Erica's p.o.v

I sat up in Lucy's bed it's been a week since she's passed away. Her funeral is this afternoon. I've started selling our furniture I gave her clothes, shoes and stuffed animals to charity. I've already talked to my mom and she said she understood and I could move in with Brennen until I get my own place. It was so great to hear her voice. I haven't head it in a very long time. The only thing I'm keeping of Lucy's is the photo album  she made when we met in middle school, and her necklace with gold angel wings and a halo. I had the matching one that had silver devil wings and horns. Lucy's father said I could pick out her outfit that she wore for the funeral. So I picked out a crystal blue dress with sparkles, and a blue and gold flower crown, gold earings, and I decided it was best if she worn her angel necklace when she was buried. I haven't slept much this week. It was 2 so I needed to start getting ready for the funeral, I was singing there. Her father said that's what she would have wanted. So I was singing sinners.  It was a good relatable song. As I was taking a shower I looked at my fore arm and started to cry. It was my part of the matching tattoos we had.

  Mine said I'll keep you wild and Lucy's said I'll keep you safe. 
I remembered it took 3 months to convince her to get it. I got out of the shower and put on my blood red dress that went to my knees with black pantyhose underneath. I also put on my black high heels. I curled my hair and looked in the mirror. I had blood shot eyes, with tear stains underneath. I put in eye drops and it look away my eyes being red, but I still had tear stains. I decided that I would do a full face of make up for Lucy. To top of my look I put on my barbed wire crown that had red and black flowers, and my devil necklace. I sprayed on some perfume and walked out the door.

It was almost time for me to sing I had gone through the ceremony with only shedding a few tears. Now the priest just finished and just welcomed me on stage for my song and my speech.
My name is Erica Taylor. I recongize most of you do to the fact that ever since I met Lucy in 8th grade we've become inseparable. We stopped considering ourselves friends and started concidering ourselves sisters. When I met Lucy we were both going through bad times. And we helped each other get through them. I don't know what would have happened to me if I didn't meet Lucy, or where i would be. Today im singing a song for Lucy. We used to sing it as a duet,but now that duet has become a solo. So as I sing this so I want you to think about the lyrics and appreciate them as much as we did. With that the music started and I started to sing.

After I was done singing I received a round or applause and some people were tearing up. I returned to my seat. Then we all prayed. I said my goodbyes to every one as they left, until only Lucy's father and I were left. Then he left. I walked over to Lucy's casket, and knealed beside her. Angel I know you can't hear me or maybe you can I'm not sure how this works, but I've kept your promises. I've talked to my mother and I'm flying to L.A. I'm sad you left but I'm happy I get to see my family. I'm surprising them the only one who's knows I'm coming is my mom. I miss them, but I miss you more. I hope you liked it when I sang. I've decided to make a promise to you. You know to keep my word, well my promise is to stand up for what's right and what I believe in. I promise to stay strong for anyone like you who can't be. I promise to trust more, and finally I promise to stay the same and not change who I am as a person. This is my final goodbye. Say hi to your mother for me and tell my father I loved hi, even though he didn't love me. Goodbye angel.  With that I got up and left. I went home and shoved everything I could into suit cases even Lucy's photo album. Then I headed to the bank, like I said I'm keeping her promises, so I drained her bank account. I was surprised that she had 2 million dollars saved up. Well I mean she has been saving ever since she started vet school. After that I headed to the airport. I already had ordered a ticket for L.A. I was still a little sad but i finally get to meet my family in person. I know it sounds weird but my father refused to let me visit them. So as I got on the plane I pulled out my phone and started blasting music, soon enough I landed in L.A.X. As I got their my mom was waiting for me outside I know what she looks like because of Brennens vlogs. That when I spotted her after she yelled my name. I turned around them saw her I dropped my bags and ran to her. As soon as i got to her she gave me the biggest hug ever. We started rocking on our feet I never wanted to let go. Then we did. I saw she had tears in her eyes. Mommy. I said then hugged her again. Oh my sweet little devil. You've grown up so fast. I'm so sorry I couldn't take you along with your siblings. I just hope you know I've always loved you. My mother said. I know mom a I know and I love you too. And don't worry I was taken care of by my friend. I added. We were a mess we are lucky Lax wasn't that crouded. I'm sorry about your loss sweety, now let's go get your bags. She said. Ya and surprise my siblings. About that I have the perfect plan. Come on I'll tell you on the way there.
