Michelle's POV:

A few weeks had passed since the dress was given to me. And it was a week until prom. But I woke up an felt dizzy and I collapsed unto the ground. I did not feel good at all. I call for my parents, who by the way are back together.

" What's wro-" my Mother stopped mid sentence.

"Wrong?" My Dad finished.

" I feel terrible." I barely moaned. My parents helped me onto my bed. Then they left to drop my brothers off at school. But they hadn't come back. They had been gone a long while. I just decided they had stuff to do. Sadly that wasn't true.

~2 hours later~

N: news lady

N: This just in (I am to cliché) car accident on highway 1. (?) 3 kids and two adults dead at the scene. The man identified as Jay Carter and his family. All of his family but his only daughter. More updates to come.

I stood there unable to move, my heart skipped a beat. They're dead? I pinched myself about 10 times to make sure I wasn't dreaming. Just then I heard the doorbell ring. I ran downstairs and opened the door. I saw all me friends. And in fact they were crying too.

" Why are y... you cry... crying?" I barley stammered. My voice had been raspy from crying.

" Because they were part of our family too. Kinda like a second set of parents." Chipper spoke triumphantly.

I let them inside. We all sat there crying our shimmering eyes out. We didn't speak.

" What will happen to me?" I said through sobs.

" I don't really know." Angela said not looking me in the eyes.

"You could live with any of us." Ethan spoke.

I took that into consideration. Living with my best friends? How cool would that be?!

"I will live with one of my old friends Adam." I said quiet, but loud enough to get quite a few eyebrow raises. I looked at them. I never did explain who that was to them. "He's an old friend." I try. I grabbed my phone and call him up.

A: Adam

M: Michelle ( I like how that was obvious and I didn't need that at all. Oh well.)

A: Hello?

M: Hi Adam! It's Michelle.

A: Hi! I heard about your parents. I feel awful

I feel my voice crack a little.

M: Yeah. Well that's life. I need a favor.

A: Anything, you name it and it's yours.

M: this will sound a little rude but, can I live with you?

There was a long pause.

A: Wow. I thought you needed money.

M: I understand if that's much.

A: No, no. It's fine. Really! I have a guest room. When are you comin'?

M: Umm, maybe a week?

A: That sounds great! Umm, will it be okay if some of my friends come over. to live with me to?

M: Yeah I guess as long as there is a girl. I prefer to have at least one girl there.

A: Oh yeah there will be. Her name is Ashley and she is really nice and pretty and nice.

M: Ooh! Someone got a crush!?

A: Maybe, Maybe not.

M: Haha. ok well talk to ya later.

A: Okay! Bye.

"So.. What's happening?" I had heard Carter ask. I was still savoring the words that I would have a home again.

" I am saying with Adam. I move in with him in about a week." I said it as causally as I could even though I was super pumped.

Everyone was happy that I'd get to restart my life. Everyone except Carter. What was his deal?
