Remember Me?

Home

Clink Clink.

 "Ugh" clink clang, "what the hell!"

 "No!!"

 "Sorry baby Daddy cursed." Slowly I opened my eyes and saw Tony with his back to me cracking eggs into a bowl. To the side of him sat Emery in a butterfly highchair, a smile on her face and bright brown eyes gleaming with innocence and glee.

I smiled and laughed a little which caused Tony to turn and smile at me, "Hey Tony."

 "What's up sleepy head you're the last one up, now get off your butt and come help me cook breakfast." He said, nodding I stretched and walked over to him, "Here you make the French toast, I'm making the eggs and bacon."

 "Anything else boss?"

 "Hmm give her a spoonful of apple sauce for me." He motioned to Emery.

 "Sure thing boss." I saluted and he laughed, my fingers sorted through the bread finding the softest ones and dipping them into the cinnamon and egg batter. Once six slices were soaked and on the griddle I walked in front of Emery as she smiled at me, her eyes gleamed as she looked at me.

 "Thenna!"

I jumped back, "Tony she..she somewhat said my name!!"

 "Yeah Emma makes sure she knows everyone, you're one of the first names she learned."

 "Really" I spooned some applesauce in her mouth as she laughed at me, "how would she know my name?"

 "Emma makes sure Emery knows who you are, there's at least a hundred pictures of you on Emery's wall."

That made me freeze my heart quickened, "She does?"

 "You wanna look?" He asked and I nodded, "The door at the end of the hall on the left."

I nodded and gave Emery one last spoonful before heading to the hall, I followed his instructions and came to the little pink door and pushed it open. It was cute from the small brown crib to the butterfly pattern all over the room, there was a rocking chair, dressers, and shelf full of teddy bears. I giggled and then turned to see the wall Tony had been talking about, my eyes widened as feet led me to the wall.

There were at least one hundred pictures there, each with their own different frame and faces everywhere. Tony was in many of the pictures, either kissing Emma or with both of them smiling. There were pictures of Emma while she was pregnant, they were lined up each one with a tag realing how many months she was. Her belly got bigger in each photo but her smile was much bigger then her stomach in each one. Then there was pictures of Emma at the hospital holding a small red form with brown eyes I knew was Emery. All these pictures made me smile yet made my heart clench knowing I would never be apart of any of these memories.

One picture caught my eye, it was me and Emma. There were so many pictures of me, me with Zack and Emma, some had Andi in them, even Cory. But the purple frame in the middle it held only two faces, Emma and I. The one of us on our fifteenth birthday, the photo she had taken with her the day she left. Tears formed in my eyes as I lifted it off the wall, my fingers traced out faces and the bright smiles on them. I gripped the picture to my chest as the tears fell.

“That's my favorite one."

I spun around see Emma her cheeks still went from her shower and a smirk on her face, “It's mine too."

Hey eyes found mine and her lip began to quiver, my tears fell as we ran at each other. My arms tightened around her form as hers gripped mine, our tears were all the emotions the both of us had been piling up since that night and we were finally letting them out.
