Maya's POV
I get out of the shower and change into some underwear , gray Victoria secret shorts , a white tee , and a grey sports bra before leaving the bathroom .
When I walk down the hall and go into Josh's old bedroom , everyone is talking sitting in their beds , except Josh who is on his phone .
" Hey Maya ." Riley says to me when I come and sit on my air mattress .
" Hey ." I say back .
" So , " Zay says coming to sit by me , soon followed by the others . Then , he whispers ," Mr.Handsome was in there with you for a long time ..."
" Yeah ." Riley says .
" Nothing happened guys ." I whisper back and give them a dirty look . Come on , he's right there .
" You aren't dating my uncle , Maya ." Riley whispers just to me .
I roll my eyes and smile at her . " Of course not ."
We all settle down and talk about little , random things before individually falling asleep .

I wake up multiple times before finally giving up and crawling off my air mattress . I look around to realize I'm the only one awake - except for Josh , who's bed is empty .
I decide to go downstairs and grab some cereal . I tip toe down the stairs into the kitchen , where I find Josh , cooking .
" What are you doing ?" I smile , coming to stand in front of the island .
" Cooking ." Josh laughs .
" No. " I roll my eyes sarcastically .
" I'm making pancakes , if you must know ."
" Oh , " I gasp " husband material ."
" Be quiet ." He laughs . " I thought it would be nice for everyone to wake up to a nice breakfast . Considering the funeral is in a few hours ..."
" That's ... really nice of you ."
Josh just looks up at me and smiles bashfully before looking back down at his batter .
" Need any help ?" I smirk .
" Sure , ferret ."
I narrow my eyes at him and join him in the kitchen .

I throw on a long sleeve black dress , black sandals , and leave my hair natural before walking out to the van . Holding back tears and carrying my white rose .
