"I don't want to go, El. I really don't." I watch as his small hands fumble with the buttons on his white dress shirt. "I know, neither do I. But we have to. It wouldn't be right if we didn't." My eyes water at the thought of attending my mothers funeral today. I'm trying my best to keep it in for Bryce but I'm not sure how I will hold up at the funeral. Today I will be seeing my mother for the last time before they put her inside of the ground to stay there forever. My mind is still processing it all and I feel like everything around me is going so fast and my brain can't keep up. I grab Bryce's small hand and pull him out of the door.

The whole day passes by in a blur. I am flooded with what it seems like thousands of 'im sorry for your loss's and I feel like throwing up. The toughest part was looking at her, seeing her lifeless body just laying in the casket filled me with a mixture of sadness and anger. She didn't deserve to die. She was a great person, screw cancer. Screw everything. "How are you?" A deep voice pulls me away from my thoughts, I look up and see two deep brown eyes peering down at me. Jaden. I roll my eyes and look back down. "You know I'm doing just fine Jaden, my mom just died, I'm tired, and I'm stuck at this dumb dinner party" My grandmother forced me to attend her dinner that she is hosting in honor of my mom, she's calls it her "A celebration of life party". Jaden puts his hands up in surrender. "I'm just trying to help, I know this sucks for you." I sigh and look up at Jaden. "I know, I just feel really crappy right now." His eyes light up and a smirk spreads across his face. "Wanna get out of here?"
