Dave's pov-

        I walked back into John's white room to find him passed out on the bed. I sighed. I pulled up a chair next to the bed. I sat down in the chair and placed my head on the bed. Why did this have to happen? I just can't believe it. Jade was to young to die. She was too happy and high spirited. She was one of my closest friends besides John. She knew how to make someones day better by just smiling. Or putting on those dorky dog ears she made. Why couldn't life be a game? If you die, you get another life. But this wasn't a game. This was real. And everyone had to die sometime or another. But why now? Why so violently? I sighed. And John had to whitness it. He couldn't remember it, but he was still there. He had seen it. And one way or another he was going to remember. The hard reality was going to hit him and we was probably go into a relapse and freak the fuck out. It was going to happen. And I wouldn't know what to do. I would probably lose him again. Tears started following out of my eyes. I sobbed into the white bed sheets. I couldn't deal with this. I jsut couldn't wrap my head around it. We were supposed to be friends forever. Just like Jade said. Just like she promised. We were supposed to go to college together. We were supposed to be together for Easter, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and every holiday inbetween. Jade promised us that. She always keeps her promises. But what now. She couldn't that when she wasn't here. My sobs became more violent, they shook my whole body. This wasn't fair. This wasn't fair!

John's pov-

        I woke up to the sounds of someone crying. Who was it? I looked over to the side of the bed to see Dave sobbing into the bed sheets. I patted his head. "Dave? What's wrong?" He looked up at me. He slipped his shades off and rubbed his eyes. "Nothing. I'm fine." He stood up. He pushed the chair out of his way. "You can go home tomorrow." He said quietly. I nodded. I wasn't worried about that now. I wanted to know what was wrong with him. I don't really remember anything about Dave, but he didn't seem like a person that would cry a whole lot. I pushed the blankets off of me. I turned so I facing him. I placed my feet on the ground and stood. My legs felt funny as I stood and soon I was falling. But Dave was there. He caught me before I fell all the way down. "Easy there." I sighed. "You haven't been walking around have you?" I shook my head. "C'mon. I'll take you walking."
