Somewhere Only We Know
One year later
Kurt had sat silently throughout the service. "How could Mommy leave us? What will we do without her?" he thought, suddenly getting emotional. He looked around, everyone was crying, but not him. Once the service had ended, he and his father were saying good-bye to everyone. He was getting lots of hugs, but none of these made him feel any better. Once everyone left, he and his father sat in the truck, silently. "So, what do you want to do, Kurt?" asked his father. Kurt sat and pondered this for a moment and said, "To the fairy ring." His father started up the engine and headed toward the woods. When they arrived, they slowly walked down the path, both of them mute. When they got to the ring, Kurt pulled his father to the middle and sat. Burt looked at Kurt and after a while, started speaking. "You mother was perfect, KK. She was the most loving and gentle person I have ever met. Don't ever forget that Kurt." He looked at his father and said "I promise, Daddy." He then leaned into his father's shoulder and started to cry. They were the first tears he had shed since the death.
