My happy endings (A My Chemical Romance story), chapter 13
We arrived at the cold graveyard where we met the man (priest) responsible for holding the funeral. Six ringbearers that was already at the graveyard, pulling the edge of the coffins out of the black hearse and begining to walk it to my parents resting place. The priest lead at the front of the coffins and everyone else was walkng behind my coffins.
The rain poured down from the dark, cloudy, grey skies and bounced off the coffins. The hearse drove away through the graveyard gates followed my the limo.
We reached two deep, 6 foot, wholes planted in the middle of the dark grave stones. We all stood around the deep holes as the cermony began.
"Days ago, in the early winter, the tragic death of Jenny and Darren Brennen occured. Such caring people spitfully murdered, what ever did they do? Today we're all gathered on this cold, rainy day, celebrating and remembering the lifes of these people," the priest said.
I was crying and had a strong need to cut but I shouldn't. I looked up at Gerard who gave me a small smile. I held his hand and huggled up to him.
"Does anyone want to say something?" the priest asked
I let go of Gerards hand and stood where the priest was.
"I know, none of you knew my parents but they were nice people. I just want you to know that. They never caused any harm. They said a few years ago that if something happened they wanted to meet the people I live with, at the funeral, or wherever they maybe. So, Mum and Dad. Here they are. I hope you like them. I'll always remember the good tomes we shared and love you. I'm missing you so much but I no. In the future. I'll see you again. " Tears fled down my cheeks. I looked up at the sky.
I saw something that quite suprised me. I saw two faces. Big ghostly images of my parents hovering above the gravestones. They were smiling and waving.
"Steph, these people your with are the best you can get. They love you and so do I. I always will. You look so beautiful and grown-up. Never forget me sweetie. Goodbye," Mum's ghost said.
"Listen to your mum hunny. She's right. Make sure they look after you. We both heard the speech and we'll be here for you, forever and ever. I can't wait to see you in the future. Goodbye. I'll always love you," the ghost of my dad said.
"Mum, Dad. I'll look after them. I will never forget you and I love you so much too. I can't wait to see you either in the future. Thanks for everything. Goodbye," I cried.
I waved to there ghosts as they waved back. They slowly faded away.
I went back and held Gerard's hand again. He wrapped his arms around me.
"Is there any one else that want to make a speech?" the priest asked.
Gerard let go of my hand a went up to where I made my speech. What was he doing?
"Jenny and Darren Brennen. I like to promise you that I'll look after Steph for you. What ever happens. I love your daughter and I hope that you'll exept me and the rest of the people thats here for Steph."
Gerard came back and took my hand.
"That was beautiful," I whispered to Gerard.
"Let the coffins be lowered," the priest said as my parents was lowered into the ground.
As they began to get lowered into the ground music came on. It was my parents faviorte song and it suited the occasion. Green Day - Good Riddence (Time of your life). They filled in the coffins as I broke down into a fit of tears. Dirt filled the roofs of the coffins trapping them under a ton of dirt.
"Mum, Dad, don't leave me," I cried.
They were down under now. A black car had arrived to take us home. The priest and ringbearers made there own way home as the guys left me alone at the gravestones. I read the newest gravestone at the cemetary:
Here lies Jenny and Darren Brennen. Never forgotten. Always there.
I rested a dark rose on there graves then I stood there looking down at the graves, wishing they would come back. I miss them so much. I felt a warm arm wrap around my side.
"We need to go. It's cold and raining and we can't stay out here forever. Are you okay?" Gerard said.
"Not really." I cried as we got into one of the black cars.
There was silence for the rest of the way home. Which was good in a way. I needed time for my mind to catch up with my life and I needed to sort out my deadliest horrors which wouldn't leave me.
