Chapter 62 - With All My Heart

Connors P.O.V -

I watched as brad pulled up his tie and looked in the mirror . The black suit reflected his emotions as his hands shook and then fell to his sides . He looked dazed as silence fell and he stood there , swaying looking at his reflection . I stared at my shoes as I tapped a tune on my hands . Brad needed someone to keep him company but he didn't want to talk . I looked at what he was wearing as I followed his gaze across the mirror

His black shoes reflected off the sunlight as it hit the mirror and bounced back off . He was dressed all in black . He had a black blazer , a black waistcoat and black trousers . We all had the same on . But we didn't feel like going out . Today was Aisha's funeral . It was just me and brad at the moment , the boys were coming in ten minutes and we were meeting the girls there . I heard a knock on the doorbell as I looked at brad in the mirror . He gave me a nod and I pushed myself off the bed . I quietly walked out the room as I closed the door slowly

I walked down the stairs as I got to the door and unlocked it . I opened the door as tris and James stood outside . It was exactly the same inside as out . Silence . Nobody knew what to say . But everybody wanted to say something . They stepped inside the house as they followed me upstairs and I lead them to brads room . I placed my hand on the doorknob as James pulled my arm

" how's he doing " James whispered as I stared at the blank door

" not good " I replied as tris nodded an I opened the door .

Brad was still stood in the same position as he stared blankly at his reflection. The three of us silently walked in as we all sat on the bed . Brad turned around and acknowledged that tris and James were here by giving them a nod . Nobody said or did anything . Silence was the only thing surrounding us . James looked at his watch as he tapped it and gave me a nudge . It was nearly time for us to go and the girls should be arriving soon

The doorbell rang as I walked back down the stairs and three girls stood at the door . They looked beautiful in their black dresses as they turned round and gave me a small smile . But I couldn't help but think there should have been four . You could still faintly see the scars on Emily's necks and around her ankles but they had nearly gone . I let the girls in as they made they're way upstairs , I shut the door as I turned round and saw Emily had waited for me . I gave her a quick kiss on the cheek as I stepped forward . She caught my hand as I turned round

" how are you doing " she asked as I looked into her eyes . I could see she had been crying already as she shook an held tightly onto the edge of my fingers

" brads not doing too good " I replied as I zoned out and a small smile spread across her lips

" Connor , I said how are YOU doing " she let out a sigh as I laughed a little

" I'm ok , it's just hard " I sighed and she stepped forward

" I know " she sniffed as I stray tear left her eye and bounced down her cheek . I carefully wiped it off with my thumb as I cupped he cheeks and a tear fell down my cheek . She laughed as I kissed the top of her forehead and took her hand in mine . I lead her back up the stairs and into brads room .

I stopped outside brads door and let go of Emily's hand. I nodded to her as we silently pushed the door open . We made a promise to ourselves that on the day of Aisha's funeral we wouldn't do any couple things as we didn't want to make brad feel left out and miss Aisha anymore . The girls all went over and hugged brad as me , tris and James went and sat down on the bed . I looked at the plain room as I scanned all the belongings . All Aisha's hair and makeup was still all around the room and her side of the be was still made . Un touched
