Nicole's POV

The tour months flew by and we were finally home where I just lied in bed until I had to go to work. I just couldn't believe my mom was gone. She was the only family Tori and I knew.

I pulled the covers over my head as I sighed. I feel like my heart has been ripped in half. My mom was my rock and I always went to her when all else fails. Tears rolled down as I closed my eyes. "Baby..." Brian ran his hand softly over my back.

"I will be ok." I said quietly.

"You're only saying that so I won't worry, but I am worried Nicole." Brian pulled back the covers.

"I'm sorry... But, that wasn't just my mom Brian. She was my best friend, my rock... When I needed to vent or needed comfort she was there... She's gone!" I bawled.

Brian hugged me tightly. "She's in your heart babe. She will always be with you and Tori. She's looking down on you and her."

I looked into Brian's chocolate brown eyes as he dried my tears. "How do you cope?"

"Take it day by day. Instead of being sad, remember things that made you smile and laugh. Those are the memories to cherish the most. It will help you remember how their smile looked and how happy they were before they left." Brian explained. "Remember that she is finally at peace with no pain what so ever and she is ok now."
