Tori's POV
Fear gripped me.
Not Andre. Please not Andre.
"Who?" I whispered.
"I'm sorry to say Beck didn't survive."
Relief coursed through me while Jade collapsed shrieking.
"NO! NO THIS IS WRONG! YOU'VE MADE A MISTAKE! HE C-C-CAN'T B-B-BE D-D-D-DEAD!"
I felt so guilty.
This is my fault. It's all my fault. My fault Beck is dead. My fault he and Andre were even in the crash. Everything was my fault.
"Is Andre OK?" asked Andre's mom.
"Yes. And if you'd like to see him…" he gestured down the hall. We walked and he showed us his room.
He was just waking when we arrived.
"Hey…" he said. I was afraid he would shout at me. He was surely still furious with me. But he smiled at me.
"How you feeling?" I asked him.
"All right. Bit sore but other than that…"
His mom suddenly enveloped him in a bear hug.
"Oh Andre! You had us all so worried!"
"Why? What happened?"
Oh. Maybe that's why he wasn't mad at me. He didn't remember.
"Well… you were in a crash honey." Said his mother. Suddenly he remembered. Everything apparently as suddenly his head snapped up looking at me.
"Mom, dad could you give me and Tori a minute?"
"Sure honey."
They left.
"Look I'm-"
"Why did you do it?"
"Do what?"
"Sleep with him…"
"Well… I dunno… I was getting frustrated that you hadn't asked me out – I'm not saying it's your fault-" I added as he had just opened his mouth to protest. "And he was having trouble with Jade and we were studying together and… it just happened." He looked at me for a moment. "You know I'd understand if you wanted to break up with me…"
He looked shocked.
"Why would I do that?"
"We've just mentioned why. I slept with Beck."
"But that was before we were together. It wouldn't be fair of me to dump you because of something that happened before we were together."
"So you don't hate me?"
A smile spread across his face.
"Of course not."
His mom and dad came in not long after. Then Andre asked the question I had been dreading.
"So you said I was in a crash" he said feigning memory loss. "Who was in the other car?"
His mom and dad exchanged quick glances.
"Um… Beck…"
Andre sat up.
"Is he OK?"
His mom shook her head with tears in her eyes.
"He…um… he … well he didn't make it…I'm so sorry."
Andre was in shock. He just lay back into the pillows. He didn't talk for the rest of our stay. Then I saw the time.
It was nine in the morning.
I was about to say I was heading home when Jade walked in looking… well looking murderous.
"Tori, could I have a word please?"
"Sure." I said hoping I was wrong about what I thought was going on.
We walked into the hall.
"What's wrong?"
"Why was Beck texting you saying he loved you?" she tried to keep her voice calm.
"What?"
Andre's parents came out telling us that Andre wanted to see us.
We went in and Andre… he told Jade everything.
