DISCLAIMER: I DONOT OWNT THE OUTSIDERS

Sorry this took so long to update, school started and of COURSE we had no time to write. :(

ENJOY!

Kelsey POV

I'm dreaming again.

Unfortunately, it's not a wonderful lust-filled dream with Darry. But, he is making an appearance.

I'm onstage, on Broadway. It's a revival of one of my favorite musicals, "Funny Girl", and I'm playing Barbara Streisand's character, singing her hit song, "Don't Rain On My Parade". As I belt out the high notes, I see Darry on his feet, cheering me on.

But right as I get the last note, I feel the stage collapse underneath me, and suddenly, I'm falling. Falling, a familiar abyss...

The dream. Again.

I scream, scream as I keep falling. And then the pain starts, and it's worse than before. I feel like Julius Caesar, being stabbed several times, dying. I keep screaming, wanting, needing, to wake up. It gets worse, it just keeps on going and I feel like I'm trapped, never coming out of this nightmare...

And suddenly, I'm sitting straight up, gasping for air.

Darry's arms are around me instantly, and I start sobbing uncontrollably. He rocks me against him, trying to calm me down like last time. Finally, when there's only a few tears left, he turns me around, looking into my eyes.

"What happened? I couldn't get you to wake up for ten minutes! You just kept screaming." He keeps searching my chocolate eyes for an answer. "Are you okay?"

I look away from him, swiping a tear running down my face. "It was the dream again. At first, I was just singing, on Broadway, but then..."

I stop for a moment, another mini-sob escaping my lips. "I was falling again, Darry! It was worse than before, so much worse. I felt like I was dying, and I would never wake up..."

I finally look into his eyes. "I don't get it. Last time, the dream was forewarning me of the prostitute thing, because that was pretty bad." I pause again, coming to a scary realization. "But I've never had the dream twice in a row. What could this mean, Darry?"

Darry shakes his head and pulls me in closer. "I have no idea, Kel. But what I do know is that I'll never let anything bad happen to you," He puts a strand of hair behind my ear, kissing my forehead. "Ever."

I smile, still crying a little bit. "I'm so scared, Darry. But I'm so glad that you guys came, that I found you..." I pull him even closer, kissing his lips.

I pour my heart out into the kiss, tears still streaming down my face. Darry kisses them away, cupping my face in his hands. I look into his eyes, and smile. Darry smiles too.

He looks at the clock. "It's only 6:30, Kel. Why don't you try to get some more sleep?"

I frown a little, but understand that I really do need the sleep. "Okay, I'll try, Dar."

I snuggle against him, and think happy thoughts...like me and Darry doing it. And then, I go into a peaceful slumber.

Darry POV

I'm so glad you guys came, that I found you...

How didwe get here?

As I wrapped my arms around Kelsey again, as she fell asleep, I thought about it again. When we first got here, I wondered that tremendously, but know that I had Kelsey...

I hadn't really thought about it much.

I mean, how did we get here? I remember one minute, all of us were just sitting around in the house, and the next, we were here. It doesn't make sense...

Could that same force take us back?

I gasp. Could it? Separate me and Kelsey?

No. I'm not thinking about that. I'm staying with her no matter what.

She's my girl. She's my love, my everything. I can't leave her.

I push those thoughts aside, even though in the back of my mind I know I'll have to face them someday, but for the meantime, I snuggle against Kelsey, and think about me and her.

Dally POV

"This is gonna be more than just a kiss, ain't it." Tiff says as I lay down on top of her.

"Only if you want it to be..." I reply to her. I'm at Buck Merill's place, in my old room, with Tiffany in my bed. In Tulsa, home. I begin to softly nibble at her neck. I look over and see something missing from my hand... my ring... the ring I give to my girl...

Aw who cares, I'm gonna enjoy the HELL outta this!

We begin to slowly take off each other's clothes and toss them to the floor. "Now, if ya don't want to do this-." she cuts me off.

"Shut up and kiss me." she immediately makes contact with my lips, plunging her tongue into my mouth. I feel myself give in to her wants, her desires, and suddenly, she flips me over so that she's on top of me.

She smirks at me. "Ya know, I'm always on top." I say to her.

"Well, things can change, you just gotta take the bull by the horns."

Then, all I see is ceiling.

DAMN IT! Just when it was getting to the good part! I cannot believe how sexy she was... damn... I want her, I want her SO bad! She isn't ready, she needs time to heal. Now, that's all fine and dandy, but I can't jerk off EVERY FUCKING NIGHT!

I look down at my fully erect "little" friend. I sigh and head into the bathroom, lock the door, and sit down on the toilet. I wrap my hand around my cock and begin to jerk up and down.

I throw my head back in pure ecstasy. I get caught up in a moan and I picture Tiffany in my mind. I then imagine her kneeling over and sucking me. The thought of it makes me come instantly.

I clean myself off and head back to my room to fall asleep and HOPEFULLY continue that dream I was havin'...

Kate POV

I woke up to actually be by myself for once, I hate being alone. I feel tears coming from my eyes, "Soda," I mumble weakly. I start sobbing no sooner than I hear the door open and Soda stumbling out half dressed.

"What's wrong, where's the fire?" he yells. He sees me sobbing and runs over to hug me, not saying anything.

That boy just knows when I need some skinny pale white boy loving. I hug him back softly crying into his chest.

"Tell me what's wrong," I start to tell him about a nightmare I had where I killed Dally. Dally's not my best friend but I don't want him dead. Soda continues to hug me and I see him half dressed and smile.

"Let me help you with that," I offer and dress him and he does the same to me. We walk out to eat breakfast.

Kelsey POV

Finally, a pleasant dream.

Darry has me pinned down on the bed, looking down at me with pure lust. I smile seductively, loving this, needing him.

"Gonna do something there, Superman? Or just let your little friend grow hard?" I laugh, teasing him.

He growls, and, sensing my needs, lays on top of me, kissing me hard. Clothes come off in a matter of seconds, and suddenly we're both panting.

I then have an idea, something that I know Darry has been wanting me to do for a while. I look at him, wink, and then take his cock in my hands.

He moans, and moves up overtop of me so that his cock is right near my face. I smile, stroke it a little more, and finally...

Open my eyes.

To kissing Darry, arms around each other.

I pull away, and his eyes open too, and we laugh at each other.

We must've been having the same sex dream.

"Were you dreaming what I was dreaming?" I ask, blushing a little bit at the thought.

Darry smiles. "Well, if it was us doing it, and you about to...well..."

I blush even harder. "Suck you?"

Darry blushes even harder as well, which turns me on even more. "Yeah..."

All of a sudden, I have a realization. If I'm turned on from that dream, that means...

I reach my hand under the covers, finding the fabric of his boxers. I feel his constricted erection, and sure enough, it's hard, harder than I've ever felt it.

Darry moans. "Kel...what are you doing...?"

I think for a minute. Why not? He deserves it, for what he did early this morning. Besides...I had a nightmare this morning. I need pleasure myself.

Yeah, why not?

I smile at him, getting excited myself a little. "Take them off. Now."

Darry gapes at me. "Are you sure...?"

I nod. "Dar, you deserve it. Besides...you've already jerked off for me. I might as well fix it this time," I grin.

He gapes at me one more time, and then puts his hands under the covers and takes off his boxers. He looks at me, and I burrow under the covers, putting my face to his area.

Wasting no time, I take his erection in my mouth and start sucking on it. Darry starts moaning really loud, probably because it's better than he expected. I start bobbing my head, going up and down, putting my hands where my mouth can't cover. Darry's moans just keep getting louder, and he moves his hips against me, and I know he's getting close.

"Kel, I'm-I'm gonna-" He cuts off into a yell as he cums into my mouth. Even though it's kind of bitter, I swallow it all, making him moan even more. Finally, I take his cock out of my mouth, and come back up out of the covers.

Darry instantly takes hold of my mouth, kissing me hard. I pull him closer, loving him so much. We keep frenching, and after probably ten, fifteen minutes (okay, it was a half hour...), we finally pull apart.

"Wanna go get washed up?" I ask him.

He smiles. "Of course, babe."

Tiffany POV

I slowly open my eyes. I look over at my door and hear the laughter and conversations of the guys and Kate in the living room, and...moans from Kelsey's room. I sigh and get out of my bed and eventually, out of my room.

I don't even change out of what I was wearing; my baggy black Elvis pj pants and a tank-top that says NY Academy of Art across the chest.

I look around the room to find one person isn't around. "Where's Dallas?" I ask.

"Still sleepin'. Why you want him anyway? There's enough of me to go around!" Two-Bit laughs. I walk out of the apartment and into the guys. I find Dally's room and slowly and quietly open and close the door.

I walk over and I am inches away from him; my breath gently moving his hair.

"Hey, Dallas?" I whisper in his ear.

"Mhmm... that's right... say my name... baby..." Oh... okay... yeah time to wake his ass up even though I find this really hot...

"WAKE UP DALLY!" I scream, he jumps up and looks straight at me. I burst out into laughter.

"You are SO gonna get it." he says.

"Not if you can catch me!" I bolt out of the room and he's hot on my tail.

I'm standing over in the kitchen making some food when I hear a knock at the door. I look at the couches and chairs and notice that no one moves.

"Fine... I'LL get it,." I say and walk over to the door. I open it and the two on the other side scream and then I scream and we hug.

"I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S REALLY YOU GUYS! AHHHH!" I scream. I then hear screams behind me and the two run in and hug Kelsey and Kate.

The guys look so confused right now. As they hug each other, I explain. "Guys, these two are two VERY good friends from high school. Amy is twenty and Raven is eighteen like the rest of us."

I look over and Two-Bit is staring down Raven. What the hell is his problem?I see him walk over with Steve to the hallway. I decide to follow them.

I eventually hide behind a plant in our hallway and listen in.

"Damn, what the hell's your problem Two-Bit?" Steve asks.

"I don't know, she ain't even blond and she turns me on!" I come out of hiding and stand with my arms crossed in the hallway near them. They don't notice me.

"Well, they're gonna suspect something if we stay here too long." Steve says and as they turn, they catch sight of me and stop.

"Don't tell anyone, PLEASE!"Two-bit pleads with me.

"Depends, what conditions?" I ask. Maybe I can get something out of this.

"I tell you something you don't know 'bout Dally and you tell me something 'bout Raven."

Damn, I hate him so much... but I can't deny that offer.

I sigh. "Fine..."

"So...?" Two-Bit asks with a smile.

"She likes guys who know how to have a good time, ya know, like always crackin' jokes, basically you. Now, YOU hold up your end of the bargain." he gets really close to me.

He whispers. "Okay, so Dally has a REALLY good singing voice. He doesn't know we know though. That poor bastard thought we didn't hear him singin'."

"Really?" Dallas... SINGS? HUH?! "I literally love you right now."

"KISS ME!" I then contemplate it for a second, and grab his face firmly, place my thumbs over his mouth and kiss my thumbs and let him go.

"Now, ya might wanna get to know HER more, NOT me." I chuckle and we walk out of the hallway and back into the room with the other's.

Kelsey POV

I'm talking with Amy about her latest film that she wanted me to be in when the phone rings.

"Hold on a sec, Amy, let me catch that," I tell her. She nods, and I jog to the kitchen to answer the phone.

"Hello?" I say into the receiver.

A man's voice answers. "Hello, is this Kelsey?"

"Who's asking?" I ask cautiously.

"This is Nick from Epic Records, New York. I was at your gig at Arizona Sunset. You might have seen me in the front row, suit on..."

I thought about it. Oh my gosh, really cute suit guy was from A RECORD LABEL? "Yes, I remember now. So...?"

"Well," he says, laughing. "You're amazing. You did so well at Arizona Sunset. I'm the manager and head of Epic Records, so I was thinking... Would you like to record with us?"

I had a mini-freak out session in my head. THIS GUY IS OFFERING ME A RECORDING CONTRACT! AND AT EPIC RECORDS...

They're the guys who record one of my favorite bands, The Fray!

Dude. This is awesome.

"So what do you say, Kelsey?" Nick says.

"Yes, yes, of course, yes," I say in a rush.

"Great," Nick says, laughing. "I'm so happy you want to record. So, do you mind coming over to our studio today to just go over the contract and such?"

I nod. "Sure, what time do you want me there?"

Nick thinks about it. "Maybe an hour? Here, I'll give you the address for the studio."

Nick rambles off the address to me, and I write it down on a Post-It. Finally, I sigh and smile. "Thank you, Nick. Don't worry, I won't let you down!"

Nick laughs. "I know you won't. You're going to be a star, Kelsey, I know it." With that, he hangs up.

Dude. I'm going to be a star.

I wonder if they'll let me meet The Fray...

Much to Darry's disappointment, I decide to go by myself to meet Nick at Epic Records. I told him all about it. He didn't really like the idea of me going on the streets alone, but I told him I'd be fine, I knew karate if anything got rough. He laughed at me, kissed me on the lips, and pushed me out the door with a smile.

Gotta love my man, you just have to.

I get on the subway to take me to the street where Epic Records is. As I sit down next to a stranger, I think of this wonderful opportunity.

I'm going to be recording. My own songs. With a major record label, they can make me famous.

This is freakin' insane!

The subway stops, my stop, and I get out, heading straight to the escalator to take me up to the street. Now, usually, I'm a lazy human being and just stand on the escalator. But today, I decide to be like most people in New York, and run like a madwoman up the escalator.

Thankfully, I don't trip (or do a random gravity check, which is what my old Physics teacher called "tripping") in my high heel boots (I decided to wear a really cute business-like dress and black heeled boots to look nice) up the escalator, and I get up to the street. I take a right, like Nick told me, and I look for...

Holy shit.

The building is beautiful. It looks like it's made of glass, it's so pretty. And in the front, on a little plaque...

Epic Records.

I squeal a little bit in my head, and enter the building. I go up to the elevator (Nick told me to meet him on the 3rd floor) and head up.

When the elevator door opens, I remain calm (as calm as a Kelsey can be) and walk to Nick's office, knocking on the door.

The door opens, and there stands Nick.

"Hello, Kelsey, right on time," he says, motioning for me to come in. "Great to see you."

I walk in, shaking his hand once he closes the door. "It's an honor to be here, thank you so much for the opportunity."

Nick laughs, and takes a seat behind his desk as I take a seat across from him. He smiles at me. "Oh, no, sweet, you're the one who I need to thank. It's artists like you who we need to give international voices to. I'm lucky I found you," he says.

I blush, and Nick hands me some papers. "So, anyway, here's all the stuff you need to know. We're giving you full creative reign, Kelsey. We're not like other record companies that strangle your creativity; we will let you do whatever you think is best. Of course, we'll help you as much as we can. We'll get you on iTunes, anywhere. I already looked on your Facebook page. We can update that so that it shows that you're under Epic Records."

I nod. "Great."

He smiles even more. "Also, I heard you were a huge The Fray fan. And, I think both you and them have great voices, that would go well together. So, I was thinking..."

My jaw dropped. "A collaboration?"

He winks. "Yep. Maybe it could be your first single. It would definitely get your name out there. And...we were also thinking...that you could go on The Fray's Scars and Storiestour with them. The whole tour."

My jaw dropped even further. "Oh my gosh...yes, yes, yes! That's awesome! I don't know what to say...This is amazing!"

Nick laughs. "You deserve it, Kelsey. You're amazing. You're definitely going to go far," he says. "Now, for the boring part. Let's do some paperwork, shall we?"

I laugh. "This is awesome."

Darry POV

I told everyone else about Kelsey's recording contract, and we decided to throw her a little congrats party for when she came back.

Since Soda and Tiffany are the chefs of the house, I let them make a cake, something that Soda especially gets really excited about. However, Tiffany looks a little saddened as she helps Soda. I go over to her.

"You okay, Tif?" I ask her.

She looks up at me, shrugging. "Oh, I'm fine, Darry. Just...thinking about something, that's all."

"Okay, well, remember, you can talk to me about anything," I say, patting her shoulder.

She smiles faintly. "Thanks, Superman." She goes back to working on the cake.

I look over at the other greasers. Two-Bit was sitting in the corner, talking to Raven; Steve was watching them, looking alone; Pony and Johnny were cuddling; and Dally...

Where's Dally?

I walk into the hallway, and lean into each of the rooms, finally finding Dally...

In Tiffany's room.

Of course.

"Dally, what are you doing?" I say to him, as he scans her room.

Dally looks up at me. "Oh, just looking, trying to learn about her more," he says.

I laugh. "Why don't you just TALK to her like a NORMAL human being?"

Dally blushes, and I laugh. "Hey, I can't just go up to her and be like, 'So, what do you do, where did you come from, are you a virgin?' That'd be too awkward!"

I laugh even harder. "No it wouldn't! That's what I did with Kelsey! Though I didn't say it like that," I say.

Dally frowns. "That's because you and Kelsey are perfect. Me and Tif...we have problems."

"Ah, but they're problems you can solve together," I say. I go up to Dally and push him out of the room. "Now, come on. Stop stalking her room and go socialize with the rest of the gang."

As Darry leaves, I still stand in her room. I look over and see a sketchbook on the floor labeled "The Gang".

I walk over, pick it up and open it. The first picture is of Two-Bit looking rather stupid playing poker with Steve. I flip to the next one. Pony and Johnny cuddling on the couch, the next, Darry and Kelsey holding hands, then Soda and Kate sleeping with each other. None of me yet?

I flip to the next page. It is literally a collage of sketches of me. The next, a picture of me... eating? Okay, not really normal but okay.I flip to the next page.

"Haha, wow look at that." I chuckle a little bit as I see a picture of Tiff looking at my butt as I walk away. She draws my butt very well... After that, it's all pictures of me, some with her in them but mostly just me.

"Dallas, come on!" Darry says as he drags me out of her room.

Kelsey POV

"CONGRATULATIONS!"

I blush profusely as I walk through the door. The whole gang is there, along with Raven and Amy, and they're all staring right at me. I see a banner on the wall that says, "Congrats Kelsey1", and they have on a The Fray song, "You Found Me".

"Aw, shucks. Thanks guys!" I say, loving them so much.

"You deserve it, Kel!" Kate says. "I can't believe you got a record deal!"

"I can't believe it either!" I say, hugging her. "And, guess what? Nick, the producer guy, said that my first single will be a collaboration with The Fray and I'm going to go on tour with them this summer!"

Everyone screams in joy and comes around to hug me. We're all laughing and hugging and it's just so wonderful. Soda brings out a cake that he and Tifie made, and we all eat and laugh and talk and stuff our faces.

Out of the corner of my eye, I see Tiffany walking out of the room. I go up to her. "Hey, where ya goin' , hun?"

Tifie frowns. "Just...outside for a minute. Fresh air."

I frown. "Well...okay."

Tif walks out. I look after her, wondering what's up, what am I missing? I go back in the living room. Dallas walks up to me.

"Where's she going?" he asks me.

"I don't know, probably out to the balcony, she said she needed fresh air," I say.

"I guess I'll go after her," he says, and he walks away.

"KELSEY, KARAOKE TIME!" Kate yells.

I smile. Gotta love Kate.

Tiffany POV

I walk slowly out on the balcony and lean on it. The tears cascading down my face falling to the streets below. Thirteen years ago to the day...

I then hear a faint opening of a door. I ignore it and continue to look out at the city. I hear a clicking on the metal railing and footsteps. One of the guys must be out on the balcony and coming over to talk to me. I still ignore it.

I see an elbow come into my peripheral vision and it rests next to mine. "Hey doll face, why you ignorin' me huh?" Dally asks in a sexual voice.

"Just... just leave me alone..." I whisper and I dramatically start sobbing into the railing. I come back up and stare out at the city, tears staining my face.

"I should just jump and end it all now; jump into the street, die on impact. All this pain for all these years, I can't take it anymore! I put on a fake smile almost every single day, no one would miss me, they don't care, no one does!" I start to hyperventilate.

Dallas POV

"I should just jump..."

Jump? The street? DIE? Pain? Can't take it? Fake SMILE?! No one CARES?! No one would MISS HER?! What the hell has gotten into her? How the fuck am I supposed to help her?! God, what the hell happened to her to make her like this?!

Just hug her stupid! I slowly wrap my arms around her and squeeze her as hard as I could and turn her around so that she is crying into my chest.

"Don't you fucking dare do that. You know how fucking insane I would go without you in my life? I know the others care a shit load about you, and I do too. Tell me, just tell me what's wrong..."

I can feel her slowly stop crying, little by little. It feels like a year before she stops crying. She raises her head up and looks at me. I look down at her, still having her wrapped up in my arms.

She sniffles a little. "You mean that?"

"Of course I do." she puts her head back on my chest and cries even more.

"I- I don't know what to fuckin' do anymore..." she cries into my chest.

"Don't curse, it doesn't suit you Tiff." I say, she looks up at me and smiles weakly.

I brush her hair out of her face and see the tear stains down her face. I kiss her forehead and pick her up. She wraps her arms around my neck and cuddles into my chest.

I walk into her room and lay her down on her bed. She falls asleep and cuddles into my arms. What the fuck am I gonna tell her when she wakes up? What the hell is she gonna tell me? What happened...?

Kate POV

"Kate... OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Keep doing that!" I hear Soda moan and I decide to go check it out. I walk in his room and I can tell he doesn't hear me.

I walk up and start kissing his neck. He was so shocked and that gave me the opportunity to grab his thick, hard, long member in my hand and stroke it, swirling my finger around the head. He moans and throws his head back.

He starts to watch me stroke it and I dip my head down to tease him and he groans and I look at him with the most innocent face.

"UHHH, uhhh, uhhhh. Only good boys get head." He pouts as I squeeze his balls and cum fills my mouth. I swallow it and kiss him and collapse on the bed. "HUG ME!"

Two-Bit POV

"Hey guys, mind if I watch?" The beautiful Raven comes over to me and Steve playing Poker.

"Sure honey, pop a squat!" she sits down next to me and watches intently as we play. After about ten games, we stop and Steve winks at me and walks away, back to our apartment.

Kelsey POV

I was in the middle of cleaning up the apartment when Dallas pulls me aside to talk to me. "I... I need help..." he slowly says.

"I'm not touching ANYWHERE-."

"Not THAT kinda problem! Jesus Christ... ANYWAY, I need help with TIFFANY!"

Whoops... I should've figured...

"What does she like to eat?" he asks me.

"Well, she'll eat basically anything, but if I had to choose, I think seafood."

"So... crabs, salmon, shrimp, filet mignon... that kinda shit?" I know he's sort of smart, but HOW, the HELL does he know what filet mignon is?!

"Yeah ANYWAY-."

"I have another question... why is she so depressed? Every time I ask her, she starts breaking down crying..."

"Oh... that... Dallas, I don't really know how to tell ya this but... her father... died in a war when she was five years old..." I slowly say to him. His face (for once) looks sincere.

"What does she like when she's depressed or sad?" he asks me.

"Well, for STARTERS, don't let her kill herself, she likes hugs, when you pet her hair... umm... well, with YOU, maybe lay with her... I don't know, BUT," she comes up into my face. "If you try ANYTHING at all without her permission, it's gonna be your grave..."

Johnny POV

Pony and I were making out on our bed. It just feels different this time... somehow. I wanna go all the way, I hope he feels the same way. I start to roam my hands up and under his shirt and gently pull it off.

"I think SOMEBODY'S excited, and it ain't you in particular Johnny cakes." Pony says as he places his hand roughly on my bulge. I moan loudly. He starts moving his fingers around.

"Johnny, are you sure?" he asks me.

"Just take me now..." I moan. Pony groans.

"I've never actually done anything like this. I love you, Johnny," the only reasonable response I could think of was, " I love you so much and now I'm gonna ride you like the Pony you are." He groans gutturally and starts to undress us.

Pony POV

I don't take a second thought to stripping us and throwing him on the bed and fiercely frenching him for a little bit. I feel a little insecure, but that is all taken away when I feel my cock being pumped and I reciprocate that action.

I feel Johnny mount me and prep me. I'm so tight and turned on and just ugh. I physically cannot right now. I feel his head probing my entrance and I feel tears coming to my eyes at the pain.

He kisses them away and pushes in further. He pumps me and I cum soon after and Johnny makes sure he gets it all up even eating my ass. I feel so relieved after that.

"Fuck, I love you so much Johnny," I'm literally shaking and I can't wait until we can do this again.

Dallas POV

It's around nine o'clock when I head back over to the girls apartment. I walk down the hallway and knock on Tiff's door. "Tiff?" I walk into her room and close the door. I see her propped up on her bed staring into space.

"Tiff?" I say as I walk towards her. "You feelin' okay...? Kelsey told me what happened, I'm so sorr-."

"No, I don't need your pity... I get enough of that already..." she says. The moonlight comes in through the window and her tears glisten. I climb into bed with her and wrap my arm around her and pull her into my chest. She begins to cry.

"There ya go baby, let it out, let it all out... I'm here, don't worry." I pet her hair a little.

After about a minute, she looks up at me and I wipe her tears away. She smiles weakly which makes me smile.

"There it is, there's that beautiful smile of yours." I say to her.

She loses the smile. "...would you really miss me?" she ask.

"Of course! I couldn't even IMAGINE a world without you. You are the most tuffest girl I've ever known. You didn't deserve to lose someone so close to you that early in life... no one deserves that."

"... stay with me?" she asks quietly.

"I wouldn't think of anything I'd rather do."
