(You guys know why to do, when you hit the bold play the music)

I held Emily close as she crying slowly stopped. She could probably still sleep for another half hour or so. I rocked her back and forth. She had a nightmare, she wasn't even fully awake when I came up to check on her. I started singing and didn't hear the door open behind.

I sang I hope you dance, by Lee Ann Womack. "I hope you never loose your since of wonder." I sang quietly, a small smile crossed her face.

Jack's POV

I walked up the stairs and heard Jenna singing again. (That's ur cue video)
It was absolutely breath taking.

I slipped in the door so I could hear her better. "I hope you never lose your sense of wonder, You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger," she rocked her sister back and forth... I thought to what Matt had said. How could anyone lay a finger on her.
"May you never take one single breath for granted, GOD forbid love ever leave you empty handed, I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean,
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens, Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance,
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance. I hope you dance....I hope you dance." Her voice was captivating. I'm surprised she hasn't noticed I was hear yet.

"I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance, Never settle for the path of least resistance Livin' might mean takin' chances but they're worth takin', Lovin' might be a mistake but it's worth makin', Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter, When you come close to sellin' out reconsider,
Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance, And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance. I hope you dance....I hope you dance. I hope you dance....I hope you dance." She sang as se began to lower her into the crib again.

"That was really beautiful." I finally spoke up. She jumped when she heard my voice oops. "Sorry." I whispered taking a step toward her.

"It's okay." She answered, tucking a lock of golden brown hair behind her ear. "I just didn't notice you were there." She whispered with a slight giggle.

I smiled. "You know, I meant to ask, what was the inspiration for your characters in your story... They seemed so life like." I asked even though I already knew the answer. I didn't want her to know that Matt told me her secret though.

She sighed. "Ummm." She said grabbing hold of her wrist and nervously ringing her fingers around it.

I looked down concerned. "What's wrong?" I asked gently taking her hand and lifting her sleeve. What I saw almost killed me. "Who hit you?" I asked.

She wouldn't even look at me. "No one, I accidentally hit my arm on my counter top before I left." She lied.

That's awful. "Have they ever hit her?" I asked talking about Emily.

She shook her head as she stared past me. Tears filling her eyes.

I wrapped my arms around her and placed my head on hers as she cried into my shirt. "Who ever it is can't hurt you here, Jenna." I said. This person made me so angry for making Jenna cry. For hurting her.

Jenna's POV

I held onto Jack like he was the only thing keeping me from falling apart, because at that moment, he was. I silently cried into his shirt. "I know." I said quietly. I felt his hand rubbing my back. He is so sweet and he barely even knows who I am... He knows more then my best friend about my problems though. Thankful he didn't bring up my own cuts... But that didn't last long.

"Jenna," he said. I looked up at him and saw the tears welling in his ocean blue eyes. "Please don't ever hurt yourself... Your to important and beautiful for that." He said hugging me even tighter.
