Logan's POV:

I go into the bathroom and get dressed. Im dreading today. There's going to be so many tears. So many heartbreaks. I invited just about everyone she's ever met. Tory, Liam, the boys, my parents, Jake and team 10 and some others. I think Daniel has taken it the worst. I just try to look at the positives. At least she won't be hurt anymore. But when I think that I start crying. Because I start crying over anything that reminds me of her. I feel a tug on my pant leg. I look down and see Noah in his black tux.

"You ready bud?" I ask. He shakes his head, which was the answer I expected.

We get to the place where the wake's going to be held. I walk in and see her casket. I tell Noah to go sit down with my parents as I walk up to Emma. She looks so peaceful. They put on a dress that made her look like a princess. Her makeup was done perfectly. I reach down and touch her face. Her soft, beautiful face. Tears stream down and fall onto her. I feel a hand on my shoulder.

"Son, come on. Guests are arriving." My dad says. I nod and wipe the tears away.

Daniel POV:

I put on my black tuxedo. It's the one I wore on one of our dates. I comb my hair to the side, just like Emma always wanted me to. I try to hold the waterworks in, but I cry anyway. Jack comes up behind me and hugs me.

"I don't want to go." I say.

"Daniel, you don't mean that...you want to go, you just don't want to show your emotions in front of everyone. But it's a funeral. Everyone's going to be crying." Jack explains.

"I know. I just...I miss her so much." I sob into his shoulder.

"I know, I know."

We get to the place where the wake is being held. It's at a beautiful church.

"Hey boys." Logan greets. I can tell he's been crying.

"Hey Logan." Jonah says and hugs him. The rest of us do so as well.

"Well, come on in. We will be starting shortly." He says and directs us into the sanctuary. I see the casket that Emma's in. My whole body freezes.

"Daniel, you can see her. Go ahead." Logan says. I gulp and walk up to her body. I automatically start bawling my eyes out.

"Oh Emma...you look so beautiful. Gorgeous. I don't know if you can hear me or not, but I miss you. More than anything. I wish I could kiss you again. Touch you. I'll never stop loving you Emma. Not one bit. I'm not sure how long...it's going to make me to move on. Right now it doesn't feel like I ever will." I cry. This girl right here, the one I'm staring at, is the reason I wake up every morning. I made a promise to her. To move on. To keep performing. And I'm going to.

"I am. I'm going to keep your promise. It's about the only thing I have left of you. Other than this." I say and pull out the guitar pick she got me. The one that says 'I plucking love you.' I hold it to my heart for a second, kiss it, then put it in Emma's hand. "Now you have something of me." I whisper.

"Daniel, come sit down, it's starting." Zach says and grabs my arm.

Logan gets up to the podium.

"Thank you to everyone that came. Emma would've loved that all of you were here. Um..where do I start? Emma was a beam of sunshine. She motivated everyone to smile and be happy. She knew that life was limited. She knew that no one can live forever. And..and that's a lot to take in for a sixteen year old girl." Logan cries. "She didn't deserve what happened to her. She was such a good girl. I loved her with all of my heart. And now she's gone...I'm sorry I can't go on..." He finishes. "Daniel? You want to say anything?"
