A/N – This starts off a bit angsty but stick with me, true love always wins!

Please review and let me know what you think, I will love you for it x


It had been almost two years. How have I made it through this life without him for two stinking years? Nothing seemed as bright or as real since he left my side.

As I sit in the sun on the freshly mowed grass and stare at the headstone before me, my heart aches. Every time I come here, I forget about the moments before and think of nothing but the huge hole he has left behind in my heart.

A thousand thoughts spin around my head. Why did you do it? Why couldn't I come with you? If I kill my self now would I join you or are you gone forever?


I looked at her sitting there on the grass, she was here whenever I came to put fresh roses on my

dear Milahs grave.

She looked so sad, it made me wonder who she had lost.

All she did was stare at the headstone with tears rolling slowly down here face.

This was place full of sadness and sorrow. She was no different to any of us others who visited this field of the dead.

It seems like a cruel twist that people buried the dead in one place so everyone can see and feel everyone else's heartbreak as well as their own.

If it was up to me, Milah would have had a burial at sea. She loved the ocean and the ocean loved her. Alas, she was another mans wife and he had the power to decide where she rested.

At least the bastard had put her somewhere with a view of the sea below. It was a nice wee spot truth be told, atop a grassy cliff jutting out to the sky and sea.

If there was only Milahs remains here, I would build a house and live here for the rest of my days.

No one had touched my heart like Milah, sure there had been women since, but none that mattered.

I placed a kiss on the stone and whispered goodbye.


"Emma"

I turned around at the sound of my name and saw my friend Belle, with a sympathetic expression on her face

" It's late and, well I thought you would be hungry" she said as she offered me her arm. "Lets get some burgers from the diner and maybe catch a movie?"

She was right, I must have dozed off. The sky was dark and I doubt there would be any movies on at this time, we lived in a small town.

"Yes to burgers, No to movie. " I said with what I hoped was a friendly smile as I awkwardly got to my feet. My joints were stiff. At least it was a warm night.

I loved Belle, she was the only person who didn't judge and accepted me with all my quirks – like spending 90% of my time at a cemetery.
