***Hi Everyone! Ok, so this chapter is quite sad if I do say so myself….but I hope you enjoy it! Please review, I would love to hear what you think!***

"Mom?" Amber asked groggily as she slowly sat up. Her head was spinning and she could hear the monitor beside her going off in uneven beeps. She felt like she had just woken up from a long nights sleep.

"Amber, your awake!" She felt her mom take her hands in hers and stroke her hair. "Thank god your awake."

"Wha…what…what happened?" She asked as a million thoughts ran through her head with dizzying speed.

"You were climbing with Brian and you fell," her mother replied soothingly. "You've been in a coma for six days, the doctors where worried you wouldn't wake up…"

"Oh…" Suddenly a deep and familiar voice broke through her thoughts. It was a voice she had missed, a voice she had dreamed of hearing again, a voice that always made her feel as though everything would be okay again. She turned to face her mother who was dabbing her eyes with a Kleenex. "Mom?"

"Yes sweetheart?"

"Where is Emmett?"

Mrs. McCarty looked taken aback at the name she had tried so hard to push out of her daily thoughts. "What do you mean?"

"Where is Emmett?" Amber persisted.

"Hunny," Mrs. McCarty said gently. "Emmett has been dead for five years."

Amber shook her head as tears welled up in her eyes. "No…he was here mom-I know he was!"

"Amber I know the past few days must be traumatizing for you, but there is no possible way Emmett could have been here."

"But he was mom," she pleaded as she tried to explain what she remembered partly to her mother and partly to herself. "He sat right where you are sitting now, and he was talking to me. I don't remember everything he said but I remember his voice, and I remember him talking about how he loves us and misses us, and…"

She slowed talking as her tears poured down her face along with her mothers. Mrs. McCarty tried to control herself. "I'm sorry hunny, but that's just not possible. Emmett is gone…he won't come back…I'm so sorry hunny…"

Amber cried into her mothers arms as snapshot images flashed through her head. Pictures of her and Emmett going for walks through the woods, him reading to her before bed, them seeing how high they could go on the swing set, the little things.

Once the two had controlled themselves, Mrs. McCarty got a doctor. He came in and smiled. "Amber, nice to meet you finally. My name is Dr. Cullen."

"Hi," she replied shyly.

While he took her blood pressure, checked her pulse, and made sure her temperature was normal, Mrs. McCarty went to the restroom. Once he was done Amber looked up at him. "Did someone by the name of Emmett come visit me while I was…asleep?"

Carlisle made sure to keep his face composed as he answered evenly. "I don't believe so…"

Amber tried to describe him as best as her distant memories could allow. "He's tall, dark hair, broad shoulders, laughs a lot….."

"I don't recall anyone by that description coming into your room." He lied smoothly. He hated lying to anyone, but for Ambers emotional safety, it would be best she didn't know that Emmett had, in fact, visited her that one night. "How did you know him?"

"He is…was…my big brother." She gulped quietly to control the sobs she wanted to release. "He died five years ago.."

"I'm very sorry for your lose." Carlisle replied quietly. "Sometimes when people are in the state that you were in, their mind hears things that can either be real, or from memories."

"I'm sure he was here…" Amber insisted.

Carlisle smiled softly as he stood up to leave. He went to his pocket and took out the note Emmett had asked him to give her. Although he didn't think it was a great idea, Emmett had insisted. He handed Amber the folded piece of paper. "I think he could have been." She looked down at the note, then back up to him confused. He smiled. "If we are talking about the same person…then he wanted me to give you this."

And with that he left. Amber stared down at the note and with shaky hands, slowly unfolded it. In her brothers neat writing were simple words that made her heart skip a beat. She smiled as he pressed the note to her chest and vowed to keep this moment to herself forever. Because this note said everything that she had missed…

Dear Amber,

I love you little sister, don't forget that. Ever.

Love, Emmett
