Barry was on a plane to New York. To his past.
When Ashley died, he ran away. He couldn't handle going to school everyday without her. People whispered. Some people thought he was the one that shot her. It killed him that people could think that. He loved her. She was his everything. He longed for her.
He looked in his wallet at a picture of her. Two tears streamed down his cheek. The woman next to him asked if he was okay. He shook his head.
When he finally arrived in New York, he had to get a taxi. He actually lived in a small town about three hours from the city. As he sat in the taxi he saw a familiar movie theater. It was where Barry and Ashley shared their first date. He saw the busstop in front of it. That was where they had their first kiss.
When Ashley was alive, everything seemed so simple. Make it through school, get promoted to manager at the restaurant he worked at, maybe go to college and marry Ash. Now he wasn't even sure if he was going to finish school, he had no job and Ashley was dead.
He paid the driver and got out of the taxi. He was home.

Allie has lived in NYC forever. She went to school there, and had friends there. On friend she remembers is Ashley, her best friend. She always hund out with Ashley. One day Ashley was brutally murdered. When she found out she cried for weeks. Everyone was getting blamed for it, her boyfriend Barry, her enemy, even her mom. One day Allie was blamed for it. She was angry. It went on and on and on. One day Allie was so mad, she punched someone. She decided to leave the town. She's moving to a new small little town far away from here. She had to visit Ashley's grave one more time.
"Why'd you leave Ashley, why?" Allie screamed at the grave crying. She put flowers on the grave.

Barry went to the cemetary. He saw Ashley's grave, more decorated than any other grave there. Everyone love her. But none more than him.
Barry saw Allie, Ashley's friend. He took a deep breath and walked over to the grave, his guitar on his back. He brought his guitar everywhere.
It was hard for him to see old friends.
"Hi Allie," he said weakly.

Allie still crying turned around and saw Ashley's boyfriend Barry. "Barry!" Allie screamed, ran over, and hugged him. "You still think about Ashley! You know, people at school think one of us murdered her." Allie told him still crying.

"Of course I still think about her. I love her. And I know. That's why I left," he said.
He started crying again with his arms around Allie. She was her last piece of Ashley.
"I just miss her so much..." he managed to get out through the tears.

"I miss her so much too. I visit her every day, but now I'm moving because of the same reason you moved. I'm moving to a pretty fancy town, David Starfold lives there." Allie told him.
Allie let go of Barry and touched the ground. The ground where Ashley's body lays. She refuses to believe she's gone, but she knows it's true.

"That's where I live," he said.
Barry got a text.
"I wanted u 2 have something. Come by l8r."
it was from Ashley's mom.
Barry was bawling. He left a bouquet of flowers on the grave.
"I can't live without her anymore," he said.

"Really, well it's a small world," Allie said. No laugh from Allie, just tears.
"I miss her so much too." Allie visits her grave everyday and cries everyday. They were inseperable. But now, they're seperated.
"So, I guess you moved on and found a new girlfriend." Allie told him. Allie doesn't have a new best friend. No one can replace Ashley in her heart.

"No... I tried, but no once can ever replace Ash," he said.
"I can never move on. If I was 3 seconds earlier that day, I could've saved her..." he said.
He wanted more than anything to hold Ashley in his arms just one more time.
It started raining.

"I haven't hung out with anyone since then," Allie told him.
"There was nothing you can do! You weren't three second's earlier. You can't blame yourseslf." said Allie.
"Shoot I hate the rain, it happens a lot while I'm here. I come every day." Allie said.

"Ashley isn't here. And she is never coming back," he said.
He walked out of the graveyard and ran down the sidewalk. He ran past the Cohen's house. The rain kept pouring down. He reached the river, and jumped into the rushing water. He was pushed into a rock. He saw a bright light and Ashley.
Her beautiful face talked to him.
["Barry why are you doing this?"]
"Because a life without you isn't worth living,"
["Don't give up Barry. Be strong for me,"]
"I wasn't strong enough to save you..."
["It was fate, and there was nothing anyone could do,"]
"I will never forgive myself for it,"
["Well I forgive you,"]
"I love you..."
["I love you too..."]
He held her in his arms, but she faded into nothing.
He heart a faint whispering.
"We will be together again,"
He woke up on the side of the river from where he jumped. How was that possible?
He was touched by God, and his guardian angel.

Allie found Barry laying at the side of the river. She don't know why she went there. She just felt she had to for some odd reason.
"Barry!" she screamed. She ran over to Barry and picked him up.
"What are you doing there?" Allie asked him.

"I... saw her..." he said.
"I saw Ashley..." he said, and started crying.
"And she pulled me out of the river,"
He realized how insane he sounded, but he knew what happened. He remembered jumping into the river, then he saw her and talked to her and he woke up at the place where he jumped,

"Okay..." She didn't believe him. "What were you doing in the river in the first place?"

"I... jumped in," he said.
"I hit a rock, and then I saw a bright light, then Ashley was with me and then I woke up where I jumped," he said.
