I ran back home to take a shower and get ready for school. I decided to put on a white hoodie, white jeans, and white hiking boots. I quickly grabbed my stuff, grabbed an apple and ran to my car. I threw everything into the passenger seat and closed my door. I turned the car on and someone tapped on the passenger window.
I turned to see who it was and saw Michael. I rowed down the window.
"Hey Michael, need a ride?" I asked him. He nodded and got in.
"Thanks." He said sweetly.
"No problem." I responded. I turned on some music and drove to school.
Once we got to the school we got out and quickly ran inside the school building. Once inside I closed the umbrella and put it in my locker.
"Thanks again." Michael said.
"No problem."
"Everyone take your seats in the bleachers please!" The teachers told everyone. We all sat down and they said today was just a free day and that everyone can do the activities they had out or just talk. They also said we could run track while talking.
Almost all of the kids decided to talk. There was a small group about to race when I asked if we could join.
"Yeah sure... if you can beat my fastest runner here." He said laughing.
"Okay." I replied. "Easy enough."
"Seriously? He's never been beaten." He told me in a surprised tone.
"Yep." I said.
"Fine." He said pouting.
We race and I beat him all of the students watched as I beat him. Everyone kept asking how I beat him.
"Guys, all I did was run." I said.
"Why sent you out of breath?" Someone asked.
I hate it when people notice that.
"Becuase I don't get out of breath that easily." I told them. Everyone stopped asking questions and it was time to go home. I drove Michael home and then I drove myself home. I went to my bedroom and did my homework.
{Incoming Call: Jacob}
{Accept}
"Hello?" I asked.
"Hey, it's Jacob. Something terrible has happened." Jacob said in a pained tone.
"What happened?!" I said trying to stay calm.
"It's Dad... he's... dead." I hear Jacob crying.
"I'll be there in three minutes." I told him and hung up. Once I hung up I didn't even bother telling Mom and Dad where I was going. As I ran I felt my tears flying off and more tears taking their place. Once I reached Jacob I saw him hugging his father.
"How did he die?" I asked him. Being careful not to make him feel worse.
"In his sleep." Jacob said crying harder. Paul came running to Jacob and slowly pried Jacob away and the others took his father away so they could bury him in the woods.
"NO! I CAN'T LET GO YET! I NEED TO SAY GOODBYE!" Jacob said breaking free from Paul's strong arms and running to them. He took his father and ran. I didn't know where he went. But I just hope Jacob will be okay.
I called Grandpa and he started crying. I called Mom and Dad and they all came. Carlisle, Esme... every single one. They all came and helped with the funeral. Alice planned most of it though. She made it all so wonderful and beautiful. We had the funeral and once it was over I was relieved.
Dear Readers,

I tried my best to make this emotional. Thank you all for reading. The next chapter will have something really happy in it. So don't worry. I'm not that mean lol. I'll make the next chapter really happy. Thanks again.
