Chapter 2

I was in class with Puck and Finn when the three of us were called down to the principal's office. We wondered what we had done wrong. When we got there, we saw Will, and Mr and Mrs. Jackson (Jason's dad and stepmom).

"Sit down please," Principal Figgins said.

Puck, Finn and I sat on the chairs in front of his desk.

"Is everything okay?" I asked Mrs. Jackson.

"Sweetie," she said, wiping her eyes. "Something bad has happened to Jason."

"What?" Puck asked.

"Jason and his team were walking in the desert," Will said. "It was so dusty. He stepped on a landmine. His team made it because they were ahead of him. Jason didn't make it."

"No!" I said. "Will, you're lying. He said he was coming home."

"I wish I was lying, Andi," he said. "But Jason is not coming home."

"Jason promised me, Will," I said. "He promised me he'd come back. Now he's not."

I ran out of the office and towards the auditorium. Puck and Finn came in a few minutes later.

"He promised me he'd come back," I said. "He broke his promise. He promised me and he broke it."

Finn held me and Puck held my hand.

"We told Jason that it was a stupid idea," Finn said.

"He didn't listen," Puck said. "Jason never listened."

"I wanna sing a song," I said.

Puck and Finn thought it was a good idea.

Andrea: Would you know my name

If I saw you in heaven?

Would if be the same

If I saw you in heaven?

I must be strong

And carry on,

'Cause I know I don't belong

Here In heaven.

Finn: Would you hold my hand

If I saw you in heaven?

Would you help me stand

If I saw you in heaven?

I'll find my way

Through night and day

'Cause I know I just can't stay

Here in heaven.

Puck: Time can bring you down

Time can bend your knees

Time can break your heart

Have you begging please, begging please

Beyond your door

There's peace I'm sure

And I'll know there be no more

Tears in heaven.

A,F,P: Would you know my name

If I saw you in heaven?

Would it be the same

If I saw you in heaven?

I must be strong

And carry on,

'Cause I don't belong

Here in heaven.

Will told our other teachers Puck, Finn and I would not be in their classes because of personal matters.
