One.

The couple drives towards their next destination. The Beach. With all the windows down and music blasting loud, Adalyn's hair moves with the wind and Jake laughs as she sings along with the song.

Two.

The car is spotted and as the couple ride past...the woman in black pulls out of her parking spot in a nearby diner. The woman follows them down the road and gets too close to their car.

Three.

Jake watches the car behind them as it gets too close. Adalyn has no idea what's going on and Jake can't see who's in the car. As Jake gets distracted the car starts to swerve a little, causing Adalyn to get pulled out of her joyful mood. "Jake?"

Four.

Jake steadies the car. "Adalyn. Don't freak out. Okay?" Jake looks in the rearview mirror then back at the road ahead. Adalyn looks back to see the same car. "Who is that Jake?' she says sounding scared.

"Eliza"

Five.

Jake speeds up a little, attempting to get away "Jake!" As he speeds down the highway, Eliza follows. Until she stops. Jake looks in the mirror and smiles.

Six.

"She's gone, babe." Jake doesn't watch the speedometer....nor does he realize he's slowly speeding up to his death. Adalyn looks out the front window.

"Jake!"

Seven.

Eight.

Nine...

Eliza looks on as the car erupts in flames. Ten

Ten

All it took was ten seconds before nine was dialed. It took eight minutes to get there and seven months to catch her. Six years of an amazing relationship wasted, because of five, failed months. Four parents lost their children that day, as well as Eliza's three siblings and Jake's two brothers..... Losing their #1 heroes.
