It was a long wait to the cemetary. Jackson looking ahead of the driver inside the other car. He could see coffin inside it.
Melissa placed her hand on Jacksons lap.
"I'm really sorry Jackson.." She said. Jackson gave a short nod. And hugged her close.
Eric smiled next to him. He knew what this meant. Although he missed his chance to be with Taylor..He realised friendship is alot more inportant. Then any girl.
"I'm sorry to Jackson.."
Cemetary (Honey stone)
Children, adults. Stood in front of the grave. Slowly luring the coffin inside the ditch..Jackson watched them at work. He turned to Willin, who was damping her dress.
The man began to speak. It was a long speech. Jackson didn't want to go threw it anymore then Willin did.
He walked away...He just walked away...
Toward trees near the road. He sat, thinking to himself. It made him realise what a mistake it was to be here. If he had to hear speeches about her childhood.
What he didn't know, someone was stalking him...
"Hi," A voice said from behind. He turned. To Eric. His face exspresion was different. It was a sign. Of pain.
He sat down next to him. And looked out into the city.
"Can you believe the streets?" He asked.
"Yeah.."
Jackson answered. "It's a never ending marry-go-round."
The
boys turned to each other.
"Jackson...I'm..S-"
"It's..okay.."
He said. Ericrapped an arm around his back.
"Eric...I know I never told you this..but.." He began. Eric released his girp on him. Staring directly into his eyes.
"But..I always
thought of you...As..."
Eric smiled.
"My best friend...And the most annoying kid on the face of the earth." He laughed. Eric laughed with him.
"I...thought the same about you." He said. "I know..I can be alittle...curious But-"
"I-I know." He said. "Right...now, I just wish.." He didn't finish.
Eric frowned. And hugged him close. Never letting him go.
It was a day he'll never forget..
One day later
Jackson had to go to school. Not wanting to, Willin covinced. Though she took him that day.
He met up with Melissa, Eric, Nathan and Daley. Who were waiting for him all morning.
"There you are."
Dale said. "Your late."
"Well trust me guys..I
wasn't even thinking of school today." He said.
They all headed inside. Jackson held onto Melissa's arm. And ran behind the school.
"Jackson?" She
asked. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing.." He said.
Placing his hand on her shoulder. And on on her side.
"Nothing
at all.."
Jackson led. He placed one foot ahead and one
foot back.
"What're you doing?" She laughed.
"Giving you that dance you wanted." He said. Melissa blushed. And fallowed his steps. Though it wasn't a very long dance, to them, it felt like hours.
With the last dance. Jackson bent down and kissed Melissa's soft lips. They broke apart at the sign of the teachers walking by.
"Thanks.." She whispered. And hugged him. Jackson threw his arms around him.
Though something goes wrong. It always has a happy ending.
