Little Glory / Dolan twin

''We need to stick together''

Savannah POV.

'' Wake up savvy, i need you to cooperate with us today.'' Grayson spoke.

He didn't sound happy though. He normally has such a cheery voice but not today.

''I'm need help'' I giggled. Lounging out of bed with my arms up.

''With what Savannah, your 3 years old, your old enough to do most things by yourself. Now I want you down stairs as soon as you put on this outfit and brush your teeth.''  He snapped.

I sunk. He's  never spoken to me like that.

I did as I was told. I wore the dress that he lay on my bed. ( shown above) It was black and black shoes. i don't like black. Why is it all black?

I walked down the stairs. And saw both my brothers in black. Ooh we all match.

I sat on the step as I was a little hesitate  from how Grayson treated me.

''Look what a princess you are today?'' Ethan cooed at me, as he grabbed my hand and twirled me.
I started giggling.

''Stop messing around you two. I need to write my speech'' Grayson huffed.

I hid behind Ethan's leg. He's already snapped at me once

'Mate, calm down, you've been like this all morning'' Ethan sighed.

''This is important to me, I care about this day, I need mum to have a decent send off and be proud of me'' Grayson said quickly.

''I know, it's hard for all of us'' Ethan spoke as he looked down at me.

''Do you want to take a toy with you savvy?'' Ethan tightened my hand.

''YEAAAA'' I squealed.

I ran up the stairs on all fours and rushed into my room.

Ethan's POV.

I smiled as Savannah ran up the stairs.

I walked over to Grayson who was slumped over the kitchen bar.

''Mums going to be proud whatever you write gray'' I rubbed his shoulder.

'' I have to make this the best though'' Grayson teared.

''It will be, she will love it. You need to stop taking it out on Savannah and I though, we are trying to help, we are going through the same, we need to stick together''I continued.

''Whatever'' he got up and started putting on his shoes.

''Savvy, got your toy? We're going now!'' I shouted up the stairs.

She came running and sat on the stairs, she made it to the last but 4 steps and I opened my arms for her to jump into them.

She jumped and grabbed hold of my shirt as she laughed. I held her tight and I placed her correctly on my hip and carried her into the living room.

I sat down and placed her on my lap. Grayson sat down next to me.

''Savannah, we wanted to explain to you where we're going today'' I started to explain.

'Mums gone to the sky, and today we are having a special party to celebrate. It's a sad day for everyone so people might cry, but you can say goodbye.''

''Why did mommy die?'' Savvy asked,

Me and Grayson looked at each other.

''God thought it was her time to go.''

'' I don't want her to go, can't she come back?''

''No sweetie, she can't.''

''But why?''

''SHE JUST CANT OK!!'' Grayson snapped.

Savvy flinched.

Grayson's POV.

I didn't mean to snap, I'm not having a good time coping with today.

How does Ethan do it?

I watched as Savannah run into the kitchen.

''Wait, Savannah, I didn't mean to...''

I looked at Ethan for sympathy. '' I'm sorry Ethan, I'm not coping today.''

''Look I know your not, but please keep your cool, at least with us. Go to the boxing ring later and let of your steam then.'' Ethan spoke.

''Yeah, yeah, that seems like a good idea. Look I'm sorry, I'll go speak to Savannah and then will make a move''

Ethan nodded.

I walked into the kitchen and saw savvy just sat there, she wasn't crying but as soon as she saw me she whimpered.

I knelt down to her level and she flinched.

''Don't be like that please I'm sorry. '' I softly spoke.

'' I don't want to live without mommy'' she mumbled.

''Nor do I, but please can you be brave for me and Ethan'' I replied.

She smiled and nodded.

I grabbed her hand and helped her up from the floor.

She skipped to the door.

''What did you bring as your toy'' Grayson asked as he locked up the door.

I looked in her hand and it didn't seem like she brought anything.

''I brought dis and dis (this)'' she opened up her hands.

It was a polly pocket doll and her pacifier.

I furrowed my brow. '' Why do you have a pacifier, your not a baby.'' I asked.

She looked down at it and frowned.

'' I'll tell you what, I'll put it in my shirt pocket for you and keep it safe'' I reassured her. Although I didn't want her to get attached as it took months to get her off that thing in the first place.

She smiled and nodded.

We strapped in the car and left.

*after the ceremony*

Grayson's speech had everyone in tears. I was so proud of him and I'm sure mum was too.

Savannah didn't really understand the whole thing but she was really well behaved.

She kissed the coffin and went to find our grandparents.

It was just me and Ethan in the service hall.

We both cried. We haven't properly cried due to being brave for our sister but it felt raw and it felt good to let it out.

We both watched the coffin taken away.

''Goodbye mum'' Grayson whispered.
