I kicked a rock along the sidewalk as I made my daily trip to visit my girlfriend, where she lay emotionless in a hole in the ground.
I pushed open the creaky gate to the graveyard, wiping the paint chips off my hands, and I went to her resting place, the fourth one on the fifth row on the right.
Her headstone was nothing extravagant; she never wanted a big one with angel statues and cheesy quotes about how she'll never be far from our minds. It was just black with gold writing.
Here lies Riley Langenheim
1994 - 2017
May she rest in peace
I placed the red rose on her grave and sat cross legged at the end.
"Hey Riley" I spoke softly "It's me again, Ashley"
"I wonder do you ever hear all this, up in heaven. Or down in hell. You're probably in hell babygirl, with all the things we used to get up to" I giggled, that joke never got old no matter how many times I made it.
"I hope you're alright, wherever you are. I'm doing okay, I didn't cry over you today. I'm trying not to cry, because if you were here you'd roll your eyes and tell me to get a fucking grip and then I'd wipe my tears and tell you to shut up and then you'd kiss me" a tear slipped through my eyes and I wiped it away quickly "I'm sorry, sorry"
I rested her head in my hands "Jagger misses you, he just wanders around the house, looking lost. He keeps sitting by the front door, at 3:45pm every day, waiting for you to come home from work. He keeps sleeping on your side of the bed, like he's keeping it warm. It's only been 3 weeks Riley, but we're all trying. The kids you taught at that school miss you too, they don't understand. We had to tell them you transferred because explaining death to a bunch of seven year olds is no ones idea of fun"
I sighed "Nothing else has really been happening. But anyway, I have to go but I love you and I always will"
Falling silent, I stood back up, dusting myself off.
"It's cute how you do that every day"
I jumped, turning to the voice behind me.
A girl with short black hair stood beside Riley's grave, a small smirk playing on her lips.
"You nearly gave me a heart attack" I said.
She laughed "Get a fucking grip Ashley"
"You're not funny Ruby, stop sneaking up on me" I glared at her.
"She's my sister I've a right to be here"
I sighed "Can you refrain from coming while I'm here? You're her fucking twin Ruby and it's too much for me to visit my dead girlfriend and see you there all alive and shit! Its not helping me get over her!"
"Well you're not helping me get over her Ashley!"
"What the fuck do you want me to do?!" I waved my hands in frustration "Raise her from the dead? She's dead Ruby!"
I went to walk off when Ruby grabbed my arm and pulled me back, pulling me in the other direction.
"What the fuck, let go of me" I struggled to get out of her grip.
She pulled me towards her car and ordered me to get in.
I did as I was told and sat beside her in the front, scowling as she closed my door and opened the one on the other side for herself.
"Where are we going?" I asked.
"You'll see"
