Shawn's POV

"You sure you don't want me to stay, Shawn?" I shook my head, taking no time to unlock the passenger door and slide out of my dad's car. I didn't want to spend New Year's with my family. It didn't feel right to, knowing I could spend it with _____.

"I'll be fine, Dad. Now, get home before it's too late. You have 10 minutes."

"Shawn-"

"Go," I said.

He pursed his lips, handing me a black felt coat, along with some flowers and a flashlight. He gave me one more look before I urged him to go, in which he did with no further words.

As I watched my dad drive off, I slipped on the coat over my flannel, flashing the image of the route to her in my head. "I'm coming, baby." I whispered, turning on the flashlight with a flick of the switch and hugging the flowers within the crook of my arm, as gently as I could.

Dead leaves crunched underneath my shoes with every step I took, and along came the piercing wind that cut against my skin with it's ever hurting cold. I shivered, using my free hand to tighten the coat around my stomach, beginning to walk a bit faster than before.

My phone lit up with brightness to the touch my finger, showing me the time of 11:54, and I had began to jog for I knew it would be a bit more distance to _____.

It was 11:56 when I got to her. Where I knew she'd be whenever I needed her.

I walked up to her grave (DIDNT SEE THAT ONE COMING DID U), placing the bouquet of flowers on top of her tombstone. Once again, I read it, even though I knew what it said word-by-word, and was able to restate it to whomever wanted to hear. The words were locked inside of my brain, next to the vivid memories of her and I.

"_____ _____

A loving daughter, sister, and girlfriend

(your birthday) - November 17, 2015"

"Hey, baby girl." I greeted her, sitting beside her as I touched the cold brick of her tombstone. "I'm sorry I haven't visited since Christmas. I've been helping Mum with decorations and party arrangements. I wanted to tell you that I go back on tour two weeks after New Year's. Yeah," I chuckled quietly. "I decided to go back...Finish what I started. I know you'd want me to do that.

"Things have been rough lately, I hate to admit. I wish I could be strong for you, but the holidays were always your favorite, princess. Forcing me to bake cookies and decorate them so you can take plenty of pictures. Having me set up a tree in your apartment in the small corner of your living room. The living room where we'd watch tons of Christmas movies until you fell asleep in my arms. Waking up and drinking hot chocolate. I remember how I'd always want coffee, but you forced me to drink hot chocolate instead, because you like to sprinkle marshmallows in to my mug.

"I've been trying to hold it together, _____. I've tried not to cry. I mean, you're in such a great place now. But the memories just keep flooding back in waves.

"Like the times you'd play with my hair while I would strum my guitar. And the time where we had our first date, and I was such an awkward screw-up that I spilled coffee all over your dress. The time we had our first kiss. Since you went to a different school, I wanted to pick you up. And let me say this, _____, the smile on your face as you ran out of the gates was something I can not forget. You were so happy, because you got an A on your English essay - you were always smarter than me. You were so caught up in the moment that you kissed me, and immediately said sorry. But, oh, baby girl, I sure wasn't.

"I want to give up, baby. I really do, but it's you who's stopping me from doing so. Damn it, _____," I grinned, looking beside me. "It's always been you."

Before I could say anymore, fireworks erupted the once quiet night, lighting up the dark, black sky in to an array of neon colors.

"I love you, baby girl." I whispered, kissing the pads of my fingers, and pressing them against her carved name of the tombstone. "Happy New Year's."
