Stephens P.O.V

"I kinda don't know where to start...
Haven Amara... the love of my life... the most beautiful woman I have ever laid my eyes on...
7 years ago I was in a bar and I didn't want to be there so I went and sat down and I was blessed enough to sit down next to this stunning woman who didn't want to be at that bar either..."

Everybody chuckled at his story.

"I talked to her and spent my night flirting to the best of my ability and she surprisingly gave me her number even though she was out of my league so I was obviously pretty excited and celebrated more then I'd like to admit... but I didn't know that would be the night that changed my life forever, soon haven became my everything she was the first person I texted in the morning and we ended our nights with phone calls and I texted her every chance I got even if it was in between plays at practice I would make time for her always" I laughed thinking about the moment.

"I was beyond excited when she told me she was moving to California and I felt like everything in my life was coming together and I had never been happier, just months later I asked her to marry me... she had the most beautiful smile on her face when I got down on one knee and it was the only time I was okay with making her cry... she was so happy too and she didn't need to say it because it showed, she was glowing with happiness and it made every mistake in my life worth it because everything I've ever done has led me to her... don't get me wrong our relationship is not perfect not even close... but to us it was.
Yes we fought sometimes and it was mostly me getting mad at her because I never realized that everything she was doing, she was doing to try and help me become a better man... and I never even noticed... it was like when I sat with her nothing else existed... she was everything I was looking for, she knew when I was sad, when I was happy, when I was angry, and when i wasn't even sure what I was feeling and no matter what mood I just so happened to be in that day she knew how to handle it... it was no secret God made her just for me... she was everything I needed and more..."

Thoughts started to cloud his mind before he could finish.

"She was my rock. When we lost a game or I had a hard practice, when I would fight with my family or get hate for doing something wrong she stood by my side until my wounds were healed.
She never complained about what she had to put up with, she took care of me with a smile on her face and I tried to do the same.
She was by my side when I had to get many surgeries. She was by my side when I was sick.
She's always been with me through everything."

Stephen went on and on about the woman he cared about more then anything... it was the only thing that kept the dark thoughts out of his head.

The screaming... the crying... the blood... so much blood.
The hours in the hospital waiting for her to wake up... but she never did.

Hearing that haven was brain dead made Stephen feel like his heart got ripped right out of his chest. He never wanted to feel that again...

"Haven and I were supposed to grow old together... she was supposed to be with me right now... God had other plans for us though... I try to be grateful that I got 7 years with her before she was tragically taken away from us but it still hurts.
I know she is in heaven right now looking down on me saying "suck it up"
She wouldn't want to see me crying like this she would want this to be a happy time but it's still hard... I just miss my girl..."

Unfortunately speaking at her funeral wasn't the hardest part for Stephen.
The true struggle came when he had to walk into the house that was once filled with the bright spirit of haven, full of laughs and sometimes tears...
it was the waking up and her side of the bed being empty.
Coming home and her not running to the door screaming "welcome home baby"...
The lonely showers...
The lonely nights...
Just being alone...
