Disclaimer: I´m not making any money off this fanfic and I don´t own any of this, with the exception of the story.
Author´s Note: I felt that this needed to be done, since no one else have made a fanfic of Linda´s funeral.
This is my second fanfic, so please tell me what I can do better. :)
Author´s Note 2: Although I am a big PB fan, who spended 20 minutes to write down one of my fav dialogues, I might not remember the lines perfectly, so bear with me ok?

Linda´s Funeral
He was in a church. At a ceremony. But this was no ordinary church or ceremony. It was Linda´s funeral, and this was the church they were supposed to be wed in. He sighed. He should never had gotten up with the idea of writing a speech. Yet, he was good at it, and now it was done.
-----------------------------
"I´m looking for my brother, is he alright?"
"Uhmm.... And you are, miss?"
"Linda Dominguez. Now where is my brother?"
-----------------------------
Victor came back to reality. That was the first time he ever saw and talked to Linda. A smile appeared on his face, just to disappear the next moment.
He had to begin his speech. He took a paper out of his pocket and read it once again. He didn´t quite know it by heart, but he knew most of it. He took a deep breath and finally started.
"Linda lived among us for far too short time..." His eyes immediately began to tear up, and he had difficult to read. "...but will always be remembered for bringing sunshine, not just into my life, but to everyone´s life."
-----------------------------
"Linda Dominguez, will you marry me?"
"Yes, I will marry you, Victor Del Toro."
-----------------------------
Victor took another deep breath before starting the next sentence. He couldn´t crack now, not in the middle of the speech.
"I can´t believe she´s gone. For just a week ago, she was here, living and free, and now...now..." At this part, he couldn´t see the paper at all, but he refused to dry his eyes. This was a tribute to Linda, and he wouldn´t let anyone, including him, destroy it. "Now I just pray that He looks after her."
-----------------------------
"You seem more nervous about the wedding then I do."
"You're nervous about the wedding?"
-----------------------------
True, he had been nervous about the wedding, or more exactly, if something happened during the wedding. The things he feared the most had happened, Linda had died. This shouldn´t happen, no it couldn´t happen.
He went forward to Linda´s coffin. She was in there, but she would never hold him or kiss him again.
He looked up while one thought was in his head "God, you better take good care of her, until I´m there too." and then, almost whispering he said "God has finally gotten his most beautiful angel back." He then put the red rose he had saved for her, and laid it on her coffin. When he was about to leave, when he softly whispered "Te quiero mi amo. ("I love you my love") My heart will always belong to you." And went back to comfort Rosa, who was falling apart.
"¿Por qué Victor? ¿Por qué?" (Why Victor? Why?)
"I don´t know mom. I really don´t know."
-----------------------------
"Promise me Victor, you will find another."
"I...I can´t."
"Promise me."
"I promise."
-----------------------------
Now he couldn´t stop his tears from falling. He lied to her. In her very last moment, he lied to her.
"Ssh ssh...It will heal...it will heal."
"No it won´t. I will never be able to see and touch her again. I will be haunted by my promise to find another love, when I know I won´t. I lied to her mom, she was dying and I lied to her. I will never be able to look at myself in a mirror without seeing a pathetic lying loser!"
Nothing they´d say would make it different. He had lied to her and for what cause? Seeing her die satisfied? Victor shook his head deep, and tried to forget all this, but it was useless. No matter how hard he tried, he always kept remembering Linda.
-----------------------------
"I never...got the...chance to say.... I do."
-----------------------------
Victor dried his eyes and looked up to the crucifix, and asked one question. "Why did you do this to me? Why?"
