I wake up to someone getting into the bed.

I pried my eyes open to see my brother. "What are you doing?" I mumbled.

"Coming to check on you." I nodded my head slowly and yawned. He kisses my forehead. I moved closer to him and smiled softly.

"You okay sis?"

"Yeah. You guys are helping me," I murmured.

"Let's get you out of the house today."

"And do what?" I asked, frowning.

"Anything you want."

"Don't leave it up to me," I told him, shaking my head.

"Let's go to the mall."

"Okay then. But not yet. I want to sleep for another hour or so," I murmured, biting my bottom lip.

"Want me to lay with you?"

"If you don't mind." I looked up at him with a small smile.

He smiles and lies down with me.

After half an hour, I realised I wasn't going to get to sleep, so I sat up and sighed. "I might as well get ready," I told him. "I'm not going to get to sleep again."

He nods. "Okay, I'll meet you downstairs and I'll make sure that there is coffee."

"Okay." I walked into my room and got some clothes out.

I take a quick shower and then change into my clothes. I grab a scarf since I know its supposed to get colder.

"Hey," my brother greeted, smiling at me. "You want something to eat."

"Yeah and I want that coffee too."

"One coffee, coming up," he said, getting my cup down from the cupboard then pouring out a drink for me.

"Thanks." I smile and make it the way I like it. He grinned and kissed the top of my head. I smile softly.

Once we were done, he looked at me. "Do you want to invite the other two?"

"Yeah."

"Okay." He called them downstairs. "You want to come with us to the mall?"

"Sure."

I grinned at my brothers then looked down at my hands, spotting the ring Justin gave me.

"You okay?" they all ask.

"Yeah." I rubbed my eyes. "Just fine."

Wes wraps his arm around me.

I moved closer to his side and breathed out slowly. I was fine, I wasn't going to break down in front of them.

He rubs my back. "Its okay Ellie."

"I miss him," I whispered, dropping my head into my hands. "God, I'm such a baby."

"You're not a baby,"

"I am! I'm crying and he's not even been home a day."

Robbie and Elliott comes over. "That doesn't mean you're a baby."

I sniffed and looked at the ring on my finger. "I want him here," I whispered.

"We know." They all hug me.

I rested my head against Elliott's shoulder and sighed.

"Its okay."

"Just a few months," he whispered.

When we got to the mall, I didn't know where to go. Everywhere made me think of when me and Justin visited.

"Come on Ellie,"
