We parked in front of a massive building and got out of the car. My arm linked with Enzo's and Stefano and Tarra entered first. When the doors opened, the entire room was filled with many people from all over the world. I could hear different languages being spoken, and some little kids running around the room in suits and dresses. There were two little boys who looked around eight or nine chasing three girls who looked the same age. I smiled at the little kids and Enzo caught me.

Feel the way he puts me back together in his arms. It ate at my heart and I could have sworn I felt a feathery kiss on my head.
