"Mmm" Rachel cuddles up against me.

I laugh. "You're being oddly cuddly, what's wrong?"

She stirs. "I think I started my period and I have no tampons"

"I'll go pick some up for you right fast?" I run my fingers through her hair.

She smiles and nods. "That would be awesome. Thank youuuu!"

I chuckle and kiss her forehead before getting out of bed. "Just a question... where did you go yesterday....?"

She turns to me. "Babe...I was at the store. I promise you I'm not running off with some other guy" she laughs.

I take a breath of relief. "Well that's relieving" I throw on a shirt and grab my keys. "I'll be right back. I love you"

"I love you toooo" she smiles.

I walk out of our room and see he boys sprawled out on the couches.

Out of all fifteen rooms we have, they choose to sleep on the couch.

Idiots.

I laugh to myself and jog outside and into my car.

"Alright En... I know you're here in spirit..." I clench my jaw as I start the car. "I miss you buddy... a lot. I can't wait to see you again... just imagine the shit we're gonna get into. Reuniting..." I look up and close my eyes. "Okay" I look back and speed off.

It's still so bad... this grief...

I hate when Rachel wants to go out alone... it's so terrifying.

I always take to Enzo... to watch out for her on those roads alone.

Deep down, I believe Enzo hears me.

I know he hears me.

It's funny... we use to have this pact... that if one of us dies before the other, we'd haunt the fuck out of the other. That we'd always be listening...

Ah fuck, stop being sad, Archer.

I pick up the speed and take a sharp turn into the store.

I park before jogging in and running into the feminine products.

Oh fuck.

I figured I could do this alone, buttttt I can't.

So of course, I FaceTime Rachel.

"Hey" she rubs her eyes.

"Which one are they?" I scan every... tampon... with my phone.

"Those!" she stops me and I put my phone to them. "Yea! Them"

I grab them and flip the camera around. "What the fuck? They're huge! How do you fit them up there?!" I pause "oh i know" I wink.

She laughs "Get out of my face" and hangs up.

I laugh and go to the self checkout.
