-Chapter 7: Taking Me Over-

You don't remember me But I remember you I lie awake and try so hard Not to think of you But who can decide what they dream? And dream I do...

"Liz?" I heard a soft voice say my name. I rolled over and looked at Gordo. "You should get some sleep," he told me. "Yeah, sure.." I said. Sleep. Yeah.. Right. Normally I loved just laying there with Gordo. Both of our parents trusted us, and knew we wouldn't do anything stupid, so we were allowed to stay the night with each other, and lately Gordo had been at my house a lot. I hadn't slept since that night I spent in the graveyard. I couldn't, I knew what I'd dream of. Losing a best friend is nothing like losing a pet. Especially not a best friend who was like a part of you.

I believe in you I'll give up everything just to find you I have to be with you to live to breath You're taking over me

"Lizzie, I miss her to you know. But this is unhealthy. You haven't slept, you haven't eaten, you haven't said more than three words to anyone all week, it's note healthy. Your parents asked if you wanted to go to counseling, but you said know. I'm going and it's helping. You've got to deal with the fact that she's gone," Gordo told me. He was right. I had to. But I couldn't just forget my best friend.

Have you forgotten all I know And all we had? You saw me mourning my love for you And touched my hand I knew you loved me them

I sighed. How was I supposed to face school tomorrow if I couldn't even face Gordo tonight. What if I'm going crazy? I can't get her out of my mind, I just miss her so much.

I believe in you I'll give up everything just to find you I have to be with you to live to breath You're taking over me

And then something happened. I got this strange feeling inside me. It was sort of like a numb feeling. Like everything had just frozen. I had seen Miranda everywhere, but then I saw her no where. I could only feel hate and depression before, now I felt nothing. Everything was gone.

I look in the mirror and see your face If I look deep enough So many things inside that are Just like you are taking over me

And at that very moment I knew what had happened. I had gone emotionless.
