Chapter XIII

Avianna woke up in her bed. She had tears on her face. She remembered everything. She started to cry more. That couldn't have been a dream, it couldn't have. She started to cry at the very thought of it being just a dream.

It was still in her head during school, it couldn't have been a dream. It was too real. Too real. That wasn't a dream, it wasn't.

When she got home from school, she was overwhelmed. She didn't know what to do. Her 'friends' thought she was going insane and didn't talk to her for the rest of the day.

She flopped down on her bed, and fiddled with the stuff in her jacket pocket and looked up at the ceiling. She felt a small piece of paper in it, and pulled it out. She unfolded it, and in tears, she read:

Avianna,

I hope you're not in too much pain now. I'm awful sorry I couldn't save you in time. I'll always remember you, and so will Dally and Ponyboy.

Avianna, I started this note for you while you were in the hospital. Everyone thought you were gonna die, but I guess we should've known you were tuffer than that. I knew you were going to have to leave soon, that's why I made this note for you. Listen, everyone's going to miss you, especially me 'Anna. You brought a new meaning to my life, something more for me to live for. Look, I already know that you might be worried that I might kill

myself, but here's something you taught me-I'll always remember you. You have a special place in my heart, Avianna McKeehan.

I remember the night, the first night that we kissed, the day you said you loved me. No one can take that feeling away from us. No one can take that moment away from us. You'll always be with me Avianna, and I hope one day, we'll see each other again.

P.S. If you're reading this note, you're wearing my jacket.

The End...or is it?
