I wake up in Jeff's arms very relaxed considering what happened yesterday. I should be antsy, scared yet I am relaxed. Probably due to my lover. With every tough he conforts me. Yet now with these thoughts I am scared and antsy. I want answers to questions that can't be answered. I look into Jeff's crystal blue eyes praying he can help me.

"Jeff, when'd this fear come?" I ask. He looks at me confused.

"Of what baby?" He replies pulling me close to him. I look at him straight in the eyes not allowing my eyes to wander.

"Death with Martin." He pulls me even closer trying to confort me as these thoughts turn me cold inside.

"When he broke down but don't worry, it'll be ok." I hold back my tears as I think of something else to ask.

"Who can we blame?" He looks away and then back at me brushing the hair out of my face.

"Sherry." I relax. He's right; she is to blame. She broke Martin's heart; she tore him down.

I walk into Martin's motorcoach looking for him. He's running late and I don't like that. He looks over at me watching me walk through the motorcoach.

"You got to help me," he pleads. I walk over to him hoping maybe I have the cure.

"Tell me Martin," I beg not even sure if I want to know. He looks into my blue eyes and I instantly see the hurt in his brown eyes.

"I can't do this. I'm sick in love that not a soul could cure." I try to wrap my arms around him yet he backs away. "No, not now."

"Why not? You told you would allow me to help you. Now le me before it ends." He has to allow me before the end. It can't end now; I've got to help him. He's got to make it through.

This is trouble and too bad I didn't tell Jeff I'd be here. Why was I so stupid?

"Look out!" Martin yells. I jump back as someone dressed in black stands there.They hold a knife in their hand. Who could it be? He or she walk over to Martin and stabs him in the stomach. I try to grab the mask off his/her head yet instead get stabbed in the back! Fuck that kills.

"Help!" scream. The pain is tremendous as I lay there. I hear people run in and instantly know one of them.

"Dale..." Jeff says. I look up at him.

"Jeff, you got to help me." He looks around. He points to Kevin as uncauncious takes over me.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

I slowly open my eyes sqeezing a hand.

"Come on Dale." I hear the person beg. It's Jeff! I let myself fully wake up. I look around the room. Oh, so they put me in a room with tan walls. Why tan and not another color? "Hey babes." I instantly turn my head in Jeff's direction. There he sits full of worry.

"Hi," I whisper. Oh man my back hurts.

"How r u?" Just what I needed!

"Sore." That's when I remember what happened. "Jeff, is Martin ok?" He looks away. No, this can't be true.

"I'm sorry but he didn't make it." I begin to cry as he pulls me close. Why Martin?
