Elizabeth Smith has known Stef Foster and Brandon Foster since she was born. Stef and Lena are her godmothers, Mike Foster is her godfather and Brandon is her god-brother. She and Mariana are best friends while her and Jesus are dating. They've been...
(This is my own chapter and it's going to get pretty sad). *Elizabeth's Pov* I was sitting on the couch at the Fosters with Jesus. "Elizabeth, we need to talk. Jesus can you?" Stef asked and he nodded. "I'll be upstairs" he said quietly and I nodded. Stef sat in front of me and I was worried. "I got a call today from Captain Roberts about a car crash and um your parents were part of the crash. Your um parents died in the crash" she said and I froze. "What?" I asked and she nodded. "I'm so sorry honey" she said and she hugged me and I cried in her arms. "Mom have you seen my...what happened?" I heard Brandon asked. "Go get Jesus please" Stef said and Brandon nodded. Jesus came down and saw me. "What happened?" He asked. "She just needs your right now" Stef said and Jesus replaced her and I cried in his arms. "Hey Beth what happened?" He asked me and I shook my head. "Their gone" I sobbed. "Who?" He asked. "My parents" I sobbed and I knew he froze. *Third Person Pov* "Guys! Can you come here please?" Stef asked the other kids. Callie, Mariana, Jude and Brandon walked into the room. "Where's Jesus and Elizabeth?" Jude asked. "Downstairs because something happened to Elizabeth's parents" Lena said. "What happened?" Mariana asked. "They were in a car accident and didn't make it" Stef said. "Oh my god. So my godparents are gone?" Brandon asked and Stef nodded. "She's going to live with us from now on. Since me and your mother are her godparents she will live with us. Her and Jesus will be moving into the basement and Jude you get your own room. On that note the funeral will be in two days so let's give Elizabeth space" Stef said and the kids nodded. "What can we do to help?" Mariana asked. "Just give space her and be there for her" Lena said and they nodded. "Alright. Off to bed" Stef said and they left. The Funeral... *Elizabeth's Pov*

(Her dress☝🏻) "Now their daughter, Elizabeth Martinez would like to say a few words" said the priest and I stood up and went to the stand. "I don't know what to say because it's hard to loose the people who made you and wanted you to be the best you can. I was and I am going to sing something for my parents and I always sing this when I'm around then and I want to sing it for them. The song is called If I Die Young by the Band Perry" I said and nodded at the instrument players. They nodded and I took a deep breath.
"If I die young bury me in satin Lay me down on a bed of roses Sink me in the river at dawn Send me away with the words of a love song Uh oh uh oh
Lord make me a rainbow I'll shine down on my mother She'll know I'm safe with you when She stands under my colors, oh and Life ain't always what you think it oughta be, no Ain't even grey, but she buries her baby The sharp knife of a short life, Well, I've had just enough time
If I die young bury me in satin. Lay me down on a bed of roses Sink me in the river at dawn Send me away with the words of a love song
The sharp knife of a short life, Well I've had just enough time
And I'll be wearing white when I come into your kingdom I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger I've never known the lovin' of a man But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand There's a boy here in town says he'll love me forever Who would have thought forever could be severed by
[Me with the choir:] The sharp knife of a short life,
Well I've had just enough ([me with the choir:] time) Ooh yeah Ooh whoa
So put on your best boys and I'll wear my pearls What I never did is done
A penny for my thoughts Oh no, I'll sell them for a dollar They're worth so much more after I'm a goner And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singin' Funny when you're dead how people start listenin'
If I die young
[Me with the choir:] Bury me in satin Lay me down on a bed of roses Sink me in the river at dawn Send me away with the words of a love song
[Me (Choir):] Uh oh (uh oh) The ballad of a dove (uh oh) Go with peace and love
[Me with the choir:] Gather up your tears
Keep 'em in your pocket Save 'em for a time when you're really gonna need 'em, oh
[Me with the choir:] The sharp knife of a short life
Well I've had just enough (me with the choir: Time) So put on your best boys And I'll wear my pearls" I finished and then after the funeral we went to the cemetery. Jesus was next to me and so was Mariana. We had red roses because that was their favorite flower they always got on their anniversary. Once they were put in the ground I set the rose on top of Mom and Dad's casket. "I'll miss you" I whispered and stood up and walked to Jesus and hugged him. After the funeral we went home and I just sat with Jesus outside in the back doing nothing.
