I miss Harry. I miss his laugh, his smile, his jokes and his hair. I remember a month ago I stood in my room crying because my life turned into a stinking nightmare. I thought it will never get better then I met Harry. He turned my frown upside down. He showed me what it's like to smile, to laugh and to enjoy every second of my life. He gave me a reason to live. I recalled every memory, every second I enjoyed and every moment my heart soared.

I ignored the crowd screaming to let me go. Let me live. I ignored the tears of my family, the ones who actually love me. I looked up at the sunny sky with the fluffy clouds and flying birds and imagined I was back with Harry lying on the grass a week before I was taken back to this nightmare. I imagined us spotting the shapes of the clouds.

"Tracy, look! Its candy floss" Harry joked.

I burst out laughing.

"You're terrible at this game" I stated.

"Nope. I just wanted to hear your beautiful laugh" he said lying on his side looking down on me.

I turned on my side to face him.

"You're an irritating jerk" I said using the words I wrote about Harry the first time.

"But this irritating jerk loves you to the moon and back" he said.

"Only that much?" I pouted.

"You know I was just joking. My love cannot be measured by kilometres or light years. The only one who will know how much is the beautiful, courageous love of my life who stole my heart from the first time we met. Don't ever forget that" he said and kissed me.

"I won't. I love you Harry. Until death do us part" I told him.

I loved that day. It was the day when I fell in love with Harry all over again. That memory will stay in my heart.

"Until death do us part" I whispered.

The whisper got lost in the noise of the crowd. The guard pushed me impatiently up the stairs onto the platform. My father screamed, "Silence" and the crowd went dead quiet. I looked at the crowd. They are in tears. Tears of anger and sadness. They don't think this is fair. They don't think this is right. I believe them and I respect them for that. I smiled at the crowd thankful for such believers. A man in a suit started talking about my fake accusations. I mean seriously. The only thing I did wrong was not running away sooner. I scanned the crowd looking for him. I don't want him to see this but I want to see him for one last time. I looked to the side and saw my family. My mother not caring if my father will see the tears running down her cheeks. Lucie was close to tears and my brothers with sadness in their eyes. I pulled my tongue at them and gave them a smile. I ignored my father's angry look on his face because I did that in front of a huge crowd. I don't care anymore. He can go die in a hole for all I care. My father walked onto the platform in front of me when the man finished.

"Any last words?" He said smirking.

I looked him straight into his eyes and said the words I know will haunt him for the rest of his pathetic live.

"I forgive you" I said and I meant it.

"What?" He said confused.

"I forgive you, father, with all my heart" I repeated.

"Sir. Your gun" a guard said handing him his gun and stopping him from saying something else.

He took it and walked behind me. He will shoot from behind to make an example for the crowd. I scanned the crowd again and there. Right there. The crowd parted to let the people go to the front. The people now stood in the front and I smiled at them.

"Love you" I mouthed.

Harry mouthed it back but it was forced. It was our goodbye. I looked to the side again at my family. All of them were in tears now but mother was missing.

"Stop! I will not let you kill my only child!" I heard her scream from behind me.

The gunshot went off and I felt nothing. I turned around and saw my mother holding the gun still in my father's hands up to the sky. That was when all hell broke loose. The crowd surged forward. Harry and his family ran towards me but disappeared in the running crowd. I lost them.

"Harry!" I screamed needing him to be with me.

"Tracy. Come on" Kevin said dragging me through the crowd.

He dragged me to the nearest building and pulled me upstairs. He pushed me into a room and told me to stay.

"No! I need to get Harry and mother" I protested.

"I'll go get them. You stay here. They won't be much use to you if you get killed by father or guards. They are looking for you, Tracy. Stay here" he demanded.

I nodded. He left closing and the door behind him. I saw a window and ran to it. I saw Kevin weave in and out of the crowd. I couldn't see Harry, his family, mother or father. The crowd are beating up the guards. Now that I smiled at. The door opened and Lucie, Naomi, Hector, Tasha, Albert, Austin and Tony came in. I immediately went and hugged them.

"Where's Harry?" I asked.

"We got separated. Sorry Tracy" Tasha said.

I nodded and went back to the window. I scanned the crowd. A gunshot went off and I flinched. Tony and Lucie stood with me by the window and we searched the crowd. The only one I know with a gun today is father. Then I saw father holding the gun and mother falling to the ground.

"No!" I screamed.

I ran out the building towards my mother. The crowd stood frozen but let me through. I kneeled next to my mother. Blood staining her blue dress on her right shoulder. I grabbed her hand and she pulled her tongue at me. I sobbed.

"Please mom. Don't leave me" I begged.

"Tracy, I love you honey. Don't ever forget that" she said.

"Until death do us part" I said.

She smiled. We started that saying when I was a little girl. I decided to carry on that little tradition we made up with Harry. Kevin kneeled on the opposite side of mother and the rest of my family and Harry's family stood around us. Then Harry appeared next to me and put his arm around me in comfort. She smiled at Harry and me before taking off her ring and throwing it at father.

"I will not die married to that monster" she explained.

I sobbed on Harry's chest after mother took her final breaths. Kevin stood up and faced our father.

"I hate you" he spat at father.

The look on father's face was full of shock. He never knew that all his sons and daughter hated him so much. One person from the crowd ran forward, grabbed the gun and shot my father three times. One in the head, one in the heart and one in his no-no zone. Both my parents: dead.

"I love you guys" I said.

To my surprised they replied, "Until death do us part". I hugged Harry.

"Tracy, I love you. We'll get through this together" Harry said.

"Love you too" I said.

We sealed our love to each other with a kiss.
