A.N: my oh my thanks for all the reviews! this is the most reviews i've ever gotten on one of my stories here (but then again i only have like three...)


The next day, around three in the morning, I watched as Massie crept her way into the guest house. Trying very carefully not to make any noise. She slowly made her way into the front door and glanced around, there was no one in sight. Wearing a pair of her old Marc Jacobs ballet flats, she tip toed into the kitchen, where the computer was located.

"Massie?" My mother asked, surprised at seeing one of the Blocks come into her house at such a strange hour. "What are you doing here?" She sniffled. I didn't notice she was crying until that moment, I guess I've been neglecting my family. Having barely watched them since I arrived in this strange heaven. I, instead, had been watching how my friends were dealing.

I saw Massie flinch a little bit, and her amber eyes had a sad glow to them before she sighed. "I-I...I miss her."

My mother rushed to her side, and grabbed her in for a hug. I watched as Massie shook a little bit, but for once accepted one of my mothers hugs. "We all do."

"I couldn't sleep." Massie said, tears glisening in her eyes. "Mrs. Lyons?"

"Yes?"

"Can I stay the rest of the night here..." Massie asked, looking around the guest house and then looking at the computer. I swear, this girl could be an actress.

My mother nodded her head, and said. "Of course." Before getting up and grabbing a bottle of water. "Would you like one?" Massie shook her head no, and laid herself down on the couch.

"Would you like me to stay out her 'til you fall asleep?" My mother asked, sitting down on one of the chairs.

Massie nodded her head, "Please."

Soon, Massie had looked like she had fallen asleep and my mother grabbed a blanket and placed it over her. Before leaving the room, I saw my mother stiffen and I realized how much she missed me at that moment. She found herself wishing it was me she was tucking a blanket around, not Massie. "Goodnight, Massie." She whispered, brushing her hand across Massie's face before slipping out of the room.

Massie waited twenty minutes before sitting up from the couch and glancing around to make sure my mother was no where in sight. "It's show time." She whispered to herself, and walked over to the computer. It was on, having been used by Todd that morning. She made sure to mute it, before logging off of his name and getting on mine.

Since logging onto the computer as me required no password, Massie had an easy time getting on. But once the internet popped up to sign on to AOL INSTANT MESSANGER, she froze. It was asking her for password, and she had no idea.

She tried "Ilovecam", failed. "ClaireCam", failed. "Blondie", failed. "LittleLyons", failed. She was just about ready to stop trying when I started yelling "Gummy!" from my heaven. It was so obvious, how did she nawt know?

I watched as she shuddered a bit, like she heard what I said. "Hmph." She said to herself, "How 'bout gummy..."

"Welcome Clairebear! You have 10 new emails, 45 new junk mail messages..."

"Yes!' She said softly, and went to my buddy list.

SariSari123: what r u doin on so late?

Massie rolled her eyes and smiled. It seemed that all of them were on. But then found herself frowning, and feeling bad for my old friends. They had no idea what was going on.

Clairebear: this is so nawt Kuh-laire.

She saw that Sari was typing, and sighed. She totally didn't want to tell these LBR's that their BFF was murdered. But she had to. She did, afterall, feel a connection with these girls. She might as well put up with them...

SariSari123: uh-huh, right. well then, who is this? i know it's you claire. mandy and sarah r staying the night. they say hi.

Clairebear: call this number 555-643-9871

SariSari123: ??

Clairebear has signed off.

Massie turned off the screen to her computer and walked over to the couch, where she saw her cell phone vibrate. "Already? That was fast!" Massie whispered to herself, rolling her eyes. "Such total LBR's."

"Claire!" A girls voice boomed through the phone. Massie could hear "What a Girl Wants." playing in the background of the phone. "You got a cell phone for Christmas? What kind? I can't believe your parents let you get one!"

Massie rolled her eyes for the billionth time that night and smiled to herself. Knowing that I obviously hadn't told them that Massie gave me a cell phone not to long ago. I was glad to see Massie acting like herself, but I could tell she was just putting on the front so no one would actually know how bad she was feeling.

"This isn't Kuh-laire!" Massie whisper snapped into the phone.

"Well who is this?" The girl said in a frustrated tone. "This is Sari, her best friend."

"Well," Massie whispered into the phone. "This is Massie Block. Her best friend."

"Glad we got that out of the way." Another girls voice snapped into the phone. "I'm Sarah. And you better tell me why you were on Claire's screen name, right now!"

"What are you my mother?" Massie chuckled into the phone, and then realizing this phone call was going downhill slowly and it was not a joke. Getting serious, she cleared her throat. "Just. Shut up, I have something important to tell you."

"Yeah right." Sarah...or was it Sari's voice boomed in through the phone.

Massie sighed, and I saw a tear trickle down her cheek. Her voice shook into the phone, and it wasn't the fake kind of sadness she had used with my mother a few minutes ago. It was real. "She..."

"On with it!"

"She died." Massie said, starting to cry a little bit and hating herself for doing so.

"Liar."

"I'm nawt lying!" Massie said into the phone, wipping her eyes. "You can call her parents if you don't --" And the line was dead.

Massie sniffed, and curled under the blanket. This was way to hard. And worst of all, they didn't believe her.


As I was watching my friends go through life without me, one day I found myself watching Josh Hotz get ready for bed. I found it weird that on his bedside table he had a photograph of me next to a one of Alicia. One of the nights I watched him, I noticed him talking to it. I then realized that while the kiss I shared with him meant nothing to me, it meant everything to him. I saw the sadness build up in him, the anger fire him up as he started to act up more in school.

He often thought, why her? Why he had to fall for a girl who would end up being murdered.

"Claire." He whispered to my picture one night, picking it up and slowly studying my face as if he was going to forget what I had looked like on earth. "I miss you..."

He sat it back down on his nightstand, and glanced at it before laying back. "I-I...I was going to ask you to be my girlfriend...but I just wanted you to be..."

"I wanted you and Cam to be happy." He sniffed, "He's one of my best friend...if you're listening...I still care about you. I'll never forget about you. Keep an eye on all of us, will ya? Especially Massie and Cam...there's only so much I can do to keep an eye on those two..." He glanced toward the window, and looked outside at the snow that was currently falling. He saw that there was a full moon, and sighed. Slowly he rolled over and closed his eyes, trying to fall asleep and to get his mind off of everything that had been happening.


Next update: A little bit from Olivia! And, Kristen. Of course, Massie will tell Cam about Sarah Sari and Mandy not believing her...
