Two days. It's been two days without having Nathan in your life. You haven't eaten or even slept, you've broken all of your routines besides showering...
After you finish taking your shower you look through your wardrobe..looking for something to wear to his funeral. You find a black lace dress. The only formal thing you seem to have in black, you put it on and put on shoes that match. You look in the mirror, you don't care for brushing your hair or accessorizing so you don't. You leave your room and head to the parking lot. You walk over to Victoria's car, her and Warren are waiting for you against the car

"Oh..you're coming,Warren?"

"yeah..I didn't really get a chance to get to know Nathan and we didn't agree on things but that doesn't mean I hated him. Plus,I want you to know that you have my full support." he grabs your hands, you quickly pull away. It's not that there's anything with Warren touching you, it's just...it reminds you of Nathan. You'd prefer no physical contact with anyone

"Sorry it's just..."

"No I get it. We should get going." he gently smiles and gets in the back seat
You and Victoria both ride in the front, the ride is pretty quiet but there's not any tension. Just silence.



You all pull up to the graveyard, lots of people are already there. You sigh and take a deep breath

"Will you..be okay?" Victoria notices that you look bothered

"I'll be fine." you get out, Warren and Victoria do the same. They head towards the funeral spot, you follow. You tense up as you get closer and closer to the burial spot, they haven't lowered the casket yet. You walk up to it, Warren and Victoria stay close. You put your hand on the lid of the closed casket. You're glad you didn't come earlier, you would never be able to see his lifeless body. You wouldn't be able to handle it.



After the hearing you sit with Vic and Warren.

"Wow. His parents are so full of shit, you know if they really did care Nathan would've never gotten involved with anything. He would have had good help...he wouldn't have needed to seek attention or care from a piece of shit like Mr.Jefferson." you tell Warren and Vic as you stare at Mr and Mrs Prescott who seem to be grieving

"Yeah. You're right. I guess no one really cares until you're dead," she sighs, crossing her arms "I'd know.." she refers to her previously bullying Kate, once she realized what she'd done to Kate she apologized and made friends with her

"Yeah," you look down "I wanna go home..."

"Alright.." Victoria leads you and Warren back to the car
