A/N: Once again inspired by Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows Part One this time the graveyard scene. I'm kind of in a weird mood so this might be a bit emotional let me know what you think.

"I've been thinking," Edward walked back in with Serena's coffee, "Why don't you go visit his grave?" Edward sat down on the sofa.

"What?" Serena asked confused, "He's buried up in Scotland remember?" Serena drank the coffee the warmth of the mug warming her hands.

"I mean the memorial one your mum and you had done," Edward sat back.

"It's two hours away I can't be that long," Serena stared down at the coffee, "Anyway I made it more for mum not for me."

"Of course but don't you think just going there?" Edward for some reason wanted her to go he put it down to her not really grieving after he died.

"I don't one of your lectures right now," Serena snapped he was getting under her skin now, "OK so just drop it."

Edward sighed to himself he then walked over, "You need to allow yourself to… say goodbye."

"I said goodbye nineteen years ago at the funeral," Serena kept her gaze down at the coffee.

"You didn't cry," Edward remembered, "You kept on checking if other people were OK and even when you cried you stopped yourself."

"I don't do cliché moments," Serena ran he thumb up and down the mug, "If you've forgotten."

"Serena crying over a parent being gone is not cliché it's human," Edward looked at Serena, "How about I come with you? That way you won't be on your own."

"What so I can break down and cry helplessly making you look like the hero? No thank you I'd rather vomit," Serena drank the coffee again, "What do you want from me Edward?" Serena asked now curious to why he was being so nice and understanding.

"I want nothing from you… I just think you need to let go of that worry of looking weak," Edward answered her question, "Nineteen years is a long time to bottle up."

"It's how I do things," Serena then turned on her laptop, "Now if you excuse me I have work to do," Edward got the hint he had to force himself to leave after the door was shut Serena twiddled with her necklace again, Edward's suggestion of visiting the grave was now becoming more tempting to take up. He was right she didn't cry at the funeral and when she cried at home she would stop herself from being so "stupid", then she got out her phone scrolled down the contacts then clicked on Edward's number and typed up a message.

I'll go

Edward felt his phone vibrate and he then replied.

When do you want to go?

Now

OK

Serena told Ric she needed two hours off he had asked her why then when she replied with a short quick answer he nagged her until he knew, "Do you want me to come?" Ric offered.

"No it's OK," Serena walked on wondering how she had been convinced again by Edward. Ric watched her walk on now he knew why she had been acting so out of character today.

Edward was stood by the entrance, "Sure you want to do this?" Edward had to double check just to make sure it wasn't just so he would shut up.

"Like you said it'll be good," Serena made sure no one saw them get in the car together.

I found a great, big hole in the middle of my life, shaped just like my heart, just like my heart.

Two hours later they arrived back in their old hometown Serena felt weird coming back though it had been a year since she had been here, coming back felt strange, "Do you remember where it is?" Edward asked whilst they drove now through a country side part.

"Yes it's by the cliff tops," Serena answered she was feeling nervous, "Do you remember where they are?" she asked.

"I do," Edward answered he kept his eye on the road then about ten minutes later they were by the cliff tops; beautiful long cliffs with a beach underneath they could hear the waves crashing and the smell of sea air, "I can wait here if you wanna go."

Serena breathed in the sea air and walked towards the end of the cliff top then she read a stone that said: Duncan Malcolm McKinnie rests in Scotland remembered here by loved ones, "Well I've managed to be convinced to come here by Satan," Serena said whilst she knelt down, "Of course you'd know him by Edward. I urr guess I've come here to say peace really as you would know if I could drive to Scotland in ten minutes I would but of course it takes longer than that… I'm not a flower cliché person so I've got nothing like that," Serena had to swallow a lump in her throat, "And I know you hate clichés."

Edward watched as Serena stood up he observed her as she walked towards the end of the cliff, Serena looked down the waves crashing against rocks and she let the air freeze her face for a second. Then she walked back to the headstone, "I never cried at your funereal because I knew you would've been sad if I did… and I've never really expressed how I felt when you suddenly passed. You should've gone to a doctor if you felt anything abnormal, you should've stayed at home and not gone to that football match you should've… you should've been healthier," Years of kept in feelings were pouring out, "But no being the stubborn bastard you are you allowed yourself to get sicker… never took my advice," Serena began to circle, "Didn't stop drinking, smoking, ate all the wrong things but yet," she swallowed again, "I can't hate you… you were there for everything, you were my best friend the person I could tell anything too and then you had to go die," Serena wanted to kick the headstone but she couldn't bring herself too, "You never got to see your granddaughter she looks like her father," Serena looked up to the sky, "Brown didn't dominate this time," Serena smiled lightly, "Wish I could just see you last time… I'd let you watch whatever you wanted, I'd let you eat what you wanted, I'd let you do anything if I could just see you," she felt the lump build in her throat again, "Now I'm sounding cliché… just take care of yourself wherever you are." Serena sat down, "You proved life is too short and it just proves that you can't your organs for granted," Serena looked down at the grass, "You can live with one kidney but not a heart… you probably have no idea what I'm on about, I hope when I didn't cry at your funeral I didn't offend you but it seemed unfitting at the time mum had lost the love of her life I needed to be strong for her, it's not that I didn't love you it just didn't seem right," Serena then stood up and looked ahead, "You were laid to rest in Scotland because that's what you would've wanted you would've wanted to be up on the Highlands," Serena didn't noticed Edward walking over, "You obviously didn't intend to die so you didn't draw up a funereal plan… you should be here with mum you two showed what true love is, I showed the complete opposite how come if you and mum were so happy I ended up being so sad?" Serena asked the thin air she didn't expect an answer, "Alone, single mother with a demanding job, I hardly know my daughter I'm never there for her. You and mum were always there showed me the right way I've had her hospital twice for being on drugs, I missed an infection of her appendix removal wound she nearly died, she got Arterial Fibrillation from taking Speed, she came in high on Ecstasy a year ago and all I wanted to do was to get back to theatre," Serena glared at her own selfishness, "How come when I was raised so correctly I've managed to fuck up my daughter dad? How come I had stability and she didn't? How come when I had the best upbringing I managed to mess up my own flesh and blood's?" Serena looked to the sky again, "Anyway enough about me what happened to you was a tragedy but I warned you if you did not look after yourself you'd end up seriously ill. Without a warning or anything your heart just gave in," Serena felt the lump returning, "It was too stressed with keeping your unhealthy body alive! Why didn't you listen to me!?" Serena shouted to the sky Edward jumped when she shouted, "If you had changed your lifestyle you could be here with mum, here with me, here with Eleanor, here on this planet but no you didn't listen to my advice you carried on the way you were. We needed you I needed you," she felt tears creeping out her eyes Edward walked over next to her.

"Serena?" Edward asked, "Maybe you should go… you've said your peace."

"No just one more thing I never forgot you," she looked back down at the headstone, "I just don't think about you that much now but you've never left my thoughts… I try to imagine what you would tell me but I find it hard to remember your voice the strong Scottish accent you had is fading away," Serena felt more tears pouring out, "Mum gives me advice but it's not like your advice or talks," Serena used her free hand to wipe her weakness away, "Anyway I can't stop got patients to fix," Serena looked back down at the headstone, "I hope you're proud of me," she then looked at Edward, "I sound like an idiot."

"No you don't," he handed her a tissue, "Feel better?"

"Not really," Serena dabbed at her eyes, "Do you think he's mad at me for yelling at him?"

"If anything he'd be agreeing with you," Edward said comfortingly, "He knows you're not really mad at him."

"How can you be so sure?" Serena asked Edward she was now looking at him.

"Because he could never stay mad at you," Edward reminded her, "You're right though about life being too short I could drop dead anytime and look how much I missed of Eleanor."

"Don't say that," Serena shivered, "Besides you're here now you can… try and make up for it," Serena moved closer, "Not to make you feel guilty but whenever she watched The Wild Thornburys Movie when the song Father and Daughter came on she would burst into tears."

"Thought you said you weren't going to make me feel guilty?" Edward asked sounding more guilty than ever, "Oh I fucked everything up Serena."

"Can't say I have much sympathy for you," Serena said seriously, "You left me remember?"

"Yeah I know," Edward said sadly.

"Aren't you supposed to be cheering me up?" Serena asked, "I'm the one who is apparently "sad."

Edward walked over to the cliff top edge and Serena followed, "Remember one time we had a picnic here? Then about three wasps invaded it?" Edward asked Serena laughed.

"Yeah I remember," Serena answered and Edward looked at her, "What?"

"Nothing," Edward returned his gaze to the front then he sat down on the grass Serena sat down too, "I'm just taking in what I lost."

"What you made yourself lose," Serena corrected and Edward sighed in agreement, "Anyway past is past."

Edward looked at the sea it was rough and grey boats were being pushed up and under by the waves he was getting quite into watching the sea when he heard a buzzing sound he flicked it away but then he saw Serena jump up, "Stay still," Edward warned but it was too late she had flipped waved her arms around and the creature had stung her on the helix.

"Ouch," Serena said whilst the sting penetrated through her ear, "What was it?" Serena watched as Edward observed her ear.

"It was a bee," Edward answered, "You got any tweezers?"

"In my car in the first aid box," Serena answered her ear was stinging, "Ouch," she said again to herself.

Edward returned with purple gloves on and got the tweezers out, "Sorry if this hurts," Edward caught the stinger then pulled it out, "There," he showed it to her.

"Thanks," Serena said then it got colder, "I should've bought a jacket."

"Women never learn," Edward removed his blazer, "Here," he offered it to her.

"No it's fine," Serena lied she was freezing but she wasn't about to take charity off Edward.

"Like I said women never learn," he placed it around her, "What is it with men jackets?"

"Bigger the better," Serena then realised how that sounded, "Sorry."

"Dirty mind," Edward gave her a joking discipline look, "So how do you feel now?"

"Fine," Serena answered then she looked back over at the headstone, "I sometimes wonder if burying him in Scotland was the best idea."

"He was a proper Scotsman he would've wanted it," Edward looked at the headstone too, "Just remember that."

Serena suddenly found herself leaning her head on Edward's shoulder, "Here's to nineteen years without Dad."

Edward looked down at her, "What was his favourite Fleetwood Mac song?"

"Don't Stop," Serena answered, "Whenever I was sad or upset he would sing: All I want is to see you smile, If it takes just a little while."

"I know you don't believe that it's true I never meant any harm to you," Edward continued the song.

"Don't stop, thinking about tomorrow,Don't stop, it'll soon be here,It'll be, better than before,Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone," Carried on Serena she kept her head on his shoulder looking down at the headstone, "Thank you for coming."

"Like I said anytime," Edward replied they stood staring out to the sea Edward kept his gaze on the boats and water, whilst Serena just looked out at the choppy water breathing in the sea air.

A/N: Think I might have let my own feelings go into Serena's headstone talk lol so sorry if it's a bit depressing tell me what you think xx I'm still deciding on getting Sedward together let me know your opinions (:
