Chapter One.

The melody filled the chapel and everyone was drowned in the silence of saddness, Lillian felt her mum grip her sholder as photos of her older brother filled the tv screen that was placed on the wall above the white ceasket. Lillian shrug her mum off not wanting to be comforted, she looked around the chapel and was disgusted in the amount of people sheading tears for someone they threw under the rug. The music stopped and the man called Lillian's name to say a few words. Lillian hadn't cried since it happened she didn't believe what was happening. She took a deep breath and went up to the stand. Everyone stared and it made her feel out of place, her family did not fail to make her feel uncomfortable. She tapped the microphone and cleared her thoart.

"I'm not going to say me and Alex were extremely close, I wish I could say we were but I can't. We grew apart as we grew older, but one thing I can say about him was that he never failed to be there for me. When I was eleven I was afraid of the dark, or what might be lurking beyound it... we had a black out and I remember hiding in the middle of the staircase to scared to go up and to scared to go down. I cried. Than out of no where Alex came out from down stairs in a scoober suit and announced that he was Aqua Man. I think it was than where I reliased I could rely on him to scare away my demons. I lost my older brother but I also lost that person I believed could help me through anything. Thank you." Lillian noticed everyone's tears and sat back down, music played again as the curtains closed to hide away Alex so we could never see him again.

"Good bye" Lillian whispered.

At the end of the ceremony everyone attended a lunch to celebrate the life of Alex Grove. Lillian sat staring at the forest just beyound the graves, people would think it looked creepy but Lillian saw beauty in things most others didn't.

"Ah, child. There you are" Lillian turned to find her mum coming to sit next to her. Lillian breathed in and looked at the sky.

"It always rains when we go to funerals" Lillian could smell the freash droplets falling from the sky and craved to lay in the middle of the graveyard to feel the cold water hit her body.

"I know" Her mother sighed "Its quite depressing if you ask me". Lillian stared at her mum.

"I for one I actually find it beautiful, its like the angles are crying for our loss" Lillian still stared at her mum.

"The angles should rejoice, they have a perfect boy up there now. God wanted him otherwise he wouldn't of taken him" Tears rolled down her eyes and Lillian in response rolled hers.

"Mum..." Lillian's mum sniffed and looked at her "God dosnt exist and if he did he didn't 'take' Alex, Alex committed suicide. He left us, he wasn't taken, if he was taken he wouldn't of had a choice but he did he had a choice and he chose to leave" Lillian didn't know why she was getting so worked up, she figured it's because all these people talked about how it's going to be okay and how stuff like this just happens. She just wanted her brother. She walked away from her mum and sighed "I'm sorry mum, I just don't know what to do." Lillian's mum didn't reply scared she would say the wrong thing "I'm going to drive home mum, I'll be there later though I'm just going to clear my head. I love you" Lillian kissed her mother's head and walked towards her car. She turned one more time and a tear rolled down her face.
