Love, Winter (an AJR Fanfiction story)

54. Winter

~•Three Months Later•~

   Aunt Mackenzie had her baby. His name is Elijah. He looks a lot like Adam, but has Mackenzie's eyes. Sammy loves him.

   Everyone's getting along now. I know we're not perfect, but we're still trying. We've been visiting Alexis' house more often. I think I'm starting to have feelings for her...

   Today we got to visit Mom's grave again. I might wanna do it more often with dad. That way, I'll have a closer bond with her. To make up for what I lost. I remember how dad said something about writing letters to her, so I'd thought I'd give it a try. It's decent, but I wrote:

   Mom,

   I miss you, even though we didn't really know each other very well. But we can change that. I can still talk with dad to know more stuff about you. I wish you could ask me stuff, too. I want to hear your voice. Maybe dad has some sort of video.

   You became an aunt (again) about eight weeks ago. I think you'd like him.

   I love you. Dad loves you. Everyone does. Even your mean parents and sister (in some twisted way).

   This whole situation was crazy. And it came by fast, too. But if it taught me one thing, it would be that we are a team.

   We are all in this together. Even you.

Love,       
-Winter   

   We are a team. Team Metzger.
