I realize I've been standing outside Gabriella's door for about 10 minutes now. I don't know why I keep putting off seeing her. She's my best friend and we've been there for each through everything. I guess I just don't want to see her in the state everyone is saying she's in. I'm lifting my hand to knock but before I do I hear her crying. She's sobbing and mumbling something I can't hear but I know it will be about Josh. That's it I know what I have to do. I have to be there for my best friend. I knock on the door. Nothing. I knock again. She doesn't respond so I slowly open the door. She doesn't notice me come in and close the door behind myself.

She's on the floor leaning against her bed. She is surrounded by pictures and all sorts of things. I can see movie stubs, a teddy bear, scrapbooks as well as different pieces of jewelry. Some people may think she's crazy as at this moment she's holding receipts and a picture and crying her eyes out. But I know that they are receipts of things josh has bought her and that picture is a picture of him. I know that nearly everything in this room is going to remind her of josh. Looking at her now she looks so helpless but I am determined to help her through this. I'm going to promise myself not that I will do whatever it takes to get her through this.

"Gabriella?"

"Gabriella?" As I spoke she slowly turned to face me. She's still and silent but there are tears pouring from her eyes. She's staring at me with an unreadable expression of her face. What do I do? Do I say something? Do I let her talk first? What? Or maybe I should go over and hug her. Ok it's been about 5 minutes now and I really need to do something. I mean I should do something first I'm the one who's supposed to be comforting her.

"Taylor?" she asks as if she's just imaging it. She gently gets up and moves so she is standing about a meter in front of me. "Is it really you?" I smile at her. She's like a child who is scared of asking something in case they're told of for it.

"Of course it's me. Come here" I open my arms and she moves gratefully into then. I hug her tight and she clings to me like I'm suddenly going to disappear and leave her alone. She's crying into my shoulder and I can already feel the tears soaking trough my shirt and leaving a huge wet patch on my shoulder. I don't know how long we have been standing here but I know that this is all she needs right now. She needs someone to cry on and that is why I'm here.

"What are you doing here?" she asks me as she pulls back

"Are you serious? Gabby you're my best friend and you need me right now"

"You didn't have to fly all this way just for me" typical Gabriella even when she is in so much pain and in a situation like this she will always think of others before her self.

"Gabriella you don't have to pretend in front of me. We've told each other everything ever since I can remember. I know you put everyone else before you but right now you just need to think about yourself okay?"

"Thanks Tay that means a lot to me…I just...I… just….cant…believe it happened…" she starts to sob as she slides back down to the floor. I sit down next to her and lean against the bed as I put me arm around her. I don't say anything because I know there is nothing to say. I just have to let her get it all out.

"Why did this have to happen…..why now…how could it have happened now Tay? We had so much planned….our...life….was planned…we had it all planned….and now it's….gone….it's over….it's……changed….why.. …it's not fair….it's not fair…."

"I know it's not sweetie. You didn't deserve this Josh didn't deserve this"

"I know…he's such….a good person….I love him…I love him so much…" this feels awful. I'm sat here watching my best friend sob her heart out and I know that no matter what I say nothing can comfort her right now. She just has to let it out.

"We were going to get married you know….after we finished college….we were going to marry that summer….have a small wedding here in Colorado…..then move to L.A……then he could get into the movie business…..and I could try for a singing career……that's what he wants for me…to sing….he knew that's what I want…..it is….I know people think…I want to be a lawyer…..but I don't…..I never did Tay….I want to sing….I love to sing…..he loved me to sing……he was going to get me a record label when he was a famous director……he told me so…..we going to buy a huge house…..with a pool…..and garden and a porch with a …..a big hammock swing on…so we could look at the stars……like we do here…..and then we were going to have 3 kids……2 girls and boy……we even had names picked out…..he was so sure of it all….of getting everything we wanted……he said as long…..as long as we love each other……we can do anything…..he promised……he promised that he would always love me………he promised we'd get married…..he promised we'd always have each other…….he promised me…..he promised me he'd never leave me….he swore….but he has….Tay he has…..he left when he promised he wouldn't….he promised…..he promised me….."

"It wasn't his fault sweetie"

"I know…but…..he still promised……I just cant believe it….I wont….I wont believe it….he wouldn't do this….would he.....why…why has it happened.…"

"I don't know Gabby I don't know"

"We had it all planned out……he was perfect….our life was going to be perfect……and now….it's over……none of it's going to happen……..all because of a drunken man I will never get my happy ending…."

"You can still have a happy ending"

"No I couldn't. I could never have it with anyone besides Josh. No one will ever be able to give me a happy ending like the one Josh and I could have had"
