Jojo's POV
I headed into the dollar store hoping I would find what I needed. I skimmed down each isle looking carefully until...YES! I found it! The little red book Maddie had asked me for. I wasn't sure why but she seemed over joyed when I gave it to her at dance. After dance I saw all the girls huddled up in the den apparently obsessing over he book I had bought for Maddie. I walked up to the girls and squirmed in between Kendall and Kalani to see what the fuss was about.
Jojo-"Hey guys what's going on?"
Maddie-"Thank you SO SO SO much Jojo for getting me this book!"
Jojo-"Um yeah sure but why do you need it?"
Mackenzie-"Uhhhh to write in yeah that's what it's for to write letters in!"
Jojo-" But can't you just do that on any old piece of paper?"
Nia-"Jojo you wouldn't understand"
Jojo-"How would I not understand?"
Kendall-"You just wouldn't ok?"
Jojo-"Guys what's going on here?"
All the girls exchanged uneasy looks. Finally Brynn broke the circle, took me by the hand, and led me into the bathroom.
Brynn-"Jojo none of our moms know about this yet but..but"
Jojo-"But what?"
Brynn took a deep breath and spilled.
Brynn-"We're all going to comit suicide"
Jojo-"WHAT ARE YOU ALL CRAZY!!!!!! YOU GUYS ARE MY ONLY FRIENDS HOW WOULD I LIVE WITHOUT YOU?!?!?!"
Brynn-"Jojo just calm down and listen to me. All of us have been living lives that you haven't known about. Painful lives. We've all formed a pact we call the red book pact. Maddie had you buy that book so that we could all write our suicide notes in it."
I broke into tears and stormed out of the bathroom. I ran up to Maddie and ripped the book out of her hands. I quickly grabbed my stuff and ran outside the ALDC. I heard the girls all rushing out after me screaming my name. I didn't stop running until I came to a creek I didn't even know existed in the woods surrounding the ALDC. I was about to throw the horrid red book into the creek to watch it float away but someone grabbed it before I could throw it.
It was Mackenzie. She and all the girls had followed me this far. I turned around to face them all.
Kalani-"Jojo please just let us escape these horrible lives we're all living."
Jojo-"NO I CANT!!!! I WONT!"
Brooke-"JOJO YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT WE'VE BEEN GOING THROUGH!!! JUST LET US DIE!!!!!!!!!"
Paige-"Please Jojo please just let us go..."
I collapsed on the ground sobbing. The girls all huddled around me hugging me and saying that they were all going to go to a better place. It in all honesty didn't make me feel any better.
Maddie-"We're starting tomorrow. Who's going first?"
Nia-"How about we just let Jojo decide since she's not joining us in the process?"
Jojo-"Your wrong Nia"
Nia-"What do you mean Jojo?"
Jojo-"If your all going...than I'm going to"
