Chapter Twenty-Eight: One Last Time

A few years went by, Squid laid in his bed, beside the woman he has been in love with since he was seventeen. His arm tightly wrapped around her waist, he slowly pulled her closer to him. After the incident at Kaylie and Richard's wedding, Squid was afraid to death of loosing her. He would not have been able to take it if he had lost her, that, to him, would have been a hell he would never escape. He smiled, contently, realizing that wasn't going to happen, not yet anyway... He still had his little piece of Heaven with him... until...

Squid's alarm clock went off, making him quickly let go of her so he would be able to turn off the ringing clock. He groaned, hating getting up at four in the morning to go to work. This reminded him of his time spent at Camp Green Lake, which made this annoyance only worse. He saw her roll over onto her side, her emerald eyes wide open and awake. She wore a grin upon her face.

"Have fun today, Alan," she giggled, mockingly.

Squid pretended to glare at her. "Oh leave me alone, Brianna," he said, giving her a lopsided grin, which only made her laugh.

"You're so weird," she added, childishly. Squid leaned in and kissed her deeply on the mouth. "And I love you for it," she said, gladly returning the kiss. Squid got up and went into the bathroom as Brianna tried her best to get back to sleep, but unfortunately she could not, because of the racket Squid was causing in the bathroom. "What are you doing in there?!" she asked, perplexed at the noise coming from the bathroom.

"I can't find my clean shirts!!!!!" he shouted, back at her. Brianna slapped her forehead.

"Idiot," she mused.

Squid peaked his head out of the bathroom door and stared at his wife. "What did you say, Bri?" he question.

She smiled, innocently, "Nothing, love." Squid smiled back at her, obilivious as to what she had said a few moments ago. Brianna only could laugh at what had just happen.

"BRI!" pouted Squid, coming back out of the bathroom in his boxers. Brianna smiled slightly.

Brianna whispered, "Didya check the closet?"

"Yes!" pouted Squid.

Brianna laughed slightly, "Try the dresser." Squid went over to the dresser and searched the dresser. After about five minutes of searching, Squid finally found one of his clean shirts.

Brianna tried to sleep once again, until Squid said, "Brianna, which tie should I use?"

"Black," Brianna said, not even opening her eyes to see what he was wearing.

"Thanks babe," Squid said, glancing over at her and noticing she had fallen asleep again. He laughed softly to himself as he finished preparing for another long day at his job. He walked over to Brianna's side of the bed and kissed her on the cheek, making her eyes flutter open.

"What now?" she asked, sleepily.

"Will you come by later?" he asked, innocently.

Brianna could only smile as she nodded. "Yes. Now stop whining," she said, kissing Squid gently. He smirked as she pushed him away. "Alan... no..." hissed Brianna, making him blush.

"Fine..." Squid whispered. "I'll see you later, right?"

"Yes, Alan... Don't worry," she assured, smiling at him. They kissed each other goodbye and Squid left, leaving Brianna finally able to sleep. She slept until eight in the morning, because her adoptive son, Pierce (a/n: SHANNON!). Pierce's real mother was Kaylie's friend, Shannon, but Shannon wasn't exactly ready to have a third child. Her and her husband, Ryan, already had twins, and Shannon decided she would give Pierce to Brianna and Squid.

"MOMMY!" Pierce cried out, bouncing onto the bed.

Smiling, Brianna asked, "What Pierce?"

"I'm hungry!" Pierce bubbled, happily. Brianna smiled and got out of bed behind Pierce, who raced to the kitchen. Brianna smiled at her youngest son. She looked at her other two children, Raja and Mitchell. Raja was thirteen, had a boyfriend and starting eigth grade. Mitchell was turning seventeen in a few months, and he had been dating Rose since they were freshman.

Mitchell smiled, his green eyes flashing happily. "Mom?" he asked.

"Yes?" Brianna said as she prepared ceral for Pierce's breakfast.

Mitchell smiled innocently. "Can I use your car today?"

"No..." Brianna said, handing Pierce his breakfast.

"But Mom!"

"No!"

"Damn," he murmured, to himself.

Raja smiled, "Mom! Mitchell said a bad word!"

"No one likes a snitch, Raj," muttered Mitchell, glaring at his younger sibling. Brianna shook her head as she sighed.

"Both of you need to behave," she said, firmly.

Both Raja and Mitchell glared at eachother and slowly mumbled, "I'm sorry." Then they both turned away, in anger. Pierce stared, confused as to what was going on at the very moment. After an hour, Mictchell darted out the door to walk to Rose's house so they could talk. Raja went off to the movies with her close friends and Pierce was dropped off at his babysitter's house. Brianna finally had the car to herself and drove to Squid's office, parked, and finally went inside. When she came to his office, she saw him working hard on a document and she snuck in and stood behind him.

"Guess who?" she whispered into his ear, after covering his eyes.

"Someone who brought me lunch?" he asked, mockingly.

Brianna laughed, uncovering his eyes and kissing his cheek. "Yes," Brianna said, surprising him, as she placed his lunch out in front of him. Squid looked up at Brianna with a smile spreading across his face. "What?" asked Brianna, confused.

"Nothing," He said, turning back to his food and beginning to eat.

"Alan?"

"Yes?"

"Did you get the mail before you left this morning?" asked Brianna, curiously. Squid nodded and handed Briann the small stack of letters they had received. Brianna leaned against the wall as she went through each letter until she came to the last one... "Oh my God," Brianna said dropping the other letters.

"What? What's wrong?" asked Squid, concerned.

Brianna opened the letter and quickly read through and almost fainted. "A-Alan..."

"What?" he asked, turning in her chair to see her.

"Marcus is dead," she whispered. "Really dead this time... he was shot down by a cop during a drug raid of Terry's house... Mad Dog was stupid and shot the cops and got shot back," mumbled Brianna.

"And what would this hafta do with us?"

Brianna slowly whispered, tears coming out of her eyes. "We hafta go to his funeral... Well... at least Richard and I need to go..."
