Emma's P.O.V
I watched as the casket was lowered into the ground, I tried to fight the tears, but I couldn't help it. I never got to say goodbye. I said a few words and yet, I didn't prepare anything, I simply said the truth.
I turned to see that Jack's parents were here, they were quietly sobbing and wiping their tears.
When they saw me, they walked towards me, more tears falling."Oh Emma, darling" Kristin says, engulfing me in a hug as does John.
She looks at me with pain in her eyes,
"You can get through this, I know you can, your parents loved you more then anything else in this world, you were everything to them, you still are. So please, wipe those tears and stay happy, because when you're sad, they're sad and when you're happy they're happy" she says, wiping my tears.She then stops as she sees something behind me,
"Jack? Boys?" She says as I turn around now to see Jack, Logan and the rest of the boys here, in black attire.
I look down, half smiling as she greets them.
I look at Jack who's now walking towards me with tears, I look up to see us face to face."I'm so sor-" he starts but I cut him off by lunging myself forwards, wrapping my arms around him tightly as he wraps his arms around my waist protectively.
"It hurts Jack" I say truthfully. I'm not going to lie, I don't have a sob story. I had a happy childhood, a happy life, it wasn't perfect, but it was close, my parents loved me and I loved them. But me being the selfish and weird kid, I wanted something more, I wanted to go to L.A and follow my dreams and now my parents had to go through this.I never learnt to cope with loss and it's way harder then I thought it would be.
"It'll be fine, they're okay, they're happy if you're happy remember that princess" he soothes and reassures.
He wiped my tears and let me go to see my parents grave one last time.I put my flowers down on their grave,
"I love you Mum and Dad. I love you so much" I croak out and I turn back around to Jack who was waiting for me with his arm out.
He draped his arm around me and led me back to the car, my head on his shoulders.We drove back to my house to collect my things then back to the airport to catch our flight.
We were waiting for our flight to be announced,
"Emma, you need to eat something" Jack says and I shake my head, refusing."Emma. Eat." Logan says giving me a serious look and holding out food.
I sigh and take the food from him, I can't say no to him, he's my big brother.
Finally, after eating, our flight is announced and we board the plane back to L.A.***Time Skip***
We are back in Logan's apartment and Logan said we can all stay over considering it was pretty late.
I took the extra bedroom that I usually do along with Jack and cuddled up to him, my head resting on his chest and his arms were wrapped around me protectively.I couldn't sleep, my thoughts took me elsewhere and Jack caught on.
He began softly singing just to see you smile which caused a smile to come out of me that had been gone for a long time. It was weird for me considering I'm practically smiling 24/7.Slowly, I fell asleep to the sound of an angel.
***a few days later***
I opened my eyes to the bright L.A sun peeking through my blinds.
It had been a few days and I was feeling a lot better, I realised that I should be grateful for what I do have, an amazing boyfriend and best friends and someone to play an older brother role like Logan. Most people don't have that, and I've learnt to cope with loss though I will say, it's hard.I got up and ate breakfast whilst editing this weeks video which was me just basically pouring my heart out to my viewers and being honest with them about the situation and also letting them know I'm okay.
I then got up and brushed my teeth, showered and got ready.Outfit:
Hair and Makeup:
I then left to go to Logan's apartment, upon entrance I frowned to see the boys weren't there.
"Sorry bub, they're recording all day" Logan said and I smiled,
"It's cool, I wanna spend time with you" I say making him smile.We filmed a video for my channel in which I did Logan's makeup. I ended up crying of laughter on the floor then sadly realised that he's a better looking girl then I am. Oh well.
We wrapped up the video and as I packed away my equipment, all of a sudden, I began relentlessly coughing, my lungs were burning and my chest aching as Logan assisted me."It's not a cold, I'm making a doctors appointment" Logan says worriedly, picking up his phone.
"No Logan" I retaliate,
"Nope" he says, "But-" I protest but to no avail as he cuts me off,
"You're going to that doctors appointment. End of story" he insists stubbornly.I sigh in defeat as he talks to the receptionist at the hospital about making an appointment.
As he finishes he comes up to me worriedly,
"Was your chest aching or anything like that?" He asks, I shake my head lying as he nods."You should eat something" he says and I refuse,
"I'm not hungry" I say,
"Em, you haven't eaten since breakfast" he says a flash of extreme worry evident on his face."Logan. I'm fine. I just lost my appetite it's no big deal" I reassure and he nods yet he still doesn't seem satisfied.
I then go up to the guest room where I usually sleep in and doze off.A/N:
