We keep this love in a photograph
We made these memories for ourselves
Where our eyes are never closing
Hearts are never broken
And time's forever frozen, still

March 22nd 2008
Malibu, California

The second I step off the plane, Pepper rushes over to me and wraps me up in a big hug. Tears that have been threatening to fall for the past half an hour, whilst I was testifying to some military personnel, tumble down my cheeks the second I feel her touch. My body shakes as I weep and she holds me tight, like if she let go she'd lose me too.

"Aria, sweetie, thank god you're okay.", she pants out, holding my head to her chest.

"I...", though the thoughts racing around my head are so loud, I can't seem to get any words out, "He can't be... He should be coming home with me! He should be here! He said he'd never leave! He promised! He... He...", heavy sobs wrack my chest, "He's gone.", I whisper, "I should have done something... I should have-", I don't know what to say, so I just sob into her chest.

She guides me to the car and we sit in the back seat; as the car starts, I rest my head on her shoulder and close my eyes, the bliss of nothingness calming me. Pepper rubs my arm and tsks quietly to me.

Memories of me and Dad flash through my head and the tears keep falling to the ground. I don't think they'll ever stop.

 I don't think they'll ever stop
