*All Nate's POV*

Its been a year since they lowered Aliza into the ground. It still hurts to remember that day. But I still visit her grave everyday. Rain or shine.

I tell her everything that happens. And I only talk here. I've pretty much gone mute. I'm slowly fading away. But I don't tell her that.

I wonder if she likes where she is. If she's happy. I hope she is. I don't want her to be miserable. I sit down on the ground and begin to play my dad's guitar and sing an acoustic version of Something Grimm by Blood On The Dance Floor.

Once upon a never, you were the reason I lived
Always looking to you to make me feel like shit
Everyone knows fairytales don't exist
Hoping you could prove that love actually did

You find yourself, from deep within
You cry for help, it's something grimm
You fall apart, you meet your end
Life is short, it's something grimm

La, la la, la
My heart has been impaled
La, la, la, la
Life is no fairytale

Once upon a time, you were the reason that I lived
Once upon a time, you put the hope in hopeless
I refuse to live a life that's filled with regret
Don't want to grow old and miserable like you

You find yourself, from deep within
You cry for help, it's something grimm
You fall apart, you meet your end
Life is short, it's something grimm

La, la, la, la
My heart has been impaled
La, la, la, la
Life is no fairytale

Shadows fall from everywhere
Shallow minds behind blank stares
Empty hearts and sorrow sing
There's no happy ending
Shadows fall from everywhere
Shallow minds behind blank stares
Empty hearts and sorrow sing
There's no happy ending

You find yourself, from deep within
You cry for help, it's something grimm
You fall apart, you meet your end
Life is short, it's something grimm

Life is no fairytale, it's something grimm, it never ends
As the ship sets a sail, it's something grimm, it never ends
As the weight tips down the scale, it's something grimm, it never ends
Our new lives will begin, it's something grimm, it never ends

I finished almost in tears. It's hard to play some songs now. I always think of her. Thinking of how much she loved music, and her face when I played Can't Stand It by Never Shout Never for her. I wiped away a stray tear and got up. "I love you, Aliza." I walked back to my car and put the guitar in the back and drove home.

Things hopefully will get better but at the moment and past year it hasn't. I haven't seen Sasha since what happened and my mom drowns herself in work. barley anyone talks. I don't even talk to anyone other than Aliza, well her grave anyway.

I should've known fairytales don't exist. This isn't a movie where everything will be happy at the end. Nothing will ever be the same and I'm just going to except it. I will always love her. Forever.
