jack set the last lantern down in the clearing in front of the woods, giving a soft sigh. Ryan held terrys lantern close, eyes closed as he held it. "i'll miss you so much.." he spoke softly, before pulling back and making sure the polaroid he picked out was sticking okay against it. it was a picture of sherman and terry, sherman kissing terrys cheek as terry was laughing, scrunching his nose. he set the lantern down again, looking towards adam, jack, and jimmy. "is everything okay guys?" he asked softly.

Jimmy looked at Ryan and nodded, "Yeah." He said softly as he looked at all the lanterns. He just hoped Sherman will at least be a little healed after the funeral..he hasn't eaten..since Casey made him the chicken nuggets..that was almost two days ago now.

Adam nodded with Jimmy. He took a breath, he hoped Sherman will be okay with the funeral..

Sherman was in his room with Casey, he was getting ready for the funeral. He had Terry's ring necklace around his neck, he hasn't taken it off in two days..ever since he got it. He took a shuddering breath in and out, he doesn't know if he is ready but..he has too. Who knows if it will be the last time he'll be seeing everyone together..

casey stood with a small bouquet of flowers, in a black outfit paired with a black and white cardigan, chewing his lip gently. "..you gonna be okay sherm?" he asked softly, rubbing under his glasses as he waited for sherman. he didn't want to wear his contacts today, he's been crying too much.

ryan and jack stood back waiting for the others, jack kicking at leaves on the ground gently. "..i.. have a bad feeling.. shermans gonna do something.. bad.." jack mumbled, ryans brows furrowing and looking at the other two.

Adam looked at Jack from his place with Jimmy, "What..? Why do say that?" He also had a bad..feeling but he just put it off.

Jimmy nodded, "I..have a bad feeling as well..he's been more.. empty than before..he hasn't eaten in two days.." He frowned.

Sherman shrugged, "...I..I don't know.." He said as he clutched the necklace tightly.

"you know how sherman got when terry got hurt so bad he could barely move.. having him gone.. i just.... it's... so much worse.." jack muttered softly, brushing his curls back out of his face. "...i'll.. keep an eye on him." he mumbled, staring down at the grass beneath them.

"..c'mon.. it'll be okay..." casey spoke softly, brows furrowed as he gazed at the other.

Sherman looked at Casey then nodded, "..Okay.." He softly said. Soon..he thought, "Soon.." He whispered to himself.

Adam nodded, "Okay.." He was worried..very worried now. He got to his radio and flipped it to the private station, "Casey.. everything's ready."

"alright, we're on our way." casey replied, brows furrowing towards sherman. "lets go sherm." he nodded to the door, opening it and holding it open for the other to exit. they held the bouquet close, taking a deep breath.

Sherman nodded, he exited his room. He hugged himself as he walked down the hall. He tried to calm himself before he went outside.

Casey walked close with him, making sure he was okay as they went into the elevator, the cool breeze stinging their face as they arrived to the surface.

Jimmy saw Casey and Sherman arrived, he waved them over to the clearing.

Sherman walked out of the elevator and toward the clearing. He saw the lanterns, he found Terry's. He already wanted to cry, he picked it up and looked at the polaroid. "I'll see you soon, hun.." He mumbled under his breath.
