"Dead is the new alive" I know what you're thinking… I was just being trendy. After all, more and more people seem to be doing it and I was always one to keep up with the current fashions. But this one is really cool. Trust me. And mark my words; it won't be long before all of you start to follow my lead.
Now I'm not knocking life – "life is good" as the rather expensive t-shirts which are always over priced would have said. Have you noticed that t-shirts with sarcastic and opinionated statements cost a lot less than the ones with deep quotes on them? I may be dead, but I still like a bargain, so I'd take a "Cool story bro" t-shirt over the "Life is Good" one any day.
But I digress. Since you're all assembled and probably feeling somewhat bad – I guess about being left behind – I wanted to tell you some things about life I really liked – back when living was "in."
"What is this?" I frowned, paused the tape and looked at the others who were all sat in silence, stunned at what we were witnessing.
"It's Katie…" Louis said with a monotone voice, his eyes glued to the old, chunky TV in my bedroom. I'd had it since I was little and never thought of getting a new one as times changed and DVD and BlueRay came into fashion. Good thing I hadn't or we wouldn't have been able to watch this VCR.
"No shit!" Harry chucked something at Louis' head.
"Ouch, that hurt!"
"Stop it guys," I sighed and pressed the "play" button on my television.
"Rainbows. I'm not sure whether I'll be able to see them when I leave. You know, people always say rainbows are the bridge between heaven and earth but I never believed any of that bullshit. Again, that's all deep and inspiring and I like sarcasm." I looked at Bexwho was chuckling to herself, typical Katie.
"People take rainbows for granted but I don't, they make me smile… or made… whatever. They remind me of you. Remember? We sat in the field that one day, in the rain. It cleared up though and one appeared… Who am I kidding? You probably don't even care." I felt everyone glance at Harry and he cleared his throat, we all quickly fixated our eyes on to the screen.
"Madonna. Call me old fashioned, but I loved to jam out in the car with Bex and Helen to Like A Virgin or…" Louis burst out laughing "SHE SAID VIRGIN HAHAHAHA!" I shot a glare at him as the tape carried on.
"Anyway, you're probably sat in Helen's room watching this seeing as she's the one with the VCR. Louis, you're on the scruffy old beanbag, Bex will be squished up to Niall at the end of Helen's bed against the wall… get a room guys, seriously, stop touching each other. I may be dead but I can still see what you guys are doing!" They went bright red and all of us started laughing at them, she was right, that's exactly what they were like!
"Why am I watching this? You ask yourselves. Well I want to tell you all about how I died."
