It was midday, the 24Th of July. The birds were singing and the sun was shinning. The church bells ringing. A beautiful day for sure. But all that was missing was laughter and smiles. No one seemed happy today. They were all talking about the funeral of John and Carla and their orphaned children. Everyone loved my parents so I wasn't surprised when nearly all the town came to the funeral.

I stood at the entrance of the hall were the ceremony would be held and greeted the familiar people as they talked sadly about the loss. I couldn't think. I felt like a zombie. As if someone else were controlling my body... As if there was none of me left.

My purple eyes searching the crowd for a happy person to cheer this place up. But no everyone was in their own little world. The Jones and the Callahan's had already arrived and were at the front, talking quietly. Kitty and her family were here as well sitting quietly waiting for the ceremony to begin. All had soft tears in their eyes as though they wanted to cry but knowing it was not the right time. 

The man organising this event singled that it was time to start. I silently walked to the front of the room well aware of the thousands of eyes following my every move as if they expected my to break. I kept my face as straight as possible not wanting to show how broken I was. You could hear a pin drop.

"Good morning ladies and gentlemen we are all gathered today to show our respect to our close friends, Mr and Mrs Rivers. They had unfortunately been killed by a man of no name. Lets all pray to their well being blah blah blah,"I thought as I zoned out. I could see my PA at the corner crying to herself. At least someones listening.

For the past two weeks I've been staying with Parker and his parents because 'I am underage and not able to live on my own' or what ever crap but seriously I was not alone!

I looked at my parents coffin and sighed deeply. A particular memory came rushing to me as I stared at the box containing my dead parents...

I screamed waking up from a horrifying nightmare clutching Mr. Teddy to me. The door to my pink bedroom burst open and two very worried parents came rushing in. With my brother and sister in tow but left when they realised it was nothing to spark their interest. My mother was in her blue sleeping gown and my farther in pajama shorts. 

They both rushed to a six year old Ace with open arms as I sobbed hysterically. 

"Hush princess, Mommy and daddy are here",my dads soft voice came to me as he stroked my jet black hair gently.

"What happened sweets?" my mum asked planting  soft kiss on my forehead.

"I had... a... bad nightmare...*hiccup* with you both in it!" I chocked out.

"What happened in your nightmare sweets?" my mum interrogated sending a worried glance at dad.

"There was...a... B-B-BAD man... saying he'd wanna... send you both away from me... and then feed you to monsters!" little me cried burying my face in my dads arms.

"Shhhh... Its gonna be okay. We are not gonna leave you. Ever. So get that stuck in that pretty little head of yours", dad said with determination in his voice.

"Mommy? Daddy? Don't You ever leave me"

"Promise, cross our hearts and hope to die", they replied together before tucking be back in bed and lying down next to me.
