5:30 finally arrived, I finished setting the dinner table when I heard the doorbell ring. I quickly ran to it and opened it. "Penny!" I squealed. I quickly gave her a hug. "Hi Zander" I beamed as I gave him a hug. "Come in" I said. We all walked to the table and sat down. "So how-" I was beginning to say before I was cut off by the doorbell. I walked to it and opened it. "Hi Jess!" I beamed as I hugged her. "Ryan!" I squealed, hugging him. I led them to the table and we sat down. "So how have you all been" I asked. Everyone replied saying they've been Good, they told me about jobs they have gotten too. "So dove, me and Zander decided to buy the house next door!" Penny said with a smile. "OMG! That's so great!" I shouted. "Oh and me and Ryan made and offer to the Jenkins family, the ones who live on the opposite side of you and they simply couldn't turn it down, so we're moving in!" Jess beamed. "Yay! That's amazing!" I said. "Now uh, me and Harvey have some news as well" I began to say. Everyone looked at me. I glanced over at Harvey and he nodded. "I'm pregnant!" I said. Everyone gasped which eventually turned into squeals. "Wow, pregnant at 24, you rebel" Ryan laughed. I giggled and took another bite of my spaghetti. "So, any names" penny asked. "Uh no not yet, I mean, this just happened. I've only known for a couple of days" I laughed. We all had a good time for the rest of the night, and finally went to bed.
------3 weeks later---------
I felt my phone buzzing in my pocket, I answered the call.
Me: "hello?"
Max: "hey dove! I'm coming to visit"
Me: "that's wonderful! When do you arrive?"
Max: "at 5:00pm today"
I pulled the phone away from my ear to check the time. 11:59am
Me: "I'll see you then"
Max: "okay, bye"
I put my phone away and waited for 5 to come around. When 4:30 rolled around I figured I would wait for max at the airport. Harvey and I drove over and sat in the chairs. I waited... 4:50... 5:00.... 5:30... I decided to look at the boards. I looked for flight 32A but I couldn't find it. 31A, 33A, 34A. Hmm, I walked hand in hand with Harvey to the front desk. "Excuse me ma'am" I said to a lady who looked no older than me, she's probably 24. "How can I help you" she asked with a smile. "Uh yeah when will flight 32A be arriving" I asked. She sighed, "I'm sorry ma'am but that's classified" she replied. "Please... my best friend was on that flight" I begged. I was beginning to feel that there was something wrong. She had deep sorrow in her eyes. "Okay" she whispered. "Flight 32A crashed in Tennessee" she said. My heart dropped, I let go of Harvey's hand and stepped back. Harvey looked crushed too. He pulled me into a tight hug. "It's okay it's okay" he said trying not to cry. Tears burned my eyes. "I'm so sorry" the woman said. "Thank you" I whispered, turning away and walking to the exit. I ran around to the side of the airport and dropped to my knees. Harvey put his hands under my chin and lifted, making me look him in the eye. His eyed were red, cheeks tear- stained. "We will pull through. Stay strong, stress isn't good for you. Please" he begged. I stood up and threw my arms around him. "This cannot be happening" I sniffled. I've known Max for almost 23 years.. I never imagined this would happen. My world seemed to blur away as I thought about everything we've ever done together.
----------------
I slipped out of my thoughts, realizing I was home. I layed back on the couch and pulled the blanket to my chin. I soon fell asleep. I woke to a loud ringing noise. In a daze, I sat up. I walked to the phone and answered it
?: "hello is this Harvey mills? This is chief Randal of the BPD"
Me: "no I'm sorry he's out. This is his fiance can I take a message?"
?: "ah fiance, good. Do you know of a Max mills?"
Me: "...yes, I do"
?: "were you aware that his flight crashed only hours ago?"
Me: "yes sir, I'm aware"
?: "we would like to inform you that Max survived the crash... he was the only survivor ma'am"
I stepped back a minute and bent down. A smile spread across my face and tears of joy started forming.
Me: "thank you sir. Can I see him?"
?: "he's being transported to the London hospital now ma'am, he's estimated to arrived in about 15 minutes"
Me: "thank you so much"
I hung up the phone and jumped around happily. He's not gone! My best friend isn't gone!
