I cried harder and harder not knowing if I would ever stop. I heard someone come through the front door and walk up the stairs calling my name. I did not even care at this point who it was I didn’t even have enough brain power to figure out who exactly was calling my name. I had left the shower certain open and water spilled onto the floor creating a puddle.

“Lacey” Brayden said coming though the door. I did not bother looking at him or saying anything; even if I wanted to my brain could not from the words. “Lacey come out of the shower” he said holding out a hand; but I did not take it. Before I knew what was happening Brayden was sitting behind me in the shower holding me against his chest. I felt his heartbeat, it was calm and slow. I cried into his chest until I became dizzy. “Breathe” he whispered into my ear. I did my best but nothing seemed to work the tears just kept coming. I heard someone else walk into the bathroom, Brie slipped off her shoes and joined Brayden and I in the shower. She sat in front of me and pulled me to her so our foreheads were touching.

“You listen to me” she said strongly even though she too was crying “He is going to be fine, I know it, he is going to wake up and you are going to be right there” she said grabbing either side of my face then kissed my forehead.

3 days passed and there was no change in Landon, but Tyson on the other hand was moodier then ever. When he had finally woken up we told him about Tessa and he went into hysterics crying out for Tessa. The next day he was angrier than ever and yelled at anyone who came into the room and today he is refusing to speak at all. Tessa’s funeral was to take place 2 days from now and I was praying to god that Landon would be awake by then. Everyday I went into his room and talked to him, I pleaded and begged him to wake up, and sometimes I would even sing to him. Although it had only been 3 days his bruises on his face were looking much better. I was sitting with him this morning when Tyson came in.

“Tyson? What are you doing? Did they release you?” I asked.

“Yeah, I’m free to go.” He continued to stare at Landon.

“Lacey I am so sorry I called” he said

“This isn’t your fault Tyson”

“If I hadn’t called he would still be with you and Tessa wouldn’t be…” he caught himself before he said the word dead. “She would still be here” he finished.

The 2 days passed and Landon was still not awake. The funeral was a blur really the one thing that wasn’t a blur was after the funeral when I found Tyson in a back room of the church. He was on the ground with his knees to his chest and his head in his arms. His shoulders heaved as he cried silently. I knelt down next to him and rested my head on his.

“Tyson I am so sorry” I closed my eyes not wanting the tears to start up again but they did anyway.

“I proposed” he mumbled through sobs.

“What?” I didn’t know if I heard him right.

“I proposed to her” he repeated

(I am sorry it took so long to get out i been really really busy! forgive me and i will try and get more out soon!)
