Gwen was alone in front of a camera. Peter was on the floor. His legs were pressed onto his chest and his arms were over his chest. He was trembling and faint sobs came from the boy. By now the two looked about 14-15.
"Hey guys. Today was Uncle Ben's funeral. Were all shaken up so I wrote a song. It's for Peter. Its more of a lullaby but whatever." Gwen placed her hands her hands on the guitar in front of her and started playing.
" I remember tears streaming down your face when I said I'll never let you go
When all those shadows almost killed your light
I remember you said don't leave me here alone
But all that's dead and gone and passed tonight
Just close your eyes, the sun is going down
You'll be alright, no one can hurt you now
Come morning light, you and I'll be safe and sound
Don't you dare look out your window, darling everything's on fire
The war outside our door keeps raging on
Hold onto this lullaby even when the musics gone, gone
Just close your eyes, the sun is going down
You'll be alright, no one can hurt you now
Come morning light, you and I'll be safe and sound
Just close your eyes, you'll be alright
Come morning light, you and I'll be safe and sound"
When Gwen finished, Peter looked up and you could see his red eyes. He choked out another sob and Gwen came running to Peter. She cradled him in his arms and held him to her chest. She started to whisper sweet things to the boy as her cried. His cries were as bad as last time.
He felt like it was his fault. He felt so...so lost. Ben and Peter were close. Like father and son instead of uncle and nephew. And now he was gone. And Peter was left in a world with no father figure...for now.
The memory faded on the screen. Peter could still hear the song in his head. Playing for him. He remembered Gwen's smile. Her eyes. Her personality.
He missed her. He longed for a hug from her. He longed for her to make her horrible jokes. He longed for her, everything about her.
The screen went back on. Daniel and Tony still had their hold on Peter.
