Chapter 19: It's the End and The Start of a New Beginning


Marissa POV

I snapped my fingers and saw no one.

"Kendall's supposed to be here!" I accidentally screamed in 2J. Luckily, there was no one who could hear me, even Kendall.

Furious, I snapped my fingers again and I appeared in front of a sign with red letters on it, Rocque Records.

"What is he doing here? Okay, after I spent twenty minutes of thinking of a message to tell them that it was their day off without suspecting me, he still went." I said to myself again.

I walked into Rocque Records and saw their poster. My insides squirmed. I was the one that broke their band and I must put it back before . . .

"Kendall may . . . maybe it's just a sick story that the Paparazzi made. You know the Paparazzi. Kendall, please." I saw the assistant of Gustavo Rocque talking to Kendall and calming him down. Kendall, on the other hand is on the floor, tears streaming down his eyes and pain evident in his face.

"No! I know, I know," I can hear him repeatedly say with every comforting word the assistant was throwing at him.

"What . . . what do you know, Kendall? It's been an hour and you still haven't told me what you know." She kneeled in front of Kendall and looked straight into his eyes. "Kendall, what is it?"

"I . . . I know who killed them. They are dead. I just know it." And with that, he stood up and started shouting. "Where are you, Marissa? Show yourself!"

"Kendall!"

"You heartless woman, you know what, I know why you kill people. Yeah. You kill people 'cause you don't have anyone who loves you so you will never feel pain. I know all I said is complete nonsense but I know you know what I mean. And you will never win because I know what to do now."

He then started walking out of the building and on to the streets. He positioned himself on one lane where a truck was speeding toward him.

"Kendall, No!"


Logan POV

"So, what are we going to do now, Logan?"

I may be the genius but now my mind was metaphorically floating in the clouds. So, I ended up stammering.

"We . . . we . . ."

"We jump." James firmly said, looking at me sternly.

"What? What if you get hurt . . . or what if . . . James, there are many flaws in that plan. I don't think it's a safe plan."

"Who said that you have to follow my plan, Logan? Go ahead. Follow your instincts. Think of your own plan. In the meantime, I'm going down there and I don't care if I get hurt. Kendall did everything to protect our lives. He went to great extremes just to destroy Marissa." He paused and touched his neck, then shook his head. "And now that Marissa is going to him and we don't know if she's going to kill Kendall or not but if she does, I want to be there to kill her before she does."

I've never seen James like this. He was always the one who cared about himself before others.

"So, Logan, are you coming with me and Carlos or not?"

I looked up and saw them positioned on the edge of the cloud.

"But Marissa said . . ." I started to oppose but they just waved me away.

"I don't care what she said! Now, I'm going to ask you one last time, are you coming with us or not?"

"No."

"Then . . ." Carlos said detaching himself from James. "I'm not going either. James, I'm scared. What if Logan's right." He lowered his head. "I don't want to get hurt again. It's too painful."


Kendall POV

I positioned myself in front of a speeding truck. I'm crazy. But what else will I have to do. Without my friends, my life's worthless.

"Kendall, No!"

I closed my eyes and waited for the big mass of metal hit my body. But it didn't. I opened my eyes and saw Marissa on the street bleeding.

Time seemed to have stopped and as I looked at Marissa she looked much younger. Her 40 year old face turned into a 16 year old girl's face. She opened her eyes and for once smiled a joyful smile.

"Hey." She sighed softly.

"What did you do?" I looked closer and saw that she wasn't bleeding blood but stardust. "Oh my, you're bleeding. Let me . . ." I took out a handkerchief ready to at least stop the flow until I call 911 but she held my hand and put it down.

I never thought I would be crying at a moment like this. I mean, she killed my friends to destroy my life but right now she went in front of a truck to save my life.

"You know you could've saved my life by making my friends appear right beside me." I said tears passing by my cheeks.

"I'm sorry." Was all she managed to say to me.

"It's . . . it's . . ." I didn't know of it was all right. Everything now just seems so confusing.

"I understand. Everything is too confusing right now. But you will understand, in time."

"And what if I don't? Why did you step in front of me and get hit by the truck?"

"Hold my hand."

"Why?"

"Just. . .please." I looked in her pleading eyes and grabbed her two hands and wrapped them in mine. "Close your eyes and make a wish. Your last wish."

"What . . . what will happen to you?"

"One . . ."

"But, I don't know what to wish yet."

"Look into your heart Kendall. What do you really wish for?"

"I . . . I . . ."

"Two"

"But . . ."

She put her hands on her heart bringing my hands too. She looked at me with her sad eyes.

"Thank you Kendall. Thank you for teaching me to value love and friendship. I hope you for what I have done. Goodbye."

And with that I closed my eyes and made my wish.

"But Gustavo, don't you care if the boys are tired?"

I opened my eyes and looked around. What happened? And where am I?

"I don't care if they get tired. I don't care if their muscles ache. And more importantly, I don't care if their bones get broken, that is what hospitals are for! It has to be perfect. You," he dramatically pointed to us, "have to be perfect."

Now, I get it. I am in the place where everything started. The fight, the words and my words that broke their hearts. The reason why I made that wish in the first place and I'm given a second chance to start over and I'm not planning to ruin it.

"Gustavo, come on give us a break. We know we are not perfect. Well, James is because he's such an amazing singer and dancer. He's done better than the three of us have; he deserves at least to be praised for his work." I glanced at James who had a mile wide of a smile.

"And look at Logan, I mean when he arrived you kept criticizing him about how he dances and I haven't heard from you anything about how he dances now. And don't tell me about his voice, there's nothing more to talk about." I looked at Logan and gave him a smile which caused him to turn deep red.

"And Carlos, need I say more?" I looked at him and he gave me a small smile in return.

"Look guys, I'm sorry. I'm just really having a bad day today. Could you guys forgive me?"

They formed a small group huddle and talked. When they were done, they all just rushed to me and gave me a hug.

"Of course we will."

"Thanks guys."

"O-kay. I think that's enough sweetness for me today. You guys can go."

We took our bags and went out of Roque Records and as we crossed the street we looked up in the sky and a shooting star passed by.

"Hey, guys look a shooting star!" Carlos exclaimed just like when we were little. "Let's make a wish.'

I looked at them as they tightly shut their eyes, wishing so hard upon the star. I, I just merely looked at it and smiled. I didn't need to wish on a star 'cause everything that I wished for, already came true.
