*Ashton's POV*

Tinleigh hasn't left her apartment for a solid two weeks. I feel so horrible for my beautiful girl but I know there is nothing I can do to change the way she is feeling. I am trying my best to make her feel good about the life that she still has to live. She just isn't budging. These last two nights she actually let me sleep with her. That's an improvement for the time being.

"Alex called, beautiful!"

"Oh." I think that is the only word I'll get out of her right now.

"She said she will be on the first flight home so that she can be with you." Tinleigh was suppose to go on this tour and open up for Alex but when it came time to go Jocelyn, sweet, sweet Jocelyn passed. Alex had to find a quick replacement. Which wasn't hard because Tinleigh had decided her cousin Katie would go just in case her voice gave out. We just had to inform Alex of that. Luckily they knew each other.

After five minutes Tinleigh spoke up, softly but assertive, "She can't. Tell her to stay and that I'll be fine alone."

"What do you mean alone, babe? I'm right here. I've been right here." That hurt.

"I am alone, Ashton. I know you are here and I love you for it but I am alone and need to be alone."

"What are you trying to say?"

"I'm saying I need you to leave. Just go!"

"Tinleigh, you can't be serious!"

"But I am I just need you to go. please ju-," she pauses trying to hold back tears but it doesn't work, "just go." It is mumbled but I can make it out.

I take her in my arms and hold her as tight as I can. She tries to squirm her way out, punching my arms and pushing my chest but stops when she realizes I'm not going anywhere. That I am here to stay. "I'm not leaving you!"

That's all I have to say. I then pick her up and carry her to our room. I place her on the bed and cover her up and walk towards the door.

"Where are you going? I thought you weren't leaving?"

"I'm not, love. Just shutting the door and turning off the light." I do so and then make my back to the bed and climb in next to her.

*Tinleigh's POV*

Asthon climbs in the bed and cuddles in next to me. I am so lucky. I can't explain, in any amount of words, how much in love I am with him. I wish I could show him but I have no energy. My heart is barely holding up and he is the loose stictch that is holding it together. I have lost everyone. Every last person I have ever been close to. All at the same time it feels like. He's all I have! Him and of course, Alex!

I don't know what God has in store for me but I think if I am still holding it all together, that it is something amazing. He obviously feels I can handle anything.

*Ashton's POV*

"I love you, beautiful."

"I love you, too!" She whispers oh so silently. Filled with passion and hurt.

I wish God didn't take everybody she had. She can't live with half a blue sky. I need to find a way to heal her. I am in love with her and I need her!

*Sorry for the sappyness.*
