As the weeks went I got more letters from Blake and Ricky. I still hadn't gotten a letter from Marc yet and it is starting to worry me even more. I opened the letter from Blake and it said" Luna I don't want to worry you too much but we can't get marc to say anything to any of us all he does is look at pictures of you and him. Lately he has been having night mares and I don't know how to help him and I have no clue. I told him that he should write you and I know he promised to write you. He writes everyday but he doesn't send them I think he is waiting for a good time to send them we will be moving out and all and I am sorry I can't really do anything to help him sis I don't know what do to please tell me "

I sat down and wrote him back. "Blake all you need to do is, tell him that I love him and remind him of his promise." Then I put it in an envelope and put it in the mail box to be sent.

My phone went off it was Blake." Hey what's up?" I said surprised

"Luna you're sitting down, right?" he said sadly

"Yeah Blake what is wrong is everything okay"

"Luna there was an accident umm our convoy was attacked and one of the jeeps caught on fire. Marc was driving one of the jeeps and he got stuck his seatbelt wouldn't work and I tried to bust the glass but I wasn't strong enough and I smelt gas I tried to get him out Luna I really did. He told me to take care of you. The last thing he said was I love you Luna I am sorry I didn't make it back for you."

"Blake. You're not telling me the truth please tell me you're lying to me!"

"No Luna I am telling you the truth I wouldn't pull this at all to you not after all you have been through"

"How is everyone else are they okay?" I said starting to pace and trying not to cry

"Sis we are all fine Ricky is okay he is upset he tried to help me get him out but the jeep blew up."

"Can I talk to Ricky or do you have to go?"

"I'll tell Ricky to call you on his phone okay sis"

"I love you Blake"

"Love you too sis"

When I hung up the phone with Blake I started crying I can't believe it really came true I thought I could prevent it.

My phone went off again

"Hello Lulu" Ricky said tiring to hide his tears

"Hi bro how are you?"

"I am okay"

"Don't lie to me bro Blake told me you did your best to save him"

"No I didn't if I did he would be here not me"

"Ricky stop it please"

"Sis I didn't keep my promise"

"Ricky yes you did you kept him safe as long as you could" I said with tears in my eyes

"Lulu please don't cry please don't I couldn't handle it if you did"

"Don't worry Bro I will cry when I get off the phone"

"Lulu don't hate me"

"Ricky I could never hate you"

"Luna I love you but I am going to take a shower and just lay down"

"I love you too bro call me later promise me"

"I will I promise things will be okay we will be home soon"

"Okay night bro"

"Zoe should be coming over any minute now Blake just got off the phone with her"

"Okay" I said quietly I feel the tears starting to fall down my face I feel something in my breaking.

"Bye"

"Bye" I said through the tears.

I fell on the floor crying I heard a know on the door "Luna open up"

I got up and opened the door. I fell into her arms and cried

"Shh Luna"

"I am sorry"

"Luna" I heard Cole

"Come here"

I almost forgot about him being there

I sat next to him and he let me lie on top of him and just cry Zoë sat on the bed next us and just tried to help but all I want right now it just for marc to be alive. I heard the thunder start to rumble and shake the sky the rain started to fall down in sheets and just let go. It is like the weather is feeling like I am I can't believe that I couldn't stop him from going.

I heard the phone go off I didn't get it Zoe did "Luna the phone is for you it is Blake"

She said handing me the phone "Hey Blake"

"Hey Zoe texted that you were crying I know it is hard to believe that he is gone but I don't think he would want you to be like this"

"I know but it is hard okay do you know how many times he saved my life Blake"

"No I don't"

"Well he stopped me from cutting and almost going off the deep end!"

"Sis just chill out"

"Blake you didn't lose the love of your life! You still have Zoe I am alone now"

"No you're not alone"

"Yeah I am."

"Have you told your dad yet and does his mom know"

"No not yet I am just going to let it settle with me first then tell them that way I am not a crying mess"

"Okay just take care and there is something up with Ricky he is just laying on his bunk just listing to his music he only does that when he feels he did something wrong"

"Blake he thinks it is his fault that Marc is gone"

"Oh do you want me to talk to him"

"No I will he is going to call me in a little bit tell him that I want to talk to him okay"

"Yeah I will"

"Thanks Blake"

"Talk to you later I am really hungry so I am going to get something to eat"

"Bye"

"Luna?" Cole asked

"Yeah"

"Are you any better?"

"Yeah a little bit"

"Can you get off of me please?"

"Oh yeah I am sorry"

"It is cool if I wasn't hurt I would probably enjoy it."

"I am going to go take a shower" I said grabbing my pjs and a towel. I went to the bathroom and I turned on the hot water and let the steam hit my back. I could still hear them talking.

"Zoe" Cole said

"Yeah"

"Why don't you go and get some rest I will keep an eye on Luna"
"How you are hurt?"

"She will take care of me that will keep her busy"

"Okay call me if you need anything"

"Yeah I will" then I heard the door open and shut

The water went cold I am so tired I got out and dried off and got dressed in my pjs. I walked out into the room still drying my hair.

"Where did Z go?"

"I told her she could go and that I would keep an eye on you"

"Okay how are you feeling?"

"I am feeling fine" he said sitting up and patting the seat next to him.

"Come sit next to me please"

"Okay" I said sitting next to him he put an arm around me and I snuggled into him

"Cole where did you go"

"I went to see an old friend"

"Why didn't you talk to me or text me back whenever I texted you?"

"I couldn't keep contact with you Luna"
"why not?"
"It wasn't safe"

"So I would have gotten you hurt?"

"Yes and very badly too"

"I am kind of glad then"

"I know you were worried sick about me"

"Damn straight I was I didn't know if you were alive"

"I know Luna I am sorry but I am here now right"

"Yeah and please don't leave me again"

"I promise okay I will not leave you."

"Good" I said snuggling in deeper into him

I yawned and stretched

"Are you tired?"

"Yep I am"

"Why don't you take a nap I will wake you up when it is dinner time"

"Okay" said closing my eyes.
