Author's Note: Thank you so much for reviewing. I really want to thank Angelstearz, Siamese, Cathie, and Sweet Kisses. Once again, I had to remove this and then repost it because it wasn't updating right. Sorry it's taking so long. I'm really busy. I hope to finish this soon. Thanks again. (This will be a SJR story if you're wondering.)
Will you Take Care of Me?
I watch them put Sam's casket in the ground. Chloe tightens her arms around my neck. Besides me is Angel. We've seemed to get past our differences, get past our anger, and become friends. Bailey, Grace, George, and Marcus are here. We all cry in our own way.
It's all over now; I just want to get out of here. I can tell Angel and Chloe want the same thing. "How about we go home?" Home. Home as in Sam's home. It's become my new home. I've been staying there now. Angel nods; glad to get away, away from all this. I didn't even really want to come. Seeing her buried means she really did die. My hope of her somehow coming back was buried with her.
I carry Chloe over with me to go talk to Bailey. "We're going to leave. I'll see you guys later." I turn around and start to walk away.
"John," I turn around again, and there stands Grace. "You need to know that it will get better."
"How can you be so sure?"
She hugs Chloe and me. "It won't get better over night. You won't just wake up and not feel the pain. Time will help you heal. We will help you heal. Trust me. Take good care of Chloe. I'm so sorry about your mommy, sweetie." Grace gives Chloe a kiss on the cheek. She puts her hand on my shoulder and gives me a small smile. "Trust me, John." That's all she said before she walked away.
I go get Angel, and we all get in the car and drive away.

She stood watching them. "Did it work?"
"Yes, everything is set up"
"Good. Then I better leave. Goodbye." The woman watched him walk away. She stared one more time at the three people, and then she turned around and walked away.
