Charlotte's POV

I put my hair up and looked at myself in the mirror. I was wearing a long black skirt, a black tank top with a black cardigan. I wasn't wearing any makeup, I didn't need it running down my face. I was sure today would be a tearful day. I took a deep breathe and walked downstairs. My mum was sitting at the table already crying and my dad was silent. We had barely talked to each other for the past two weeks. Today would be no different. I grabbed the keys and started the car. I sat in the back seat and waited. I pulled out my iPod and put my headphones in. I pressed play and soon the beetles album was playing. I sighed and closed my eyes, trying to stay calm. In just 2 months my whole life had changed. Some for the better, some for the worst. I felt a few tears spill out of my eyes but quickly wiped them away. I wasn't going to cry, not yet. I suddenly felt like we were moving. I opened my eyes to see my dad driving. I closed my eyes and got lost in my music.

I held her hand and just looked at her. A tear streamed down my cheek. My sister, My twin gone. I squeezed her hand still wishing she would squeeze back, and kissed her cheek. "I love you Anna" I only had a few minutes until people would start arriving. I tried not to cry, I was trying to be strong. She always lived life to the fullest. I had been given a second chance at life, but she hadn't. I made a promise to her, and myself, that I was going to live like her. Never take any second for granted.

I heard footsteps from behind and turned to see Krista walking towards me. She sat  down and grabbed my other hand. A few tears were spilling out of her eyes.  "Is your speech ready?" She whispered. I nodded. "Is yours?" She nodded. We sat in silence just staring at anna. She was so still. I held back my tears as did krista. She was always the strong one, I wanted to be strong like her. But I just couldn't right now. I broke out into tears. She hugged me. "I promise we will be ok. Maybe not today, or tomorrow. But we will be. Im always here for you okay?" She whispered. "Thanks, love ya." I whispered and let go of her. My gaze shifted back to my sister. "Love ya too".  Two workers then came in to move the coffin downstairs. I hugged Krista and we walked down to the funeral. 

The funeral was almost over and everyone was bawling the majority of it. We had gotten to the point where the selected family members and friends were to say their short speech. My mum and Dad went first. Everyone was sobbing. My mum had to stop everyone and a while to chock back tears.

"A mother should never have to know the pain of out living her child." 

That was the one line my mother said that stuck out to me. She almost lost me and now she lost Anna. I knew that she had been through a lot. She was my hero for that.

After my mum and dad my aunt went up. Followed by a few cousins. Victoria went up aswell. She kept it short because she was trying not to cry. Krista gripped my hand. She was about to go and say her speech. The priest got up and thanked Victoria. She came and sat beside Jai and quietly cried into his sholder."Now i'd like to invite one of Anna's best friends, Miss Krista to come and say a few words." She sighed and walked up to the microphone.

"Anna was an amazing person. Id like to start by saying that. She was Smart, funny, good hearted and loyal. Some recent incidents led people to believe other wise. I however would like to tell you that is not the case. This beautiful girl was an amazing friend. She died... Saving Luke and I. I am forever grateful for her. If I could go back and switch our places I would in a heartbeat. Anna you will be forever missed and loved. The only reassurance I have is that you are in a better place. And I hope to see you someday."

She started bawling when she mentioned why anna died. Everyone else was tearing up. Krista came and sat back beside me. She squeezed my hand. The priest thanked Krista and began talking. Krista squeezed my hand and I looked at her. She hugged me and I gave her a half smile. She saw right through it but turned back to the priest. "Finally I would like miss Charlotte to come and say some words about her sister." I stood up and slowly made my way to the mic. I was already crying when I began.
