Chapter 5!!
I woke the following morning to find Gray asleep beside me, not on my bed but his head was on the edge.I grinned and thought of what he told me last night. "Dont worry. I wont let them eat you." I thought looking at him. I didnt move much so that I'd let him sleep. But he woke up on his own.
"Morning." I said smiling.
"Morning." He said grinning. He yawned and sat on the bed. "Were do you want to go today?" He asked. I looked at him.
"The church." I said. I pointed over to my bag. "There is a black dress and shoes in there. Can you get them for me?"
"Okay but why?" He asked getting me the dress and shoes.
"Grandpa's funeral is today." I said. He looked at me sadly.
"oh. Okay. Want me to leave so you can change?" He asked.
"Well Duh." I said and he left. I put on my outfit and brushed my hair.I tied a black ribbon in my hair. Gray came back in a black tux about an hour after he left. He picked me up and because I was in a dress he carried me like a babie.
We got there and most of the town was there. We sat in the frount. He gently set me down on the bench and he sat beside me. Carter took the podeum after everyone was seated. He said the usuall stuff Preists say at funerals.
"Ms. Abukura was suppost to tell us about her grandfather, but she hurt her ankle and can't stand up." He said.
Gray looked down at me. "Want me to speak for you?" He asked. I nodded. I handed him a folded up peice of paper that I had written on before.
He walked up to the podeum and spoke.
"Jill Abukura wanted me to say this all for her." He began.
" I always loved my grandpa, He would play with me when no one else would. He taught me how to ride a horse when I was 5 and he taught me everything about farming that I know now. When my mom and dad faught, his farm would be my home away from home. I'll always love my grandpa more than anything. I had hoped he'd be with me longer, but I know that God knew it was his time." Gray finished the speach and sat back down beside me. I cried on his sleeve. He wrapped his arm around me and I cried on him. The funeral continued.
When it was all over Gray Carried me home like a babie again. When we got back to the house he set me on my bed and sat beside me.
"Are you okay?" He asked and I nodded. But I cried on him. He stroked my hair and cooed me. He ran his fingers threw my hair cooing me and comferting me. Somehow I ended up sitting on his lap and he was still comferting me. He sat with me all night long. From when we got home from when we both woke up.
Note: Okay. This chapt was short. I know.
