I laid in my bed that night trying to think about what Elizabeth had said. All I could do was stare at the wall and think of Hayes and all our memories. I eventually fell asleep but not for long. I tossed and turned all night. I was so uncomfortable. Hayes was always the one to cuddle with me at night. He was my pillow. But not anymore.

I woke up the next morning to talking. I could hear Elizabeth talking on the phone in the hallway.

I got up and walked out of my room.

"What are you doing?" I asked

"Oh just on the phone planning Hayes funeral."

"You realize it's like 7 in the morning and everybody is still sleeping.?"

"I wanted a head start. Me and your mom can only stay for another 2 days so I'm planning for the funeral to be tomorrow afternoon" she said

"Don't you think I should be doing most of the work? I'm sure Hayes would have wanted me to do this" I said

"Oh sweetie you just rest. Your due in a week so I don't want to push you." She said and walked away

I turned around and stomped into my room and shut the door. I went back into bed and fell asleep for a couple more hours.

***8 hours later***

Elizabeth had everybody sitting down at the table coordinating us through what the funeral was going to be like.

"We'll you are very organized" my mom said

"Oh I know" she said

I rolled my eyes.

"So Aubree I want you to do say a speech about Hayes" Elizabeth said

"Obviously I was going to do"

"And you probably need to go buy a new black dress since you've grown" she said

"I'm going right now"

I got up, grabbed my purse and keys and walked out the door. I couldn't be in that room anymore.

"Aubree wait!!" I heard My mom said

I turned around and waited for her

"Let me go with you?" she said

I nodded and we both went to the car.

We drove to the mall and I went into forever 21. I still loved this store throughout my pregnancy I just bought big sizes.

I went over to look for a dress and found one I liked. It was a black dress with a little lace on it. I went to a dressing room and my mom followed behind me. She came in the dressing room with me and I put on the dress.

"Hey can you zip this up?" I asked her

She stood behind me for a minute and the dress wouldn't zip up.

"Is there a problem?" I asked

"Uh yeah. The dress won't zip"

She took her hands off the zipper.

"I'm sure it can fit if I try to suck in or something" I suggested

"I can try again"

I tried sucking In but it wouldn't work. I pushed my body back out and heard something rip.

"What was that?" I asked her

"The dress just ripped"

I started to get Teary eyed. I sat down on the seat and started crying.

"I'm so fat. Look at me." I mumbled crying

"Oh sweetie don't worry. This is natural you'll go back to yourself after labor." She said comforting me

I put my head in my hands and cried a little more.

"My life is just falling apart"

"Aubree everything is going to be okay. Now look wipe up your makeup and let's go to the maternity store and we can buy you a real dress that will fit you"

I nodded and put on my clothes and then we left.

**** the next morning****

"Aubree time to get up"

I heard the words but I tried ignoring it.

"Come on sweetie the funeral is in 2 hours."

I got up and my dad was standing in front of me.

I got up and he left the room. I went In the bathroom and took a shower. I got out and dried my hair. I wanted to straighten it. I put on all black makeup and then walked over to my dress. I looked at it but didn't do anything. I was dreading putting It on. I didn't want this day to have to come. I took it and stood in front of the mirror. I put the dress in front of me and then put on the dress. I grabbed my black flats and walked out.

We arrived at the funeral early because Elizabeth had to make sure everything was perfect.

"Can you guys gather around?" I asked the group

"So I made my decision. I'm giving the babies up. I want Alexa and Nash to keep both the girls. They can raise them best"

"What about me?" Elizabeth asked

"I don't want you raising one of them. I want Nash and Alexa to take full custody"

"It will be best for everybody" Nash agreed

Everybody just sorta agreed and went back to what they were doing.

Hayes was having an open casket so I stood in front of him until everybody got here. I grabbed his hand and held it till I had to let go.

After a while Alexa came over. It's time

To go sit down.

I let go of his hand and took my seat.
