Ghost of a Superstar.

"Tell me about
it."
Devon sat down on the bed across from me, tilting his head to the
side.
"Well, it's sorta a long story..."
"I got time."
I sighed and looked back down at the picture of Matt. He looked
so happy, so content. So unaware of what would be right around
the corner for him.
"Well, Matt had been my best friend since we were
little."
I smiled and touched the glass, and I could almost hear
Matt's laugh again, his smile, his voice.
"Since we were just newborns. We were always together. I
think that our parents thought they were setting up their kids to
be together."
Devon half smiled and I giggled to myself.
"Well, anyway, we were attached at the hip. We grew up
pratically like brother and sister. We were always at
eachothers' houses. When I was thirteen, I was hanging out
with Matt in the park. I was on the tire swing and Matt was
pushing me. I can remember sitting on the swing, nervous that I
was going to fall off, but as Matt pushed me carefully, I
remember looking down at him and smiling, and then my heart
leaped in my chest. That was probably the first time that I
realized I had a crush on him."
I set the picture down and turned to face Devon, our legs almost
touching.
"I never told him about it. I was always afraid he would
never speak to me again or be weirded out of something like that.
So, I kept my lips shut. He didn't seem to notice so we just
grew up acting like we were just best friends, nothing
more."
In my head I could remember the sounds of sirens, the flashing
lights, the feeling of my heart being ripped out. I felt tears
begging to fall and I leaned my head back, making sure they
couldn't.
"Well, when just about a month ago, Matt got into an
accident. He was driving home after seeing me, and some drunk
driver came out of no where and ran into him."
My words got caught up in my throat and I took a deep breath. No
way would I break down right now.
"I went to visit him at the hospital and he looked
horrible..."
My voice drifted off as the memories filled my head.
I was sitting on the floor in the hallway of the hospital,
wiping my eyes. The florecent light flikered above my head, the
cold hard floor echoing the sounds of the shoes
scuffing their way past. I looked down and my
finger and noticed the smears of mascara. Great.
"Serena?"
I looked up and saw Matt's mother standing there, her puffy
red eyes trying to be as cheerful as possible.
"Matt wants to see you."
I nodded and stood up, leaning over to hug her quickly before
walking into the room. I saw him laying there in the bed, so
handsome. The brusies, the pale and weak look on his face, the
dark eyes, just a broken angel.
"Serena?"
"Hey Matty."
I walked over to his bed, and my heart shattered into pieces as
he slowly reached over to grab my hand.
"How are you feeling?"
He smiled weekly and said "I'm in a lot of pain... but I
won't be soon."
I frowned and felt the tears falling down my face and landing
onto my pants.
"Matt I'm so sorry. For everything. I should of done
something, and I wish I did. I would of never let you leave
yet."
"It's okey Ser."
"There was so much I wanted to tell you, so many things to
do with you..."
I whispered, and he turned his head closer to me and smiled.
"Tell me now."
"Well, don't you ever thing we would of fell in love?
Had little Ser's and Matty's running around our own
house?"
"Yes..."
I looked at him and he had a weak smile tugging at his face.
"Yes, I think we would of fell in love one day."
He said as if I needed clarification, and his deep blue sea eyes
twinkled at me.
"I love you Serena."
He said to me, and my heart stopped. More tears fell from my
eyes, but these were more happy than sad.
"I love you too Matt."
