Chapter Two

Marchin' On

I held on tightly to the steering wheel, Liam was sleeping beside me and the girls were with Emmett in his van ahead of us. My truck only had about three seats which were in the front so they wouldn't be able to fit with me, Liam called sitting in the truck first so the girls were shoved in with Emmett.

Poor girls, I can only imagine what pain they're going through.

"Siobhan...Siobhan...sorry." I heard Liam mumble.

Curiously, I glanced at him to see his eyebrows furrowed in worry and confusion. Liam didn't talk in his sleep unless something was bothering him, no doubt the distance that was between Siobhan and him was what was getting to him. I understood his pain, Edward had left to go to medical school in London and lived over there for few years.

I went to see him and he came to see me, but we weren't together all the time like I wanted us to be .

He had finished his eight years and was coming back home but I hadn't known, I was depressed and just laying in bed all day. Dad thought I was sick or pregnant but I tried telling him I wasn't, when Edward came home he found me crying my eyes out and trying to call his name. That was the one of the many times that calling his name actually worked, he wrapped his arms around me and tried to calm me down.

Sometimes I miss him a lot, sometimes too much that I can hardly bare it. When the kids go to school I let everything come out but I have to make sure I look happy before Liam gets home, he usually gets home first.

My cell phone began to ring in the cup holder and I reached in, opening it and putting it on speaker.

"Talk to me." I said.

I heard a loud booming laugh and sighed, "Yes Kate?" I asked.

"Mom! You need to take us with you in your car, Uncle Emmett has gone nuts. I'll ride in the back with all the boxes, I don't care!" she pleaded.

The phone was snatched away from her, "Mom? Leave Kate with Uncle Emmett and take me!" she cried.

Again the phone was taken away, "Hey! The kids are having a blast over here." Emmett yelled into the phone.

"Emmett, don't scare my kids. I want them back in the condition I gave them to you in." I said.

He chuckled evilly, "Bye." with that he hung up.

I shook my head and closed the phone, setting it back in the cup holder. I hadn't noticed Liam was awake and looked at him, "Hey." I said.

He yawned, "Hi." he mumbled.

"Are you ok? You were talking in your sleep." I asked, looking back in front of me.

"No, I miss Siobhan." he admitted, blushing.

Of course that was the problem, it mostly was.

"You two will get through this, when you go back to Seattle for the summer you'll see her." I said, smiling at him.

He smiled widely, "You're right, thanks Mom." he said.

"No problem, your father and I had the same problem when we were your age." I told him.

"Yeah, he told me." he said softly, looking out the window.

Edward was a sensitive topic for all the kids, especially Liam and Kate. Those two were hit the hardest but I only just realized that Tanya was really hurt by his death as well.

I sighed, "It's not like he's gone forever. You'll meet him one day, but not now because you need to stick around with us for awhile." I explained.

"I miss him a lot sometimes." Liam whispered brokenly.

Since the day he was born up till now I've never seen him so sad, so broken. He's always so strong, and untouchable. He closed his eyes to hide his tears from me and I blinked away a few of my own, "He probably misses being able to hug you and wishes you could've seen his at your graduation." I choked out.

Liam nodded and said nothing after that, I did the same and plugged my Ipod in. Emmett got me this thing so I can connect my Ipod into the car, I wondered if my car was too outdated for it but Emmett somehow did it.

Marchin' On by OneRepublic

For those days we felt like a mistake, Those times when love's what you hate Somehow We keep marchin on For those nights that I couldn't be there, I've made it harder to know that you know That somehow We'll keep movin on There's so many wars we fought There's so many things we're not But with what we have I promise you that We're marchin on We're marchin on For all of the plans we've made There isn't a flag I'd wave Don't care where we've been I'd sink us to swim We're marchin on We're marchin on For those doubts that swirl all around us For those lives that tear at the seams We know We're not what we've seen Oh For this dance we move with each other There ain't no other step Than one foot Right in front of the other Oh There's so many wars we fought There's so many things we're not But with what we have I promise you that We're marchin on We're marchin on For all of the plans we've made There isn't a flag I'd wave Don't care where we've been I'd sink us to swim We're marchin on We're marchin on Right Right Right Right Left Right Right Right Right Left Right Right Right Marchin On We'll have the days we break And we'll have the scars to prove it We'll have the bombs that we saved And we'll have the heart Not to lose it For all of the times we fought For all of the things I'm not Oh! You put one foot in front of the other We move like we ain't got no other We go where we go we're marchin on Marchin on There's so many wars we fought There's so many things we're not But with what we have I promise you that We're marchin on We're marchin on Right Right Right Right Left Right Right Right Right Left Marchin On Marchin on

I smiled and looked over at Liam, he was smiling to himself as the song ended. We can't give up just yet, like the song says we gotta keep marchin' on.

"We're marchin' on." I whispered.
