It was the day of Will's funeral. The weather fitted Amelia's mood, as it had been raining heavily all day. It was currently 12:30, and Amelia had just finished getting ready, dressed in a black dress and heels. she felt nothing inside, only numb. she had left all her feelings out in the month it had been since Will had died, since it had taken a while to sort everything out. Issac had kept to his promise, and looked after her for the whole time, making sure she was ok. She always pretended that she was, although she was never truly going to be the same ever again. Amelia had prepared something to say at Will's funeral, but couldn't read it aloud without crying. She had read it to Issac, who also cried whilst hugging Amelia. 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Everyone was crying. a lot of people had turned up to the graveyard, not many that Amelia knew, other than the rest of Will's friends, and his grandparents who she had met before. it was almost time for Amelia to speak, and as she stepped up to the front, she felt even more nervous. "Hi.for those of you who don't know me, my name is Amelia, and i was Will's girlfriend. He was an amazing person, even though he annoyed me 90% of the time, i loved him a lot. He was the first boy i ever truly loved, and I'll never be the same without him. He was loved by so many people, and before i met him, i never really felt like i belonged anywhere or mattered to anyone. he gave me something people wait years for in a matter of months, and i will forever be grateful for the boy who taught me how to live, despite the fact that he was dying. " Amelia was crying by the time she had finished, along with Issac, Ben, Emma and most of the other guests. 

Will Hearte may not longer be physically there, but he would forever remain in Amelia's heart, but no matter how much she wanted him to, he would never come back.
