Chapter Three: Missing You

"Let's all be thankful that we're together, alright? No mater what happens now in Chicago we're together." Jasper tried to soothe us. I scoffed, folding my arms more tightly across my chest. I was tired of hearing, "everything is gonna be okay", because I just knew that it wasn't. I was ready for all of us just to move on.

Jasper shot me a warning glance. I shot one back. He was only picking on me because I was the next oldest child. Which wasn't fair, I thought. He didn' t want me to be disappointing Edward cause he was the youngest. Ugh. Get me the hell out of here. Edward was fine. I didn't do anything, but they did. May they burn in hell for all that they did. They caused my family a lot of freaking pain. Because they took away our main family. The people that held us all together. They're dead. They're gone. And it just left four depressed kids sitting in a airport being shoved onto a plain to go to Chicago.

"I'm fine Jasper." Edward let out a shaky breath as Jasper patted his back. Jasper frowned, and sat back on the chair.

I sighed then looked to my side towards Alice. Poor sister. I frowned more looking at how...desolate she looked. Only fourteen years old. Her knees were pressed to her chest, her arms wrapped around them. Her chin rested on them, and looked straight forward with blank eyes. I wrapped my arm around her shoulder and leaned into her ear to whisper something to her,

"This wasn't your fault Ali."

Slowly her grayish eyes went to mine. "The fire," She whispered.

"Wasn't your fault." I repeated.

"Tell that to their graves." Her voice was solemn.

"How about I tell them that you loved them, and that none of this was your fault that it was in accident." I smiled.

She glared at me now, a tight grimace of disgust across her face.

"I killed them."

"Alice." I sighed heavily, and longly.

"How am I doing?" Alice asked as she stirred the soup around in the bowl.

"Perfect." I answered. She knew my appetite with food. I'd eat practically anything. No matter who cooked it.

"I think I might be over heating it." She answered with a frown.

I chuckled. "Then turn the stove down." Was this rocket science?

"You know Em, your not much help. Just go off somewhere while I cook the anniversary dinner."

This day was our parents twenty third anniversary. Long time, huh? I personally think its crazier then crazy. Twenty three years in a long time, considering if your married.

"Your not good in helping people's self esteem." I chuckled then walked out into the living room.

"Blah blah blah." Alice laughed from inside the kitchen. Mentally I stuck out my tongue at her.

"When are they gonna be here?" I asked Jasper.

Jasper who was now twenty two came by to the house to celebrate. He had his own apartment and everything now, living a good life. He still came around often to visit us, and to see how we were doing. I'm surprised he didn't have a girlfriend yet, sorta shocking considering that this was Jasper.

"In a hour or so I'm guessing." He replied, laying all the way back in the chair recliner.

"Ugh!" I stomped away, impatient. Let's just get this over with!

"Oh be quiet Emmett." Alice actually scolded me. What the hell was that about?

"Where's little Edwardo?" I asked to anyone.

"Outside." Jasper chuckled.

"Great what's that lil' kid doing outside?" Not waiting for a answer I walked to the front door and looked out the widow. I laughed at what I saw in front of me.

Edward was trying to practice his pitching skills. Can't blame the kid, but honestly to anyone that kid was not athletic. Probably one of the farthest thing from it. All the practice he could get was needed, that was for sure. I smirked, then went outside to go and help. Show him how a man did things around here.

"Edward!" I shouted, then held out my hand open gesturing for him to throw the baseball to me. He did.

"I can't get it right." He frowned.

"No need to fear, Emmett Cullen is here." I laughed.

"Your full of it. Pitch." He taunted.

"You just love to ask for it, don't you?" I threw the ball not that hard since Edward was still a small kid, but just enough for him to potentially miss it. He growled.

"You did that on purpose. I could of cached it if you threw it correctly."

"I did." I joked.

"Liar."

"Oh deal." I mocked.

"Ahh!" Alice screamed from inside. My attention immediately snapped to her.

"Alice?" I called running into the building.

A small fire was burning around the stove. At first I was stunned just watching the small red flames licked them self's around the table and items.

"Well fuck." I whispered to myself.

"Alice!" Edward screamed running to her side. He grabbed her hand, and yanked her away from the kitchen. I was still being an idiot standing there. God, what the hell do you do in this situation? Um think. Fire. What do you do after?...Uh...dammit. Police station! Yes!

I took out my cell phone, and quickly as I could dialed 911. Jasper, and I ran outside like Edward and Alice had. The fire was getting bigger. Ah shit, shit, shit and the fourth shit. As I pressed the phone to my ear, it seemed like they were taking however long they wanted. Stupid ass-

"You've dialed 911, please state your emergency." A girls voice automatically asked.

"Hi, uh...this is 193 south west Darson's Lane. There's a fire going on in my house, and um.."

"Has anyone been left inside, or is in need of an ambulance?" She asked professionally.

"No, we're all out." I answered.

"A fire fighter will be on its' way to help you. Please remain calm."

I laughed. "Uh okay?"

"Emmett you freaking cocksuc-" Jasper started to yell at me in disbelief before Alice covered his mouth for Edwards sake. I laughed more.

Jasper glared at me, and I grabbed onto Edward pulling him as far away from the house as we could. I still wanted to see what happened. As my family huddled together, I remembered something and...the fifth SHIT.

"Bella!" I yelled running inside.

"Emmett freaking McCarthy!" Jasper shouted, running right after me. I ignored him.

Give me a second, I thought. Please Jasper. Let me get Bella.

"I got to grab it!"

"Grab what?" Jasper was right behind my heels.

"It's the last thing I have of her!" I responded, getting into the living room. I lifted the couch seat up, and pulled out the scrapbook. I ran back out, passing the flames out on my way. The smoke was getting worse. I got in just in time before everything started burning.

I panted once outside, standing next to Alice and Edward. Jasper was now running out also. He looked at me like a was a crazy A-hole. To him I most likely was.

As I looked intently at the scrapbook that had dusty smoke on the front cover, my family all just stared at me. I slowly looked up to them. In the distance you could hear the sound of a fire engine. Louder and louder. The fire would be put out soon, and hopefully our parents would get here.

"What's up?" I nodded at them, and Alice groaned rolling her eyes, and leaning her head back.

"Jesus Christ." I think I heard her whisper.

"Flight 184 to Chicago is now boarding. Flight 184 to Chicago is now boarding." A computerize voice announced a few times on the intercom. That was us.

"Let's go guys." Jasper got up, grabbing his suitcase. I grabbed mine, same with Alice and Edward. We walked in a tight group to the airport passing. We passed the metal detectors clear, and continued forward to the airplane. This would be the first time for Edward to be on a plane, it must be scary for him. I knew it was for me the first time on a plane.

We were all settled down on the plane about a half an hour later, sitting in the seats. I was next to Jasper, and in front of us were Edward and Alice. They were quietly talking to each other, -I think she was trying to calm him down-, while me and Jasper didn't say a word. The silence grew into uncomfortableness, to extreme discomfort. Every once in awhile, I'd shift around in the seat.

As I sat, I thought about Bella. Why she left? Why she's gone? Why she didn't say goodbye to me? I just didn't understand it...we were friends. Best friends. I liked her so much. How shy she was, or how crazy she could get. When she'd smile, or when she'd blush. Something must of had happened. I know she was sick or something, but I never knew the reason why. So stupid she left.

Parent's dead. Bella gone. Parent's dead. Bella gone. Life gone. The people that mattered so much to me, gone. At least I knew what happened to my parents. I knew that they died when they were rushing to go to the house cause of that fire. I knew that as they were rushing they got into a car crash. Car rolled into a ditch, and they died. Alice blamed herself now. Because of that fire.

I blamed myself for Bella leaving. Maybe if I didn't react the way I did that day, maybe she would have felt better. She lost her hair, so what? It didn't make me hate her, not at all. But...I just didn't know. I would never know. Because shes gone. I frowned and sighed. Life sucked.

"I...don't know what to say to you Emmett." Jasper finally whispered as the plane took up into the air. I looked at him.

"We just lost our parents. But you lost them, and Bella. I never did get how you two guys were so close, but somehow you just stuck together. I believed that you guys were gonna get together later in life, you know? Date. Go out as a couple. She left for a reason Emmett. She didn't just ditch you. That must be hard to believe but she was...sick. You saw it in her that day when she collapsed. She was in desperate need to get medical attention." Jasper was saying quietly to me, making me think.

"Dad could have helped her. But he didn't." My teeth were clenched. I knew Bella was sick. But she still left, and my dad turned her down for help.

"Emmett I don't know anymore than you do. Dad never told me why Bella left but I think he knew. Whatever it was, you know that if dad could have helped her he would have. There must have been something way more to it then just....the hair loss."

I groaned. "I miss her." I whispered.

"I know Emmett. But that's life sometimes. Things come and they go."

"Not friends for life." I argued uncontrollably.

"Maybe she wasn't meant to be your friend for life." He answered.

"She would have if she didn't leave."

"Things happen," he repeated sighing. "Its hard to control. Its tough to believe at times, Its life. And it sucks, its torture when you believe something so...strongly. I can't bring her back. Sadly for all we know she could be dead. We didn't know what disease or sickness she got. I'm sorry, but I can't bring her back. No one can. Move on is tough, hard, but it just has to be done."

"Where do you learn this?" I quizzed.

"Talked to dad a lot." He frowned.

"Everyone is gone."

"Dad...mom...Bella...our home, our friends...our life."

"True." I murmured.

"Hey guys," Edward turned his head around. "I...um...don't want to go to Chicago. Do we know these people?"

"No." I answered solemnly.

"What if-"

Jasper stopped him before he said anything more. "These people will be nice. They aren't going to be evil or anything. They will take care of us, and we are going to act like the best of the best of kids to them. We will respect them, because they were nice enough to take us in. You understand?"

I could see why Jasper had to say what he had to say. He had to be firm, and everything. I nodded my head so Edward could see that I agreed with him.

"Okay." He answered softly, and turned back around.

Alice talked to him, coaxing him somewhat. The little boy needed it.

A hour or so later I chuckled.

"What?" Jasper asked.

"Do you think our parents would be happy that we're going to Chicago?"

Jasper shrugged. "Maybe. I'm not sure. They'd want us to be wherever we are taken care of."

"What about Bella?" I smiled.

"Missing you."

My smile grew.
