~◆~Kellys pov~◆~

"Wait what?" I asked Ray who had tears slipping out of his eyes. He intertwined his fingers together as we were sitting on the bench in the dog park. Boomer was still running around the dog park and trying to figure out how to get up that tree.

"I said. . .I'm thinking about not being Captain Man anymore. "Ray said as his voice cracked and I ran my hand down his back.

"Ray you can't just stop being Captain Man cause Swellview needs you." I said, but he shook his head.

"I just can't any more Kelly, there's just so much going on right now and I can't focus on Swellview right now. Annabel is in the hospital because of me and Bella is dead, also because of me and I'm losing everything I had. I lost the only person I have ever loved, and I don't think I'm going to find love ever again. Cause none of the relationships I had before worked out. Lastly I can't find out who killed Bella. Those four men are after Annabel and they won't stop until they have her. "Ray finished taking deep breaths and when he looked the other way. A cold breeze hit us and made me sliver.

Ray slowly turned his head to look at me and the moon light bounced off Ray's blue eyes, making them shine like crystals.  We stared into each others eyes as another cold breeze hit us making Ray's gaze at me disappear. He looked down at the ground and started speaking again.

"I have been Captain Man for years and my job has put Annabel in deep danger. If I stop maybe Annabel won't be in danger as much." Ray said and I felt anger roll through my body. I quickly stood up and walked in front of Ray. I put my index finger under his chin and lifted his head up.

His eyes met mine as I looked deeply into his light blue eyes, as the moon light hit the top of his head and his hair shined. He is dead wrong. It's not his fault that Bella's dead or that Annabel is in danger, and is in the hospital injured really badly. Even though I wasn't there to witness any of that, I know that what ever happened is not Ray's fault.

 But first what Ray has to do is move on from Bella. Bella is dead and is probably looking down at Ray with a halo over her head. If Ray wants to find love again and give it another try.

Then Ray has to move on from Bella and just accept that she's dead. There's no point in not trying to find love again.

All he has to do is let her go.

~◆~Annabels Pov ~ ◆ ~

"I won't let you go, I promise. " Ray said looking straight in my eyes. I looked down at the water that smashed on the sharp rocks. Ray had his hand gripping my arm so I won't slip out of his hands.

"Im gonna die!"

"No, you're not, trust me," Ray said, "I promise you that I will take you in my arms and I will never ever let go." Ray said and for a second I trusted him, but then I started to slip out of Rays hand. Then it all fell apart my hand slipped out from his hand.

I closed my eyes tightly as I heard Ray scream no. I felt the cold rush of the wind flow through my hair.

Then my body hit the sharp rocks at the bottom of the cliff.

"Dad!" I yelled jumping up then looking around the hospital room I was in. I heard beeping  and my heart was pounding against my chest. The lights were on and the television was on channel 8 news. I looked over to my right and saw a window, noticing that it's night time and that the stars are out and the moons light was bright.

Suddenly I feel someone's hand touch my shoulder. I quickly turned my head and saw Henry looking at me with a worried look. "Annabel?" Henry asked as I rubbed my eyes.

"What happened?"

"It's all over the news." I heard Henry say and he pointed to the TV that was on a dresser. With a flower vase that was white and was shaped like a heart. I looked at the TV and saw that Ray and I were on the edge of the cliff. Ray had his hand in his car that had grabbed my arm before I fell out of his car and hit the rocks.

So that wasn't a dream, that was real life.

Then Ray pulled me out of the car and the car fell off the cliff. Then lit on fire as I put my head in Rays neck as I cried. The car hit the bottom of the cliff and exploded.

I looked back over at Henry who was now holding my hand. I looked behind Henry and seen heart shaped balloons, with the words written on it get well soon. There was a bouquet of red roses with a huge pink bow wrapped around the bouquet, then there was a huge stuffed pink teddy bear that was bigger than me, probably like the size of this hospital bed.

 I also noticed that Henry's eyes were red.

He had cried.

"Henry who's are those?" I asked pointing to the balloons and that big pink teddy bear. Henry looked at me with a small smile.

"There yours." He replied.

"From who?"

"Me." Henry replies, running his fingers in his hair. He handed me a mirror and told me that my head is busted open, and I had cuts on my arms and legs. "Their going to take care of it, but for now you just need to relax and lay down." Henry adds as I look into the mirror and saw a huge bandage on my forehead. "But other than the forehead thing and the cuts I'm glad your alright. "He said handing me a red rose. I took it and seen Henry was blushing a little.

"Aw are you blushing?" I question as he looks down at the floor.

"No. . ." Henry said as his voice went low and his cheeks became redder.

"Yes, you are." I said poking his cheek and then his cheeks became a different shade of red. I giggled as he turned off the TV, and we stared into each others eyes for what seemed like forever.
