William's POV:

 

We layed there and talked for hours, laughing and crying about all the good times. She kept begging me to go to sleep, but I couldn't knowing she wouldn't wake up with me. She would start laughing and scolding me that it was 3:00 A.M in the morning. All those stories that we had and all those good times..We did not even forget to speak of each one. Her voice was like music to my ears and I could not stop kissing her, saying it was the last time but doing it again. "William please I wanna sleep!" She chuckled at me, smiling and brushing her hand over my cheek. Her fingers were cold on my skin and I blinked hard, looking into her eyes. "I love you" She spoke again when she did not recieve a reply, leaning up and pressing her lips to mine. I kissed back, pulling her smaller body closer to mine and wrapping my arms protectively around her. She pulled away with a smile and nuzzled her face into my neck, arms thrown over my shoulders and she tried again to sleep. "I love you too, baby. I always will only love you." Ispoke softly, yet my voice managed to break and sound raspy. I rested my head above hers and assumed she fell asleep when I did not recieve a reply. I gulped as we stayed like that for a while, and I continued to mentally yell at myself that she was only sleeping. She did not move anymore and her body was loose against mine. I was the only one trying to keep her close and I feared to check if she was still breathing.

"I love you too" I cried out, tugging on to the sweater she wore and holding her tightly. She was not breathing..and I was alone. She had to open her ees again, its impossible.

Valerie looked at me with her jaw dropped and eyes turning a slight pink as she held back her tears. As for myslef, I did not bother stopping myself and covered my face with my hands taking in a deep breath. It has been ten years..10 years since I've seen Alison, ten years since I've spoken about her. Meg did not bother asking me why I went to her grave almost every day after work, cause she was the one that wrote in a journal to her. I never answered questions to Valerie, Toby, or Diana.. I just did not talk about it.

"D-daddy I'm so sorry" Valerie whimpered,  loudly weeping as she covered her mouth. I looked up at her and held my finger to my mouth, "sshh its okay its okay" I mumbled and pulled the poor girl into my arms,hugging her tightly and letting her cry onto my chest. She had eyes like her mother's, and it was like seeing her instead of Valerie sometimes. Though Diana grew to be an exact Image of her.

"You know whenever I was your age all I wanted to do was fall in love..and I did." I rubbed her back soothingly and went on,

" And out of everyone in the world, I got to steal your mom's heart. We fell in love and we still are and I'm happy I got to spend so many years with her. So there is no reason to cry anymore..Yes we love and miss her but there will come a day that maybe we both get to see her again" I smiled down at Valerie who only listened, holding on to me. She slowly pulled away and leaned back into the pillows on her bed. I wiped her cheeks with my thumbs and she gave me a small smile. "I wish I got to know her like you did." she spoke again and I only stayed still for a moment. I reached into my pocket and pulled out the letter Alison left for her, covered in a small envelope. 

" Well she left this for you and before you know..she wanted me to tell you she really loves you. She refused to die because she wanted to hold you first." I chuckled at the memory, "You can read it and go to sleep now alright Pumpkin?" I ruffled her dirty blonde hair and she groaned, taking the letter and trying to fix her hair. "Goodnight daddy" She smiled at me, more excited now as her tears stopped and she held the only thing left for her from her mother.

I smiled in returned and closed her door slowly to not wake Diana and Toby. I headed to my room where stood Diana The Dobleganger. I smiled at her and knew the usual. Everytime she could not sleep she would join her awesome dad and fill her mother's empty place next to me.She rested her head on my chest and I gently rubbed my thumb over her back as we both tried to sleep in the dim lighted room, and she layed there wide awake. "Dad how did mom really die?" 

I clenched my jaw at the question and closed my eyes letting out a sigh. I opened them again and looked up at the ceiling, with no expression on my face. I couldn't keep these things from them. I couldn't just not talk about it. 

Once again I began to remence that day.

" She was really sick after a week of giving birth..she got worst on the last days. She told me and we layed in bed together and talked, laughd and cried. then I woke up and she didn't."

this is the last chapter of this story and a letter.  I'm really proud that I finished the story and I know that there are many like it based on that amazing and horribly sad song but I hope you enjoyed. 

Thank you for reading.xXx
