Abigail
Back at the house I couldn't sleep the bed was empty the kids were asleep scott still wasn't home, I couldn't leave tomorrow morning not knowing what was happening so Iv decided to stay for now  and see how it goes, after all the boys were happy staying here they met friends and went to school scott hired the best qualified  teachers I sometimes pop into the nursery to help out which I enjoy.

laying here thinking about everything in darkness, when the door opens  letting in some light  and in comes an exhausted looking scott his face barely visible but enough so that I could see he'd been crying.

I sat up and turned the bedside  light  on, scott was sat with his legs off the bed and his head in his hands  " scott what's happened? You stink of  alcohol"

He turned and patted the side of the bed motioning me to sit next to him. I got up sat beside him and put my head in the crook of his neck.

" my mothers dead" is all he said.

My body ran cold, goosebumps all up my arm, she's dead? Omg. I could tell from his voice he was devastated hurt and sad " I'm so sorry" I whispered Megan told me about the attack I cuddled into him further. His grip tightened around me. He smiled " I love you my queen, let's sleep tomorrow's another day"

We both lay in bed cuddled into each other after a few minutes his breathing had steadied and I knew he was asleep.

I couldn't sleep all I could think about was Tanya his poor mum how will he cope with such a loss. The birds were chirping when I finally fell asleep.

Scott
Three days had past since my mom was murdered, today was the day I was going with dad michael and jake to arrange the funeral, they was in England visiting our businesses when it happened they flew back as soon as they found out. Amy was finally out of her coma and back to her usual self talking too much which for once I was relived but wow that woman can talk.

" father, bet Midler wind beneath my wings was her favourite song, we should play that on entry" father nodded " yes son it was, and on exiting I want love lift us up where belong joe cocker" the funeral director was nodding and writing down all our requests. Mother will arrive in a horse and carriage white horses, that's what she would want beautiful white horses with pink and white flowers on their manes. My mothers funeral cost $45000 but she was worth it our foundation to the family now gone forever.

Once the funeral was booked I headed home to be with Abigail, I needed one of her cuddles, today wasn't a good day it just reminded me that my mom
Was gone and wasn't coming back.
