Her eyes strayed to her favourite picture above the fire place. A picture that portrayed two families as one. A picture that brought so many memories to her mind. A picture that reminded her of what she used to have.
A sad smile formed on her face as she looked at the frozen scene of two beautiful ladies who were sitting on a bench, laughing at the four children in front of them. Two of the four children couldn't have been more than five years old and they were probably chasing each other when the picture had been taken. The curly-haired young boy was sticking out his tongue at the young girl and she was looking very frustrated. Positioned behind the two kindergarteners were a boy and a girl. They looked like they were sneaking behind the two of the little ones. Cheeky grins were on both their faces as they were holding their hands out. On the left hand side of the picture stood two men and another curly-haired young boy. He couldn't have been more than eight years old. The two men were laughing over the barbeque pit as the young boy just stood beside them, admiring them and wondering what they were laughing about.
A sob escaped her mouth as she traced her fingers across every single person in the picture.
"I guess we're never going to be able to take another family photo like that one again, huh?" she asked softly, never meaning for anyone to hear her, as tears streamed down her face.
"I guess not," another voice whispered from behind her. She whipped around and smiled sadly at her best friend. He opened up his arms.
"I'm always here for you, Alex Russo," Nate Grey assured her. Alex collapsed into his arms and started sobbing as she let out every emotion she had been holding in.
A/N: What do you think? Should I continue?
