Its been 6 months to Jesse's death now and even now brad haven't talked to anyone nicely yet .

After Jesse's funeral , brad went away in his car and didn't contacted anyone for days until one day we all went together and he finally opened up for us but didn't talk nicely , he was not rude but he didn't talk just yes or hmm . It broke my heart to see brad like that , fans are going mad and asking brad to join everything once again since he left after Jesse's death . I am afraid what will happen if he choose this way , going to studio , work and then home again , not talking to anyone or anything .
I am afraid about us . Brad haven't actually talked to me since that time.

Its his birthday tomorrow and we have planned a surprise party for him but we are not sure if he'd like that .

On Brad's birthday

We went to his house at 12 in night and indeed we celebrated but somewhat brad was not that happy and kept on staring Jesse's picture . When everybody left I was the only one there and brad sitting in the couch .

"Brad ? Can we talk ? " I asked

"Yeah " he said expressionless

" Brad are you okay ? " I asked sitting besides him .

" Yeah " he replied again expressionless

" Can I okay something for you ? " I asked

"Yeah " he replied putting his phone away with expressionless face .

I pulled brad to where his piano was kept . We went into the room and brad sat down in front of me and I started playing piano

" Say something I'm giving up on
You ,
I'll be the one if you want me
To be ,
Anywhere I would've followed
You,
Say something , I'm giving up on
You ,

And I'm feeling so small
It was over my head
I know nothing at all

And I will stumble and fall
I'm still learning to love
Just starting to crawl

Say something I'm giving up on
,
And I'm sorry that I couldn't get to
You ,
Anywhere I would've followed
You , oh oh
Say something I'm giving up on
You . "

When i was singing brad was listening to me singing and it was not late when he started crying . I went to him.
It was the song that brad dedicated after Jesse's . He used to listen to it and loves it . This reminds him of Jesse . While I was signing I was afraid whether I did the right thing or wrong so I just went to him .

" Brad please stop crying . I won't sing it , never " I said instantly

" No .. w... I. Love it .. ALICE " he stuttered and hugged me hard . I hugged him back .

" Brad it's okay . Its been months and you always knew she had to leave someday . " I said softly through the hug .

" But why did she had to leave. Couldn't she live forever ? " He said

"Brad I wish that too but everybody had to die someday " I said rubbing my hands on his back

" I miss her sooo much . She meant everything to me . I can't understand anything since she had left me , after all these years I can't take it " he said crying

" Brad , even you would die someday and that day I'd wish it never happened but I couldn't change it . Brad what if Jesse was alive would she like to see you like this , not talking to anyone and just being in yourself and ignoring everything . Brad Jesse never wanted that right ? Look brad , we have to move on after what happened , she will always be a part of us but we have to get over it that she's gone . No one can be Jesse but just she is the most lovable memory of me " I said

" But I never wanted to loose her alice . I miss her . I love her more than anything " he said and we separated . I looked away for a minute but he spoke again

" I'm sorry I didn't mean that ,I mean I love you too " he said

" Brad are you serious ? " I asked in arrogance

" What ? " He asked scared

"Brad no one can take place of Jesse and who am I to you in front of Jesse . She is you , I'm another girl , I'm another individual " I said and he laughed a little

"What was that brad ? " I asked smiling

" A laugh maybe " he replied smiling .

"See bringing a smile in your face was not that easy " I said

" Maybe " he replied

" Whatever. , Do you remember how much I got scared when I first saw  her and fell back and you and James laughed so hard ... " And like that we talked and laughed that night and I was happy to get the old cheerful brad back after 6 months. It was hard to see him like that but seeing him like that again was like reliving your life again.

Brad can never get over Jesse because she is not just a part of him , but she made him and she taught him everything from loving to crying , from happy to depression , from strong to weak . She means everything to him and indeed there can be no other Jesse like her .
