PERFECT (emerson barrett x reader)

14. dancing with tears in my eyes

Isla's pov
We had all decided that we would go to the cinema to see the queen film bohemian rhapsody so we bought the tickets and watched the film.
Afyer we came out and went to joes ice cream parlour across the highstreet.
My phone lit up suddenly and all i could do was read in silence and in dispare as i realised what was written and i turned my phone off and just cried infront of everyone at the table.
'Hey isla whats wrong why are you crying?' Em said with hurt in his voice
'My auntie just texted me ... my parents were involved in a massive car crash and they didnt make it out alive' i sobbed into emersons arm while the others consoled me with kind words. We went home then and emerson and i went upstairs to boon two tockets to england so that i could sort out my parents funeral arrangements and the house.

Time skip to the next morning

I woke up with sore eyes and a headache from crying so much.
The flight we have leaves in an hour so we needed to get going. We both got dressed and made our way to the airport.

Skip the plane ride

We arranged for a airport taxi to drop us at my house. And as we pulled up outside i got choked up but still satyed stronv because i dodnt want emerson to think that i was too weak or vulnerable.
I walked around the house and the reinforcement papers were spread out on the kitchen island and i signed them but emerson played the song the light behind your eyes by my chemical romance and we were both dancing with tears in our eyes around the room. i went to take one last look at my parents old bedroom.
On the bedside tables were my mum and dads glasses next to puctures of us all together an di sobbed into emersons arm as he consoled me and got a little choke up too. We left after a while and then my auntie invited me over for a few hours.

Aunties house (just leaving)

'Thankyou auntie joe for letting us stay for dinner it was lovely to see you again'
'Yes you too isla and emerson im so sorry again and see you on monday at the funeral'

Skip to monday the funeral day

The funeral ceremony was veautiful and was undergone by my uncle while my auntie weeled in the corner alone and affraid. I was crying but still strong and resilient because i didnt want to upset anybody else too much.
Going home today

We finally get to return home back to los angeles and see the others again

Skip the long plane ride

Sebastian and remington were there waiting for us to get back at the airport and they hugged us both as we walked back to the car to go home.

Back home sweet home

As soon as i got home i went straight o bed because the jetlag was draining me like mad. Emerson later joined me about an hour after i went uo because he was busy talking to the others about what had happened that weekend and even though i was there with him and knew every last detail that he explained i couldnt help but earwig on the conversation.
Finally.. i fell asleep in emersons arms.
