Okay guys, I think I'm ready for a full length story! Woot!
Thank you for reading my work. 3
The characters are not mine, but the story line IS!
~Chapter One: Forever~
I stood in the garden, watching as familiar faces mourn under a gray sky. Sometimes bad things happen, it's expected. But this…this I never could have dreamt of. The twisted figures that lived deep in my imagination could have never created my scenario.
The long grass swayed in a light breeze, it was peaceful now. Everything was over.
I felt someone's gaze touching my face, looking up I saw Rosalie. Her glare pierced through my heart, and brought me back to silent tears. I dropped my head.
My brother's coffin laid a few feet from my view, and my best friend can't even stand to look at me.
My brother, Emmett, had been my hero, the one person who was always there. We were only two years apart, so we had always been really close.
I looked reluctantly at my arms, bruises covered most of my pale skin. This was my fault. Everything could have been avoided. Emmet could be standing with me and we both would be looking at someone else's grave. We would stand in victory, watching as they buried the man who deserved to die.
I picked my head back up to look at Rose; her blonde hair fell below her shoulders covering the pained brown eyes that I knew were underneath. Emmett and her were going to get married; I could feel it. They were both beautiful; Emmett had black hair and glistening blue eyes, he was tall and well built. Rose, in a word is stunning. They would walk in the hallway hand in hand, leaving girls behind them in the hallway with a jealous spark in their glare.
My situation is so unique, but so common; a case of abuse that twisted into a fatal confrontation. The victim walks away, her protector is killed, and the killer is protected.
The world loses an angel, and I lose my world.
Rose an only child; her father is dead and her mother left home. My parents are long gone, and my brother just departed. Both her and I are left with nothing.
The priest finished his speech and people begin to walk slowly to their cars, Rose stood absolutely still as they lowered the coffin into the ground, she stared into the ditch.
She looked up to find me staring at her, "What?" she hissed.
That pissed me off.
I walked up to her, "Don't act like you're the only one who lost someone."
She turned on her heel and walked away, she looked back once and it was at the coffin.
I kissed the rose that was given to me.
"I'm so sorry, Emmett," I whispered. I dropped the rose into the ditch and watched it fall until it hit the wood with a light thump.
Thunder rumbled through the clouds as the rain started to drizzle down. I walked back to the car, and by the time I shut the door the rain started to pour. Instead of put the keys in the ignition, I sat with my face on the steering wheel.
There was a napkin on the floor, I picked it up and Emmett's handwriting was scribbled on it.
Alice!
Please, please, please, please pick up some flour for me.
You're the best sister ever!
~Emmett
He drew a whale under the note.
He was gone, forever…
I burst into tears.
I screamed into my hands, "this is all my fault!"
A really short chapter but the next one will be longer :)
Thank you!
