The Day I Never Expected To Come

Lacey Laughman

It was October 28th. I was at my cousins birthday party with my best friend. we were having a blast for a while until... sh had gotten on Facebook and asked me if i knew Justice and Austin Meade. I looked at her with the most weirdest look then she had said they were in a car crash with a younger boy Brain Mendenhall.

I freaked out i didn't know what to do and i didn't want to ruin my cousins birthday party but the tears just started to burst. Everyone had gathered around me to see what was wrong which made me feel selfish cause no one was paying attention to my cousin. On the way home my mother and stop father tried their hardest to keep a smile on my face but nothing worked.

My mom had put on a sad song for some reason i did not know. The next day at school that had mentioned what happened to the 3 young boys on the announcements. It killed me inside i balled forever. Me and Justice had just became close again after our horrible breakup and Austin and i were starting to talk more right before the accident. I really wish i could of told them how sorry i was for being rude to them when they would upset me and tell them how much i cared.

His funereal was something i just couldn't take just seeing them lying their in the casket. I had gotten horrible chills. i had seen Justices mom for the first time in like 3 years. amazed me how happy she was to see me there! till this day i cant believe they are gone it doesn't feel the same anymore but for some reason it feels like they are still there. i miss them more and more everyday but i still cant grow enough balls to go to the accident sight or to their grave. went to the accident sight ounce and my stomach hurt so much. i miss them and hope for them to rest in peace.

No matter how hard things get for me i know they are in a better place now and i know that they are thankful for how many people care :) R.I.P Justin and Austin Meade .. and Brian Mendenhall. you all were great people and im sure you will always be in everyone's hearts no matter what <3
