Disclaimer: I do not own Rachel, Trigon, Arella, or Garfield.
Garfield was sitting down at a table in the cafeteria. Jump City High wasn't the same without Rachel. He just got the news yesterday afternoon from his parents, and he broke down. His best friends for years gone? How could something like that happen? Garfield just kept looking at his salad, lunch wasn't fun without Rachel eating all his food while he ate her's.
"Garfield? You ok man? We heard the news," A guy said as he walked over and sat down next to him. He had short messy orange hair, ocean blue eyes, an orange shirt, blue jeans, and white sneakers.
"And we're so sorry," The girl said as she sat on the other side of Garfield and placed her head on his shoulder. She had pink hair down half way from her arms, pink eyes, and wore a purple dress up to her knees. She had purple heels to match her dress.
"Thanks Wally, thanks Angelica. It's means a lot," He replied as he laid the side of his head onto her's.
"You're welcome to always sit with us and the other gang," Wally started.
"I know Roy, Jessica, Nick, and Tara wouldn't mind," Angelica added.
Something then caught Wally's eyes. On the table, there was something scratched on it under his hands. He moved it and saw a small heart with Garfield's and Rachel's name on it.
"Hey Garfield, what's this?" Wally asked as he pointed to the small heart.
Garfield smiled a little when he saw the and Angelica then disappeared. In their place, Rachel and Garfield sat there. He first wondered why they were a little fainted but then he thought it was just a flashback.
'This is our table Rach. We're not sitting anywhere else!' Garfield yelled.
'Who said I wanted to sit somewhere else dummy?' Rachel asked confused on his random topic.
'You can say whatever you want.' Garfield crossed his arms.
'What are you talking about Gar?!'
Garfield then took out his pocketknife and made something on the table.
"Gar, what are you doing? This is school property!' She tried to stop him by taking his knife away.
'Too late. Now everyone will know this is our table.'
'Why is our initials in a heart?' She questioned as she saw the drawing.
'I dunno, first thing that came in my mind.'
'And you didn't bother to ask me if you should draw that?! What, did you want people to think we're going out?'
'...Maybe...' Garfield answered as he smiled. Rachel just laughed, she loved it when he always thinks they're going to go out one day. But who knows, maybe they will.
"Garfield? Gar?" Angelica called as she waved her hand in front of his face.
"Yo, Garfield, you alright man?" Wally asked as Garfield zoned out.
Garfield then let a little tear escape from his eyes. He didn't want the memory to fade away so fast.
"Garfield?" Angelica called again as she rapped her hands around his arm.
He broke down, "Darn it!" He yelled as he slammed his fist onto the table, "She's gone!"
"Gar what's going on?" Wally asked as he got worried.
"Why did she had to come to my house at midnight? Why couldn't she just hide in her basement or something?! Why did her parents have to argue then?" He asked between his sobs.
"Aw, Garfield, it's ok," Angelica soothed as she rubbed her hand on his back.
"No, it's not! I just lost my best friend and she's never going to come back. Who will hang out with me after school? What about our clubhouse? When I win another soccer game, who will go eat ice cream with me at the diner?"
"Garfield there's always us," Wally answered.
"It's not going to be the same. Rachel promised she was always going to be with me. See what you did Rachel, you broke your promise," Garfield said as he looked at the picture, "You never brake promises and now you did."
He just cried some more. Garfield felt like his heart literally been pulled out.
"Hey man-" Wally began but was interrupted by Angelica.
"Wally, maybe you should just let him," Angelica said as she shook her head.
Garfield then placed his head on his arms. Life wasn't going to be good.

After School:
Garfield was walking in the forest were the clubhouse was. He had his hands in his pockets, and his face down. Voices kept running through his head as he kept walking. When he raised his head, the faint Garfield and Rachel appeared in front of him again.
'You know,' Rachel started as she tapped her finger on her chin, 'This place is good for something.'
'What do you mean?' Garfield asked as he scratched is head.
'I mean something you and I can always come to. Where it would be just you and me,' Rachel explained more.
'We would always use that big empty space for a clubhouse,' Garfield suggested as she shrugged.
'That's it!" Rachel yelled, 'We could build a clubhouse!'
'I have my moments here and there,' Garfield said as he smiled.
'You sure do,' Rachel agreed as she giggled, 'Come on, we'll go to my house and plan.'
'Right behind you,' Garfield said as he and Rachel ran. They ran right past Garfield, and he turned his head. The imaginary figures ran until they disappeared, leaving a smile on Garfield's face. When they were gone, Garfield turned back around and started walking toward the clubhouse.
Garfield started running when he saw the house. It was still the same as it was the last time he came. On the front door had the sketch he drew of him and Rachel. The bottom of the picture read The Roth and Logan Clubhouse in beautiful calligraphy writing all thanks to Rachel. Garfield climbed up the ladders, opened the door, walked inside, and closed the door behind him. The first thing that caught his eyes were the drawing all over the walls. That was his and Rachel's talent - draw their hearts out.
Garfield walked to the couch and sat down, bringing a laptop from the table. He opened it, turned it on, and met with his background of him and Rachel. He slammed the laptop shut. Did everything in the world had to remind him of Rachel? Garfield set the laptop on the floor, layed down on the couch looking up at the glass roof. He started crying again,
Looks like his lucky penny wasn't so lucky for Rachel after all.
