Happier Than Ever (Adoption story, 3rd book)

Carry Me in Your Arms

BRENDON POV
What even happened? I sit there in my chair thinking.

What have I done? I didn't really do anything besides expressing my concerns.

Ughh, I'll probably let her cool down and eventually she'll come around I hope.

"What the hell did you do?" Sarah storms into the studio.

"Great, another person. I swear to you I did nothing, besides express my emotions to her but I may have been a little dramatic. Why?" I ask Sarah.

"Emmy just stormed out of the house and she drove off with the car, and now Awsten is trying to get in contact with her but nothing, so he's tracking her down and following her" Sarah tells me.

"Oh. I knew she was gonna run away. It was bound to happen" I say, as I agreesively push my hair out of my face.

"Anyways, I need to make sure you're fine and you need to finish packing so we can leave in the morning on time. I'm sure she just needed her space so she'll come around. She loves you deeply B and I know you know that" Sarah tells me walking out.

I follow Sarah out into the house and into the room as I start to pack my stuff.

EMMY POV
I can't believe it, he's doing it again. It's getting repetitive and annoying, but what can I say he's my loving father and all he wants is to protect and I understand where he's coming from, based on recent events.

But I don't know, I just need a break from this to take a breather or so.

I hop in the car and just drove to the forest that was two hours away. As I come across a stop light. I wait for it to turn green, as I wait I see a familiar car pull up besides me. They roll down their window while, I have mine rolled down as well and shouts.

"WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU GOING? Em talk to me!" I recognize that voice and it's Awsten. I didn't want to really answer him, so I just rolled up the window and turned up the volume even more.

I continue to drive, until I find a parking space on the road and parked there. I turn off the car's engine and walk over to an open area and sat down dangling my foot off the cliff.

"There you are Emmy. Hey is everything okay?" Awsten asks as he sit next to me. I just ignore him.

"Look, whatever Brendon said back there I'm sure he was just being protective and yea he does get a little dramatic at times, but what can you say, all he wants is his little girl safe because he failed multiple times already" Awsten says as he lays a hand on my shoulder.

"I see your point, but I don't want to leave yet. It's just sometimes it too much" I tell Awsten, as I rest my head on my his shoulder.

"I know, I know. But I don't know if I should tell you this, but at the end of tour, that night where we found you in the parking lot and Brendon came, he whispered to me to take care of you when he's gone. And that he was gonna go jump infront and sacrifice himself for you, but I told him No and to stay back because you wouldn't want him to do that" He tells me as he pulls me for a hug.

I get up and make my way into the woods, leaving Awsten behind.

I hear his footsteps running after me.

"Woahh, where are you going babe?" I hear Awsten asking me.

"I'll explain later, but you are welcome to come" I say as I start to walk faster down the hill and into the woods more.

Suddenly I see a familiar cabin near by. Then I start sprinting towards it. I can hear Awsten huffing and puffing after me. Suddenly, I come to a stop. I push the bushes away and suddenly it reveals a door.
