"what-" but before Todd could finish Carlisle pinned him up against the wall by his throat.
"If it wasn't for your Anna...Bella wouldn't be-dead!" Carlisle yelled and Todd's eyes widened. Emmett pulled Carlisle off Todd and he fell to the ground. Carlisle cried on the floor and I hugged him from behind. I too let my tears fall and collapse with Carlisle, soon Emmett joined, then Jasper, then Alice. Todd walked to Bella's body and jumped back in shock.
"I'm so sorry" he whispered.

I had never felt this amount of pain in all of my existence. When I was with Isabella, butterflies consumed my stomach every time she entered the room, now its like I'm empty. There's nothing left in me to love. I tried to remember Bella's features: her bottom lip that always jutted out, her perfectly pale skin, her bright honey-glow eyes, her musical laughter...so many things I wouldn't get to see or hear or kiss. I loved that woman so much. God I'm so lucky to love her and there's not a day that goes by when I don't think of her and everything she has given me. I knew Bella wasn't coming back. The worst part was today. Her funeral.
"I'm very sorry Doctor Cullen" people said as they passed her casket, I said nothing and did nothing, I was nothing without this girl. I looked in the crowd and saw my family: Rose sitting with her legs crossed with a tissue in hand, Emmett holding her slightly, Todd with our newly turned Anna protecting her, Alice stood at the end of the aisle and I knew Jasper wasn't coming. Everyone was seated and the minister began.
"Isabella Marie Cullen was a special girl. Someone who will not be forgotten and will live forever in our hearts. Now a few words from Bella's boyfriend, Doctor Carlisle Cullen." The minister stepped aside for me and I sucked an unneeded breath and began.
"Isabella was...my everything. I couldn't get up out of bed without seeing her face there giggling or her dancing as she cleaned. I'm a man of my word and I promised Isabella I would love her every second of everyday. Forever. I intend to keep that promise. I love her. No one can take that away" I smiled at her casket and up to the sky...I wondered if she was watching me. That's when he appeared. Jasper at the end of the aisle looking like death, he had dark circles under his eyes and he looked gaunt. He said he wanted to speak and I gladly let him.
"Bells was my little sister, my little piece of heaven. I don't think there was a single person who didn't love her as soon as they met her. She's so beautiful and kind and smart...she didn't deserve this fate. I remember once Bells and I went to a lake I found and she sat there with her feet in the water and I remember her saying, 'dying is a part of life. You laugh you live...you love if you're lucky. I'm not afraid of dying because I've already lived my life' she was way ahead of everyone all the time." Jasper chuckled but no smile was on my face.
ALPOV
All the guests that came to Bella's funeral had left and it was just the family. I looked into her casket and tears rolled down my face, that's my little sister lying in her grave...I could've done more-I could've taken that bullet for her. Jasper held me close with tears gathering in his eyes; I loved him so much and he was so brave for coming here. I remember when Bella and Jasper actually became really good friends. Like it was yesterday.
*Flashback*
Bella and Edward were sat playing pool whilst everyone else watched intently. Bella potted 3 of hers with a smug smile and Edward looked frustrated.
"Stop it Swan" Edward warned and all of us felt uneasy...He hadn't called Bella a Cullen even though they were married. Bella lost her smile and became reclusive and shy, I looked at Jasper who had a worried expression. Bella potted another and Rosalie laughed.
"FUCK!" Edward yelled-he snapped the pool queue and broke the table making Bella scream as he did so. Bella began to cry and Jasper zoomed to her putting her behind his back. I remember how Jasper's father had abused his sister, Carlisle put a hand on Edwards back and growled. Jasper hugged Bella rocking her back and forth until she stopped crying.
"You okay Bells?! he asked her sweetly-she nodded and they kept hugging; Jasper turned to Edward with a stern expression, "ever upset my sister again and I'll kill you."
Bella hugged him closer and he kissed her forehead-since then they became inseparable.
And now we stood looking into her grave, I couldn't imagine what Carlisle was feeling, If it had been Jasper in there I'd probably kill myself. But Carlisle wasn't going to kill himself-that'd be too easy so instead he was willing to live through all the horrors and misery life brings, all for her. They lowered her into the ground with solemn faces and It was done...it felt too easy like I was missing something. We all walked home feeling miserable while the rain poured reminding me of Bella's song 'don't you fret'.
