Chapter 30 He is dead
• Kylie's POV
Walking down the hallways receiving weird stares from people, why ?
Well who will be in the right sense to walk on their toes quietly in the hallways where it is filled with students ; well that person is me.
I'm not crazy, I'm just trying to...
“ Kylie why are you walking like that ?” Someone asked behind me.
I turned to glare at the person, it was this boy that is in my Maths class, a short blonde haired boy that looks geeky. Just because I wear glasses, he also wear glasses. We become friends, how classy our friendship is.
“ Hey Leo," I waved at him, smiling sheepishly. “ How are you doing ? It's been long.”
Here goes my plan to scare Anna down the drain.
“ Yeah, just a week. Why were you walking like that ?” He asked with concern lacing in his tone.
“ Like what ?” I asked, acting oblivious of what he was talking about, I heard the sound of Anna's locker closing and the sound of her squeals followed.
Before I could turn back, I was attacked by her hugs making me almost stumble but lucky for me I have enough stamina to prevent my fall.
“ I miss you so much," She said kissing me allover the face, I giggled “ I miss you too.” I said hugging her back.
She pull back then interlock my arms with hers, she was bubbling with happiness and it is just because of me.
I'm so lovable.
“ So how was your holiday ?” She asked as we walk down to our class, English.
“ Holiday ? I was suspended.”
“ Well it is more like a holiday to me, you did not go to school for like a week enjoying yourself. That does not look like a suspension to me.”
“ Well it is to me, so I heard you went on a date," I teased biting my lip with my eyebrows wiggling, her cheeks went into deep shade red. “ Awwn, she is blushing. How was it ?”
“ It was so sweet..." She squealed in joy.
I join in her in squealing, as we clasped our hands together jumping on our toes. “ Bore me with details of your date, every single one.”
“ With pleasure.” She said making me giggle.
Then she began talking how her date went as we walk down to class.

“ Where is Cami ? I have not seen her all day.’’ I told Anna as we went to our next class, the third class for today. We don't usually have class together but today tends to be different. Almost all the classes I have for today she has it too.
“ She is not around, she decided to rest after taking a whole week of detention. She quotes : Oh my God, brain needs to rest.” She answered, sitting down at our usual spot which is at the last row, the third seat near the window.
I sat near her dropping my bags on the table. “ Even the boys, I have not seen them.”
“ Yeah me too, I have not seen Ray.”
I turned to face her, a grin crawled it's way to my face, “ I did not only mention Ray, I said the boys.”
“ I said the boys too.” She retorted then turn away to hide her flushed face from me, I laughed then say “ I hear you.”
Dexton enters the class, all the students whipped their heads towards him including us. His eyes were red, his black hair more messier. He looks frustrated, I wonder what happened to him.
When he walked towards us, he picked a bag which was on the seat in front of us then walk out. He did not even acknowledge us, something must be wrong.
I and Anna shared a look trying to understand what just happened.
“ We should probably check on him.”
“ Yeah we should.” I nod agreeing with her.
We went outside to look for Dexton, luckily for us he was not that far, well he was just standing outside the class, so not that far.
“ Dexton what happened to you ?” Anna asks with concern.
“ Nothing I'm fine, why are you asking ?” that was his response which made me scoff.
“ It does not look like you are fine, what's wrong ? You can talk to us we are your friends.” I said to him hoping he will talk.
“ Serious it is nothing, nothing is wrong with me.” He said trying to convince us.
“ Oh save me that bullshit, it is either you tell me what is wrong with you willingly or I will force the answer out of your mouth.” I said threatening him which made him gulp.
Tears started flowing down to his cheeks, “ Ray made me promise not to tell you two, Ashton is in the hospital and I'm going to meet the others there.”
“ What happened to him ?” I asked panicking and hoping it is just a minor sickness even though my mind is saying otherwise. What he said made my heart drop.
“ He had an accident on his way coming to school, the doctor said...that ...he is in a critical... condition , that is what Ray told me. I'm scared Kylie, I don't want to lose him.” He said sobbing with his lips quivering.
Neither do I. I could not say it out, my mind was still trying to process what he said, Ashton can not die, my Ashton can not leave me like that, we still have a lot to do, he is not dead, I'm sure of that. He is a fighter. I was saying all those things in my mind trying to hope he is not gone.
“ We are going with you, I'm just going to take our bags. Kylie he is going to be fine.” Anna said, squeezing my hands softly, assuring me more like assuring herself he is.
When she said it, more hope shattered. That is what they said when my grandma was in the hospital but she was not, so is he going to
Anna came back with our bags, “ Let's go.”

I rushed down to meet the nurse who was at the lobby, she was holding a file.
“ Ma'am please do you know where my friend is, his name is Ashton Lovbian, do you know his ward ?” I asked her , waiting for her to answer.
She scrunched her eyebrows in confusion, “ I don't anyone bearing that name, I will check the records to see who is that.” She replied.
I sighed, “ Please do that ma'am.”
Then Dexton and Anna came running to meet me.
Anna smacked my head, “ You could have injure yourself, what were you thinking jumping out the car like that ? You did not even wait for the car to park !” tears were glistening in her eyes which made me feel guilty.
“ I'm sorry," I said with gaze on the floor.
She hugged me, I hug her back. “ Don't just do that again.” She told me.
“ I won't.”
“ I know his ward, let's go.” Dexton said, we pulled apart then followed him.
We walked upstairs leading to a passage having many rooms. I sighted the boys from a far, Eric was sitting on the chair which his head bent down and his hands clasp together while Ray was leaning on the wall with his arms folded on his chest and his eyes closed.
We walked fast to meet them, Anna went to hug Ray who stiffened at her touch but when he saw it was her he relaxed and hug her back, Anna was crying on his chest.
“ What did the doctor say now ?” I asked them.
Eric rose his head up, he looks weary. “ The doctor is still inside, he has not come out.”
Then the doctor came out with a gloomy look, he shakes his head then say “ He is dead.”
My heart screamed in pain immediately he said that three words, He.Is.Dead. He can't be, I can't loose another person I love, no I can't.
“ Can I see him ?” I asked as tears streamed down from my eyes.
“ Sure.” The doctor nodded his head then paved way for me to enter.
I entered with my heart pounding out of my chest afraid of what I will see, immediately I entered my eyes sighted the bed, it was covered with white sheets. A body is definitely under it , it might not be him. Maybe they just made a mistake saying it is him.
I walked slowly, taking each steps with fear and sadness. I opened the cloth and I saw what my heart and brain refuse to accept.
Ashton lying there not moving or shaking, his eyes closed. I would have said he looks calm and beautiful if not that he is dead.
I placed my hand on my mouth to prevent myself from screaming, shaking my head trying to believe this is just a dream and I'm going to wake but damn it is a reality.
“ Hey Ashton, you can not just die like that. There are still things to be done to get, you can not just leave the Earth like that. I know you are a jerk but you are my jerk so who is going to be my jerk, do you want someone to take your place in my heart," I sniffed, “ I have not frustrated you enough, so don't you dare go okay, prove to them that you are not dead, you are only sleeping.” I said hitting his chest. “ Wake up Ashton, wake up...” I said repeatedly hitting his chest hard.
“ Gosh you hit so hard, you can even wake a dead person up. How can you hit a dead person like that ? Have mercy.” Ashton said groaning in pain as he sit up. He is alive.
I hugged him in joy, “ You are alive.”
“ Yeah I am.” He said, “ it will be awkward to say April fool now, isn't it ?” He laughed nervously.
I pulled away from him and gave him a confused look.
“ April fool.” He said laughing then it dawn to me I go played.
“ You played me ? I thought you were dead, Dexton cried,”
“ Then he must be a good actor," he chuckles. “ He should go for acting, don't you think ?”
I started laughing then he join me too.
“ Why are you laughing ?” he asked still laughing.
“ Because you are dead.” I said laughing.
He stopped laughing, “ Huh ?”
“ I'm going to give you a real death this time," I said with a smirk on my face with a mischievous gleam in my eyes.
“ You don't want to do that right ?” He asks laughing nervously trying to reason with me.
“ Oh I do want to do it, I badly want to.” I remove one of the shoe I was wearing then begin to hit him with it. He tried escaping from my grasp instead he fell on the floor tangled with the sheets, he pushed himself, crawling to the door then stood up and ran away.
I ran after him going outside, he was already far ahead. I turn to glare at the boys who gulps in fear.
“ Why are you looking at us like that ?” Eric asked moving backwards.
“ It was all Ashton idea we just decided to partook in it, because it was fun.” Dexton said laughing, the others joined him.
“ Well it will be fun to watch you all die," I said laughing, they all shared a look then run.
Anna turned to me laughing, “ Are you not suppose to run after them ?”
“ I don't have the strength to do so, I saw an ice cream shop when we are coming to the hospital," I said clasping my hands in delight, “ We should go.”
“ Yeah we should.” She agree interlocking my arms.
