Paige gets to choose what we do. She decides that we will watch The Hunger Games extras . We all laugh at Jeniffer Lawrence kicking Josh Hutcherson in the head. It reminds me of how we used to be. The best of friends, comforting each other when we're sad. Now...What will happen?
For my hour , we have 'Spa Time' . We do each others nails , hair , and makeup. Well, Paige doesn't have hair , so Kelly bought her a pink curly wig. She laughs at the wig. She says that she looks like Effie Trinket. I smile , and remember her blonde hair. Her blue eyes have faded. They're more like a very dull blue. Her smile is weak, too. She's not looking so great. But, she is still the beautiful Paige.
For the last , and Brooke's hour , we make videos for Youtube. The fans will enjoy this , as will we. First , Brooke tweets asking her fans what questions they want answered. Most of them are about how Paige is doing , or when Dance Moms will be back on. So, that's what we make the first video about. We called it , "Q&A with Paigey , Brookie , and Chlobird". We tell the fans what is wrong with Paige, and why she hasn't been Instagramming.
When the video is posted, we receive a few negative comments. But after those, we are swarmed with comments saying , 'Stay strong , Paigey-Mack!" But one girls post makes a difference. It's a link taking us to a picture she had tweeted to Kelly a while back. It's a picture that has Paige on it, and it has the lyrics to 'Wanted' by Rachel Diggs. She linked all of the her accounts on it. I immediately made Brooke , and I follow every single one of them. Paige did , too. It made her feel special.
It's the last fifteen minutes of Paige's life on earth. All of the other girls are here, too. They're hugging her , and telling her how much they love her. Paige always seems to aim her eyes at me. She smiles , and blinks a little. Our secret signal for 'I love you'. The girls take their final pictures with her, and we all have to step out of the room , so that Kelly and Brooke can talk to her. The girls hold their phones ready to hit send to Instagram, once Paige has passed.
It's quite nice of them , actually. Their doing this to make Paige feel important , in remembrance of her. Even Payton is doing all of this. Cathy , and her whole team is. We all want Paige to be remembered. I'm assuming that Abby might have a whole week of dance dedicated to her. That would be nice ,too.
"Chloe , do you want to say your final goodbyes to Paige?" Kelly asks me. I nod , and walk into Paige's hospital room. She looks worse than ever. Her skin is like snow , and her eyes barely have any color to them. I hug her very tight, not wanting to let go of my best friends life. "Twinnies Forever" she says with her last breath. I let me tears roll down my cheeks. "Twinnies Forever..." I kiss her cheek and whisper.
"She's gone!" I shout , and run out of the room. I start crying even harder. She's gone...She's really gone! I can't believe it! My sister is gone, forever. She's never coming back. The girls send their pictures and hug me.
We're having a sleep-over at the Hyland's house in memory Paige. I know it won't be the same without my Paige there ; but I'll make the most of it. I just keep on replaying the exact moment of her death. I actually saw her die! Her last breath , she squeezed her necklace. She used her last breath to talk to me.
"Why?!?!?!" I think out loud on the car ride to the Hyland's. "Why couldn't it have been me?! Paige never did anything..." Clara tries to calm me down with continuous hugs and shh's. I grab me phone out of my pocket and take a picture of myself, with tears and all. I post it on Instagram , with the caption,"Today, cancer took the life of my Twinny 'Paige'. She was an adorable , nice , pretty girl. She never did anything to harm anybody. She didn't deserve this. But, it happened. And , I guess, the only thing we can do is cherish her memory. R.I.P Paige. I love you to the moon and back @paigehyland1"
