Chapter 8

Vannessa and JD sat side by side in the red tinted church. Light was pouring in through the stained glass, giving the priest ripper a ghostly glow. His round face was impassive for the first few words, but he started to sound insane as he went on to rant about society.

"I blame, not heather. But rather a society that tells it's youth that the answers can be found in MTV video games..."

Vannessa and JD chokes on their laughter. Everyone else was choking into hankercheifs looking at Heather's angelic body in the open casket. They had fixed up her body so we'll that she didn't look like she has ever smashed through a table.

"We must pray... That other teenagers of Sherwood ohio know the name if the righteos dude... Who can solve their problems."

His face became insane and his eyes nearly popped out of his head.

"His names Jesus Christ!"

He looked around at everyone.

"AND HES IN THE BOOk" he held up his Bible copy and slammed it down on his desk.

Like one, everyone gave a teary

"Amen."

One by one, each student got up to say their prayers, or, think them really. Only Heather McNamara would really feel sorry for heather Chandler.

When it was heather Duke's turn, vannessa could see the words play out on her face.

"I prayed for the death of heather Chandler many times."

She looked solem. " And I felt bad every time I did it," she chuckled slightly. "Know I know you understood everything!"

She looked up to the sky.

"Praise Jesus hallelujah"

Vannessa went outside with JD, skipping her part to pray. She didn't believe in God, and didn't exactly care.

Vannessa and JD kissed before He zoomed away on his motorcycle.

Vannessa then light heartidly went back into the church to look for heather McNamara.

She found her sneakily splashing holy water on her hair and fixing it.

She looked up as vannessa walked up to her.

"Oh Veronica." She smiled.

Both heather and Vannessa walked outside together.

"You know Rams been such a dear to me?" Vannessa rolled her eyes. The only reason ram Sweeny would be acting nice to her would be because he wanted some sex.

"So what are you doing tonight?"

Vannessa sighed.

"I don't know.. watching TV... Mourning."

Heather nodded her head.

"Well.. ram asked me out tonight, but he wants a double date with Kurt."

"Well.. I don't know heather, I something going with JD-"

Heather stopped walking and grabbed vannessa's arm.

"C'mon Veronica, put Billy the kid on hold tonight? I'm your best friend!"

Veronica stared into Heather's blue eyes.

"Fine. As long as they don't take us to a cow pasture to top cows."

Vannessa knew that they were, of course, but the only reason she was going was to keep ram from raping heather.

She never understood why Veronica never helped heather as she was being assulted in the backround....

After bringing a spare set of clothes, (she was gonna get muddy)

She went with the jocks and Heather to a cow pasture.

"Dude- do you think it's asleep-?"

Ram giggled drunkenly.

"Yeah dude punch it in!"

Ram and Kurt attempted a fist bump but missed in their drunken state and punch each other in the stomach.

Then they creeped up on the poor cow.

"1...2...3!"

And they pushed the poor cow into the mud. It was still alive, but it would remain. In the mud untill someone found it.

After a bit, ram and Kurt started to get all ha day as they got drunker. Ram started to kiss heather and Kurt got all up in vannessa's business.

"You are really pretty."

Vannessa rolled her eyes.

"Eat a dick loser."

"Kurt leaned against the fence.

"You know.. when I get that Feeling.. I need sexual relief." Vannessa scoffed

"Yeah right loser."

She heard ram and Heather fall to the ground in a mush of struggle and yelps

Vannessa ran to heather and tried to pry ram off. But she wasn't strong enough. She heard Kurt collapase.

"Get off of her dick wad!

She put her arms around his neck making him get off heather. She let go and helped heather up.

Together the climbed over the fence and ran up the hill to the parking lot.

Heather had driven her car there so she was free to leave.

"Thanks Ronnie."

She said climbing into the baby yellow colored car.

"Sure."

"What about you-?"

Vannessa laughed.

"JD 'll get me."

Heather smiled.

"Ok, bye Veronica."

"Bye heather."

Heather pulled out and vannessa went back to check on the jocks.

They were both passed out in mud.

"What the fuck is this-!?"

JD sat in his motorcycle smoking a cigarette.

"It was a favor to heather. Double date."

JD sighed.

"Another fucking heather."

He looked up at the sky.

"Sorry. I'm uh. Feeling a little superior tonight.... Seven schools in seven states and the only thing different is my locker combination."

He holds out his hand and vannessa takes it and kisses him. They both collapse into the grass as one. Under the light of the moon.
