Heaven??

When I awoke from my slumber I felt a little better about the situation. I was still depressed and slightly angry, but at least I wasn't crying anymore. Crying sucked, even if it was supposed to be a stress reliever.

Moving on, I numbly made my way back toward where I thought Lindsey might be. It took me awhile, but I finally spotted my best friend along with – Jenny? Well that was unexpected.

When I reached them, I saw that Lindsey had stopped crying and Jenny looked as if she were sleeping.

I plopped down next to Lindsey and tried to cross my legs Indian style, which took a while because I was wearing a dress even though I could've sworn I was last in jeans. Anyway, I propped my elbow up on my knee, cupped my head in my hand, and faced Lindsey.

"Soooooo," I drew out, "when did Jenny get here?" I glanced at the red head wondering how she took her death. Hopefully better than I did. I clenched my fist at the thought, but immediately let it go as the sadness took over instead.

Lindsey sighed, "A while ago. She showed up after you left." I nodded my head in understanding. I felt sorry for Lindsey; she seemed to have been dealt the job of telling us we died. I shivered; I certainly wouldn't want to be the bearer of bad news.

I looked down at the grass we were sitting on and started to pick at it. I was bored and depressed, not to mention filled with a thousand other indescribable emotions. Boredom, however, seemed to take up the most room. If anything, I'd go crazy from boredom instead of my being dead. Odd considering that I'm used to being bored. Hmmm, maybe those other thousand emotions are screwing with my head.

There was a rustle of grass and we looked over to see that Jenny was waking up. Her red hair (actually more of an orange color, but she refused to acknowledge it) ruffled slightly from laying down.

"Hey Jenny," She turned to look at me.

"Oh, hey Katie, Lindsey told me you were here too," Jenny shifted her position.

"You ok?" I asked. Her light brown eyes were filled with sadness; more than likely mirroring Lindsey and my own.

"Not really," she replied.

"Yeah," I said not really knowing how to respond. I thought back to the crash and felt my eyes start to water. I was really emotional today which sucked because I prided myself on my ability to be rational. Yup, no way was I going to be one of those silly girls who would swing from emotion to emotion like a monkey swinging from branch to branch chasing after some silly banana.

Blink…Blink

I wonder if I hit my head. Why else would I say something weird about monkeys and bananas?

I sniffed, and rubbed my eyes with my sleeve. This is defiantly going to take some getting used to. I sniffed one last time (or so I hoped) and tried to pull myself together, pushing the morbid (and slightly insane) thoughts to the back of my mind. When I had that accomplished I got up and started to walk around.

"What are you doing Katie?" Jenny asked.

"Just looking around," I replied as I turned around taking in the sights around us. There's not much to see though and I end up sighing. "Hey do you guys know what happened to Shelby?"

"No," Lindsey answered, Jenny just shook her head.

"I wonder where we are," I questioned quietly. It was a rhetorical question, so I was very surprised when someone answered me.

"Heaven"

I whipped around to see our missing friend walking toward us. She didn't seem as upset as the rest of us about being dead. This surprised me a little bit, but I knew it shouldn't have. Shelby was very religious (not like the other two weren't) and the thought of being in Heaven probably comforted her.

"Hey Shelby," Jenny said greeting our blond friend. Lindsey echoed the same greeting to her.

"Hey, how you doing?" I asked. Shelby shrugged her shoulders.

"Ok, I guess, I mean I always wanted to be in Heaven," Shelby grinned, "Although it's not exactly what I thought it would look like."

Jenny nodded, "I know! Somehow I always pictured clouds."

"With tints of gold," Lindsey added eagerly. Jenny said something that I didn't quite catch and she and Lindsey started laughing. It was catching, like most laughter is, and I soon found myself joining in with them.

"What are they laughing about?" Shelby whispered in my ear.

"I have no idea," I chuckled. And Shelby started laughing too.

After everyone calmed down (which took a while 'cuz you know how friends are) we found ourselves lying in a heap, worn out from our joking around with each other. It's amazing how one bought of silliness can lead to another and another till you can't laugh anymore. Unfortunately the happy high I was on wore off and my thoughts turned to what Shelby said earlier.

Were we really in Heaven?
