"K-k-kate come quick. It's Maria. She's, she's, she's." Then started crying. I couldn't bare it. I knew I shouldn't have done this. I went to my room and waited. This was going to be a depressing Twenty-four hours..
Kate was finally here. I looked at the clock. 10:05 P.M. Whoo. 23 hours and 55 more minutes to go. I sank back down. The cool thing about being dead was that I float and fly and go through walls. I'm pretty much a ghost observing them. I was floating above the table I left the note on. "Oh... No... Ma... I can't believe Ma would do this." Kate said. She read the letter then gasped. "Should... Should I call the boys?" Her voice was shaking. So people do care, I thought. I floated down. They were both crying. I tried to give them both a hug but I went right through them. My mom shivered.
"D-d-did you feel a cold breeze?" She asked Kat. She nodded. They pulled themselves together in the next five minutes. "You get the boys, I'll get 911." My mom said, her voice still shaking. Kat nodded.
Kat walked into the other room. I decided to follow her because hearing what the boys had to say. The reason the boys weren't with her was because they wanted to stay at the party more and so she got a ride here with Billy Ray not telling him why though. From what I heard. Kat finally got an answer and decided to put it on speaker so she'd hear it better.
"H-h-hey.. Kev? It's Kate... You have to get to Ma..Maria's house ASAP." Kat told Kevin. A song was booming vaguely in the background.
"Dude what's up? Why is your voice shaking? What happened?" Kevin asked Kat. She gulped and gathered up her strength.
"It's Ma..Maria. Th-the reason she left early is. Because. She. comitted su-s-suicide." Kat said to Kevin. Kevin let the last two words sink in before he yelled.
"WHAT!?! I'll get the boys right away! This can not be happening. No... It can't be." Kevin said to her. There was some murmering like "what's going on?"s or "why is Kevin screaming?"s.
"Kay' see you soon." Kat said hanging up. She walked back to the room with my mom and I followed. They decided to talk for a bit while waiting for the police and the boys to come.
"I can't believe she loved Joe all this time." My mom said. I never was too open to my mom. I never told her many things after the Freshman year incident.
"She didn't tell you because of what happened in Freshman year, Clarita" Kat said. We both called eachother's moms by their first name cause we're that tight.
"Well that was a mistake. -Sighs- If only I got home earlier. This wouldn't have happened." My mom said. Kat shook her head.
"No it's my fault. If I wasn't too busy flirting with Chris Brown I would've delayed her long enough or stopped her and asked what was wrong." Kat said. Their eyes were starting to well up until the doorbell rang. I checked the clock. 10:15 P.M.
My mom started to run to the doors and saw the boys at the door each with surprise on their face.
"Clarita! What happened? Why did she?" Joe came and asked first his face tight. My mom pointed to a letter on the table. He started to run towards the letter until he saw my body still floating. They would've taken it down earlier if I didn't break the ladder when I kicked off from it. He gasped. He started to shake, walk towards the letter, picked it up, and then read it.
"I don't understand though. Maria always seems so ha-" Nick started, but then was interupted by Joe. More appropriately his crying. He was bent over on the floor crying, the letter still perfect in his hand.
"AGH! W-why? W-W-why was I so blind. AGH!" Joe said his face still tight. Kevin took the letter and began to read it to. His eyes teared up and Nick took it. He also began to cry.
"WHY! W-why did I have to mess this up! I-I-I l-love her too! But that g-g-irl. She... She... AGH!" Joe said still on the floor crying. I was stunned. He loves me too? But, then what about the girl. Nick pulled JOe up and looked him straight in the eye. Joe began to slowly breathe, then calm down. I looked over my shoulder. 10:20 P.M.
"J-joe... Be calm and t-tell us about the g-girl..." Nick said to Joe. Joe's face got less tense but he was still crying. He started to slur when he talked.
"Wrell der re-resun tha' I di-din't stop wers becurz she spiked all seven furt puches wif' vodker, and me head's a liddle clearer now but evurthin' wers blurry at the pardee." Joe said, now that his face was less tense, with a drunkard accent. Everyone looked apalled, including me. It was silent until there was more knocking on the door. I started to cry. So I killed myself for no reason. That sucks.
"Ma'am this is the police. We have got a call on a reported suicide." A man with a burly voice said. My mom opened the door. It was the police. I looked at the clock. 10:30 P.M. My First hour of torture is almost up. The police started to observe my body that was hanging and the ambulence rushed in soon after. Great. My mom shooed the kids (everyone but her) away into the kitchen while she talked to them. I decided to see what the 'children' were going to do while my mom talked to the authorities.
Once inside the kitchen the first thing Kat did was go inside the refrigerator and get Menudo. She gave it to Joe who started to eat it. Everyone had a stern face. After a minute of silence and sounds of Joe eating, Kevin began to talk.
"I don't understand though. She should have atleast told you Kate or one of us. We could have stopped her but she didn't even tell us. She just left. No word. Nada." Kevin said. Kat's face started to tremble then she broke into tears again. (A/N: I'm not gonna do the stutter thing anymore when they cry, you can just imagine it)
"It's my fault! I could have stopped her. I just let her go. She slipped away. Just out of our reach. Out of mine..." Kat said. More silence after that. Joe then began to talk, his drunkard accent clearing up.
"What's going ter happen now. I feel responsible for this. If I wasn't so thirsty, I wouldn't have drank ser much." Joe said. Kat shook her head. I sighed. Another flaskback. I could feel it.
"It's not just that, but I'm guessing what you did reminded her of the day she lost her old bestfriend. Like she thought she lost you." Kat said. Oh dear, not THAT flashback.
"Never heard this one. I only know vague details about her." Nick said. Kat sighed, knowing she'd have to tell it.
"I'll tell you guys, but this one sucks. It's also the day I became her new BFF though." She said. I sighed, I remember that day. "Well it all started..." (A/N: Told from Maria's POV, not Kat's)
Flashback
Me and Jamie were sitting in the field watching the boys play basketball in sixth grade. No one came to tease me anymore because the authorites found out about the principal's evil ways and they arrested her, so now Mrs. Shaney was the Principal. Me and Jamie were discussing how glad I was that the Creeps and Pervs couldn't terrorize me anymore. Only the Ice Pops. We call the populars Ice Pops because their cold, mean, and popular. We secretly wish we could part of them cause it was only me and Jamie.
While we were discussing this, an Ice Pop named Britney came up and started to say how lame my Ross clothes are. Then she started to compliment how cool and in Jamie's Abercrombie clothes were. Britney smiled then went back with her other Ice Pops. Me and Jamie looked at each other with confused gazes. Britney came back with her crew. Two of them took Jamie's hands pulling her away. They started talking to her, they were smiling, being nice, and pointing at her nice clothes. I sighed, I knew where this was going. They were befriending Jamie, taking her away from me. Not good.
"Haha, now what are you going to do with your best friend gone dork?" Britney began the assaults. Next the three other girls there started to attack me. "Haha yeah, a Dork like you can't even stand up for yourself. HA!" "I can't believe guys want to knock you up! You're so ugly! I bet it's just cause' of your boobs." "Haha I know! They probably go up to you and are like 'Pst hey Breast Fest, can I have a tease? I'll give you ten bucks." There were more derrogative comments for the next five minutes. Until I started crying. Fortunately when I started, Kat came in and stopped them. Being the principals daughter, the other girls stopped and walked away. That's how it all started.
After that Kat became my new bestfriend, and Jamie became an official Ice Pop, like she always wanted.
End Flashback
"Wow, I never knew." Nick said. They other boys nodded. I looked at the clock again. 15 minutes til' 11:00.
"You know, Ma never told me, how'd you guys meet?" Kat said. For the first time since 10:00 o'clock someone laughed. It was Joe.
"I remember that all too well." He said. I smiled, one of the greatest moments ever. Another flashback. (A/N: Once again Maria's POV)
Flashback
My mom and I were at the mall in the end of seventh grade. I was a lot happier ever since I met Kat. Mom said she would get us some ice cream and that I should go inside a store. Naturally, the closest thing there was the pet store so I went in to see the cute dogs. There was only a boy around my age in there looking a cute dog in a cage. He was cute too. I blushed. I don't remember how this bit happened but we ran into eachother, head to head. It was funny.
"Ahh!" I said. I fell to the floor and landed on my butt.
"Oh, I'm so sorry!" The boy said. He helped me up. "By the way, I'm Joe. Joe Jonas." He smiled at me. I thought it made him cuter. I smiled back. "I'm Maria... Cute dog you were looking at." He smiled even bigger.
"I know right?" He responded. He suddenly looked out the door. "Oh! I have to go. Hey you should come with me I can introduce you to my brothers!" He told me. I nodded.
End Flashback
"So that's how it happened? You introduced her to the brothers and now it ended up like this..." Kat stated a bit surprised that I didn't meet them all at once. It was still a heavy mood though. I looked at the clock. Ten til' Eleven. Nick changed the subject suddenly.
"I should call Miley. She cares about Maria." NIck said. The other thought for a moment. They nodded simultaneously. Nick took out his fancy iPhone. He dialed her up. Kat started biting her nails. Joe rummaged through the fridge for orange juice to clear the nasty alchohal taste. Kevin just sat, hunched over, thinking. Nick put it on speaker.
"Nick! Where are you? The party started getting even more exciting when you guys left for so-" Miley started but stopped when Nick started to stutter. "M-miley. It's Maria. She... she.. she's... dead." Nick said crying at the last word. The others were holding back their tears. Nick's voice was shaking throughout that sentence.
"WHAT!?! When... What.. How..?" Miley managed to breath out. Her voice was shaking. Nick was crying so much so Kevin took over.
"Miles, it's Kev. Maria... as you know did not have the best past. Due to some circumstances, she comitted suicide." Kevin told her as calmly as she could.
"I'll get over there as soon as possible!" She said. Then she hung up. I transported to Miley Ray's House and saw what was up. She was on stage.
"Everyone Party's off. Please get out as soon as possible. Daddy get over here." She said over the mike. Everyone was confused but complied due to her scary bodyguards. Once Billy Ray got over Miley whispered in his ear, his face turn pale. I looked at the clock. 10:55 P.M. I transported back. Everyone was back in the main room. My body was on the table. My mom was was crying over my body, she was hugging me, her face near my collarbone. My close friends were huddled around me, watching her. The authorities were watching, their faces not too happy. Time passed. 10:59 P.M. My door bell rang. The Cyrus' were there. Miley rushed over to where my mom was. Her eyes turned wide and tears welled up in her eyes. Billy Ray eyes watered too. He shook his head slowly. I looked again. 11:00 P.M.
