My Life With The Anderson's

Chapter 4

Well hello.....here you go.

Thats Isaac by the way.

'I hate funerals' says everyone. I lay in bed staring at my ceiling with Aiden sitting on the couch, on his phone their still babysitting me or some shit . The funeral is in 2 days. I have to drive back by tomorrow. "You okay?" Aiden asks with a soft voice. I stare at my ceiling not responding. These boys are the most annoying people I have ever met, except for Kaden. They watch my every move 24/7, I have no privacy at all and it fucking sucks. 

I got up from the bed and walked out of the room, not a second later I hear Aiden behind me still on his phone. I went down the stairs and into the living room where I see Aaron, the twins and Edric sitting on the couches with a 3 blondes. "Who are you?" One of them asked giving me a dirty look. "No one." I murmured walking past her. She turned and grabbed my arm hard, "I asked you a question?" She said bitterly. The guys were now staring at us. "And I answered it." I said pulling my arm away but her grip was to hard. I sighed. "Bella let go of her." Edric said still staring at the TV and not giving anyone attention. "Who is she?" She asked him. "Last chance Bella...Let go of her." He said still staring at the TV. Bella tensed up and with one last hard squeeze she let go of my arm. 

There was a purple bruise already forming, I rubbed it and without a word I walked out of the living room and into the kitchen followed by Aiden of course. He walked by me, opened the door to the freezer and got out an ice pack. "Sit." He said pointing at the seats, I sat not because I needed the ice pack which my did but because he sounded serious. He took my hand and looked at it, it was dark purple. "How is this even possible?" He asked, I shrugged and pulled my arm away from him and took the ice pack from him and put it on my arm. "Pizza should be here in 10 minutes." He said sitting down next to me. A few minutes passed and then the phones rang, "Alana!" Edric yelled from the living room. I paled, what if it was Kris? Please let it be Josh, Please. I walked into the living room with the ice pack still on my arm. "This girl wants to talk to you." Edric said eyeing my arm. I took the phone and held my breath.

 "Hello?" I said still tense. "Yo girllll guess whoooo??" I heard the voice of the one and only Cori. "Holy shit...No way!" I said into the phone and took the phone with both hands while the ice pack fell into Edric's lap. "Bitch you guessed it!" She screamed into the phone. I laughed and walked past Edric who was still looking at my arm with an angry expression and sat on the stairs. "I miss you so much, you know that?" Cori said laughing into the phone. "Yeah sorry I'm 8 hours away babe." I said with a frown. "Yeah I heard....are you..ummm...coming back for the....funeral?" She hesitated but said it anyway. "Yeah I'm gunna drive back in a few hours." I said my voice cracking. "Babe I'm here you've got people who are about you, you know?" She said matter of factly. "Like Kaden?" I asked in a whisper. Cori went quiet. "He's changed." She said back. I can't believe she's been talking to his. "You've been talking to him??" I whisper yelled into the phone. "I swear Alana he's changed and he's been asking about you." She rushed. "Don't tell him anything." I said back. "I know I won't." She said in a whisper as the doorbell rang. "Well I guess that's your cue I'll keep in touch bye love you." She said. "Love you too." I said and hung up.

 I went and opened the open the door to find the pizza guy holding 4 large boxes of pizza. Aiden came from behind me and took the pizza from the guy and handed them to me, he paid and closed the door in the guy's face. "Thank you." I said, I hope the pizza guy heard me. "Come on." Aiden said taking two pizza boxes and walking to the living room. Edric stood up from his seat and came over to me he took the pizzas and put the ice pack on my arm.

We didn't stay there very long, not even overnight. Once I told Jenna when the funeral was she insisted on going, so the two of drove back just in time for the funeral. It was all a blur, I don't remember most of it. Lots of people were there, I didn't even know half of them. I saw Cori there we talked for a while then said our goodbyes. Part of the reason why I don't remember much of it was because I probably got high 4 times that day. I wore a white dress. Natalie hated how people wore black at funerals and made me promise to wear white if...she ever died.
