Oh man, ya'll know what I just realized? I love torturing Bobby and Alex! MWAHAHA!! (clears throat) Okay, so maybe I didn't just realize it... So, ya'll know the drill, bunnies. Read, and please review!
Disclaimer: They ain't mine... Let's just not go there right now, okay? (grins evilly)
This chapter is for Confused, for her help with the song and story title. Thanks, girl!
The rain pounded ruthlessly around them as the tiny casket was lowered into the ground, disappearing into the dark hole. The people who had gathered solemnly around the grave began dropping roses onto the coffin, and the parents of the small child clung to each other.
One by one, the mourners left, until only five people remained around the tiny hole. Carolyn leaned into Mike's embrace and rested her head on his broad shoulder, shaking a little when his hand slipped down to rest on her large stomach. He reached out and touched Alex's shoulder, his mind void of any appropriate words that could explain his sorrow for their loss. So he didn't say anything.
A few minutes later, Mike guided his pregnant wife from the gravesite, and Deakins soon followed them.
Alex stared at the marble headstone, oblivious to everything around her. All she could see were the words etched into the smooth stone.

Heaven Was Needing An Angel
As she read the words over and over, all she could think was, Why my son? Why my baby? Bobby leaned closer to her, and she allowed herself to lean on him as she cried for her son, for their son.
Oh the ocean's a little bit bigger tonight
Two more teardrops somebody cried
One of them happy and one of them bluer than blue
The tide goes out and the tide comes in
And someday they'll be teardrops again
Released in a moment of pleasure or a moment of pain
Then they drift on down and ride to the sea again
TBC...
A/N: (passes around boxes of Kleenex) Okay, so go review if ya'll wanna see how I make it better... Oh, and the song is Two Teardrops, by Steve Wariner. Now, go review, bunnies! Go!
