The girls hugged her as she got inside the van. She wasn't a hugger, but she sure needed a hug.

Danny felt awful. He was sad, angry. There was no words to describe the feeling. He didn't want to go into his bedroom. It reeked of Jennifer's anger and passion. Her rage and love. There was no way he could go in there. Then he remembered the piece of paper she gave him before she left.

"It's ok, Jennifer. It'll all work out" said Natalia
"Sam, when you ran away, how did you feel?" Jennifer asked
"I was relieved. My parents were way too overbearing. I'm not sure you'll feel the same" she said
Jennifer sighed. Everyone could feel her guilt floating around.
"He was your brother, but he treated you like shit!" Amanda said
"Look, when I left, the note I left with them, well I hope it made them feel like shit." Sam said
"I left a note" Jennifer said

Danny looked at the piece of paper.

Jennifer sang, as if she was singing to Danny.
And I heard you noticed every day while I've been here beside myself
How your bedroom smells just like me and how you found somebody else


The note said:
There's a letter that I wrote you just on the back of your top shelf
In case you think the things I've told you, you will hear from someone else


He knew, that wherever she was, she was singing those words. He went to the top shelf, and started rummaging around.

Jennifer sang the words she knew she wrote on the piece of paper.
There's a letter that I wrote you just on the back of your top shelf
In case you think the things I've told you, you will hear from someone else


Sam decided to join, but she knew what it was like to leave home. The feeling was always the same. It always felt strange, but it was always accompanied by sadness, guilt, relief, or joy.

It talks about the things I feel when it's just us inside the dark
About the things I like to think while you lay so close to my heart


Jennifer smiled and sang in response
And I cant seem to find the words I mean so I try to hold my tongue
While I lay wide awake and restless you should read it says


Danny read the note, almost expecting an apology on the piece of paper. What he saw shocked him a bit.
Go to hell if you're reading this and I'm not here
Take your someone else and let me make this crystal clear
That take I don't need your help and I'm okay by myself
You can go to hell


Jennifer and Sam sang together, Jennifer, to Danny, and Sam to her parents.
Go to hell if you're reading this and I'm not here
Take your someone else and let me make this crystal clear
That take I don't need your help and I'm okay by myself
You can go to hell

Jennifer smiled, knowing that that was what Danny was reading at that moment. She no longer felt guilty. She felt...free.

Danny was shocked. Jennifer had never told him off after their mother died, despite all of the shit he told her.

Amanda and Natalia joined in.
And they say you tell him every day how you can feel the way I feel
How we're connected by the heart and you're convinced it's something real
Well if thats true I hope you're smiling like I am from ear to ear


Danny read the note, as it kept going.
And they say you tell him every day how you can feel the way I feel
How we're connected by the heart and you're convinced it's something real
Well if thats true I hope you're smiling like I am from ear to ear


Ryan joined in, happy that Jennifer was feeling better, and she was telling her brother off, though not face to face.
Jennifer was very happy she had left at this point. She felt like screaming to the entire world that she finally left.

And just in case you think I'm lying I've left a page to make it clear
That now I open up and scream to the whole world that I finally left


Danny read the words shocked. She was happy she left? This was something she had been waiting to do?

Ella joined in too, happy that she had left her pain back at that place she called "home"

So if you hear me out of breath
I'm saying
Go to hell if you're reading this and I'm not here
Take your someone else and let me make this crystal clear
That, that I don't need your help and I'm okay by myself you can go to hell
And I feel it's time that I have said there are some things that I regret like never checking out the odds against this bet
Cause I would bet my favorite things I ever owned that you would leave and I'd be miserable like hell
But I won't
Go to hell if you're reading this and I'm not here
Take take your somebody else and let me make this crystal clear
That that I don't need your help and I'm okay by myself
You can go to hell


Everyone in the van was rocking out, almost screaming the lyrics. Bob had to roll up the windows. Jennifer was one of the loudest. She had the biggest grin in the world plastered on her face, for everyone to see. She knew that Danny was reading the lyrics they were shouting, and she hoped that it gave him hell.

Danny was on the verge of tears. He was miserable. He took his little sister for granted, and now, she was gone, for lord knows how long. The lyrics made him feel worse. She had really thought at one point that she would leave, and even picked out a specific song!

Yea you can yeah you can you can
Go to hell if you're reading this and I'm not here
Take your somebody else and let me make this crystal clear
That that I don't need your help and I'm okay by myself
You can go to hell
Oh you can go to hell
You make sure you take someone else
Ooh that you know you can you can go to hell


They finished singing, and everyone was laughing. They were all happy. They laughed and cheered when Jennifer screamed 3 words that everyone in that van loved to hear:
"I FINALLY LEFT!" she screamed
They were all happy, but their smiles turned to frowns when they heard a police officer, telling them from a megaphone to pull over.

Uh oh! Oh no! Cliffhanger >:)
Here's the song for this chapter. It's called "Go To Hell" by Go Radio. Here's the link, you should listen to it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1p8uuaCE3MI
Also, the reason some lyrics were repeated twice in this chapter was because Danny was reading them off of a piece of paper, the note Jennifer left, just to clear that up!
