Lost It All [1/5 Tony Perry series]

• Saying, I do •

"Happy birthday Tony!" Melanie yelled as she kissed my lips and hugged me. "Thanks babe." I whispered.

She handed me a wrapped box and smiled. "Babe I said no gifts!" I groaned. She giggled and shrugged.

"Sorry. I thought you'd like." She replied. I kissed her lips and smiled.

I opened the box and an acoustic guitar laid in front of me. I a smile grew across my face as I saw a signature, signed by the one and only Kurt Cobain.

I hugged Melanie really tight and kissed her lips.

"I love you." I whispered. She smiled and blushed.

"I love you, too." Melanie whispered back.

"Tony this ones for you." My mom said as she gave me a little box and an old card.

"He told me to wait for your seventeen birthday." Her voice cracked.

" dearest Tony,

I am deeply sorry, I am not there to celebrate your birthday. When I wrote this, you were to young to understand what I was saying, but I love you from the depth of my heart. I am always watching over you, when you're having  a bad day, always remember I am always watching over you. I hope you have a wonderful life and that you find love.
Sincerely,
Dad.
November 11, 1996 . "

A tear rolled down my cheek as I turned the card and saw the last picture I took with my dad.

I felt Melanie's arms wrap around my torso with tears in her eyes. I found myself crying.

I held the picture close to me and looked at my mom crying as well.

She smiled and wiped away her tear.

"Happy birthday dude!" Cat yelled as she punched my arm. We sat down at the table of the restaurant as Melanie sat beside me.

"Thanks cat." I replied. She smiled and nodded.

"Well I can't believe you guys are finally going out!" Cat squealed. I nodded and looked at Melanie, whom was crying.

"Melanie what's wrong??!" I asked. She looked up and her mouth was bleeding. Her hands raised and they were filled with blood.

And she dropped dead.
