Ellie's Point of View

I CAN'T THINK!!

It's almost the day of Nicole's funeral and I can't think of a speech to write. I'm so bad at these kind of things!

I want this speech to be perfect 'cause she's the best friend I've ever had.

Funeral speeches are so damn hard.

I don't understand why funeral has the word 'fun' in it. Funerals aren't fun, they're sad. Who made up the word 'funeral' anyways?

We will never know.

Back to reality:

UGH! STUPID FUNERAL SPEECH!!

Should I just search funeral speeches online?...

NO!

Ellie, you want this funeral speech to be unique!

ORIGINAL!!

I can't write without tearing up a bit! Whenever I think about Nicole, I cry a little bit.

I pick up the pen one more time and I begin to write...

I was Nicole's best friend. She was the best friend you could ever ask for! We've had our ups and downs but we would never ever stay mad at eachother for long. She was kind, caring and she was always there for me. Not once she left me on my own.

I remember one day I came to school and I couldn't find her anywhere, I checked in the bathroom. I saw her sitting in the corner of the girls bathroom curled up in a ball. She was crying. She was crying because she thought she wasn't good enough for anyone and  she was crying because...

I felt my eyelids get heavy and I dropped the pen. I fell into a dreamless sleep.

-The Day of The Funeral-

"Today is the day, today is the day" I repeat as I walk up and down my room. "Ellie, why are you so worried? It's not like you're getting married or anything" Zayn says. "I'm not worried" I lie.

Okay, maybe I am worried. I just can't speak in front of crowds, I feel selfconcoius when I stand in front of people. It feels like they're judging me... with their eyes.

"Yes you are" Zayn laughs. "Yes, I am" I state.

"Why?" Liam asks. "Well one, it's gonna be the last time I'm ever gonna see Nicole and two, I don't speak in front of people" I state looking down.

"You're speaking in front of people" Louis states in a 'duh' tone. "I meant crowds" I state.

"Just don't think about it" Harry says. "Yeah, I'll try" I smile.

I'm mentally hyperventilating!

Help!

God!

I!

Can't!

Do!

This!

Anymore!

"Ellie, calm down" Niall laughs. "Were you reading my mind..." I trail off. "No" Niall laughs, "You said all that out loud!".

Ugh! I face palm myself, Why am I so stupid? "I dunno" Louis smirks. I've gotta stop speaking my thoughts out loud. "Yeah, you really should" Liam laughs.

OHMERGERD!!!!

"I can't control it!" I laugh. All the boys laugh aswell.

"I better get dressed now" I say as I get up. "Okay" The boys say in unison. They all just sit on my bed staring at their phones. "Are you gonna leave?" I ask. "No, you get dressed somewhere else" Harry says. "Don't you guys have to change?" I ask. "Oh yeah" They all say.

The boys leave my house, I run up the stairs and I change into a black skater skirt, a black button up shirt and black converse.

I tuck the black shirt into my skirt. I know this is not very presentable but Nicole would wear the same if it was my funeral.

Nicole's Point of View

Yeah, I really would wear the same.

Ellie's Point of View

I grab my speech and I make my way to Niall's house.

------

Abbey finishes talking about Nicole. It's my turn to come up.

Breath Ellie.

Breath.

I walk up with my speech. I clear my throat.

Okay Ellie! It's time!

"I was Nicole's best friend, in fact, I still am. I know she's gone but that doesn't change anything. Nicole was the best friend you could ever ask for! Yeah, we've had our ups and downs but we would never stay mad at eachother for long. Nicole was kind, caring and she was always there for me. Not once she left me alone" I start.

I look over at Niall, he's smiling and he gives me thumbs up.

"I remember one day I came to school and I couldn't find her anywhere. I checked in the bathroom, I saw her sitting in the corner of the bathroom curled up in a ball. She was crying. Nicole was crying because she thought she wasn't good enough for anyone and she was crying because of her brother. She was very emotional that day" I continue.

"Anyways back to how she died. Nicole used to get bullied. Why should such a beautiful, kind girl like Nicole get bullied? She decided to commit suicide... She jumped out her bathroom window" I began to tear up. Nooo! Don't cry!

"The doctor told us she was in a coma, about a month later... she was gone. It was like we only met yesterday and just like that, she disappeared. I will never forget Nicole, she was there for me through every event in my life" I say.

"I love you Nicole..." I whisper and I walk back to my seat. Everyone claps and we continue the ceremony.
