"Fran lift her legs higher." Leo grunted through his teeth.

"I'm fucking trying. I'm slipping on these rocks." I huffed back.

My mom's hand braced around Alice's side, helping us push her the rest of the way over the ledge. Her body now rested atop the plummeting drop down in the canyon. I looked to my mother as she couldn't take her eyes off of Alice's tepid corpse.

"I don't get why we can't just say we found her and she overdosed. It happens to people all the time." I muttered looking towards my mother.

I didn't want to drop Alice's body in this canyon to never be found. I wanted her to rest, i wanted her to be home.

My mother and brother shared a quick glance. "It has to be this way Franny, they'd never believe me." Leo explains, running his fingers through his soft brown hair.

"I just don't feel right about this, i don't want her family to suffer anymore than they already will." I began to feel the tears as they bordered my lower lids.

How were my mother and Leo so unaffected by the death of Alice. We were all so close to her, she was like my sister. My mother was like a second mom to her. And Leo? They were partners in life, how could he be so callous right now?

"Please Fran, you don't want me to go to prison for the rest of my life do you?" Leonardo spoke to me gently as he pleaded.

"No." I muttered.

"Okay then. Help me." He demanded as his hands braced around Alice's shoulders.

I reluctantly placed my hands on the back of her legs. I then closed my eyes and pushed the corpse of one of my closest and dearest friends down into the canyon.
