They were her best friends Minka and Vinnie were like siblings to her and Sunil well.. He was something special.. All the others were her friends to but they weren't as close.

FLASHBACK

How did this happen long story short. pepper was walking through New York when someone grabbed her and told her not to scream or he would shoot her and she screamed and he shot her in the heart she screamed in pain and ran away weakly until she fainted Sunil happened to be walking by and saw an ambulance he walked over to see and was horrified to see pepper being brought to the hospital.

END OF FLASHBACK

Tears rolling down Sunil's face he heard a gasp. He looked over to where pepper was laying seeing her open her eyes she was having a coughing fit until she coughed up some blood she looked as if she were already dead. Everyone left Sunil, Minka and Vinnie alone to stay with pepper for her last moments. She motioned her arm to her friends, they quickly came over to see what she needed. All of them still crying there eyes out. "I just want to say.." " yes what do you want to say" Sunil whimpered. " I just wanted to say, Minka *coughs* remember you are my best friend and I hope that you and Vinnie are happy together, and Vinnie keep dancing like nobody's watching and if you trip get up and try again." Vinnie and Minka both smile and both say " thanks." Pepper was now breathing really shallow. She coughed and weakly said " Sunil.. I.. I know that you have a lot of potential but don't hide behind your fears...*gasp* don't cry when I am gone smile for me before I'm gone.." Sunil tried to smile but his frown was stuck from his sadness." ..and just know that..that I love you." She then gave Sunil a kiss on the lips! Sunil's eyes were wide pepper then pulled away from him smiling. "Pepper don't leave me! I love you I always have!" Pepper put her hand under his chin lifting his head lightly and looked at him with sympathy. " I'm not gonna make it but I just want to tell you something...*cough* this is my last heartbeat and I'm giving it to you..." Her words trailed of like a breeze in the night air. Sunil dropped down to his knees and laid his head down on her body whispering "no.. NO! Don't leave me you know I would crawl to the ends of the earth to make you happy, I'll do anything to keep you with me!"Sunil cried.

Later that night while he was laying in his bed still crying but he was thinking of those words..her words the words that went through his mind all night and those words were "this is my last heartbeat and I'm giving it to you.."
