On Friday, April 5th, 2018, 30 km north of Tisdale, Saskatchewan in Canada, there was a fatal crash involving the junior hockey team called the Humboldt Broncos and a semi-truck driver. There were 29 people involved in the crash, including the semi driver and the people aboard the bus.
15 dead.
14 injured.
And at least 2 in critical condition.
In this short story, I will try to reimagine how it would feel, being on that bus, at that time.
This is the story of the Humboldt Broncos.
My prayers go out to the families of the deceased and the living. I pray for the physical and the mental health of everyone who knew them. And who are them.
You will be forever in our hearts. Never forgotten.

He had always been there for her when she needed him. He looked out for her and protected her from guys that had bad intentions, and she trusted him more than anyone else in the world. He even gave up going to Yale, his dream school, so he could go to college with her to make sure she was okay after losing her Mom. When she decided she wanted to lose her virginity, her roommate convinced her it should be with Dean because she wanted her first time to be with someone special, that she trusted. Who could be more special than her best friend? Dean refused because he said it would mess up their friendship, but when he found out that refusing meant she was going to do it with a guy he hated instead, he eventually gave in. He was so protective of her that he would do anything to keep her away from him. The deal was, they were going to do it one time and then go back to being just friends after and act like it never happened.

The best friend, the girlfriend, the planned future and his sight. Fighting through darkness and depression, he built high walls that kept everyone out. Skye suffered loss too, but she kept strong for the sake of her little brother, Matt. With her aunt and brother, leaving home and moving to a new place seemed like the perfect solution. A new start that they all needed. Skye's plan was to blend in and keep to herself. Well, not the easiest task when it was obvious as daylight that you were the new girl at school. Especially when she, literally, bumped into Ethan. For Ethan who has been isolating himself and absolutely independent that he pushed everyone away, and Skye being stubborn and not in-the-least shy on saying what she thought openly, fighting and bickering was unpreventable.

I'll Love You Till the End
So I have this thing. Some people would call it a catastrophe; some would call it heart breaking. It also has the name of disease, and heart killer. I call it just cancer. Simple enough as it is, right? Doesn't help that I already had it once before, it just came back to fight harder as ever. I thought it was over. Isn't it though? Don't you give up at that point? Senior year and I'm ready to end my life as a person all together. I'm tired of fighting and might as well give up because there are no chances of me living all together. So as a smart choice I move so when I die no one will know me or care about me. Wouldn't that be the logical choice? I don't want pity. Never liked, never will. So don't tell anyone I have cancer. Ever. Doesn't help that a boy started getting involved with me and snuck under my skin before I even realized what he was doing. What changed me were those few, simple words all together. "I'll love you till the end." That, that was about the time I started caring about life again. And it was all because of him.Complete
