Molly's POV

After my dad had asked me to sing to him, we had changed the mood to a light hearted conversation.

We had all been talking together for a few hours before, it started to drift into silence.

My dad yawned, before looking at me.

I hadn't trusted my voice to speak so, I just furrowed my eyebrows at him asking if it was time.

He slowly nodded towards me.

I could see he was scared.

But he would never show it, just like me.

I knew he wouldn't want me to point it out either, so I didn't.

These past few hours could've been spent by us, crying by each other's side, saying how much we would miss each other.

However, instead we had fun and talk and had a great time.

Making the possible last few hours of his life good memories instead of bad ones.

He accepted it.

I admired that. The fact that he just go on with whatever was in front of him and we didn't need to, talk and discuss how much we love each other.

We weren't good with sharing emotions but, over the years we have made it very clear how much we mean to each other, so it didn't need to be said again.

I got up from my chair, feeling the boys, Austin, Levi, Nate and Drew watching my every movement.

I stood at my dads bed, looking down at him.

I grabbed hold of his hand and smiled at him, I wasn't going to make this more sad than it had to be.

I breathed in and out out a few breaths before looking down at him.

"Love you" I said, almost a whisper.

He just nod, smiling weakly at me.

I clear my throat, quickly my eyes flicker around the room.

A bit nervous to what the boys will think.

That didn't matter right now.

I shook my head before, starting.

It's alright to cry, even my dad does sometimes.

So don't wipe your eyes, tears remind you you're alive.

It's alright to die cause deaths the only thing you haven't tried.

But just for tonight, hold on.

I sung it, feeling my eyes slowly well up with tears.

My dad started to smile, closing his eyes happily.
