The way that those lights lit the night. There was something different about it. Its like there was magic in the air. My guitar was sitting just outside the back door and I picked it up moving the sheet. I pulled the sheet down and the pool deck was revealed. Everyone was sort of stunned in amazement.
"Y'all just gonna stand there stairing?" I ask walking out back sitting down. I dip my feet in the water and everyone fills into the pool deck. They all stripped to their swimsuits and joined me around the pool. A few of the guys slowly dipped themselves into the pool and some sat around me. Everyone brought their wine with them.
"Whats this about?" Chris said as he swam towards me. "I have a song to play first." I say getting my guitar from behind me. I start to play the song and everyone got confused. When I was done no one had a clue. Zach and Mel how ever had the biggest smiles on their faces. "Tell them. Its time." Zach spoke up from behind me.
I take a deep breath. "I am a part of Dream LA. I joined the team... 3 weeks ago..." I say adjusting my seating. All eyes shot to Zach. A few devious smiles and a few frowns. Zach Mel and I just laughed at this. "You have been a part of the team for a while now? Yall are good." Heidi said from behind me. Mel and Zach laughed at this. I got up and walked over a my laptop and clicked the space bar.
After a few minutes songs started playing and I put my hair up taking off my necklaces and rings. Not warning anyone in or around the pool I ran and jumped in. Everyone looked shocked in a 'what just happened' way. "LET'S GET THIS PARTY STARTED!" Bryan yelled as everyone ran and jumped in the pool at the same time. Almost in unison. The only people who wernt in the pool was Mel and Zach.
They were sitting around a table talking laughing and having a good time as well. We all swam around for a while and for tired so we got out of the pool. I wrapped a towel around me and shut off the music. Tonight the boys didnt go live and neither did I. Mel Zach and I had decided that everyone could stay at my house tonight. I blocked my room off and let everyone choose where they would sleep for the night.
The night soon came to an end. Everyone got to be "angry" at us for keeping this a secret for so long. But no one was truly angry or upset. They understood. Mel and I made dinner while everyone was showering and changing. So many people and only 2 showers. One of them was in my room.
It took a while for everyone to get a shower and changed so Mel and I could take our time cooking. We wasnt rushed. We made lasagna and had a choice of coca cola, sweet tea, or water to drink with it. Almost everyone chose tea. Heidi chose water and so did Mel and Tyler. Dom, Ian, and Padre chose to drink pop. Glad I didn't get the pop for nothing.
About half way into dinner there was a knock at the door. "I'll get it. Yall keep eating." I say getting up to answer the door. I look through the peep hole and see an officer standing there. I open the door cautiously. "Can I help you tonight officer?" I say stepping outside shutting the door behind me.
"Uh. Is Skylar Makenzie here?" He said taking his hat off stepping backwards out of respect. "I am Sklyar Mackenzie. Whats going on?" I ask worried. There was no reason for a government official to be at my house. "Ma'am I am Officer Jones." He said. It sounded like there was sorrow in his voice. "What is going on Officer Jones?" I ask even more worried.
"Ma'am. I got a call from someone named Jessica Mackenzie. She contacted us from a hospital in Miami Florida." He said pausing. Thats where I was from. "What happened?" I ask my voice breaking. "I never in my life expected to have to tell someone this. But. Your mother Jessica and your brother James were in a bad accident and they both passed away." He said looking down.
I fell to the ground holding my chest. My breath hitched in my throat and I cried. Officer James kneeled beside me and put his hand on my back. "She gave me a nessage to tell you." He said. I nedded. "I made sure to write down every word that she said.
My mothers note:
Hey baby bird. I am so sorry. Your brother and I love you so much. We will forever live in your heart with you. Never forget us. We are with God now. I love you baby bird. Chirp chirp.
I cried as I read it. "All calls are recorded... Right?" I ask finally breathing. "Yes ma'am." He answered shortly. "Can I hear it? Her call. Can I hear it." I ask. "We can have it sent to you. A copy of the file of her call. We can have it on a flash drive sent to you." Jones said. "Can you have it sent here?" I ask. He nodded. "Thank you." I said wiping my tears. "Im sorry for your loss." I nod and we stand up.
I shook his hand and he left. I sat outside for a few more minutes thinking of what I was going to say. What am I going to say? I can't think of anything. All my mind can remember is my moms note in my hand. That peice of paper saying my moms last words before her phone call disconected with the police.
I walk inside barely able to keep it together. Barely holding it together. I just walk past everyone silently holding that peice of paper. I doubt anyone noticed. But then again I didnt hear talking either. I reached the stairs and stopped. I couldnt keep it together anymore.
Tears escaped my eyes and I colapsed again. With a hard thud my body hit the ground and I passed out. When I woke up next I was in the hospital. A machine next to me started beeping and I started to freak out. Instantly nurses started rushing in.
"Clear the room!" A nurse yells. Voices fill the room then everything went quiet again. It was silent and dark. I could hear nothing I could see nothing.
