Carson's P.O.V.

Its been 3 damn weeks. 3 damn weeks since I have lost my best friend. It has literally been killing me. He died 3 days after we facetimed Cameron.

I rolled over on the bed and looked at my phone. It was 10:00 a.m. Ryan's funeral was today at noon.

I got up out of the bed and walked into the bathroom, I turned on the shower and took off the cloths I wore last night to bed. I got into the shower and did my business. When I was done I got out of the shower and wrapped a towel around my body and one around my head.

I walked back into the bedroom and picked up my suit case. I got out my black bandeau, underwear, and my black strapless dress. I dried off my body and slipped on my underwear and bandeau. After I was done I pulled my dress on and walked into the bathroom. I plugged in my blow dryer and blow dried my hair until it as completely dry. When it was all dry I plugged in my curling iron and waited for it to heat up.

While I was waiting I quickly did my make up and brushed my teeth. Once I was done I started on my hair. I finshed my hair within 15 minutes. I looked at my reflection and called it good. I turned off the curing iron and walked back into the bedroom. I grabbed my silver heels from my bag and slid them on.

I grabbed my phone off the bed and walked downstairs. I looked at the time 10:50. I mentally sighed to myself and grabbed Ryan's car keys and walked out to his car and made my way to the airport.

As I entered the parking lot of the airport my phone started ringing.

"Hello?" I said into the phone.

"Hey, can you come pick me and the guys up from the airport. Were at Gate 24." Cam asked.

"Yeah, I'm walking in now." I said hanging up as I turned the car off getting out and walking into the airport. I walked up to Gate 24 and sat down in one of the chairs waiting for the guys.

"Carson." I heard someone yell.

I looked up to see Cameron walking towards me. I got up and ran to him and hugged him. This is what I need, expecially right now.

"I love you so much" I whispered to him.

"I love you too Carson." He said sitting my back down. I fixed my dress and walked up to the other guys.

I hugged them all and turned around to get Cameron so we could leave but he wasnt were he was standing before. I looked around and saw him sitting in the waiting chair with his head in his hands. I walked over to him and kneeled down.

"Cam?" I asked

"I should have been there for him, I'm such a horrible friend. I wasnt there. I promised him." He said looking up at me with tears falling from his eyes.

"Cam, listen to me. There was nothing we could have done. You're not a horrible friend. " I said to him.

I looked down at my watch and saw that it was 11:20.

"Hey we need to get going to make it to the church on time." I said standing up and holding my hands out for him. He took them and stood up and hugged me.

"Thank you so much sis." he said kissing my forehead.

We walked out of the airport and to the car. I got in the drivers seat as the other guys got in. I started up the car and headed off to the church where the service was going to be.

I pulled up to the church and parked into the parking lot. I turned the car off and all of us got out and went into the church. I walked up to the secong row and sat down, with the boys following. It went Nash, me, Cam, Matt, Jack G, Jack J, Taylor, Shawn, Aaron then Hayes.

As the preacher started walking up to the podium everyone took their seat.

He started talking and a few people got up and did their speeches. By the time his mom got up and was doing her speech I was like a waterfall.

After his mom made her speech, the preacher ended it with prayer. I got up and went to the casket. I looked dwown at my lifeless best friend.

"I love you so much Ryan. I'm going to miss you so much. Thank you for being my best friend." I whispered before I bent down and kissed his icey forehead. I walked back to the guys except Cam cause he was at the casket. I went up to Nash and hugged him.

"Are ya'll going home tomorrow or toight?" I asked Nash as he wiped away the tears falling from my face.

"Tomorrow." he said before kissing my forehead.

"Are you ready to go watch them lower him in the ground?" I heard Stephanie ask.

I let go of Nash and nodded. I gave Nash the keys and told him to follow us in Ryan's car. I walked out with Stephanie and got in her car.

As we waited for them do get Ryan's casket into the hearse.

"So, um, I know you leave tomorrow, but before Ryan got in the hospital he packed up some things and put your name on them. I dont know whats in the boxes but I dont know whats in them. There is like 2 boxes." she said.

I nodded before she put the car in  drive and followed behind the hearse.

Once we reached the cemetery we got out and walked over to where Ryan was going to be burried.

As they lowered Ryan into the ground the preacher prayed once again. When he was completely in the ground they covered him up.

We stayed  there for a few more minutes before we left and went back to Ryan's house.
