Hey guuuys! I'm back! I'm happy that you guys liked it. And there's one review that said this should be a tragedy rather than a humor. Well... I actually don't know myself. So, I'll change the genre into drama if I didn't get enough humor in it. 'Til then, thank you for the review and play nice! :D
Tori's P.O.V
"Come on... pick up! Pick up!" I've spent the last 2 hours to call Jade back, but there's still no answer. I pushed the dial number with my sweaty hands once again, hoping that this time Jade would yell at me for calling her non-stop while she's busy. I'm sorry, the number you are calling is unreachable for the moment. Please try again later. I've never been this sick of hearing that voice. Oh god, where could Jade be? What's happening to her? Why isn't she calling back? Those are the questions I wanted to hear the answers so desperately since Jade disconnected her phone. After Several attempts of calling, I gave up completely. Maybe she accidentally dropped her phone on the way here? Oh come on Tori! How can you possibly lose your phone while driving? But somehwhere deep inside, I really hope she did.
I put my cellphone down and turned on the TV. And even my favorite show on that TV couldn't get my mind off Jade. I checked my phone every 5 minutes to see if there is any calls or message from her. Jade, where are you...?
A few minutes later, I received a call. When I saw the screen number, it wasn't her. But it was Cat, "Hey, Cat." She was sobbing over the phone. "Cat, what's wrong?" I asked her. "It's J-jade... S-she got hit by... A c-car, Tori..." My heart stopped. "W-what...? Okay, where is she now...?" Cat answered shakily, "I-in Grand Ave Hospital... She's in emergency room..." She continued to sob. "Okay, okay, I-I'll be there." I hung up. My face turned paler than it already was. Jade, why...?

Normal P.O.V
In the hospital waiting room, Cat was leaning on Andre's shoulder, crying her eyes out while mumbling something only she knows, and Andre himself looked depressed. Robbie looked frazzled as he was holding Rex like his life depends on it. And the worst of all is Beck. He was staring at the opposite direction, his outfit was a complete mess, and a deep deep hatred filled his eyes. "I'm gonna kill that guy..." He murmured. When Tori arrived, everyone but Beck gave her a big tight hug. He was just sitting there, too caught up in his thoughts that he didn't even realize that Tori was now approaching him. "Beck..." But Beck still did not make any slight movements. Not even when she pulled him into a warm embrace.
"...H-how did this happen...?" Everyone was dead silent when Tori asked this. But Andre reluctantly answered, "Jade got hit by a black sportscar. And the driver also happened to be drunk that night..." He stopped for awhile, giving Tori a chance to ask further, "So... Was it a hit and run?" He shook his head, "No. The drunken driver was unconscious and was treated here too, but not as badly injured as Jade. Both cars completely ruined as well... And from what it looks like, Jade must've been on the phone when it happened." Tori placed her palms on her face and started crying really hard, "She was talking to me! She was talking to me when the accident happened! I should have hung up sooner when she said she left her makeup kit in my house!" She heard Andre whispered, "Shh... It's okay, it's okay... Jade's a strong girl, just picture this. In three weeks from now, She's going to sit with us during lunch time, maybe talk about some creepy video that she saw online, or maybe she'll come up with a new idea insulting you, and we'll just act like this accident never happened. How's that sound?" She looked at him, still sobbing, "Promise...?" To be honest, Andre couldn't promise that. He didn't even sure himself if Jade would survive. "Sure, muchacha..." After that, Jade's dad and his wife showed up. They were waiting for the doctor.
Finally, the doctor, or as the nurse calls 'Dr. Breslin' came out from the emergency room, his expression was lifeless. That's not a good sign. Dr. Breslin began to speak, "...I'm very sorry, we weren't able to safe the girl... It was too late..." You know, there's this feeling as if you were pushed down a cliff and you were hoping someone would catch you even though there's no one there to help, and then you hit the ground so hard that you couldn't even breathe? Yes, that's pretty much how everyone felt in this moment. Tori still couldn't believe her and Jade's phone conversation a few hours ago would be the last time she'll ever hear her voice. While Beck's eyes were vacant, not wanting to believe that the only girl he ever loved was now gone. Forever.
"You're joking, right...?"
"W-what's that supposed to mean...?" Cat said as if she was suffocated.
Mr. West was just as crushed as everyone else. Jade might not be the best daughter a father could ask for, but that doesn't mean that he stopped loving her. He remembered whan Jade invited him to a play she wrote herself, and Mr. West had to admit, she did an excellent job back there. It was just too sad that he was just lost in his pride, not showing how much he cared and proud of his little girl. And now it was too late to do that.
Beck got up from his seat, "Where are you going?" His face darkened, "To the bathroom.". After Beck was out of the sight, "Wait, isn't bathroom over that way?" Robbie pointed out the opposite direction Beck had gone to. "Yeah, but where would he-" Andre paused for awhile, realizing something was wrong. "Oh, no..." Robbie (still holding Rex) and Andre rushed towards Beck's direction, hoping they would still catch up to him. They were followed by everyone else, including Jade's parents.
The gang had finally found Beck who was heading towards a room. Andre knew that room was occupied by the man who hit Jade in the car crash. They quickly grabbed his arms. "Let me go!" Beck struggled. "Dude, strangling that guy to death won't bring her back! Pull yourself together, man!" Andre exclaimed. "How can that bitch still be alive when Jade is already dead!? Huh!? Come on, I can't be the only one who thinks that guy does not deserve to live!" He yelled back. "No. But you're the only one who wants to strangle him to death. Jade might be a cruel and vicious person, but she wouldn't want to see you become a monster because of her." Andre's word hit him like a wrecking ball. Slowly, tears were streaming down his face as he slid on his knees. Beck sobbed. "That's okay, man... We can't believe that she's gone too, you know... Sooner or later we'll have to accept that..." He cried louder as the gang and Jade's parents pulled him with a tight embrace. They can only pray that Jade would be happy with her new life somewhere.
So... How was it? This chapter only explains Jade's death and how well the gang and her parents take the news. Trust me, if it wasn't for my bad english, this chapter would have been more emotional than this, I'm sorry. 'Til then, read, review, and play nice! :D
