*Emma's pov*
I'm sooo glad that Jess is here. I haven't met anyone so supportive in my life. She's taken time out of her work for a nobody like me. She's the most amazing person and I want to call her mine.
It's harder said than done though. I know my grandma approved of it but what about everyone else? I'm not meaning my family or friends now, but the heartbeats. Most of them would want me dead. I'd always said as a heartbeat that if Jess ever got in a relationship I'd end up crying. If they were happy though, I'd be happy eventually just because Jess would be happy. However I know that some heartbeats aren't like that and want Jess all to themselves.
After watching The Lady and The Tramp somehow it was eleven o'clock and Paul and Elaine had arrived. We had a quick lunch and said our goodbyes. Jess promised me and grandma that we'd be back soon.
The car ride would have been silent if I didn't have to give Jess the directions to my nana's house. I was so excited to see her. I had a dream not too long ago, maybe about a month ago, where she died. I don't even know how, but it wasn't anything to do with Karl. It felt so real that I woke up crying. I haven't spoken to her since so there's always that little voice in my head saying she's not here anymore.
As Jess turned right into the familiar street I couldn't help but smile. This whole place filed me with happy memories. I looked over at Jess who had tears in her eyes. I honestly felt deflated. I knew this would be too much for Jess. I've got so many memories here, and most of them good, that they cancel out the incident. Jess however, has only one memory of this place and that is the incident.
She pulled into the drive and was about to climb out of the car but I stopped her again. "Jess, if you don't want to do this you don't have too. I can ring you when I want picking up if you like?" This must be really hard for Jess.
“No it’s fine. I don’t want to leave you on your own with your family. No offence.” Jess sighed and looked away.
“Just because you said no offence doesn’t make it not offensive.” Jess swung her head around to face me and I poked my tongue out to show her I was joking earning me a playful punch to the arm. Don’t tell her this but it kind of hurt…
“No, seriously now Em, do you know how much of a chance there is of your dad being there? I just… I don’t want you to get hurt.” That’s typical Jess. Always worrying about other people. She really needs to put herself first for once.
“Jess, everyone dies yeah? But not everyone li-”
“Who told you that?” Jess cut me off.
“My brain. Why?” I asked, Jess smirked and didn’t say anything. “Oh my God! Hashtag Album Two!?” I asked and again, no answer just a bigger smirk that was slowly turning into a grin. “It is isn’t it?” Jess finally nodded and I couldn’t help but let out a squeal, “Anyway… Where was I? Oh yeah. Everyone dies, but not everyone lives, we’ve got to take life as it comes or it isn’t worth living. I’m not going to let my dad stop me from seeing my family, they mean way too much to me.” I said firmly. Jess nodded and half smiled. “Everything is going to be fine Jess, I promise.” I reassured her. “Ready to go?” She flashed me her smile and jumped out of the car. “Well I take that as a yes.”
I leant against my crutches as we waited outside the front door. My foot is a lot better today so I don't need to rely on my crutches as much. It doesn’t look as if anyone else is here. I was holding Jess’ hand and she was shaking like a leaf. I hated knowing the fact Jess was making herself do all of this for me. Don’t get me wrong, I’m grateful but she’ll be the one to get hurt if she carries on like this. “Jessica?” I heard my nana’s voice say. My heart skipped a beat. She’s alive. We’re all alive and living.
