Chapter 2

"No!!" I heard a voice call out.

I remembered that voice. I knew that voice. I felw swiftly over to the highschool that I once attented.

"I'm sorry." The reporter turned and left the boy in peace.

It was Shaun! Poor Shaun. There was Lisa and Brittany sitting next to him. Then Lyndsey was on the right of Lisa. They were all crying.

"Don't cry. Please. I'm here." I whispered into all there eares.

'Tiffany?" Lisa asked out loud.

"Yes." I replied.

"its…this is impossible." Brittany said.

"No! it's not. I really am here! Feel that brushing on you hair Brittany?" I was brushing her hair. Then I moved onto Lyndsey. "Feel that soft touch on your cheek, Lulu? And Lisa. That pat on your back? Me." I finally turned to Shaun. I pressed my lips to his. 'Did you feel that on your lips Shaun?"

They all nodded.

"How? I mean…like. What happened?" Lyndsey asked softly.

"I was in a rush. I turned to late." I replied. Even angels can be embarassed by their stupid, reckless accidents.

'It… it was all you?" Shaun whispered.

I looked back onto this morning. Once I thought about it, there was a red car zooming towards me. It looked like it hit me but there was no car there but mine.

"Yes. All me." I scarcley heard my own voice.

They all nodded. The tears kept rushing down their faces.

WHY? Shauns mind asked.

"It was my time Shaun." I replied.

"What? I mean. I didn't ask anything."

"yes. In your mind, you asked Why."

"oh." Was all he said.

I knew they couldn't see how perfect I was so I took a note book and a pencil from Lyndsyes back pack. She was the artistic one. I entered her mind and showed her a picture of me and told her to draw and color it.

Once the picture was completed, she showed the others.

'What the…. What is this?" Brittany asked.

"Its…its Tiffany now." Lulu answered.

"Look! She has her tan!" Lisa yelled.

I chuckled and said,"Its absoluelty heaven!"

Once I said that, I relized it wasn't the right thing to say.

"oh. Sorry you guys. This must be hard for you guys." I muttered.

Everyone just kept starng down at the table.

'Ugh!" I screamed.

The whole cafeteria stopped the chatter, most likely about my death, and everyone turned right and left.

"SORRY!" I screamed.

Everyone went back to their eating and the chatter resumed.

"What was that for." Britt asked.

"Well, see. Its so frustrating not being able to really talk to you guys…"

"Oh. Yeah." Lisa said.

"Shaun/ You ok?" I asked.

"Yes. I'm fine." He replied swiftly but in a whisper.

I looked towards the glass window that overlooked Lake____(Need a name! Any name!)

"Guys! Look!" I whispered.

There was the perfect way to show them what I looked like.

"CoME! NOW!" I demanded.

They snuck out the cafeteria and to outside.

"what are we doing?" shaun asked.

"Go to the lake surface. Just because I just died doesn't mean I am stupid." I replied.

They all sat at the lakes edge and waited.

I walked towards the water and said,"You see me but they don't. Just give them a shimmering hope." I felt some air blast and the water lift up.

"TIFFANY!" everyone yelled in usion.

I sprinted, no, flew over to them. Faster than I was ever before. I hugged them.

"You…you! You…I…tan..white." Lulu looked like she was going to faint.

"Yes. I know."

"Wings? For what?" Shaun asked as he brushed my hair.

The answer was terrifying. I knew what they did and what they were needed for. I had to tell.

"They carry me across. When I officially die they are the ones that carry me across the sky and into heaven. But if you need something, just yell HELp or TIFFANY and I will be there in 5 seconds." I needed to hurry. My body was dispersing. "I have to go." I whispered.

"When will I see you again." Shaun asked as his arms completley slipped through me.

"Soon." Was all I could get out.
