The hardest part of losing someone isn't saying goodbye,
It's learning to live without them

Cole's pov
I was in the kitchen finishing up some cake I had left for myself when Jay came in. His expression scared and sad at the same time. "Uh Jay you alright?" I said putting the cake down and walking over to him, "yeah I'm fine" He responded not looking up at me. "You don't seem fine" "well I am!" He shot back. I stared at him surprised by his reaction "just... leave me alone" he said as he walked to his room. "Jay..." I started "I don't feel like talking right now Cole" he said not looking back, "just leave me alone for a while" he said as he closed the door. I sat dumbfounded, I flattened my hair and took a deep breath. I went to Jays room and nocked on the door "Jay? Can... can I come in?" I asked nervously "mmh" he murmured back. I opened the door and saw him sitting on his bed, his legs propped up in front of his chest to hide his face. I walked over to him and sat down next to him "What happened?" I asked as I rubbed his back, he shook his head and buried his head deeper into his knees. "It's nothing" he muttered "if it was nothing then why are you crying?" I asked pulling him closer "I-..." his voice broke and he hugged me as tears feel from his eyes. I held him tight as he cried and cried, I don't know what happened but all I knew was that it was bad. After a while Jay wiped his eyes and sat up. "I'm sorry" he said quietly "you have nothing to apologize for" I said giving him a reassuring smile "I just feel weak and-" he sighed then continued "I'm sorry" "Jay, has anyone ever told you that you say sorry too much?" I chuckled trying to lift the mood "shut it bolder brain" he said punching my shoulder playfully as he gave me a slight smile "never motor mouth" I teased back, he gasped dramatically and shoved me. "Hey!" I shoved him back a little too hard and he started to fall but grabbed my shirt and we both toppled over. We lay on the ground laughing, tears running down outer cheeks, I smiled at him and he gave me one of his signature grins, "so-" before he could finish I put a hand to his mout "no. You are now not allowed to say the S word" I teased, he sighed but smiled. Our hands were millimeters away from each other, I moved my hand a little closer and he noticed. We lay there holding hands. Both of us blushing messes, "thanks for.. comforting me Cole" he finally murmured "no problem" I whispered back. After what seemed an eternity I heard Kai calling me so I gave Jay one final smile and got up to leave. "You up for a Mario kart game after dinner?" He said "your on" I grinned back holding up finger guns "get ready to lose!" He called as I walked out "we'll see!" I called back
