Fiction

It all started with a phone call. The one phone call I wasn't expecting to get , This phone call was supposed to happen like 50 years down the road not now.....................

Several hours before

"Are you fucking kidding me??" I mumbled as i reached for my phone on my nightstand. It had been ringing off the hook for the last half hour.

"Hello?" I said half awake and highly annoyed......

"Kendra this is Val I'm so sorry to wake you up" She said

"It's okay hun I'm just a little grouchy and hung over from last night" I replied Looking over at the clock realizing it was 7:30 in the god damn morning.

"I have some bad news Kendra its about Jimmy"

"What about Jimmy?? Is he okay??" I said Sitting up in bed.

"No sweetie He's not........ Jimmy passed away sometime this morning" Val said as she started to cry

"WHAT?? No that cant be possible!! I just talked to him yesterday, Please tell me this was a joke!!" I replied trying to hold back tears.

"No sweetie its true, Jimmy is gone"
Gone..........

"Mam the plane has landed" Said the stewardess gently shaking me from my thoughts. I looked around to see I was the only one left on the the plane.

"Thank you" I replied as she smiled slightly.

I grabbed my coat and purse and stepped off the plane. This is not how I wanted to spend the last few days of the year Not at all.

I walked into the airport and noticed Brian's brother Brent looking for me. I walked up to him and he quickly pulled me into a hug

"I can't believe this is happening I keep hoping this is some awful dream and I'll wake up any minute and things will be okay. Lets get your things and get out of here everyone is at Shads house waiting for you" He said letting go of me

I nodded my head and grabbed my bag and followed him to the car, the car was silent and seemed to take forever to get to Matt's house. We pulled into a spot on the street since the driveway and yard (Yes I said yard) had cars parked there already. We got out and I grabbed my bag and followed Brent into the house. I was immediately grabbed by Matt and pulled into a hug

"Thank god you are here" He mumbled
"Matt what happened??" I whispered

"We don't know Leana said she had gotten up to use the bathroom and came back to bed and went to snuggle up to Jimmy, and he wasn't breathing, She freaked out and called us and 911, The detectives are still there, they asked us if he was suicidal Kendra" He replied with tears running down his face

I looked around at everyone they all had the same expression on their faces. I just stood there not saying anything, I think maybe I was expecting Jimmy to jump out and yell gotcha and we would all have a great laugh, but unfortunately that wasn't ever going to happen

"Kendra sweetie are you okay?"Val asked

"I don't know........It doesn't seem real I just talked to him yesterday, he was going to fly to Arizona tomorrow and we were going to drive back to Here, It was something we had planned for months" I replied

"I know Jimmy told me about it, It was going to be a big party this year since we were all home this year"Brian nodded

I just stared at my feet not saying anything. Listening to everyone cry i think was my breaking point I knew right then and there this wasn't a joke. So i started to cry as I fell to the ground .

"No this cant be true why did he have to leave?? My best friend is gone!!!" I screamed threw my tears. Brian picked me up and walked me to the couch where i pretty much collapsed on it. He grabbed me and pulled me to him.

"Why god why??? Why did you take Him its not fair!! I want my Jimmy back!!" I sobbed as Brian rocked me back and fourth. Everyone gathered around and we all sat there and cried and held each other for the rest of the day.........
