Gone Too Soon

  “It’ll be our secret." He whispered in my ear. I hesitated. My best friend, Moonlight Shine, used to always say that all the time.

She, sadly died.

  I was being home-schooled for junior high. She, however, was not. which really sucked

  One day, she sent me a note by dragon fire. It said Moonlight Shine was sick. She had IBD, a digestive system disease. I wanted to visit her but the doctors wouldn't let me.

  The paramedics, who were in charge of Moonlight Shine's medicine over dosed her. She took too much medicine and she died.  The Paramedics did not know and neither did the doctor. He was not able to get to her in time.

  I feel my tears down my cheek, and I remember,

When I had Hay Fever, she climbed up the Family tree, which is right by my bedroom window, just to give me a get-well card. “It'll be our secret." She told me when a thick branch fell because she was too heavy. It landed in the yard with a huge crash. Then she disappeared.

"It'll be our secret," when she used her mom's expensive beads to make me a friendship necklace. She was not supposed to, of course. Her mom did find out. (After all, I did wear it every day,) But she wasn't mad. She laughed, but Moonlight Shine did end up buying her new ones. I snuck my friend some of my saved up bits. She winked at me and said, "It'll be our secret."

I tried to hold back tears as I thought of these memories. I heard a voice. It was in my head but it sounded like

  Moonlight shine’s, "Don't trust him!"

  He was now uncomfortably close to my body.

  I did not like how he did that. I stared at the pills that fell out of my purse. Moonlight Shine’s death pills that I stole. My parents would be furious if they found out. Then, I realized something. I do not need him. I was with him for some while and I never noticed, that all that time, I was not actually happy. I was experiencing fake happiness. I do not need Him to keep my pills a secret. He would just tell who ever would listen, that I stole pills.

  I also did not need Moonlight Shine to keep these secrets. I could have told on her all along. I could tell them as soon as they happened, but I did not. Because she was my friend and he is no friend.

  "Lavender Dream?" He whispered in my ear.

  His image ran through my head. Black lightning mane and a light blue coat. However, he did not seem like the handsome person I saw two months before Moonlight Shine's death. He looked like an evil dark crone.

  Oh, now I am showing him trouble. "No," I said in a firm voice

  "What?!" He responded "Who do you think yo-"

  "NO!" I cut him off. "I don't need you and I never will. The only thing you've done for me is make me look like a whore."

  "Why you little son of a-"

  "NO!" I cut him off again. "I don't need you. You BITCH!" I gripped my handbag with my magic and walked away. I left him, alone in the rain. With Moonlight Shine's death pills.
