Authors note: Hi guys this is my first story ever so dont judge me to much. Sorry about caps they just pass my mind at the start of a sentence, also my spelling might not be perfect sorry. Any ideas let me know thanks.

POV : mother

"Hey Rick Im home." I announce to my husband as i walk through the door.

"Get your butt over here and love me". I waited for a couple seconds expecting him to walk into our living room and say something super cheezy like

"Hey my sexy muffin" that would make me laugh and say something even cheezier back.

"Rick?" what is he doing, if its video games agian.

"Rick are you ok? do you need me to come rescue you?" I say sarcasticly as I take off my shoes and tip toe down the hall to our bedroom. I jump out from behind the door and shout BOO. I have a gigantic smirk plastered on my face. I look on our bed and see my husband face down in an unnatural pose.

"Rick!" I run over to my husdands unconcious body.

"What did you do, please no" I say as I take his head in my hands. He felt so cold. I looked around the room and see several discarded bottles littering the floor.

"No, no not agian". I run to the phone and dile 911.

"What is your emergency?"

"My husdand is hurt, pease hurry." I hang up tears leaking own my face as I stare into my lovers lifeless eyes.

POV Hanna 10 years old

one hour later

I look up at my large oak door, wondering why I was sent home early. Mom sounded realy upset, almost at tears. I slide the key into the lock and twist.

"Mom, Im home can you tell me what happened now?" I walk inside and see my mom at the kitchen table her head in her arms. Across from her is an elderly woman with a suit case.

"Mom?" my only responce was her sniffling and pointing at her bedroom door. I look at her puzzled but walk over to the hallway.

Once I turn the corner I hear the old woman

"Beth, I dont think this is the best way for her to find out. It might realy scar her, shes so young" What am I about to see. I open the door slowly, afriad.

"da-d?" I see him lying down on the bed eyes closed.

"Dad whats wrong?" he dosent respond, I take a step closer and look at his face

"no". tears pour from my eyes. I run out of the room and look at my mom

"mom?" she knew what I was asking. Is it true, she nods. I run back to the room and look at my dad.

"Dad please get up, please" I put all of my metal stranth into it, willing him to get up.

"Ugg, my head hurts" my eyes widen in shock as my father sits up and places his hand to his head.

"What happened?" he groans

"You passed out dad, mom thought you had died. stay here i'll go get her" I jump off the bed and run to the living room.

"Mom. mom dads alive hes up and talking hes fine!" my mothers eyes widen and she gets to her feet weakly, walking towards the door. I get there first my dads up and standing with his arms open wide waiting to embrace my mom and tell her that everything is alright.

"Look!" I say pointing to him as my mom enters.

"What is this, Hanna?" she looks at the bed and then at me.

"I know its amazing hes alive everythings alright now" she looks horror struck

"Do you think this is a joke? Your fathers dead!" she screams, her face wet with tears. Dads hands have fallen to his sides and he steps into the doorway blocking her escape.

"Beth, its ok. I know I scared you, but I'll quit, I promise this time-" hes cut off as my mom steps towards the door to leave and passes through my dads body.
