I saw her. She was standing there in the alley perfectly unscathed smiling with a circle of white light around her.
- Crystal? - I asked uncertainly.
- Don't open the letter - she said
- What letter? - I said
- Shhh - she said putting a finger to her lips. - They can't know that I told you -. - I'm gonna miss you. Goodbye. - she said calmly.
- What? Who's they? What letter? -. I said, desperate for answers. Her image was fading. -Don't leave me! Please! - I said between sobs.
- I have to. It's not my choice. You'll be okay without me - She said with a sad smile. A tear slid down her cheek. - I love you Alexis. Be careful. -.
Sobs racked my body and I fell to the ground.
- I love you too -. I said quietly.
And with that she was gone. I sobbed and sobbed for what felt like hours. I wiped away my tears and looked around. There she was. Beautiful as always. She was laying on the floor. Her hair was like a velvety black curtain and her eyes were closed. She looked peaceful. Happy, even. Her shirt and hands were covered with her blood and a knife protruded from her chest. I grew cold at the sight of her lifeless body on the ground. My friend, my ally, my roommate, my rock. Dead.
Authors note:
So chapter 10 was Crystal's last chapter and from now on it'll be all Alexis. From now on I will try to make the chapters longer. Don't hesitate to make suggestions and i am open to critisism. Also, if you love music, I have included a song that I love that I think you should listen to. Thanks so much and HAPPY READING!
