Chapter 2- You're Joking Right?!

(Rosalie POV)

As it happened, Miss Bitter Bat's spiteful put-down was the very last thing she said to me, because next day was the start of summer holidays.

I'd got an incredibly significant birthday coming up, my nineteenth, so I had some serious celebrating to do! My star sign is Cancer and if I say so myself, it fits me like a glove. Shy on the outside, with a squishy caramel centre! That's me!

Sometime I wonder what I'd have done, if I'd genuinely understood I only had a few precious days left on Earth. Would I have appeared on TV? Pleading the world leaders to stop all war?

But as it turned out, my last few days were just enjoyably average. And I had to be completely honest with you; all I cared about was finally becoming a mature adult, at last.

The day before my birthday, Den drove me and my two best mates to the local multiplex, to see a cool film with Brad Pitt in it. We all thought he was so hot even though he was old…. Followed by a complete pig out a MacDonald's. My actual birthday was just family. It was nice but slightly boring. Secretly I would have preferred to fast forward to the next day when me any my friends were going to go on a major shopping spree. But then after all that would happen it would be all over for another year. And it would all happen in just 2 days. When, I came to bed my little sister Jade did something really sweet. She came up to me and said "Rosy you are the best sister in the world!" "I'm your only sister you nutcase!" I laughed jokingly.

And without ever dreaming this was my last night on Earth, I fell into a deep peaceful sleep.

And all the time, like summer birds collecting on telephone wires, angels were gathering around me. I didn't realize this then that nobody ever dies alone. EVER. Some people see their guardian angels just before they leave their bodies. I didn't see much actually. My last few seconds on earth went something like this.

One minute I was crossing the road thinking about my birthday tomorrow with my ipod in my ears, humming a tune to my Favourite bands song totally fixated on what im going to do tomorrow, then – BAM- it game over for me! Some drunken driver had knocked down. Just like that.

No, I didn't look down and see myself nee-nawing along in an ambulance. And as far as I remember, I didn't whoosh down a long bright light tunnel and have a meaningful chat with some guy in robes either. I was just – GONE-.

Don't get me wrong. That tunnel stuff could have happened. I could have blanked it out. But here's what I do remember OK?
