"Cold. Too cold." Carter mumbled.
     "It's ok, i'll get you some hot chocolate." Said Alex. "Try to stay warm.  Rikki, Stay with Carter."
      Rikki held Carter's hand. I saw a tear run down her cheek.
      "I am so sorry." Said Rikki.  I knew Carter was trying to speak, but no words came out. Kailee, Bailee and I  exchanged looks.
       "Hot chocolate's here!"  Alex sang out in her cheerful opera voice. She handed out all the cups to everyone.   I took a sip.
         "Ow!!!!  Too hot!" I screamed.
         "Oh! That's right!!" Said Alex. "I'll get an ice pack."
          Great. now I have a burn on my lip from hot cocoa. It must've felt so hot from when I fell in the freezing creek. It was so hot, compared to the cold. Alex came rushing in with an ice pack. She pressed it on my lip.
         "Ahhhhhhhh! too cold!!!" I yelled.
         "Oh dear. I am so sorry..... take another sip of hot cocoa."
        "Ouch!!!!!" I yelped. "Too hot!"
        "Oh gosh. How about we just let your lip be." Suggested Alex.  I nodded.
          So here I am, in a place with a frozen sister on grass, a crying sister next to that frozen sister, two sisters that are asleep, a sister serving hot cocoa, and a bruised lip.
     
      So, now you know that the title of  this post is just a joke. Carter is not dead. TTYL!
