All We Have (Book 2)

32

Colson

We went to court when they had the trial for Gina. Jane and I both asked for the state to have her commited. The court ruled in our favor and Gina was placed in a long term mental institution. There was a possibility that she could be released some day but that wouldn't be until at least 2056. And even then she still might not be released.

After everything that we had been through we made a decision as a family to move. It wasn't an easy decision for us. We had made so many memories here and this was Jane's dream home. But it was a decision that had to be made. We couldn't go back to our house. It had to many painful memories and I couldn't put Jane through all of that again. So this was for the best.

As soon as the twin's were able to come home we packed up and moved to Los Angeles. We figured that the move would be a fresh start for all of us. The guys started working with other artist creating some dope music. Casie got into a private school for the arts. Which was something she always dreamed off. Jane and Drake's perfume and cologne line was a big hit. Jane was so happy with how things turned out that she decided to start working on her own cosmetic line. The twins were thriving and growing everyday. As for me I'm still working on my music but if you turn on your TV your sure to see my face somewhere. Life's good now.

Jane had just put the twins down for a nap and now we were both relaxing on the deck as we watched Casie and the guys swim. Gunner was sleeping in between me and Jane's lounge chairs. For the first time in a long time we were all in a good place. We were all happy, health, and safe. Throughout all of this I learned to never take anything for granted. Cherish ever moment no matter how small it might seem. Life can change in an instant. One day you could be on top and next you could lose everything.

"Hey Gina, I got something for you." One of the orderlies said as he peeked his head inside the room.

He walked in and stood in front of her, not sure if she was coherent enough to full understand what he was saying. Gina has rarely talked since she's been here, but when she does she only sings. If Gina would refrain from attacking the staff here maybe the orderly could talk them into allowing her to do music therapy as part of her treatment.

"You've been really good lately and I think you should be rewarded. But ya gotta promise not to snitch on me, ok." He said.

Gina still didn't respond. He took the mp3 player from his pocket and connected it to a pair of headphones. He placed the headphones onto Gina's ears and pressed the play button. The music started to play and then a familiar voice started to sing. Suddenly Gina's face lit up like a Christmas tree and she started to sing along with the music.

And we don't need rehab, mmm mmm
We don't need rehab, mmm mmm
We don't need rehab, mmm mmm
We don't need rehab
We don't need rehab

Would you be happy if I let you go?
Even if the highs feel low
Even if you couldn't sleep because you couldn't feel me underneath the covers when your eyes closed
I'm gettin' faded 'cause our love is faded
If I'm a monster then it's 'cause you made 'im
Beauty and the beast, now that's an ultimatum
Go with what you love, or follow what is gonna save you
