Tanner smiled at the book almost grinning in excitement. He looked over at Rock but she was gazing at the floor with empty eyes and a frozen smile. Tanner jumped up grabbing her arms and shaking her.

"Look at me! Rock look at me! Stop! Youre scaring me!" he began to cry holding her tightly in his arms. How could he have tortured her for so long? Would he have if he had known her life would be so short? All he could think of was making it up to her. "dont worry Rock, I won't let anything happen to Cliffside or the kids, they will remember you for all you have done." he closed her eyes, covered her with the blanket and cleaned her face adding powders to make her look alive and sleeping.
