Chapter 20
Diamond Man
The funeral for Elizabeth Masen
People gathered in the church, no one in the room and had a dry eye, Bella held Edward close to her and se sat down in the front of the church, it had been 4 weeks since the death of Elizabeth and everyone still couldn't believe it.
Edward had been acting different, it was like he had split personalities, one side wanted vengeance then the next was too tired for vengeance and then was anger and then passion. She realized he had became more handsy with me, wanting her to touch him in placed she haven't touched him. She understood why through, he needed to feel someone thing good, he needed to let go of the bad feeling. But no matter what we did, no matter what actions were done. The damaged had been done and Elizabeth was dead.
Next to Edward sat Emmett, Rosalie, Alice and Jasper. There was still no sign of Jack, no one had seen him since Bella and Edward did that night.
The vicar came in and the front doors were shut, the church was crowded, because there wasn't enough seats people had to stand up. Edward was nearly crushing Bella's hand she looked to her side and saw Jack standing there, on the outside everything was in place, his suit was spotless, his hair was perfectly done but his eyes were red he must have noticed Bella was looking at him because he turned to her and smiled softly, she returned the smile and turned back to the front, Elizabeth's casket was white with white and blue roses on the top. Hymns were sang and the Vicar began to speak again
"I shall read the list of the people who wish to speak of Elizabeth, first Mr. Jack…."
Edward looked sharply to where movements was being made on his right, his mouth opened slightly at the sight of Jack walking up onto the stage.
"I've known Elizabeth her entire life, there was a time where I thought me and Elizabeth would be together, but I needed to go away with my father, it broke both of out hearts to be parted but I made her promise she needed to move on and find someone who cares about her, 4 years when I was gone I heard Elizabeth had married Charles and her sister Esme had married Carlisle, the three most important people in my life were happy, when I came back I met with Elizabeth and her new husband, I was scared because I didn't want my love for her to make her feel uncomfortable in the same room as Charles, but I knew the way she looked at him she loved him, Elizabeth came to me one day and she made me promise something, I could never deny her anything, she made me promise a couple of things, the first not to weep for the rest of my life when she died, 2 for her funeral to be a laugh and fun not for everyone to be sat down and saying I can't believe she's dead, because I am and want my life to be celebrated and 3rd for me to look after Edward and to be there for him in any way possible. Elizabeth made me her lawyer and she gave me her will and made me promise not to open it until her death, at her wake I will read it out and then we shall do what Elizabeth wants. To celebrate her life and think a woman like Elizabeth could never die, because no doubt she will forever be in our hearts" Jack nodded and walked off the stage, people clapped at his speech and he walked up to Edward and the pair hugged tightly, Jack said he was sorry for not being around for the last couple of weeks and Edward said forget about it, you're here now.
Emmett was up next
"Elizabeth was like a second mother to me, when I was little she was my idol I wanted to marry a woman like Elizabeth who was kind and gracious a couple of weeks before her death she gave me this" he went inside of his pocket and pulled out a little red box "I have a bruise from Elizabeth on my stomach where she hit me when she found out what I did to Rose" Rosalie put her hea down but she was smiling, her face was streaming with tears "I know I've done I really fucked up thing" he cringed and apologized to the vicar Rosalie shook her head with a smile "but I made a promise to Elizabeth that I would love Rosalie forever and forever have her with me and so" he walked up to Rosalie and got on one knee, Rosalie's eyes widened "I'm rubbish at this" he apologized with a small smile "But Elizabeth helped me" he placed the box in her hand "Rosalie Lily Hale, I've screwed things up with you by acting like an ass and a jerk, I should have been there for you instead of freaking out, I wish I was the man you met all those years ago, I wish I was the man Elizabeth thought I was, but if you give me a chance" he opened the box and Rosalie started to breath heavily, a huge diamond ring was in there "I will make everything right, I'll be anyone you want me to be, I'll support you in whatever you want to do and I'll be the man you met those years ago, you don't have to say yes, but I ask you keep it because I'm scared if I didn't do this Elizabeth would haunt my dreams until I did" Edward chuckled and kissed Bella's head "Rosalie Hale, will you be Mrs, Rosalie McCarthy and make me the happiest man on earth"
Rosalie put her hands on her mouth and started to shake, but her head bobbed up and down and Emmett smiled so large his face hurt, he placed the ring on her finger and twirled her around, everyone in the church clapped.
Edward was the last; he stood up there and looked at Bella
"Myself and Bella will be getting married soon, we were going to make my auntie maid of honour, she would have liked that, Elizabeth was right what she said to Jack, we shouldn't mourn her forever, we should always remember her for who she was, now once did I hear her moan or say anything bad about anything, Elizabeth Masen was an angel from heaven, she looked after me when my parents died and she continued to look after me when I was 18. I have so much to say about her but can't even to imagine how to fit it all in, so I'm going to word her in the only way possible. Beautiful, graceful, friendly, loving, caring, poetic, a romantic, a mother figure a sister figure, a auntie figure, even they cannot justify her, but I say we all live for her, to carry out what she did. Not many people knew this about her but she owned a Orphanage which now needs money to continue, in one loving respect for Elizabeth I shall be donating £ to it, I ask you to get any money you can to help the children who need a place to stay, to help it progress through out time and for it still to be standing when we're gone, Jack will be taking over it for her, any donations shall go to him, however this Friday in two days I want you all to get dressed up and meet me at Frankie's hotel and we will begin to donate to the Orphanage" Edward kissed Elizabeth casket and then joined Bella who kissed his cheek.
The service was over and as soon as everyone went into Edward's apartment the party was in full swing, Edward even started to relax and danced with Bella. Jack had his turn with Bella kissed her cheek much to the amusement of Edward as she blushed.
"I have a request" he said
"Go on"
"Can you sing Elizabeth's top five favourite song?"
She smiled and nodded "What's it called?"
"Ain't misbehavin by Elle Fitzpatrick"
She nodded and went to the front of the room
No one to talk with
All by myself
No one to walk with
But I'm happy on the shelf
Jasper danced with Alice he dipped his head down and whispered something in her ear which made her smile
Ain't misbehavin'
I'm savin' my love for you
I know for certain
The one I love
I'm through with flirtin'
It's just you I'm thinkin' of
Ain't misbehavin'
I'm savin' my love for you
Jack stood by Edward as they both watched Bella
"She's a rising star Edward, you've done good with Bella"
"Elizabeth told me she loved her as soon as met her" Edward replied chuckling
Like Jack Horner
In the corner
Don't go nowhere
What do I care?
Your kisses are worth waitin' for
Believe me
I don't stay out late
Don't care to go
I'm home about eight
Just me and my radio
Ain't misbehavin'
Savin' my love for you
"I'm still amazed you actually managed to get those diamonds after the first time"
"I needed a distraction; I know the week after the…incident was Elizabeth was wrong but…"
"I know Edward, trust me I know, I understand, we all needed a distraction"
Like Jack Horner
In the corner
Don't go nowhere
What do I care?
Your kisses are worth waitin' for
Believe me
Jack hugged Edward and then went over to a little girl and asked her to dance, James and Victoria little girl Emilie was only 5 years old, when they joined Edward it was because of their child. She had her father's blonde hair and mother perfectly smooth face and green eyes. Emilie stood on Jack's feet as he danced with her she smiled all the way through
I don't stay out late
Don't care to go
I'm home about eight
Just me and my radio
Ain't misbehavin'
Savin' my love for you
Ain't misbehavin'
Savin' my love for you
The crowd cheered and she ran up to Edward who kissed her on the lips and bent her down into a dip, the crowd whistled and wolf howled. Edward brought Bella back up with a flushed face and bright eyes. She rolled her eyes at them all and then spotted a baby. She walked up to the parents and began to ask questions how old she was, what they did for a living the usual stuff, everyone loved Bella. I walked up to Jasper and brought him to the side
"You once said you wanted to quit this" he nodded, I shook my hand out and he looked at it confused "after doing that one more job with the diamonds, you can go, I wouldn't keep you here if you didn't want to be"
He smiled and shook my hand "Thanks boss"
"We should get together though, you, me"
"Ed, I don't swing that way"
"Dick head" I laughed "I mean me, Bella, you Alice, Emmett and Rose, Jack also, have a little dinner"
"Sure, I'll speak to Alice see when she's free"
I nodded and punched his arm before walking up to Emmett and Rose
"If he need beating up, let me know when you're done with him"
She smiled and I looked to see where Bella was she was talking to a woman I didn't recognize, she wasn't at the church and she was wearing a fur coat, I left Rose and Emmett and walked up to them
"Bella Swan?"
Bella turned to see a woman looking at her with a fur coat and black eyes
"Yes?"
"You need to get Edward and his crew out now. The pigs are coming"
Her heart started to race
"Why would they be coming?"
"Look, I can't explain it all, I shouldn't even be here, he'll kill when he finds out, trust me, you need to get them out now and get them to lye low"
"Everything alright Doll" Edward put his arm around me and looked at the woman
"You need to go now" she repeated
"Why?..."
But Edward was cut off by someone charging into the room, they dragged Edward off Bella and threw him to the ground they went for all of the crew, Even Jack, the children cried as their mothers tried to comfort them. Rosalie was pushed to the side and if Emmett hadn't have been handcuffed and left on the floor there was no doubt he would have killed the pigs, Alice was shaking and was being comforted by an elderly woman at the side of her. The new Irish pig walked in calmly and took everything in, he looked to Bella and smirked, the gave her a dirty look and then looked in front of the room
"Edward Cullen" they turned Edward away from the wall, his hands being tied behind his back by the handcuffs "Emmett McCarthy" Emmett spit in the officers face as he held him, that received him a kick in the stomach by an officer at the side, Bella rushed to Rosalie as she was about to attack the officer, the last thing Emmett needed was to worry about Rosalie in jail, she held her close to her "Jasper Whitlock" Jasper looked at him calmly occasionally smiling at Alice to say it was ok "Jack O'Riley" Jack was looking at the officers in confusion he tried to sit up but he was being pushed to the ground by the officers also "James and Victoria Nomad" the man and woman beside them took Emilie to the side, Emilie was crying for her parents, they kept on saying to calm down and everything will be fine "I am arresting all of you on the suspicion of theft"
Edward looked at me, but the Irish pig walked to him and got in Edward's face
"Hope you had a good run Diamond Man"
