Chapter 21
Rachelle didn't go to Tia's funeral, she didn't do much of anything anymore. She just sat in her room all day and stared out the window to Tia's house. Katelin had tried to get her to come down from her room, to go outside, but she refused. She had grown very pale and had only ate a little bit, it was asif when Tia died so did she. She thought and thought of how she could be with Tia, then it hit her...... suicide. She got out a piece of paper and a pin, and began her letter which would soon follow with her death. She slowly wrote:
To Whoever reads this.......

"Just to be with you I would do anyting, theres no price I would not pay...... And Just to be with you I would give anything, I'd give my life away......."

~Rachelle
She placed the letter on the front door of her house and walked out to the garage with a rope in her hands. She stood on a table and tied the rope to a steel bar near the celling and made a hole for her neck. She said a quick prayer and looked at the rope.
Zac was walking by Rachelle's house when he noticed a not on her door, he thought it might be for Tay so he walked up and took it off and slowly read it. "OMG!!!!!" he ran to his house as fast as he could and showed the letter to Ike and Tay who were on the couch. Tay and Ike jumped up and ran to Rachelle's house. They searched her room everywhere in the house.
"The garage....." Tay said. They ran to the garage and as soon as they opened the door Rachelle kicked the table out from under her. "NO!!!!!!" Tay screamed and ran to her lifting her legs up. Isaac helped hold her up while Zac picked up the table and climbed on it cutting the rope. Rachelle fell into Taylor's arms as he cried. "Don't you EVER do that to me!!! Your not a quiter Rach your not!" She looked at him with tears in her eyes and clung o him crying.
