You didn't expect another update so soon, did you?
The reason behind this: reviews are good motivation!
3.
The door bell rings loudly and I hurry to the door. Upon opening it, my two best friends Jasper and Alice Whitlock enter through.
"We just got back from L.A and heard the news. How are you holding up, Edward?" rambles Alice. "Where's Masen?"
I take a deep breath. "I'm holding up as expected Allie", I answer softly. "Masen's still asleep."
It was 7: 15 AM after all.
Alice takes one look at and then heads upstairs to undoubtedly check up on Masen.
"Edward…" begins Jasper.
I don't want to listen to anything he has to say.
So I cut him off before he can continue. "I know", I abruptly say. "I know you and Alice are here for me and the kid but I can't talk about it. Not just yet."
His blue eyes are filled with unshed tears. He says: "I get where you're coming from and I know how you feel."
That's not a lie. His fifteen year old younger brother lost his battle with leukemia when Jazz was seventeen.
It's been twelve years but he is still unable to talk about Peter to anyone except Alice or me.
He looks away to wipe at his eyes and I bite back my own tears. "I've got to head out and make preparations for the funeral. Do you guys mind staying here and looking after Masen for a while?"
It's short but that's all for now. I plan to post Chapter 4 later today, depending on how many reviews this gets.
Hint: review and you'll get another chapter real quick! : )
