"He's still in his room isn't he?" I asked looking down at my food. Nods and mutters followed causing me to sigh and slowly get on my feet.

With the prosthetic leg I walked up the stairs to his and Fred's room. When the door opened I noticed the bottom bunk, George's bed, was empty.

Fred's top bunk had a sad little lump under the sheets with soft cries coming from there.

Everything flashed back. Two of my friends died. To save me. The useless piece of crap that has no more use in the world. Why would they save me?

I shook my head and slowly got up the latter being careful with my leg. I then sat on the edge of the bed.

"George?" I asked softly causing him to turn and face me after a bit.

His eyes were so puffy and red it made my heart hurt just looking at him. He looked so distressed and confused and mainly upset. I knew exactly how it felt.

He reached his arms out like he did the night his ear got shot. This time I didn't say no.

I scooted closer and he immediately hugged me to where I was on his lap with his face buried in my neck as he sobbed.

I held him and closed my eyes not knowing what to do when I remembered what he'd do for me. Taking in a shaky breath I began singing.

You are my sunshine

My only sunshine

You make me happy

When skies are gray

You never know dear

How much I love you

Please don't take my sunshine away

He started quieting down a bit in my arms making me hold him tighter. I felt my voice wavering.

The other night dear

As I lay sleeping

I dreamt I held you

In my arms

When I awoke dear

I was mistaken

So I hung my head and I cried

I took a deep breath trying not to cry and cause him to cry again and continued.

You are my sunshine

My only sunshine

You make me happy

When skies are gray

You never know dear

How much I love you

Please don't take my sunshine away

He moved his head so it was resting on my shoulder, but his nose and breath still touched my neck.

I'll always love you

and make you happy

If you will only

say the same
