If I Die Young
Sarah's POV
I can't believe it. Erica passed away. Benny had passed away. It was just Me and Ethan. Not that I'm complaining but they just... They just died young. Benny being 17 Erica Turing 18 I mean. They could have done so much. I was so stupid taking Erica to church. I thought she deserved it for embarrassing Rory in front of the whole school. When she drank the holy water, she wasn't used to it. I mean if you've been a vampire for a long time a glass of holy water will just put you in Bed for a couple days. But Erica had only been a full vampire for a little over a year. The doctor claimed that it was something in the dried up yeast-less bread, but he was just a mortal. I hear Erica's parents are suingthe church for 'killing their little Angel' Ethan and I were still shucken up. The school had a memorial service for the loss of Benjamin Wier & Erica Thompson. Ethan, Rory and I plus a few other people were the only people there. After the service Rory,Ethan and I went to the Whitechapel graveyard to give our last wishes to the deceased. Ethan put white roses on Benny and Erica's grave. I put Red roses on both their graves. Rory on the other hand put a picture of himself on Benny's grave that read 'Remember me by my awesomeness and never let go' The never let go part was a quote from Benny's favourtie movie 'Titanic' Weird. Titanic was Erica's favourite movie too. (Besides Dusk). And I noticed another thing; Erica and Benny's grave were right next to each other even though the graveyard goes in Alphabetic order.
*The Next Day*
Sarah's POV
I was helping Mrs. Jones clean out Erica's room. We didn't know what to do with her stuff since she didn't have a will. But then I noticed on top her desk was her diary. I couldn't stop myself from reading it. I mean She IS dead.

A crappy poem by Erica D. Jones
IF I DIE YOUNG
When I get to heaven,
I WILL have my fairy tale wedding
With the guy of my dreams
I will be full of gleam
With the guy of my dreams...
Benjamin Wier.
If I die young,
Bury me in Satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Stick me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
