Emily's POV

A while passes until I finally decide to go back home. I didn't bother to check the time, it was pouring rain and I wasn't going to get my phone even more wet then it probably already is. I sighed and sat up right from the tree I was leaning on.

''Goodbye, Tod'' I said to the gravestone. I walked slowly to the gates and opened it. With one last look at the cemetery, I left. I started thinking. Thinking about how me and Tod got together. How in love we were. All the good times we had. and then, one memory came that I really didn't want to re-live. THAT night.

''No, please'' I whispered to myself. It was too late, the memory had already started playing in my mind. I cried as I walked home. I don't want to re-live that night. I can't.

In a good 10 minutes I was home. I didn't bother to try to dry myself off. What's the point anyways? As soon as I walked through that door, I was greeted with a furious mother, a concerned Harry and some confused boys.

''You have some serious nerve walking away from me young lady!'' mom said first, looking madder then ever.

''I needed a break'' I mumbled.

''A break?!'' she asked, astonished. I snapped my head up and sent her a glare

''Yes! A break! Something you never give me! You always give me a hard time!'' I shouted

''You have nothing going on in your life! How can you possibly need a break?!'' she shouted back, instantly covering her mouth in regret. Too late mother, you already said it

''I have nothing going in? My brother left me, alone, with you. Witch by the way, thanks a whole lot Harry!'' I started, turning around and giving him a look.

''YOU are barely home! Gemma is gone!'' I continued my rant.

''Did your boyfriend die by pushing you out of the way from a car? NO! Are you the reason dad left? NO! How dare you say I have nothing going on in my life!'' I shouted, tears falling freely from my face. But I didn't stop there.

''You knew how much he meant to me! You knew how much I loved him! You cried with me that night! You were there for me! You said you understood! It hasn't even been a damn year! And if you say I have nothing going on in my life then you obviously haven't been around enough, because I sure do have a lot going on! And you are absolutely no help!'' I shouted. She opened her mouth but I cut her off

''Have a good trip mother. Cause I won't see you until you come back'' I said calmly as I walked upstairs and slammed my door shut, locking the door and sinking to the floor, crying. Then there was a soft knock on my door

''Who is it?'' I asked, my vice raspy from crying, and I was still wearing the wet sweater.

''Come on Em, open up, please. It's me, Hazza'' he said. I sighed

''Harry please, go away'' I said as I got up and put my phone on my dresser. Surprisingly it was not broken

''Em please open up'' he said.

''No'' I said as I looked at a picture of me and Tod

''Please'' he begged. I sighed and walked to the door, the picture in hand. I un locked the door and walked to the bed, staring at the picture of us and cried again. Harry must have heard the door un lock, because he came in and shut the door, locking it behind him. Silently, he walked to my bed and sat beside me and looked over my shoulder. He sighed and gently took the picture from my hand, placing it beside him.

''Em'' he started. I looked at him thru the tears and he gave me a sympathetic look. He opened his arms and I crawled onto his lap as he hugged me tightly.
