Adalie just sent her email. She felt guilty and empty inside. She ignored it and surfed the internet for a good ticket. She was upset at herself for resigning so quickly from the hospital she worked at right now. She knew that once she came back from this vacation, she would go back to Forks. That was where her home was. She saw a sale price on a ticket to Hawaii because it was off season. She was just about to book it when a knock interrupted her. She looked at the door in surprise and waited a few moments before answering it. She looked at the person and gave a watery smile.

"Come in." Adalie welcomed her guest.

"How are you feeling? I know it's difficult right now, losing your brother." Adalie asked Angela Weber. Angela came in and hugged Adalie. Adalie hugged her back and they both cried softly. They let go of each other and Adalie closed the door and led them to the couch.

"I'm sorry I came by without giving you notice. I just had to see how you were doing." Angela told her. Adalie gave her a tiny smile.

"That's okay, I'm glad you came. I was just booking a trip to Hawaii actually. I just need to get away from here. Everything reminds me of him." Adalie told Angela.

"That's... that's good. I wanted to thank you for loving him so much. You made his last couple of months so happy." Angela said tearing up again. Adalie hugged Angela and cried hard. Angela comforted her.

"I only got to love him for 7 weeks. I wasted so much time in the past. Why couldn't we be together in high school?" Adalie cried. Angela just hugged her tighter and cried with her.

"I miss him so much Angela. I only got to know him these last 7 weeks and it's breaking me apart. How are you dealing with it?" Adalie asked Angela.

"I miss him so much too. He was my little brother...was..."Angela broke down as well. The girls comforted each other while grieving together. After a few minutes the girls calmed down and looked at each other. They both laughed at their faces.

"Stay in touch with the family, okay? You'll always be a part of our family." Angela told her. Adalie burst out a laugh and nodded her head.

"Thank you, I will. What are your plans now?" Adalie asked her.

"Well, I'm going to go back to work as a journalist in New York. My parents are going back to Forks and Bryan is going to go travel the world and spread the rest of Justin's ashes around the world. It was something they wanted to do together." Angela told her. Adalie nodded her head.

"That's good. No one is staying here?" Adalie asked. Angela shook her head.

"No, we only came here for Justin's treatment. All the memories we have here, apart from you, is painful. We need to move on." Angela informed her.

"Yeah, I'm getting out of here too." Adalie agreed. Angela patted Adalie's hand.

"Don't be afraid to love again. Justin would have wanted you to be happy for the rest of your life, not hanging on to his memory." Angela told her. Adalie felt more free and smiled. Angela was right, he would have wanted her happy. That's how great Justin was.

"Thank you Angela, that means a lot." Adalie hugged her. Angela patted her back.

"I have to go now, my flight is in 5 hours and I still have to pack up. Keep in touch!" Angela said as she departed. Adalie waved goodbye and closed the door. She got two steps away from the door before there was another knock. Adalie saw Angela's necklace on the table and got it. When did she take that off? She opened the door.

"Here you go." She said handing the necklace back. It wasn't Angela.

"Jacob?" Adalie gasped surprised. Jacob responded with a hug.

"What? You? I... What are you doing here?" Adalie asked once he put her back down. Jacob grinned at her.

"You haven't been answering my emails. You know, part of the long distance friendship, is both parties respond to each other?" Jacob joked. Adalie, not in the mood for jokes, frowned.

"Jacob, I just sent you an email saying I needed to be alone." She said fiercely. Jacob flinched at her tone.

"I know, but I'm not letting you run away again. We don't have to be in a relationship, but we're going to be friends." Jacob left no room for argument. That didn't stop Adalie.

"Look Jacob, there are things you don't know." Adalie began, but Jacob interrupted her.

"Then tell me. I want to be here for you Adalie. Please let me." Jacob told her. Adalie stared at him for a moment before bursting into tears and hugging him. She told him about Justin and why she couldn't be in a relationship with him right now. She was still mourning for Justin and that was going to take time. Jacob rubbed her back and let her cry. He told her that it was okay, that it will get better.

"Thank you Jacob." Adalie thanked him and he gave her a cheeky smile.

"Sure sure, least I can do." Jacob joked.

"So where are we going?" He asked her. Adalie raised an eyebrow and chuckled.

"We?" Adalie asked. Jacob tilted his head to the side and Adalie giggled at his face. He looked so much like a puppy.

"Well of course, we're friends now. We need to party together." Jacob informed her. Adalie looked at him with a smile.

"There's pretty cheap tickets to Hawaii, but only friends right?" Adalie made sure Jacob knew that this wasn't for them to develop a relationship. It was for her to let go of Justin Weber. Jacob nodded his head.

"Look, it's completely platonic that I'm we'll pay for our own tickets. We can even book two seperate rooms." Jacob suggested. Adalie was happy that Jacob was being so caring towards her. She thought having two separate rooms was a waste of money though.

"What if we bring two other people? That way, it's a group trip and we don't have to waste so much money." Adalie told him. Jacob nodded his head in agreement. They decided to bring Leah and Bryan. They all needed the break. They planned out the trip and booked a two-week all inclusive trip to Hawaii. They were going to leave in a week and informed their friends. Both of them agreed quickly. Everything was set and despite a part of her heart still broken, she was looking forward to this trip.
