Will's POV
It's been 3 days since Shelby passed and 2 since our baby died. I was still heartbroken. I can't believe the love of my life and my daughter died.

Today is their Funerals. Mostly for Shelby though. I was dressed in a black suite with a navy blue tie.

I went to eat a quick breakfast before Liam, Graser, and I left. I haven't really eaten much since I found out she died. It felt good to get good food into me.

We where the second ones to arrive, first being Ross. Jess and her family arrived soon after. Ross was sitting on a couch in tears. Jess went to comfort him.

Once everyone got here people started talking it the overall mood of the place changed. It made me mad. How could they all be talking casually when someone so amazing was dead. I started to tear up.

"Hey Will! Come grab a drink or something! Stop being a loner!" Graser called cheerfully.

It made me sick. I wanted to punch him right there and then. But instead I had an angry fit.

"How! How are you all enjoying yourselves when she is dead! The happiest person on earth, full of life and innocence! She is dead and you are acting like nothing has happened! It sickens me!" I screamed tears pouring down my face.

"Will, calm down," Scott said putting a hand on my shoulder.

"No! The love of my life! My world! My purpose to live! She is gone! Dead! I will not calm down!" I shouted nearly punching Scott in the face.

Everyone was silent.

"You are right! Guys, what are we doing? Our friend... she is gone! And we are just chilling out having a good time while she is dead! Some friends we are!" Jess cries.

Tears are falling down her face. Shelby had told me that Jess is like her sister. She was breaking. It was as if it had all just slammed into her. I walked over to Jess and gave her a hug. Everybody joined in and we all formed a group hug.

The next morning was Shelby's wake. I was chosen to help carry her to her final resting place. I got dressed and went to the place.

Shelby looked so beautiful. So peaceful. She was wearing a red dress and was holding some roses. Jess had done her makeup. She looked so lovely and peaceful. She had rose petals tossed on her. It was like she was in a bed of roses. I snapped a picture of her beauty. It would be the last picture of her ever taken.

Soon it was time for the wake. They had played a song while everyone mourned her. Then we took her to the grave yard. I carried her tomb to her grave. After a small prayer we lowered her into the ground. This is where she will be forever.

Tears slipped down my eyes as we started piling dirt on her. I read the title of he grave stone.

Here lies Shelby Grace
Loved by everyone
RIP

After we finished piling on dirt we put flowers on the grave.

"I will Always Love You," I murmur before going back to the hotel.

I was about to go to bed when I realize her fans need to know. I quickly grab equipment and set it up. I hit record and take a deep breath.

"Hey guys, you are probably thinking, 'Will! Where's Shelby? This is her channel!' Well I'm here to tell you about Shelby." I take a deep quivering breath. I felt my eyes fill with tears. "Guys... Sh-Shelby is dead..." I choke out. Tears fall down my cheeks. "She... she was murdered. Her and our baby. Yes... I said baby... she was pregnant..." I started to full on cry now. "Shelby was shot down while saving a little kid. A man had taken the little girl and Shelby... she saved her... I... I just got back from her wake. She was beautiful. She was laid down in a bed of roses." I say crying so hard that I loose me voice. I take a minute to recuperate. "She didn't die in vain. She will rest in piece... thank you for watching... this is unedited... Goodbye Shelby..." I ended the video crying uncontrollably.

I log onto her you YouTube account to post the video. I knew exactly what picture would be the thumbnail. It would be the last picture ever taken of her. I just needed a name for the video. Then it came to me. I would call it:   Bed of Roses

Thank you for reading chapter 15 of Love Bites. It was a very sad chapter and I cried a bit while writing it. There is one more chapter to go. Note that next chapter will be short. Anyway, there is a song called bed of roses that you can listen to. Bye!
