Some nights I stay up cashing in my bad luck Some nights I call it a draw Some nights I wish that my lips could build a castle Some nights I wish they'd just fall off

Rang out as Some Nights by Fun started playing in my car. Hayden looked out the window towards the fields of dirt with some wheat and grass. The clouds rolled by slowly, birds chirping, yup spring is finely here. It was a week since my grandpa was barred. I don't know why but I didn't cry, but when they played taps I lost it. After the bugle was put down, 3 guys pointed guns towards the sky, 7 times, the shots rang out. After wards they put their guns to their feet as instructed, than kicked up into the paws, and over their shoulder. One by one they marched away from the casket, perfect order, just like my grandpa would have wanted. They folded the flag, each crease made perfect, showed respect for our flag. After the final fold, he walked slowly to my grandma, got down on a knee, and handed her the flag. Once she got it she nodded and said thank you. The man got up, gave her salute and turned around and marched to the casket, saluted and walked out the doors. After everyone laid a flower on the casket, I walked outside and picket up a bullet that they shot off. I held it tightly to my chest and let a tear fall down to the ground. My uncle, David, walked up patted me on the back and bent down and picked up the rest of the bullets. After they barred the casket, we all left for our homes, family leaving to go back to where they came from. Grandma got drove back home by my uncle Dan. I went with them to get picked up by Hayden, After that we went to bed. Now it's a week past, the bullet around my neck. Still wearing black, Hayden dozing off and us driving back to college.

"You ok Hayden?" I asked looking over at him quickly before looking back at the road.

"Yeah, I'm just getting bewitched by the beauty of the fields." He chuckled and patted my paw. He smiled which made me smile back.

"You know, one thing that im not looking forward to, is getting all the, I'm sorry for you loss, from everyone." I said and chuckled.

"We if you don't want people to say that, or if they don't leave you alone, remember I'm here" Hayden said and flexed the hard earned muscle he has gained over the years.

"Heh, I know hon, I know." I chuckled and patted his strong thigh. "Also you know we have that band trip to New York this week right?"

"Yeah, how could I forget?" he laughed. "Can't fricking wait!" he barked and his tail started wagging quickly.

"Heh, me either pup." I chuckled and we pulled into the parking lot.

As we got out of the car, Aaron ran up and tackled me.

"OPH, gah AARON!" I barked loudly.

All he was doing was hugging me tightly, his tail going faster than the speed of light. Than it dawned on me... where theirs one theirs always, before I could finish my thought there was a loud thud. "Other" I said. And indeed when I looked up, there was Hayden pinned down and being hugged by sheth. After Sheth and Aaron both got their hugs, they let us go.

"Sorry for the surprise attack!" Aaron barked.

"Yeah right, it was all his idea." Seth said chuckling.

"I'm sure it was both your ideas." Hayden said trying to get up from the ground. I put my paw out and he garbed it. I quickly pulled him up to his paws and we all started laughing.

"Well, shall we get packing?" Seth asked our little group.

"FUCK YEAH!" Hayden yelled and ran inside. The others and I ran close behind laughing.
