Anna's POV

When we walked into Eli's room, she was already in tears.

"It's alright Anna, I already know." Elli said holding Alex on her lap.

"Eli Im sorry." I said and sat down on the floor and hugged her. "I wish I could cry with you Eli but I have seen this happen to much for me to cry." I said and she pulled me back and smiled.

"But I know that your crying on the inside and thats all that matters." She said and we hugged again. I pulled her up we walked to my car. Eli was in the back with Alex and Masson was in the front With me. We drove to the funeral parlor and planed it all out and called the local preacher.

Two weeks later

The funeral is at 2:00 and It's 1:30. Eli and I are getting ready. I'm wearing my black dress and black converse that I wore when my parents divorced. I put on some mascara and eye liner. Eli finished getting ready then we got in my moms car and drove off.

During the funeral Alex had fallen asleep, and my mom was hugging my while I held Masson hand. I think the part of the whole thing was seeing them put Alex's body in the ground, knowing that he was dead. It scared me that this was the final time that I would see him.

Eli and I walked out together with my mom and Masson behind us. We sat in a teary silence the whole way home and then didn't even talk when we entered the house. Mom had to go back to work and take Alex to the doctor to get him vaccinated from colds and all that so she said good bye. Then It was just Eli, Masson, and I. No body spoke till I couldn't handle the situation and spoke up.

"So....what do we do now?" I asked. Since it was Saturday there wasn't school.

"I-I don't know. We just lost one of our
Crew members to death and my son could die any second because of this dang cold. He is to young and not able to handle it." Eli said. Then she clasped her hand over her mouth.

"Wait. What do you mean?" I asked.

Eli sighed and looked at me,"that's why  mom is taking him to the doctor. He has to stay there till he is better. He can't handle it. He could die in his sleep and be gone just like that." She said and then we all decided to go to sleep but first, we set up a memory blanket for baby Alex.
