Author's Note: It's been awhile . . . To be honest, I needed a break from this fic, but now I am back with more energy than ever! Please enjoy!

Eliot always felt like he was intruding whenever he was around Thomas and Melissa. The two had such a strong bond of love that Eliot had never experienced. Even standing a few feet away, Eliot could feel their sadness at parting. Melissa was crying and Thomas was trying to reassure her that everything would be okay.

"I've got Eliot with me," Thomas informed her with a small smile. "He'll make sure I'm safe."

But on that day, everything changed.

By the end of that day, Thomas was dead and Melissa was devastated.

And Eliot was all alone again.

Author's Note: Tomorrow, we'll find out how Thomas died. Please request/review!
