Aiden's POV

"Miss Vera is dead, she took her life a few days ago" The man said

Time froze, I remembered all the times I was with her, How she made me smile so easily, how she was so dark and moody, and now, she was gone

"Oh god, why" My mom shakily said as she held on to me and cried

I close the door and my powers went insane, electricity was zipping in every corner of the room

"Aiden, please calm down, don't make this harder than it already is" My mom pleaded

"ITS ALL MY FAULT" I screamed, as I said that, the weather outside was changing ,It was the beginning of a rain storm

Cassie heard all the commotion and came downstairs

"What the fuck is going on?!" She asked suprised at my angry state

"Ve-" My mom began but I cut her off with my lightning

"Please don't mention her name" I said shakily

"Aiden, Sometimes you need to calm the fuck down, and tell me what happened" Cassie stated, "Sometimes you need to put down some of your burdens and let someone carry it along side you"

I took what she said to mind and calmed down, but stayed silent

I felt dead, even more burdened, but most of all, guilty

We all stayed in silence for a few minutes before my mom spoke up

"Let's go visit Vera's family"

"Ok, now I'm getting mad, what the fuck is going on, Aiden and you look more dead than zombies in the walking dead" Cassie said, an annoying tone in her voice

"Cassie, Vera took her life a few days ago" I said with a monotone voice

"Oh...Well" She said with a sympathetic voice

"Well, let's not chit chat anymore and go visit Vera's family" My mom said
_______________________________________
I was scared to visit them, I knew they would hate me, the guilt multiplied this fear and my powers were leaking out, every now and then an electric shock would buzz in my hand

"I want you to read her last-" Vera's mom checked on her words but then soon continued "Her last letter"

"Of course" My mom said, and we started reading the letter

To all the boys I hated before..
Just kidding!
It's me Vera, well you won't
be seeing me much longer though..
Since I'm dead anyway, I can
curse in this letter
Gotcha bitch!
Anyway, Mom and Dad, I love you
very much, and I'm not sorry
for killing myself
To my 3 friends, I DIED FIRST
MOTHERFUCKER!
And lastly, I know Aiden will read
this, so all I have to say is...
See you in hell bitch, and I hope
you burn
That's all I have to say, so, um
FUCK THIS SHIT IM OUT!

Sincerely, Yours truly, The emo bitch (P.S, If you want to know my feelings, see my second letter)

I didn't know how to feel about this, she wanted me to burn in hell...

I just stayed silent, my mom was trying not to ball her eyes out, and Cassie just stared at the floor

I wanted to die instead of Vera, I felt so bad, It was all my fault, all my fault..

My electricity went insane, It knocked both Vera's parents unconscious and broke every light switch

Then my electric hand went to the kitchen and brought a knife, It knew what I wanted

"Aiden! Please don't, Please my beautiful baby, don't blame yourself" My mother begged

Cassie used her wind powers to knock the knife off my hand

"Aiden, I'm gonna be real with you, In some way it is your fault, but what is not your fault is her decision to kill herself, It was her life" She said as she came towards me and hugged me closely, "Aiden ,if you want to scream, then scream, let it all out"

I screamed, I cried, and I cursed. My electricity died down and it was dead quiet

But I felt warm and fuzzy inside

Thanks Cassie for always making me laugh, in the saddest moments, Thanks dealing with my stupidity, and thank you for sticking with me to the very end

I love you, Cassie
