Hidden in Plain Sight

1*Jaime's POV*

Visiting Carly's mothers grave in Australia was a really emotional time for her. And it reminded me, not that I ever forgot, that I have someone whom I miss dearly I must visit. A few days after landing back in America, I took a morning off to go visit my beautiful Jess.

I drove to the nearest florist and bought just a single red rose. The biggest and most deep red colour they had. I had them attach just a little note onto the stem too, but I didn't let them write on it. I wrote my own little message when I got to the car. And silently and slowly I drove to the cemetery. I could feel a small tightness in my chest, as if I was getting a bit emotional. I held it together for the drive there.

'Jessica Rose Hatterson' was engraved on the headstone in beautiful cursive writing. The old flowers and bouquets were removed. Grass was grown over her grave, and it was nice to see. It was a bright green, just as bright as her personality. I took a seat, cross legged, in front of her.

For a moment, I kinda just sat there, putting together what I was going to say. But I couldn't. A tear broke from my eye. "Hey, Jess. I haven't spoken to you in a while. So I, uh, thought I should come for a visit' I began.

"Life here, for me, has been amazing, but heartbreaking. I still get sad when I see a picture of you, or here your name. I've been missing you a lot lately. And so has everyone else. Even Carly. You know, Carly really did like you and I know deep down you liked her too, but I wish I could just hear it from you. You would have both been great friends, and great friends with the guys girlfriends.

"Oh yeah, Mike is still dating Alysha, Tony and Erin are still together and Vic and Danielle are still going strong. And yeah, Carly and I so happy together. I'm sorry if it hurts you to hear that, but I hate lying to you when you obviously know the truth. But to be honest, Carly makes me happy, and I make her happy too. We're all happy together.

"Oh yeah, our album is coming together quite nicely, and we're going on tour soon. And it's going to be the biggest tour ever. We're planning to go everywhere, make this our biggest album. I am so excited, and what excites me more, is that Carly could come with us, as she is also a stage production person. But I don't to kinda, I feel it would be unfair to the guys who can't have their girlfriends with them. But I don't know, we'll see what happens in the future.

I take a breath. My chest becomes tight and my eyes shut hard, a tear or two falling from my eyes. "But Jess. I still miss you, I still love you. You were so beautiful and you still are. I will see you sometime soon though. But I wish I could know what had killed you and who if they did. You didn't deserve it and I will personally kill them with my bare hands right then and there for taking you away from me. But for now, I leave you this red rose, with a small note. I love you Jessica"

I plant the rose and blow the grave a kiss. Before walking away. "I still miss you every single day".
