Eva's POV

Todays been one of the hardest days of my life as I stand with my dad brother Aunt Uncle and the rest of my family and friends as we buried my mum who I looked up to as a long term friend not just as a mum. I don't know how I'm going to carry on without my best friend  right beside me all I know is that I've got to make her proud in everything I do starting from right now but I've been finding it hard to get past one thing why would someone steal a car then cause an accident and killed my mom from her injuries.

Diego's POV

When I woke up this morning I knew that I had to try and keep it together for the funeral of my mum. I'm only a teenager and I'm struggling as it is ever since she died. My dad is doing his best for me and my sister so far but I can tell that he's struggling with my mums death too. I was told by my mum that some jobs people die on the job as my Auntie Gabby is a Paramedic and my Uncle Matt is a Lieutenant as a Firefighter.

Gabby's POV

When I woke up this morning right beside my sexy husband as our daughter is crying. I knew that today is the day we bury Laura and now that the funeral  and burial are over and we're all walking back from the lake as I breastfeed Andrea.  I feel like that I want to get bladdered but I know that I can't as I'm providing milk to feed mine and Matt's daughter and secondly I know that I'll regret it when I wake up tomorrow morning from having a real bad headache and showing self up.

Everyone has arrived back at the house where food and drinks are prepared...
