It was a few days later. The Camerons were sitting with the Mannings at Alexia's funeral.
Ellie was giving a eulogy.
"Alexia was always such a wonderful girl. She wasn't just my daughter's best friend and my best friend's daughter. She was like another daughter me. And when I found out she died it was like a small piece of me died with her. She will always be remembered in our hearts and everyone who knew will miss her and love her forever. She was also the type of person you never even would dare to forget because she was one of the nicest girls in the world and I remember she would always try to make as many friends as she could. Wherever she is I hope she knows that she is forever loved."
"Would anyone else like to say a few kind words?" the priest asked.
"Go sweetie" Ellie whispered quietly to Lindsay.
"I can't"
"You won't feel better till you do"
"You expect me to feel better?" Lindsay asked loudly but getting up and walking to the front anyway.
She looked at all the rows of people, she saw friends, family, and the people she blamed for Alexia getting drunk. She started to talk.
"My mom said it would make me feel better if I came up here and talked. I don't know what to say. She was like a sister to me and we shared everything together. Everything from parents to clothes to homework to boys. I never imagined life without her and now, at seventeen, I have to spend the rest of my life without her, We've already experienced so much together, but there's so much more to experience. When we were fourteen we promised each other we would be each other's maid of honor and go to the same college but now we can't. And I'm always going to miss her and love her like a sister. I don't think I'll be able to ever find another friend like her" Lindsay said crying.
It was a few hours later at the memorial/ reception being held at the Mannings. There were pictures of Alexia and flowers everywhere. There was also a slideshow of pictures of Alexia on the big screen TV in the living room. Lindsay was sitting in Andrew's lap and the two of them were crying and hugging.
"Andrew" A voice came from behind them. It was Andrew's dad, Gavin Mason.
"Yeah dad?"
"Your mom wants us to drive over and pick up Sean's sister and her daughter at the Cameron's"
"Is it okay if I go Lindsay?" Andrew asked rubbing her back.
"Yeah, I'll be okay" Lindsay whispered standing up so he could go.
"Hi, sweetie. How are you holding up?" Lindsay's mom asked as she walked into the kitchen where Ellie was talking to Manuela Yorke and Emma Wilson.
"I'm as good as I can be I guess" Lindsay answered shrugging.
"That was nice of you to give a talk at the funeral" Emma said.
"I know it's not easy talking at funerals and you did well" Manuela added.
"When did you talk at a funeral?" Ellie asked.
"When my parents died ten years ago." she answered.
"Oh I'm sorry. Guess who called, Lindsay" Ellie said.
"Who?"
"Sasha, she gave birth to a baby girl and she named her Alexis in honor of Alexia"
"That was nice of her"
"I can't wait to meet my grandbaby" Emma added.
"Sean and I were thinking of taking a family trip to visit them. But it might be hard with everything going on with his sister." Ellie said.
"What is going on with his sister anyway?" Manuela asked.
"She lives in a town an hour or two away and her husband of I think eleven years abused her really bad. He started threatening to kill her last year. She decided to contact Sean and he didn't want to get me or the kids involved in it so he stayed with her in a hotel forty-five minutes away from here. Sometimes they stay at her house. She has a four year old daughter who Sean told me was terrified of him at first because her stupid father" Ellie explained.
"That's terrible, but why didn't you or Sean know about her before?" Emma asked.
"The Cameron's gave her up for adoption because they didn't think they could afford any kids after Sean was born even though they are only a year apart." Sean added. He had been standing at the door the whole time.
"Is she here yet?" Ellie asked.
"Yeah. She's talking to Paige"
"Uh-oh. I better go save her" Ellie joked walking into the other room.
Lindsay was sitting on the front steps of the house. She didn't feel like being inside anymore. Miranda Clifton and two friends, Jane Tenon and Chrissy Leger walked up to her.
"We saw you and Alexia fighting at the party" Miranda started.
"Oh?" Lindsay said not sure what the point was.
"We also heard you tell her to drive by herself when you knew she was in absolutely no condition to drive" Chrissy added with a rude look.
"I was a little drunk too. I had no idea-"Lindsay started to say.
"I think you had an idea" Miranda said.
"Alexia is dead because of you. You should be dead for not realizing that people can't drive when they've had so much to drink" Jane added.
"I know but-"Lindsay tried to explain as she tried to fight back tears.
"There's no buts especially when you kill someone" Chrissy said rudely as the three girls walked off.
Lindsay just sat there trying not to cry. She ran inside into Alexia's room and saw Ashley there crying on her dead daughter's bed.
"Ashley?" she asked crying.
"What's wrong? That was stupid of me to ask" Ashley said looking down and wiping her eyes.
"A few girls from school came up to me and- they- they said it was my fault" Lindsay finished sobbing now as Ashley hugged her.
"Sh- sh sweetie it's okay. I know it wasn't your fault" Ashley told her, also crying.
