Chapter 30

Recap:

  Once I finished writing those, I walked over to my bed and laid down. I'd write Emily's and deliver them all tomorrow morning while they were at school. There was an act 80 day but I could get them out fast enough. I was determined. 

**********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

      I slept in late forgetting what I was planning for today. I woke up in a panic and started to write Emily's letter.

Dear Queen Space Jesus:

First of all, after what I do today you might not be able to bring me back to kill me again. I know I know not the time or jokes. I know what I said before about how my past won't relive itself again. Because it won't because today I'm going to succeed. I'm gonna miss you more than you will ever know. I don't know where to start, gosh this is really hard to write. I remember the first time I ever saw you. I knew from that moment I wanted to latch on you were quiet but soon opened up and were louder and funnier than what I ever expected. The jokes and funny noises you made. You knew how to make me laugh when I was down. We used to mess around and say that I would never have to write one of these letters and look I'm writing one now. I'm really gonna miss the old times. You made marching band and indoor truly enjoyable. I don't know what I would have done without you. Andy too but without you, I would have never opened up to him. You really have helped me become the person I am today. . . but I don't think you can help me anymore. I know you don't say this, and yes I know emotion gross. But I love you like a sister Emily I couldn't have asked for a better friend. Thank you.

      I finished writing her letter realizing I was crying like a baby I stood up and went downstairs. I left my moms letter on the counter. I only had ten minutes until school was let out. It scared me for someone to see me handing out letters or having to hand it to them I didn't want to. I drove to Natalie's then to Macc's. After putting there's in their mailboxes I went to Liv's and then Sarena's. Then to Felicia's house and then Emily C. I stopped by the school and went in to talk to Mr.B I talked with him for a few minutes. When I went to leave I handed Mr.B a letter to him and one for Andy. When I finally went to leave his office he stopped me.

"Alexis are you ok?"

"Yes, Mr.B I'm perfect."

"Ok." 

     He said that doubtfully. He didn't say anything else. Mr.B was an understanding person if he felt like someone was in danger he would have said or done something. Now Andy would have stopped me. He would have made me talk to him about what was going on, and I kind of wish Mr.B was going to do that but at the same time, i'm glad he didn't. As I was leaving the band room I turned around one last time and looked around. I whispered goodbye under my breathe and just as I stepped foot outside the building Mr.B opened his letter. It broke my heart I wanted to turn around and tell him it wasn't true but it had to happen. 

      I walked out and to my car, the last letter was for Emily. As I left the property I saw Mr.B run out of the door with Officer Haines. I sped up as they ran back into the building for what I don't know. I went down to dunkin' doughnuts and turned left. This was it the last letter until I was actually gonna do what I've wanted to do for some time now. I drove down the rode, I could see her house in the distance and it scared me. I was shaking and tears came to my eyes. I finally reached her house my car came to a stop. I slowly reached for the door of my car and opened it slowly. Once I got out I walked up to her door and went to knock but decided against it. I stood there for a minute and knocked on her door. I waited for someone to open the door knowing I saw her moms car out front. As I went to turn around and walk off the porch I hear the door opening.

"Hey Alexis, you coming in Emily's home if you want to talk to her."

"Y-y-yeah, that'd be great."

  Her mom walked away and I started panicking. I was scared, I didn't want to talk to her, she always knows when something is wrong and that would delay the process. I waited a few minutes becoming more and more impatient as I saw Officer Haines' car drive past her house. He didn't know where the bridge was. Not many people did only Emily and Natalie and that's because in my junior year earlier that year I tried to jump but couldn't. I needed someone to talk to so I talked to them. I waited a few more minutes and she finally came out.

"Hey."

"Hi." I didn't look at her I couldn't.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing."

"Bull crap you were crying what's wrong?"

"Here, Just read this. It will explain everything. " 

    With that, I ran from her porch before I decided to pull away from my idea. I jumped in my car and sped away. I got to the opening of the woods and stopped my car. I got out and left my keys in my car. I walked slowly into the woods and took a detour to the bridge. I walked slowly as I reached it. It was like the world slowed around me I didn't hear anything but the fast water running. I got to the middle of the bridge and looked over the edge. The water was high and the tide was fast. If I jumped with the water like this there was no getting out. Sadly that's what I wanted, I didn't want to live after today. I wanted today to be my last day.

     I got up on the ledge and stepped forward slowly. I took another step forward and heard something in the distance. I turned my head and I could see Emily running down the hill with her mother on her tail. She was crying and not in the way I used to wish I could make her cry. She got a few steps from the bridge and I leaned forward into the rushing water and just like that I was gone. Down in the water where no one would get to me right away. The very last thing I heard Emily say before my body hit the water made me wish I never did anything. As my head went under I saw her turn to her mom and say,

"She actually jumped."
