Chapter 21: Becoming parents and saying goodbye
Four days later Carlisle and Esme were allowed to take Emily home, Esme smiled at the little miracle who had Alice's raven coloured hair with the hint of Jasper's curls. Carlisle could see Esme deeply missed her best friend and wanted to surprise her with something big but he knew he would wait until their little Bree was born to surprise her.
"Thank you Uncle Garrett." Carlisle spoke as he shook his Uncle's hand.
"No problem Bud I like Esme and she is going to love this." Garrett said back patting his back
"I know even though Esme is not a materialistic person she deserves all of this." Carlisle said back as he held the deed of an Island.
"What are going to name it Carlisle?" his uncle asked raising his eyebrows
"I think because this island is as beautiful as Esme it is only fitting to call it Isle Esme." Carlisle replied happily as he uncle smiled at him "I've got to go Uncle I'm helping Esme with the funeral as Jasper and Alice's parents are dead and the foster parents don't care I'm helping out." Carlisle finished his smile fading.
"It's alright Carlisle look at Emily she is alive and she is where Alice and Jasper both wanted her to be with you and Esme." Garrett said hugging his only nephew "See you later mate." he finished as Carlisle got in his car and drove off.
"Honey I'm home." Carlisle said as enter their apartment "Hello my love." Esme said whispering as she sat in the rocking chair with Emily Carlisle smiled and gestured for her to get up before sitting in the chair with both Esme and Emily in his lap "How is your Uncle?" Esme asked as Carlisle gently kissed her neck "Good his good and how are my three favourite girls?" Carlisle asked kissing Esme's cheek before kissing Emily's little nose as he rubbed Esme's almost 8 month belly "We are all good...I need your help Carlisle with the eulogy." Esme whispered "Of course Darling we will do it tonight ok." Carlisle said back hugging her gently "Ok." Esme said quietly "I can make some omelette for dinner if you want or I could order a vegetarian pizza." Esme asked as Carlisle played with her hair "I'll call the pizza you just rest with Em ok." Carlisle said kissing her once more "Ok Carlisle if you are sure." Esme said as she sat down on the lounge while Carlisle phoned for pizza.
While waiting for the pizza Carlisle and Esme fed, bathed and put Emily to bed and by the time that was all done the pizza had arrived the couple took turns of feeding each other pieces of pizza and garlic bread before having a relaxing bath together going through their eulogy before long Carlisle carried Esme to bed and both fell into a deep slumber.
The day of the funeral had arrived Esme wore a black dress that was knee length and very comfortable as Carlisle wore his favourite tuxedo. Esme dressed Emily in a little black onesie and put a little bow in her hair Carlisle smiled and kissed her cheek as they began to drive to the service, many people from school were invited Heidi Valance and Chelsea Morgan from the pottery club Zafrina Newman, Senna Logan,Tia Hogan and Kebi Hogan from art club Ben Gardiner, Randall Scott and Dimitri Evans from Carlisle's former football team both Carlisle and Esme did not invite the Mean team as they didn't want them ruining their best friends funeral.
The mood was sombre as the couple walked in with Carlisle holding Emily "I love you Carlisle." Esme murmured as they said down in the front pew. The priest spoke about how tragic the loss was and how sad it was to lose two young inspiring lives from the word before too long it Carlisle's turn to speak Carlisle spoke of two people who were non judgemental and that they were so warm and loving people and that it was not fair that a drunk driver who survived the crash gets to live while two young parents don't get see their daughter grow up.
Esme was now up for her eulogy she waddled to the stand and began her teary eulogy: "I met Alice in Kindergarten and we hit it off straight away and this past year I had the pleasure of meeting Jasper these two people were so amazingly beautiful inside and out because beauty does not come from the outside it comes from within I will miss my two best friends and as Carlisle said what can't they be here now laughing and smiling watching their daughter Emily grow up while some irresponsible person risk their live and cost two others theirs get to live. Goodbye Alice Mary Whitlock and Jasper Alexander Whitlock we will miss you forever may you rest in peace."
Many people sat around after the ceremony and both Dimitri and Ben came out with a shocking revelation that the drunk driver of the car was Mike Newton Carlisle shook his head while Esme held Emily close to her as the girls comforted them both "Don't worry baby it's alright." Carlisle whispered in Esme's ear before kissing her cheek.
