Jenny was so happy about the house they had found. For once in her life, it was on the right side of town. She unpacked her things with such great ease, as she watched her new curtains blow in the breeze. How wonderful it was to have her own room. School would be starting; She'd have friends over soon. There'd be sleepovers and parties. She was so happy, its everything she ever wanted. On the first day of school, everything went great. She made new friends and even got a date! She thought, " I want to be popular and im going to be, because I just got a date with the star of the team!" To be known in this school you have to be popular and dating this guy would sure help her out.
There was only one problem stopping her fate. Her parents had said she was too young to date. " Well I just wont tell them the entire truth. They won't know the difference; Whats there to lose?" Jenny asked to stay with her friends that night. Her parents frowned but said "All right." Excited, she got ready for the special night. But as she rushed around she began to feel guilty about all the lies, but whats a pizza, party, and moonlight ride?
Well the pizza was good, the party was great, but the moonlight ride would have to wait. For Dan was half drunk by this time. But he kissed her, and said he was just fine. Then the room filled with smoke and Dan took a puff. Jenny couldn't believe he was smoking that stuff. Now Dan was ready to ride, but only after he smoked another joint. They jumped into the car for the moonlight ride, not thinking he was too drunk to drive.
They finally made it to the point at last, and Dan started trying to make a pass. A pass is not what Jenny wanted at all. "Perhaps my parents are right.....maybe I am too young. Boy, how could I ever be so dumb?" With all of her might she pushed Dan away. " Please take me home I don't want to stay." Dan cranked up the engine and floored the gas. In a matter of seconds they were going to fast.
As Dan drove on in a fit of wild anger, Jenny knew that her life was in danger. She begged and pleaded for him to slow down, but he just went faster as they neared the town. " Just get me home!I'll confess that I lied. I really went out for a moonlight ride." Then all of the sudden, she saw a big flash. "Oh god, please help us! We're going to crash!
She doesn't remember the force of the impact. Just that everything all of the sudden went black. She felt someone remove her from the twisted rubble, and heard, " call an ambulance! These kids are in trouble!" Voices she heard...a few at best. But she knew there were two cars involved in the wreck. Then wondered to herself if Dan was alright and if the people in the other car were alive.
She awoke in the hospital to faces so sad. "You've been in a wreck and it looks pretty bad." These voices echoed inside her head, as they gently told her Dan was dead. They said " Jenny, we've done all we can do. but it looks as if we'll lose you too." " But the other people in the car!?" Jenny cried. "We're sorry, Jenny, they also are dead," Jenny prayed " God, forgive me for what I've done I only just wanted to have one night of fun." " Tell those people's family, I've made their loves dim, and I wish I could return their family's to them."
" Tell mom and dad im sorry I lied, and that it's my fault so many have died. Oh, nurse, won't you please tell them that for me?" The nurse just stood there, she never agreed. But took Jenny's hand with tears in here eyes. And a few moments later Jenny passed. A man asked the nurse, " Why didn't you do your best to bid that girl her one last request?" She looked at the man with eyes so sad. " Because the people in the other car were her mom and dad."
