Eternally Yours ~ Ryan Sitkowski MIW

Voices

Charlie swore on everything she had that she never rearranged the funeral arrangements without consulting anyone. She hadn't even been in contact with funeral home since Jaime was being brought to Charlie and Ryan's place.

Tegan started crying as the men closed the coffin and bolted it shut. As they brought the coffin out of the house and into the back of the hearse, she screamed. "JAY!!! JAY!!!!!!!!!"

"Jay" was what Tegan called Jaime whenever she was around. Everyone called her "Jay" from time to time, but mainly Tegan called her that.. and although she didn't fully understand what was happening, she really didn't like the fact that her aunty was in a big box and being taken away.

Everyone started crying all over again as the hearse pulled away from the house. It was cries of pain.. anger.. stress and frustration.

Ryan got Tegan into her pyjamas, but couldn't stop himself from breaking down after he put her to bed. He tried to dry his tears as he was walking down the stairs, but ultimately failed when he heard his brothers, sisters and girlfriend crying.

"Ch-Charles.. you're sure you didn't call the funeral home?" Ghost asked Charlie. She shook her head. "I-I swear I didn't.. I would never do that without asking you guys first. I.. I can't bury my sister tomorrow!!!" She said, hysterically.

Ryan stood at the bottom of the stairs, in silent tears. He hated hearing Charlie so upset. She had been through enough and just when everyone thought it was all beginning to calm down, it piled right back up again.

Ryan wanted to go back into the living room, to Charlie, but he couldn't move. He didn't know if he was in a state of shock, or anger. A mix of both, if he was going to be honest about it.

Ricky walked out of the living room, and found Ryan at the front of the staircase.

"Who would d-do that?" Ricky asked. Ryan shook his head. "I don't know, Ricky. But if I ever get my hands on them, they'll have negative four seconds left of life and I'll have a life sentence in jail." He said. Ricky thought for a minute. "Can I be your celly?" He asked. Ryan nodded. "Sure." He said.

"Are you coming back in..??" Ricky asked. Ryan still had tears falling down his face. He nodded. "Y-Yeah.. I can't leave Charlie in there." He said, and the two walked shared a hug before going back into the living room.

Charlie was sat beside Kuza, with her head buried in her shoulder. The minute she seen Ryan, she stood up and ran towards him. Ryan caught her in a hug and kissed the top of her head.

"It's okay, Charles." He said, quietly. "Is everyone okay?" Ryan asked. Everyone either mumbled a 'yes' or nodded.

"We should all go and get some rest, seeing as the funeral is- unfortunately- tomorrow." Chris said. Everyone nodded in agreement. "Yeah, you're right. Rest up, guys." Ryan said in agreement.

Everyone shared one big hug before heading their seperate ways and going home. It was almost midnight, but Charlie and Ryan stayed in the living room.

"Ryan...??" Charlie asked, quietly. Ryan looked at his girlfriend. "Yeah, Charles?" He asked. Charlie took a deep breath. "A-Are you okay?? Please don't lie to me." Charlie asked.

Ryan gave a small, tired smile. "I don't think anyone is okay right now, Charles. I really don't know. But, we'll be okay soon." He said.
