Percy's POV
I actually don't know why I nodded my head yes to look at my baby brother. I know that sounds a bit harsh but I didn't want the last image of my brother puffed and powdered. I didn't want to look at him and know that his could never open because they were sewn shut, I didn't want to see how still he was. Hunter never sat still for more than two minutes. I didn't want to look at him and actually notice that his chest did not rise or fall. It was terrible and I knew I should have said no to Jason would have understood. We stood up and waited behind Gabe's grandmother and father. The funeral was quite small, the only people there were both the grandparents, hunters teacher's, the principal, a few of Hunter's friends parents and Jason. I was actually happy not that many people were there. I looked into the casket and couldn't stop the wave of nausea that overcame me. I held in my bile and ran a hand over Hunter's face.
"I'm sorry Hunter this is all my fault." I whispered as my breathing started to get erratic.
"Shh Percy it's ok." I looked back at Jason and noticed he had tears running down his face.
"How do you know its ok?" I squeezed his hand and looked at him desperately. I wish that I knew everything would be ok.
"I just know, I'm not expecting you to get over it, but I want you to know that you won't be alone. I love you and I will make sure you don't go through this alone, I understand it will be hard but nothing is ever easy. I couldn't believe my ears, Jason was willing to stay and help me along they way. I felt so loved. I nodded as my vision started to blur and gripped Jason's hand as we walked away and took our seats again. The ceremony was spectacular everything up to flowers were either green and blue or decorated green and blue. Even Hunter's casket was a dark blue, so dark it looked almost black. Its such a shame something so beautiful could be so painful. After we read the obituary they asked people who wanted to say a few words.
First my mom's parents went up and spoke, then followed Gabe's. The teacher's, and principals and finally it was Jason and I. I squeezed Jason hand as he went up.
Ok this was not supposed to end here but every time I save a story and try to come back later to keep going it acts up and I can't type anymore. So luv peace and chicken grease
