Jamie's POV

The next few weeks were living hell to me. I never would've imagined that I would have to attend one big funeral for my friends and family. I stuck by James' side the whole time. It was too much. At the funeral I couldn't stop crying. It was the worst feeling of my entire life. My remaining friends were also with me. They weren't much better. We had all lost the people that meant the most to us. When I went up to speak for my deceased friends at the service, I couldn't hold in my tears.

"Good morning friends, family, and acquaintances. These people that lay before us were great. They were a great impact on our lives. They were my best friends, one being my sister. They have spread joy throughout the course of our lives. We did so many things together. These people knew how to make a person's day better. They will continue to live on in everyone's hearts and will remain in our thoughts and memories. I will never forget them. Thank you." I said with tears streaming down my face.

I rejoined James and the rest of my friends. They had tears in their eyes from my speech. They comforted me. When we were in the cemetery for their burials, it was almost too much for us. This was our final goodbye. I wanted to scream. This wasn't fair. They weren't supposed to be dead. Finally the service ended and I stood there for what seemed like hours. Finally James came up to me and led me away.

Destiny's POV

A few months passed, and I was worried about Jamie. She would hardly eat or sleep. It was beginning to worry all of us. I knew it was hard on her to lose her best friends and sister. It was hard on all of us, but Jamie was scaring us. She wasn't getting any better.

"Guys we need to do something about Jamie." I said one day when I was in my room with our friends. Jamie was in her room shutting everyone out again.

"Destiny is right. We need the old Jamie back. Well we may not get her back fully but something close to normal would be nice." James said. He knew how I felt.

"Yeah I want her back too. She's always been so much fun to hang out with. But what do we do?" Logan asked putting his arm around me. We were finally together after I became Jamie's foster sister. He made me feel better.

"We should start with confronting her about it. Then we force her to come to Santa Monica Pier with us. We can go to Pacific Park. She'd have so much fun that she'll remember some of the great times we've had together and forget about being sad and know that life goes on." Kendall said.

"That's a great idea Kendall!" I shout and throw my arms around him in a giant hug.

"I have a question." Carlos cut in.

"Yes Litos?" I asked.

"Can we get corndogs while we're there?" My buddy asked. Of course Carlos would ask a question like that.

"Of course we can dude." I laughed.

"Yes!" Carlos yelled in triumph. The rest of us laughed at him. He was so weird.

"Well let's go talk to Jamie." Rachael said and we followed her into Jamie's room.

Kendall's POV

"Hey Jamie. We need to talk to you." I said as softly as I could.

"What's up Kendall?" Jamie asked with a sad look in her eyes.

"You've been sad for quite awhile and we're worried about you. This isn't healthy. This is why we're taking you to Pacific Park. You're going to have a great day and like it." Rachael said with fierce look on her face.

"I don't really feel like going guys. You can go. Leave me here." Jamie said and turned away from us.

"That's it. We didn't wanna have to do this, but you leave us no choice. Grab her!" Destiny screamed and we ran for Jamie. She struggled but couldn't get out of our grasp.

We had a great day. At first Jamie was still sulking but she warmed up after a little bit. It was way better now that she was smiling again. At the end of the day we all went home happy and Jamie remained strong. She really did miss being happy.

James' POV

It was a year after our friends had died. We were back to having fun. It would never be the same but we were still happy. Nothing could take us back in time. Sulking wasn't going to help any. Besides, tonight was an important night. I was on the way to Jamie's house to pick her up. We were going on a special date. This was going to be great. I arrived at her house and knocked on the door. She answered and my jaw dropped. She was wearing a beautiful green dress and black heels. I took her hand and led her out to my car.

Jamie's POV

"James where are we going?" I asked.

"Patience sweetheart. You'll find out when we get there." James told me.

"Okay." I sighed. This was great. I put my head on James' shoulder and closed my eyes. This was going to be a long trip.

"Jamie we're here." James' words pulled me out of my dreams. I must have fallen asleep.

"Wow. This is absolutely beautiful!" I said in surprise as James helped me out of the car and led me towards a huge boat.

"So you like it?" My boyfriend asked me.

"I love it. You're amazing." I said and leaned in to kiss him. We had dinner and danced. Tonight was perfect. It couldn't get any better than it already was.

James' POV

We were laying on the deck of the boat looking up at the stars. My head was on James' chest. This was my chance. I knew that this was perfect. I pulled her up on her feet and hugged her.

"It's a beautiful night." I said.

"Yes it is. I wish it would never end." Jamie said with a smile on her face.

"When I'm with you the night will always be beautiful." I told her.

"That's the sweetest thing anyone has ever said to me." Jamie said.

"Well I meant it. Look Jamie. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me. We've been friends for years and been dating for awhile. I love you more than anything. You make me happy. I want to be with you for the rest of my life." I said. I pulled a box out of my pocket and got down on one knee.

"Jamie Lynn Holman, will you marry me?" I asked her.

Jamie's POV

Tears started flowing down my face. I couldn't believe this. I had to say something.

"Yes." I said.

I hadn't thought this night could get any better but it did. I couldn't help thinking that I was the luckiest girl in the world as James slid the ring onto my finger. James and I kissed and started walking back towards the car. I knew that the rest of my life would be full of love. Nothing could bring me down. I knew that I could make it though anything. This was the beginning of the rest of my life.
