The funeral pt.2

James' pov
We drive to the funeral and i see everyone in a line both sides of the road, saluting to my dad but the people that stand up the most is the next step and aria! I see people in their army uniforms, the funeral car stops and me,piper and my mum get out. Piper and my mum walk over to the rest of the people, 7 other people that I know from my dads work walk over and help me lift up my dad, we walks over to the burying place and we put him in the burying plot, i begin to cry as I stand over my dad, i hug piper I look at noah who is crying too! I pass everyone a white rose, except michelle, emily, richelle, Amanda, Giselle, Chloe, stephanie,eldon,west,piper,Amy,noah and aria everyone from the next step,aria me,piper and my mum have red roses like my dad asked see the reason everyone from the next step and aria have white roses is because my dad considered them family and looked after each of them like they were his kids! Everyone puts there white roses in first, i walk up with piper and my mum and we all put our roses in, everyone else puts their roses in. We walks into the church, "as Jordan asked in his will, will noah Jackson erlick please say a few words?"my dads boss asks, i look at noah confused, noah walks up "a lot of you will know him from the army, or family, see to me and the rest of the people of the next step he wasn't just one of our teams parents but he was ALL of our dads he looked after us, he cared for each and everyone of us! He was brave,strong,and so incredibly kind to all of us just like his kids!I actually remember that he was the first person I came out to and I was so scared for his reaction but he just hugged me and so for that I say thank you Jordan"noah says making me cry even harder. Richelle walks up "hi! See what my friend noah said is true he was kind hearted and so sweet! I mean there was times I felt like he was my family more then my real parents and he did look after all of us so Jordan I promise to look after piper and james just like you looked after me"richelle says. After everyone said something we walk outside, i look for piper but I see her hugging noah. I walk over to them "come on pipes let's go"i say softly "yeah"piper says softly "james?"noah asks

"Yeah noah?"i ask "how you doing?"noah asks "I'm fine"i lie "I'm not stupid james!"noah says "i said I'm fine!"i say looking at the floor "and I said I'm not stupid!"noah says looking at me "okay so maybe I'm upset about my dad,and us but just leave me alone!"i say about to leave, noah grabs my wrist,pulling me back. Noah kisses me quickly "you don't have to be upset about us anymore" noah says with a small smile, "really?"i ask "yeah we can talk about us when you want too"noah says softly
