Chapter 29:

Spencer's POV:

Since the death of our twins, Lily-Rose and Tommy-Joe, everyone has become deeply upset. The girls are upset, my parents, friends, everyone that knew about them is distraught. Today is the last day will see them and the last goodbye.

Toby: You ready?

Spencer: Yeah.

The twins are carried in by the girls and we walk with our two living children. They sit down and we sit with them. The service has started and we are now at the speeches. Me and Toby stand up I front of everyone, who are shedding a few tears.

Spencer: I'm not sure if my husband has anything to say, but I did. I don't anymore, because I couldn't think of anything. I just want to say that Lily-Rose and Tommy-Joe were hugely loved even though they were alive for just 19 short hours. I'm always gonna feel sorrow and ache as I take every day as it comes. R.I.P my baby angles.

I sort of hug Toby and her delivers his speech. After we have done, the girls do one, all four of them together.

Aria: This is our own little memorial for little Lily-Rose and Tommy-Joe.

Allison: We know full where there's just time.

Hanna: So is it wrong to dance this line?

Emily: If your heart was full of love?

Aria: Could you give it up?

Allison/Hanna: Cause what about, what about angles?

Emily/Aria: They will come, they will go, make us special.

Hanna/Emily/Allison/Aria: Don't give me up. Don't give me up.

Allison: How unfair, it's just our luck.

Hanna: Found something real that's out of touch.

Emily: But if you searched the whole wide world.

Aria: Would you dare to let it go?

Toby's POV:

Aria/Hanna: Cause what about, what about angles?

Emily/Allison: They will come, they will go, make us special.

Hanna/Aria/Allison/Emily: Don't give me up. Don't give me up.

Aria/Allison: Cause what about, what about angles?

Emily/Hanna: They will come, they will go, make us special.

Aria/Emily/Allison/Hanna: It's not about, not about angles, angles.

As the girls end their tribute to our twins, the room is filled with applause. They sit down and soon later, the service end. We stand by the graves as Lily-Rose and Tommy-Joe are put into the ground. Everyone leaves, but Spencer just stands there, in the pouring rain. Aria took the kids until later.

Toby: Come on, let's go.

Spencer: I just can't believe that they're gone.

Toby: I know.

I hug Spencer into my chest as she cries. Then we walk back to our car. We quickly get the kids in and drive down to our house. We are having a small gathering.

Toby: Excuse me, I'd like to make a toast.

Everyone stops their conversations and turns to me.

Toby: Today is a sad day, I'm sure we are all aware. But let us celebrate the sort lives of Lily-Rose and Tommy-Joe.

Everyone: To Lily-Rose and Tommy-Joe.

It's now about 11:00 at night. We are laying in bed after a long and full of sorrow day.

Spencer: You ok?

Toby: Yes, but I should be asking you the same question.

Spencer: I'm fine.

Toby: Your coping a lot better than I thought.

Spencer's POV:

I wake up the next day. Toby is still sleeping. I miss my babies so much. I get out of bed and go over to the draw where we were gonna keep all their clothes. The little mittens that the hospital put on them are in my hands and pressed against my chest. I shut my eyes tight as I let tears escape my eyes, making mascara smudge because I didn't take it off from yesterday.

Spencer: I miss you so much!

I put them back and as I close the draw, Toby wakes up. I crawl back over to him and lay in his arms.

Toby: It's ok. Things will get better.

Spencer: I hope so.

Toby: I love you.

Spencer: We love you to.

Toby: What do you want to do today?

Spencer: Well, lest take the kids out. We can't just sit and hide away.

Toby: Are you sure? Where would we take them?

Spencer: How about to the soft play area at the mall?

Toby: Ok.

We get the kids ready after having showers and then drive to the mall. The drive to the mall is silent, but we all know why. When we get there, we park and enter. We pay for the kids to go and play whilst me and Toby sit in the café that is above.

Toby: Do you want something to eat?

Spencer: Can you get me a muffin please?

Toby: Sure.

Toby gets up. Go and get us a snack and I sneak out of the café. I've been torn apart and I don't know how to deal with the loss. The only thing I feel that is right to do is to go over to the balcony. I climb up onto the edge and people stop and stare. Toby must have realise I was gone because right now, he is standing behind me trying to talk me down.

Toby: Don't do this, please.

Toby's POV:

Me and many strangers watch in horror as my wife is potentially about to jump to her death.

Spencer: Give me one good reason why I shouldn't?!

Toby: The kids.

Spencer: Which ones? The dead ones or the living ones?

Toby: Both! Do you really want Isabella and Mason to see you die?

Mason: MOM!

As Mason comes running towards us. Spencer turns her head, loosing her balance and falling. She falls over the balcony but land on the top of an elevator that is going down. We look over and see that she's unconscious.

Stranger: Did she jump? Is she dead?

Toby: She lost her balance.

Mason: MOM! MOM WAKE UP!

Toby: I'm coming baby!

I quickly Rush Mason back to the soft play. I explain to the staff what has just happened and they agree to keep our children for longer than we payed for. After that, I run down the escalators as fast as I can and as careful as I can. I manage to get the the ground floor just as the elevator is on is second trip after the fall down. When it stops, I grab something to stand on and reach up to Spencer. I make sure the people in the left know what I'm trying to tell them. I'm telling them to keep the lift on the 4th floor for as long as possible so we wan get her off. Now we are at the 4th floor. Some mall secret I have got a spinal board for Spencer. By working together, we manage to get her strapped on and back over the balcony. The spinal board is now on the floor and I'm kneeling next to her.

Toby: Spencer wake up!

I can tell that she's hit her head.

Toby: Spencer please wake up. I'm sorry. I love you so much.

Spencer is still unconscious. At one point, she stops breathing. I do CPR and mouth to mouth. Once she is breathing again, she regains consciousness and starts to cry.

Toby: It's ok. An ambulance is on its way.

Spencer's POV:

It's been 6 weeks since the death of the twins and my near-death accident. I came out with a bruised skull and a fractured wrist. Right now, me, my husband and our two living children are visiting the graves of Lily and Tommy.

Isabella: I miss you so much.

Spencer: Come here sweetie.

I crouch down to my daughters level and hug her as she weeps.

Toby puts down the flowers we brought and a little teddy that they would have had.

Toby: Do you want to say anything Mason?

Mason: No.

Spencer: Ok. Let's go.

I carry my daughter to the car. They strap their belts and we head to the park. We get there and the kids run off and play with some of their friends from school.

Toby: I'm just gonna go get a drink, you want one?

Spencer: I'm good.

Toby: Ok.

I give my husband a quick peck and then he walks off. Whilst I'm waiting, Aria comes and sits with me.

Spencer: Oh hey, I didn't even realise you were here.

Aria: Oh, our car is about 3 spaces from yours?

Spencer: Didn't see it. Anyway how are you?

Aria: Im good. How you coping?

Spencer: Ok, we put some flowers down at their graves before we came here. Someone put some there, and it wasn't us.

Aria: Oh yeah, about that, it might have been me and Hanna.

Spencer: Oh Thank you.

I hug one of my closest and best friends.
