CLAIRE

We're driving in silence as I fidget with my sleeve. "Are you mad at me?" I say looking towards him timidly. He grips the steering weal tightly and sighs.

"Claire. I could never be mad at you," His grip loosens and he looks over at me. Piercing through me with those eyes against his pale skin. "I'm just worried about you."  I look away from his gaze and pull my sleeve down further. All you can hear for a brief minute is the low growl of the engine running and our pased breathing. 

"I'm going to miss you." I whisper, tears filling my eyes. I glance up at him, my best friend, one reason I'm still here, one reason I'm leaving, the one who knows everything- almost. The gorgeous boy sees my wet cheeks and pulls over.

"What do you mean?" Pause. He waits for my answer but I cant get anything out. Pause. "What do you mean youre going to miss me!?" I hear the worry and urgency in his voice, but all I can do is look down and fidget,

"Nothing. You weren't supposed to hear that." I hear keys pulled out, a door opening and losing. Then silence. But I don't dare look up. The do to my right opens and the strong arms of my best friend lift me up and out o the car. he sits me on the roof of the car and stands in front of the me.

"I don't care if I was supposed to hear it or not," He makes me look at him, the person I want so much. "But you said it, and now you have to tell me what you mean." I know hes right but what am i supposed to say? I love you and I'm still going to kill myself in three days, but Ill miss you? No. I cant tell him. 

"Theres no way to explain it" I whisper and shift away from the boy I love. 

"Fine. Then me when you know how to." I feel so bad, tears are streaming down my face, I know hes hurt, but there's nothing I can do about it.

"you'll know Monday." i whisper. My head stays down , my eyes close and all I can imagine is how he will react. How I know he'll blame himself, how hurt he will be. A picture of him sobbing on the floor wont detach its-self from the back of my eyelids. I squeeze my eyes shut, trying to get rid of it without opening my eyes. I ear a rush of warm air on my neck and I feel nervous hands rest gently on my knees. The hands slowly rise up my legs and around my waist. I sigh and let myself slide into his arms and into a tight hug. "You still haven't told me where you're taking me." I murmur into his shoulder. He just pulls me closer to his chest. After a moment, he loosens his grip and i feel his lips near my ear.

"Don't you ever leave me," he whispers and I instantly tear up. All I can do is nod, even though I know I'm lying to him even more. He pulls away and picks me up. "I'm taking you to my cave." he says excitedly. Of course he means his basement, but Ill let him have his moment. He unlocks his house and pulls open the door. With a large sweeping motion, he tells me to enter the house. As I step inside, I look around the house i know so well.

"I love your house," I murmur and walk to the kitchen. As i feel him follow me in, I pull open the fridge and start rumaging through it. "You have no food, and Im hungry. Thats a problem." The fridge door closes infront of me.

"You're looking in the wrong part of the house." He walks away and goes downstairs. As i stand up to follow him I hear a soft cal from his direction. "More food down here." his raspy voice echoes throughout the house and I enter The Cave. Daymon is at the fridge, pulling out various drinks and food items as i plop down on the beanbag chair.

"What are you making me?" The only response I get is a grunt. I groan in hunger and pull off my bracelets. Dropping them one by one on the floor.

"Whatya doin?" he walks over to me, handing me my sand-which.

"The bracelets are rubbing on them, its annoying" I take off three more. "Thanks" I murmur as I take a bite. My eyes widen and I smile "This is amazing" I glance to him and hes watching me with a smug grin on his face. 

"I know, I'm an amazing cook" I chuckle and keep eating, I can feel his gaze drifting over my body and our eyes meet as i look up. I put the last bite in my mouth. I stand up and grab a drink from the counter before walking back to sit next to him. Our legs brush together and I feel butterflies reach my stomach, I lean my head on his shoulder and let out a sigh.

"Why is life so annoying?" His arm wraps around my waist. If you didn't now us you would think we were a couple. Hah. I can only wish.

"I dont know Claire, sometimes it just is. But you have to hold on, you have to." I glance up and his eyes are tearing up, he knows something. He rubs my arm slowly and sighs. "Please hold on" he whispers. I bite my lip and scoot closer

"Ill try."
