Parent's POV
We rush upstairs as a roaring gunfire goes off. Slamming open the door to Alex's room, staring as the blood from his body spread around him in a small puddle.
A massive wave of guilt catching us off guard, we new it was our fault but still refused to accept it. He was gone, he had one chance at life and we blew it for him.
Tears flowing down both of our miserable faces.
It was done.
There was nothing more we could do but at least give him a proper funeral.We bought the best coffin we could find and had a huge party in his memory.
Sanding in front of his grave we remembered all the few memories we had of him.
We remembered the bad jokes he always told, the tears he cried, the smile he had on his face no matter what and we'd always thank him for that. No matter what no matter how ugly, beautiful, silly, funny, quirky we would love him for him. Like we should've, like we should.
