I woke up with a pounding headache. I look around my room for some painkillers but instead on the floor I see a sleeping Isaac.
*******Isaac's pov.********
I wake with a killer headache and this floor isn't very comfortable. Whit what am I doing on a floor?
Suddenly, Lucy barges through the door and it slams, and wakes Sophie up.
"What is wrong with you?" Sophie half yells, and half groans.
"Get up,we need to go to the hospital. It's your mum!" Lucy yells and Sophie instantly shoots up and jumps out of bed.
"Come on Isaac you're coming." She says, grabbing her black skinny jeans and a top off the floor and running to the bathroom to change . I don't question her and I pull on my shoes and we both run down the stairs.
We rush out the front door to see Lucy in the drivers seat of my car. Lucy has put a bag of things for Sophie's mum in the passenger seat so we both just jump into the back.
"Sophie, your mum was in a car accident and is now in surgery." Lucy says rather quietly. Sophie looks like she's about to break down, so I wrap an arm around her and hug her tightly.
She's obviously crying because her shoulders are shaking and her tears are soaking my shirt.
***skip the rest of the car ride***
We rush in and head straight to the front desk.
****Sophie's pov.****
As we reach the desk I instantly ask for my mum, then the nurse said the words no child ever wants to hear.
"I'm so sorry, honey she just passed away." It felt like my whole world just fell apart.
Lucy instantly was by my side hugging me, I was bawling by now. Lucy's phone started ringing and she went to answer it. Isaac pulled me into his chest.
***Time jump, it's been 5 days***
It was the day of the funeral. I don't know what I would have done these past few days without Lucy and Isaac. I barely left my room or the house. My aunt Jane is coming in from London for the funeral. She is the only family member I know, most of the people who knew my mum will be coming. I got dressed with great struggle. (Outfit on the side bar) The drive to the funeral was horrible and it felt like it was going on forever.
We all took our seats and people started talking. I heard speech after speech about my mum. Then it was my turn. I walked up to the podium and started speaking.
"Hello, I'm Sophie. I'm not going to make a speech today because I couldn't put how much I love and miss my mum into words so I'm going to sing something." I picked up the guitar and I started playing.
"Oh if you could see me now
(Oh if you could see me now)
It was February fourteen, Valentine's Day
The roses came, but they took you away
Tattooed on my arm is a charm to disarm all the harm
Gotta keep myself calm but the truth is you're gone
And I'll never get to show you these songs
Dad, you should see the tours that I'm on,
I see you standing there next to Mom
Both singing along, yeah arm in arm
And there are days when I'm losing my faith
Because the man wasn't good he was great
He'd say music was the home for your pain
And explain, I was young, he would say
"Take that rage, put it on a page
Take the page to the stage
Blow the roof off the place"
I'm tryna make you proud
Do everything you did
I hope you're up there with God
Saying that's my kid
I still look for your face in the crowd
Oh if you could see me now
(Oh if you could see me now)
Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow
Oh if you could see me now
(Oh if you could see me now)
If you could see me now would you recognize me
Would you pat me on the back or would you criticize me
Would you follow every line on my tear stained face
Put your hand on a heart that was cold
As the day you were taken away
I know it's been awhile but I could see you clear as day
Right now, I wish I could hear you say
I drink too much and I smoke too much dutch
But if you can't see me now that is a must
You used to say I won't know a winner until it cost me
Like I won't know real love till I've loved then I've lost it
So if you've lost a sister, someone's lost a mom
And if you've lost a dad, then someone's lost a son
And they're all missing now, and they're all missing now
So if you get a second to look down at me now
Mum, Dad, I'm just missing you now
I still look for your face in the crowd
Oh if you could see me now
(Oh if you could see me now)
If you could see me now
Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow?
Oh if you could see me now
(Oh if you could see me now)
Oh... Oh...
Would you call me a saint or a sinner?
Would you love me a loser or winner?
Oh... Oh...
When I see my face in the mirror
We look so alike that it makes me shiver
I still look for your face in the crowd
Oh if you could see me now
(Oh if you could see me now)
Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow?
Oh if you could see me now
(Oh if you could see me now)
I still look for your face in the crowd
Oh if you could see me now
(Oh if you could see me now)
Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow?
Oh if you could see me now
(Oh if you could see me now)
Oh...
You could see, you could see me now
(You could see, you could see me now)" I sing finishing the song.
"This is the second time burying a parent, and it doesn't get easier." I finish with tears rolling down my cheeks.
