of her head to try and stop the bleeding, and called nine-one-one. While the ambulance was coming, I tried to get the quad off of Lily, but it’s too heavy. Then I see a guy around my age walking down in the desert, and I screamed for his help. When he finally gets here I asked him if he can take the quad off of my sister Lily.
“I could try,” he said. He gets both hands on the quad and lifts it up. I dragged Lily out from under there, and then he puts the quad back down.
“How did you do that?” I asked.
“It doesn’t way that much.” he said. When I finally looked at him, he had purple eyes, and has long black hair. “Here let me take her” he said. I hand Lily to him and we head towards my house but the ambulance arrives before we get there, we hand Lily to the paramedic but after I handed her to him he said “didn’t we save you from a gunshot a few days ago”.
“Yeah” I said. Right then and there I saw my mom and dad run towards the ambulance.
“What happened.” my mom said.
“Lily had an accident with her quad.” I said.
“You were supposed to be watching her!” my mom yelled.

“I was watching her!” I yelled back. “She was the one going full speed when she rammed into the rock. It’s not my fault!” I walked away from there, into the house and to my room. I heard a knock on my door; I walked back to my door and opened it. It was the guy that helped me with Lily.
“Your mom let me in.” he said. He was quiet for a second, “Can I come in?” I was quiet, and then I let him in.
“My name’s Elena by the way.” I said while I closed my door.
“Jake.” he said. Once I turned around and he was holding a black rose in his hand. When I looked at him again he was staring at me. I didn’t know what to do so I just looked away and went down to my second room. Once I was down stairs, I looked at the wall were the picture usually apiaries, and it wasn’t there this time. I just went straight to my piano and just sat down and started playing a song that has been playing in my head all day. It was a soothing song. More like a lullaby, then anything else. It was soft, clean cut, and mellow. Even when I was playing it I felt like I was falling asleep. I stopped playing when I felt my phone vibrate. I answered it without looking at the caller ID.
“Hello.” I said into the phone.
“Elena.” my mother’s voice said.
“Mom.” I said.
“Elena, Lily’s gone.” she said.
“What?” I asked shocked.
“She’s gone.” my mom said. I didn’t really hear her, because my mind went blank. I didn’t want to think of anything right now. All I was thinking about was that it was my fault Lily died, because I was looking at her when she crashed.
“Elena?” I my mom called through the phone. “Elena.” I hung up on her. After I hung up the phone, I paced around in the living room. When I couldn’t take it anymore I ran to my room to the two double doors went down the stairs grabbed my easel through it to the ground and it broke. I even ripped up all my drawings and paintings that I drew. Once I stopped I got really dizzy and I ran upstairs to my bathroom and throw- up. When I just sat there on the cold tile floor, Jake came walking in, picked me up from the floor and walked with me in his arms to my bed and laid me down. I didn’t fall asleep but I did lie down and just looked out my window.
Chapter five~The Funeral

Today’s the day of the funeral for Lily. I was in the back of the burrier about to cry. Then all of a sudden Jake is there and comes and comforts me.

When we finally get home, I go into my room angry and sad at the same time. I open up the two double doors that lead down to the second part of my room. I walk to my piano, sat down, looked up and realized that there was a different painting on the tiled wall. It was two hands that are praying, with sunlight around them, and then there is a cross over them coming down. I knew that meant something, but I didn’t know what. Then I heard a voice coming from the fountain behind me. I turned around to look, and saw a blur that look a lot like Lily. I get up, and start walking towards it. Then it says something that I can barely make out.
“I like what you have here. I love it actually “it said. “Never forget me.” Then it slowly disappears into a mist. I just realized that it must have been Lily. I really didn’t want to think I was seeing stuff but then again I have for the past week. First it was the blood from my wall from the picture, then that disappears, and then I see my sister Lily as a spirit in this room, but not in any other room. See that’s what I don’t get. Everything happens in this very room. Something’s up with this room, I thought to myself. I wouldn’t even forget her anyways. I love her. But it’s still my fault.

Later on after I went back up to my room, I grabbed my keys and drove around town. It was already ten o’clock at night when I finally decided to go home, but on the way I grabbed something to eat from Mc Donald’s. I actually decided to go to a park and sit at a table and eat. I didn’t really feel like going home right now. I didn’t feel like going home period. While I sat there under a tree, I saw this guy that was sort of thug like, and he looked cute. Really cute. He looked like he was about 5 foot 11. He has light skin, and had dark hair, and was wearing a black cap. All his clothes are baggy. He was wearing a white t-shirt, and a black t-shirt, and some blue denim jean. He was with I guess one of his friends, who looked like he was a little shorter than him but he was just two inches taller than me.
“Don’t worry Elena, he wouldn’t be into you.” I said to myself. I got up through my trash away and sat back down but I decided to sit on the floor, and just cry for the love of my little sister. I had my face in my hands, when I heard someone call out:

“Hey?” I heard a voice say. I looked up and it was the guy that was just standing a few feet away from me, the one that I thought was cute. His friend was just a couple of feet away from where he was standing. The guy that was looking at me, just stood there.
“You okay?” he asked. I had to take a deep breath, and then I got up from the floor and was standing right in front of him.
“Yeah, I’m okay.” I said. I whipped my tears that were falling down my face on my long sleeve shirt, and then just looked at him.
“You sure? Because it really doesn’t.” he told me. I had to take a deep breath, and then I just looked away.
“No, I’m really not.”I told him.
“Do you want someone to talk to about it?”He asked. I looked back up at him, and then just looking at him, it felt like everything was going away.
“Yeah.”
“Would you want to sit and talk to me, let everything out of you. “He said. I just nodded my head. I sat down and he sat next to me and just looked at me.
“So what’s wrong?” he asked. It took me awhile to answer him, because tears started falling down again.
“I just lost my little sister in a quad accident.” I said.
“Oh, I’m sorry for your lose. “He told. “How old was she?”
“Eleven.” I answered.
“Wow, that’s young.” he said. I just nodded my head. All of a sudden, his friend that was with him ran towards us.
“ANTHONY!!” his friend said.
“What’s up?”He said. Hmm, I guess his name is Anthony, I thought to myself.
“Dude we don’t have a ride.” his friend said.
“WHAT THE FUCK!!!!! HE’S NOT COMING?!?!?!” Anthony yelled.
“New dude, he’s not.”
“FUCK!!” Anthony yelled again. It was quite for awhile, until I looked at Anthony.
“Do you guys want a ride?” I asked Anthony. They both looked at me, but Anthony was the one that answered.
“Yeah, please. “He said.
“Sure. My cars over there.” I said pointing to my car.
“What the little white Nissan?”His friend asked. I looked up at him, pulled out my keys, pressed the unlock button, then that’s when he saw that I had a 2009 dodge charger, in black, then that’s when his mouth dropped. I started laughing to myself, and just got up and walked to my car.

“Oh hell yeah. Rich girl right there!!!”I heard Anthony’s friend yell. They were walking with me, and then Anthony’s friend got in the back and started checking out everything inside.
“Aye, you never told me what your name was,” Anthony said.
“You never asked.” I said. I turned to look at him, and saw him smiling at me.
“What’s your name?”He asked. I looked at him, and chuckled.
“Elena.”I said.
“Nice to meet you, Elena, I’m-”
“Anthony. I know.” I said.
“Yeah, and that’s Victor.” he said pointing at his friend.
“Well nice to meet you, you still want that ride?” I asked him. He nodded his head and said: “yeah.” he walked to the passenger side of the car and I got in the driver’s seat, put the keys in the ignition, turned it on lowered the music all the way, and rolled down the windows. I was putting in a cd’s when Anthony’s cell phone was going off, then so did mine. I looked at it, and it was my mom. I answered it.
“Hello.” I said. I was still going through some of my cd while she was talking to me.
“When are you coming home?” She asked.
“I’ll be home in a little bit.” I said.
“Where are you at Elena?” she asked again.
“I told you already, I’ll be home in a little bit.”I said again and hung up on her while she was still talking to me. I finally found the cd’s that I wanted,
