Jason's POV:

I woke up and just stared at the ceiling for a few moments just recalling the events of the past couple of days.

I cannot believe this happened to us.

yeah, i was not that close to my parents, but that surely did not mean that i wanted them to die.

nothing makes sense to me right now.

"Are you o-ok?" A voiced asked from my floor.

I sat up and looked over the edge of my bed to see Justin laying on my floor with a bunch of blankets and pillows.

"how long have you been in here?" I asked him

"well i couldn't sleep so I came in here to ask if you could stay with me until i fell asleep, but i just came in here instead." he said looking at his hands

I sighed, "next time wake me up ok?"

"o-ok" he said looking up at me "But are you ok Jason? You were crying."

what? i wasn't crying.

i reached up to feel underneath my eyes and sure enough, it was wet. i was indeed crying, but i was too caught up in my thoughts to know that they wer causing me to shed a few tears.

"i was just thinking justin, ill be fine. are you hungry?" i asked him as i stepped out of bed.

"yeah a little" he said while getting up and cleaning up his sleeping mess off of my bedroom floor.

"well go get cleaned up then come into the kitchen and ill have breakfast ready for you." i told him while walking towards the kitchen

"Jason, there are so may people here that i don't even know." justin whispered to me.

we have been at the viewing for a good 3 hours now

Justin has been clinging to me the entire time, he won't even talk to his boyfriend.

"I don't know some of them either J but just say thanks for coming." I told him while slinging my arm around his shoulder.

This has been hard for me.

Nobody in my family loves me and now they give me dirty looks and I have to stay strong for justin.

"Would everybody please take a seat, we'd like to begin the service now." Father Jack said loudly through the microphone startling everyone that was conversing amongst each other in the room

Me, justin, and his boyfriend say in the front with justin being in the middle.

Some people complained that Justins boyfriend was in the front but hey, he needed the support.

"We gather here today not to mourn the death of Mr. And Mrs. McCann, but to celebrate the lives they lived. They were married for 23 years. That's a long time folks! These two surely were in love. Up until their last days they were hugging and kissing and holding hands and staring at each other adoringly. They had 2 children, 2 sons, Jason and Justin. They were both uniquely different, but both were equally loved by Jeremy and Pattie. They would want them to live beautiful, happy lives. They don't want to be mourned over, they would want to be remembered and celebrated. Is there anyone that would like to come forward to say a few words?" Father Jack finished talking about my parents and was now leaving some time for a member in the crowd to come forward to say what they'd like about my parents.

"Justin? Jason? Any words about your parents?" My cousin asked me.

"No, they know what I want to say. They can hear my thoughts and they know I love them." Justin said to her

I just looked at her and shook my head. There's no way I could get up there and speak without crying. I couldn't do it

"Without further ado, let's bless these beautiful souls...ashes to ashes, dust to dust......." I closed my eyes and zoned everything out because I knew I couldn't hold my tears in any longer.

"And I bless them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, Amen. The service has ended, go in peace" father Jack finished.

Time to say goodbye...
