Chapter 1
Quils POV
It has been 15 years and 11 months since Claire had left. My Claire Bear gone. It feels as though it was just yesterday and the pain never gets better, it only gets worse. She will be 18 next week if she's alive. I hope she is because honestly, I can't imagine a world without her in it.
*Flashback*
Claire and I were at First Beach, she was 2 years old then. Claire was staying at Emily's house because her mother was at work. Emily had told me that Claire's father had left just after Claire was born. How could he leave Claire?
"Quil?" A tiny voice said beside me distracting me from my thoughts.
"Yeah Claire Bear"?
"I love you" she said. Those three words made my day!
"I love you too" You don't know how much.
I heard Sam howl meaning I had patrol. I heard the song 'Gummy Bear' coming from my phone. I absolutely hate that song but that's what happens when you make and lose a bet with my good friend Embry Call. I looked at the screen and saw it was Claire's mom Sheila. "Bring Claire to the carpark" was all she said so I put Claire on my shoulders and ran at a slow pace so Claire wouldn't fall off. She laughed and it was so adorable,I couldn't keep the goofy smile from spreading across my face. When we got to the car park I saw Sheila straight away.
" Momma" My Claire shouted. I put her down and she ran into Sheila's arms.
"See you later Quil" Sheila says
"Bye Quil" Claire said. We both hated saying goodbye to each other.
"Bye Claire Bear" and then I ran as fast as I could into the forest and quickly stripped down and phased.
"Nice of you to finally join us Quil" Paul said sarcastically. Ooh someone must have got out of the wrong side of the bed again.
I felt someone phase then. It was Embry.
"I seriously can't wait for you to imprint Paul. Then maybe you will understand what it's like to leave them". Embry had imprinted on Claire bears twin Cassie.
They always pretended to be each other to stop getting into trouble and they'd close their eyes cause Claire's are blue and Cassie's are brown but Sam would make us tell their mother Sheila which twin was which. Cassie was a troublemaker just like Embry and Claire, my sweet Claire Bear was so innocent and never got into trouble.
"I don't want to be tied down I'd rather be able to go aorund fucking other girls" Paul screemed and we got a mental image of someone called Amelia. We continued the patrol winding Paul up and then we went home and Ifell into a deep sleep.
'Oh I'm a Gummy Bear yes Yeah, I'm a Gummy Bear,
Oh, I'm a Yummy, tummy, Funny, Lucky Gummy Bear.
I'm a Jelly bear, Cuz I'm a Gummy bear,
Oh I'm a movin', groovin', Jammin', Singin' Gummy Bear.'
I groaned I looked at my phone and saw it was Sheila.
"Quil?. It's Claire she's missing" She said sobbing. I shot right out of bed. " WHAT!" I shouted "I'll be right there" I said while throwing my clothes on. I hung up . No no no this can't be happening. I got to Sheila's and the police were their along with Sam and Emily. Sheila and Emily were crying and Sam was trying to comfort his wife. They all stopped to look at me and Sam gave me a pitying look and then i started to hear these weird sobbing noises and it took me a while to figure out they were coming from me.
*End Flashback*
I miss her so much I can't eat or sleep and as Cassie said last week I look a mess. She is currently living with her grandma as her mother died last year after she overdosed.
A/N: Well what do you think? this is my first ever fanfic I hope I did ok. The next chapter will be in Claire's POV 1 week before her 18th birthday.
