Whoa this sounds pretty cool. The character sounds very interesting. Put of curiosity , does he ever come to find anything about the girl he sacrificed himself for that likes. Do they ever change how they feel about each other?

He meets the girl he died for. She's choked into a coma right before the story starts and ends up so close to death, her soul can move around with the rest of them. She's still a miserable bitch though. In addition to having her reputation dragged through the mud (the press found out a boy died for her and made her out to be a teenage seductress and she read the online comments), she's also the victim of sexual abuse by her math teacher (and the siren is a creepy fucker too), slut shaming, and her parents are divorced and her mom drinks too much.

She still holds her head high and sneers at anyone she considers a social inferior. Which is everybody. Including Jeremy.

But the other Associate of Death, the one who loves him, doesn't take her shit. At all. In fact, she tells her to STFU, that being miserable doesn't justify making everyone else miserable. Tells her that nobody likes her, that she's nothing. That without them there, she likely wouldn't make it through the day before getting ripped apart by a ghost. (ghosts are souls who aren't shuffled off to the next world in a timely manner. They go insane and the worst parts of their personalities physically manifest.)

Being forced to realize that she wouldn't survive without other people, when she's survived everything else, has her go into meltdown mode. She thinks a good person is a strong one. One who can take care of herself. Someone who doesn't need anyone. And up until that point she would have considered herself a good person.

Now she has to admit that she's not a good person. That she's a bully. But she and the other girl meet in the place where she was attacked, and the other girl apologizes (even though she doesn't have to. She just realized she didn't pull a punch she should have and she's not cruel). Khloe accepts it, and the other girl realizes that she (Khloe) is actually terrified of almost everything, which is something nobody noticed.

It doesn't magically solve everything, but she comes to terms with how she treated Jeremy, stands up to the creepy siren, remembers who attacked her, and, if she's not winning any nice awards, at least stops actively making everyone else miserable. For his part, Jeremy manages to forgive her, which is something she needs.

Aww.

That sounds awesome.

I like stories about bullies growing up and being redeemed, and trying to move forward and do better. I get tired of the 'Evil irredeemable Bully" narrative. Characters like that are never going to achieve anything other than fulfill the writer's desire for revenge IMO. However a redeemable bully character might actually make a real person out there realize they're a bully and maybe motivate them to do better/work on changing their behavior.

Thank you! ^.^

I want to leave her in a place where there's at least the hope of a better future. She'll have to work at it, and stuff won't get better overnight, but she has a shot at a happy life when she gets out of the coma.

She was inspired by a real person. I went to my high school reunion and there was this girl who was a miserable little shit in middle school and high school. And ten years later she was still a miserable little shit. She's 28 and still acting like she's 12, and there's signs that she's sick in the head. I felt sorry for her and wondered what has to happen to a person that they are mentally stuck in middle school. Hopefully nothing as bad as what I'm writing.
