"It's not over. She's still with us." Adam said rubbing my arm
"Yes it is over. She's gone." I said while the tears started coming back
"Look let's go listen to the lady and see what happened. Okay?" He said taking my hand in his
"Okay." I said taking his hand and putting my head down
We walked through the doors to see my mom crying into my dads shoulder and my dad trying to be strong but it was hard at the time.
"When you guys want to figure out the news, i'll let you know." the lady said rubbing my mom's arm
"Can we hear it now?" My mom asked stopping the lady
"Yes you may." She said with a little grin
"Adalynn was doing great through the surgeries until last night. Her lungs started to fill up with fluids. We rushed her to the ICU and started draining the fluids but by the time we got her in the other room she started grabbing her stomach and throat. The beeping started slowing but stopped right away. The doctors tried everything in their will to help her come back but the fluids just wouldn't allow anything in. Im sorry it had to end this way but she was a true fighter." The lady said dropping her head
"Was it all because of her cancer?" My mom asked
"Yes, she had three to five different cancers we found during her surgeries." The lady said patting my mom's arm
"Thank you." My mom said giving a small grin which was fake all the way
I walked out of the room and into my car not saying goodbye to anyone.
I drove all the way to the beach were Adalynn loved to play during the summer. So many thoughts were going through my mind.
"You okay?" My dad's voice came from a far distance
"Ya. Just its over now isn't it?" I asked looking at the sunset
"She may not be here physically but shes always going to be here." My dad said taking a rock and throwing it
"Dad shes never going to know what love is, shes never going to be able to go to prom, never going to have kids, shes never going to play sports, she'll never have her first kiss. I won't be able to see her grow up!" I said the tears coming back
"Maybe she wanted you to have those moments and not her. We didn't know this was going to happen and if we did we would've stopped it. But maybe that was why she came here."
"Ya I guess. What do you mean she saved all of those moments for me." I asked looking away again
"She wanted you to have those moments. Just think about it." My dad told me
"K i'll try." I said
"Well your mom wants to get home." My dad pointed out
"Ya." I said
"Get home at a descent time. Here comes Adam. Goodbye." My dad said kissing my forehead
"K sounds good." I said with a small grin
"Don't turn on Adam. Adalynn said his meant to be with you." My dad said walking away
He was right I can't turn on my friends or the people who are still here with me. How did Adalynn know he was 'meant to be with me'? Adam walked over and put his arm around me and pulled me close. I snuggled up close to his neck and just sat there thinking that I'm pretty lucky to have him.

It's been a long few weeks. We had Adalynn's funeral Saturday. It was all depressing but it's better for her to be were she won't be in any pain. We decided we didn't want everything black at her funeral, so we did it pink and purple, her favorite colors. It kind of lighted the mood but not much. Instead of people dressing in black we insisted on them dressing in pink and purple. You would be surprised how many people actually dressed in those colors.
Right now we are cleaning out her room and changing it into a memory thing. It just kind of shows where she's been through her life. We are getting a professional painter and having them paint her favorite place, which is Disneyland. One of the walls has the castle you walk through, then another wall has all the characters on it. Then the rest has her favorite rides on them. It sounds cheesy but it will actually be really cute. Than we are also doing disney furniture and than around the top of the ceiling we are having pictures of her, some with family and friends, pictures of her that we have took through the time.
Adam and I are clearing off her dressers and inside her closet. We didn't talk much but talking wasn't needed at the moment. We had disney music playing which just added to the moment also, it was really nice.
"She would love this." Adam said coming up behind me and grabbing my waist
"Yes she would've." I said looking back at him
"She loves it right now." Adam said grabbing her Mickey stuffed animal
"Ya I bet." I said stopping a tear from coming out
My parents haven't gotten over it but their still living their life the same. It hurts like a bugger walking down this wall to find an empty bedroom. My parents say I can't dread over it. They really don't know how close we were but I guess they have the right to think that.
It's crazy what happens in life. Don't ever stop loving someone family, friends, etc. you never know what is going to happen
-------*-------
It's been a month since Adalynn past away. Her room is finished and it is absolutely breathtaking. I've started doing more with my life instead of crying everyday cause no matter how much I cry she's not coming back.
"Let's talk." Adam said leading me toward the couch
"Okay, let's talk." I said giggling
He sat me right down by him and made me look at him
"Let's do something." Adam said looking back at me
"Okay. Like??" I asked a little nervous
He handed me a Minnie and Mickey stuffed animal.
"This is only the beginning." He said handing them to me and getting up and walking away
He didn't say anything else, he just handed me stuffed animals
I just got butterflies and realized how excited I am to see 'what else' he has planned
