Chapter 13

They all waited in the lobby of the hospital, waiting to hear news about Sheri. She had been rushed into surgery the second the ambulance got there.

"Excuse me are you the friends and family of Sheri Cain?" a tall elder doctor asked. They all nodded. "Well you'll be happy to know that she'll be fine. The surgery went great and we got both bullets out. I'm afraid, though, she can't move her arms very much right now. I suspect that she'll have the full use of both arms in a month or two."

"But doctor, is she still going to able to finish this tour?" Jaime asked.

"I'm afraid that it would be better if you would wait till she is able to use her arms to full extent."

"Okay. Thank you doctor." He nodded and walked away. "Guys we'll have to get a hold of everyone and tell them that the tour is post-poned until Sheri is better," Jaime said as they all sat down.

Just as everyone sat down, Kevin's cell phone rang. "Hello. Yes this is he. He was. Okay. Thank you."

"Who was that Kev?" AJ asked.

"The police chief. He called to tell me that Kyle is dead. He died of complications of the gun shot wound."

"So it's really over?" Lisa asked.

"Yes, it really is."

"Um Kev, since we know Sheri is going to live would you mind if I left for awhile? I have something I have to do," she said.

"Lisa, I really don't know if it's a good idea for you to be alone," Kevin replied.

"Don't worry. I'll be back in an hour. I promise. Love you," and with that she got up and left.

She got in her car and drove to the cemetary that was about 10 minutes away.

"Jacob, I know you know what happened tonight, but I thought I should come and tell myself. Oh god. I'm so sorry. Once again someone got hurt and killed because of me," she said as she knelt beside his grave. "I came here also to thank you. I know you are the reason why Karla and Sheri found your ring. If it wasn't for that I don't think I would be here right now. Jacob, I miss you so much. Why did you have to fight with your brother that night? You knew he was alot bigger than you. But you still did. Why?" she said as she broke down in tears.

"Angel, don't cry," a familar voice said.

"Jacob," she whispered as she turned around to see if it was him.

"Yes, Angel. Its me. I came to tell you that you need to stop blaming yourself for my death. It wasn't your fault. It was just my time. I knew how hard it was for you and I wished I could of helped you through it. But I couldn't. I watch over you everyday and wish we could be together. But you still have a full life ahead of you with Kevin. You know he really loves you and I'm so happy that you found him. But until you stop thinking that you are to blame for everything bad that happens you and Kevin won't be happy together."

"Jacob, I still love you, though. I love Kevin too but I still love you. Ohgod, you don't know how I've missed you."

"We'll be together someday. I promise, but now you belong with Kevin. My time is almost up now Angel, but remember I'm always watching over you and go to our special spot. There is something there, I want you to have. It's underneath my rock.I put it there incase I ever had to leave you, but I always promised I would make sure you got it. I love you Angel and I will always be with you." Then he was gone.

"Good-bye Jacob," she whispered.
