A/N: I'm so dumb, you guys don't have to wait. Forgive me? Here anyways :) The X Archer I'm sorry I thought you meant to wait.
I break the silence, "Where's Nick?" Luke's eyes look like they were about to break apart. I look to Kenny and he's just staring at me in my eyes. Kenny responds, "Clem, this is going to hurt you... well he uhh..." I put sorrow in my eyes and Luke finishes his sentence, "He died in there..." I widen my eyes and stand up I whimper, "I thought he was with you, Luke..." Luke stands up and his eyes were about to cry, he turns around. I worriedly ask, "Luke?..." He turns around and he was about to hit me, but he smashes it into the tree. What was he about to do? I've seen him mad, worried, strong, never sad. I was about to walk up to him until Luke responds, "Kenny, get Clem out of here... I can't hurt her..." Kenny grabs my shoulders and I shrug it off. I go up and hug Luke the hardest I could. I close my eyes and explain, "Luke?...I know this is hurting you.. it's hurting me too... you're strong.. you have to keep going..." I feel Luke's arm wrap around me.
I sit with Luke for hours, comforting him. Kenny walks over to us and hands me a bowl of oatmeal. I reply, "Luke? Have some." Luke shakes his head and argues, "No, I'm not hungry." I yell, "Luke, eat. Please... for me." Luke looks at me in the eyes and slowly takes the bowl and starts eating it. After a few minutes, Kenny brings some for me. I thank him and begin to eat some more. I get my water and hand Luke the bottle. He drinks most of it, then he hands me it. I drink the rest then put the water to the side. Luke and I finish the oatmeal and hand Kenny the bowls.
Luke holds my hand as I keep comforting him. He whimpers, "Doesn't Nick dying hurt you too?" I nod and respond, "Of course! But you new when it happened, I just found out, Luke. I was lucking not to die out there." Luke whispers, "I cant imagine losing you..." I respond, "You won't have to." Luke holds me as I look to Kenny setting up the tents. I respond, "You want to go sit at the fire?" A moment of processing, he nods. I get up and we walk to the log. Luke sits down next to me then I look at the sky. So, many beautiful colors, I poke Luke and he looks at me I reply, "Look, the sky is beautiful." He looks up to see, so many colors. Red, blue, green, lots of bright colors. Luke answers, "They are beautiful, but not close to as beautiful as you." I look at him, he smiles that adorable smile. I lean in and press my lips on his. The, I disband, letting us breathe. He places his hands on my neck and kisses me back. As, we kiss I hear Rebecca respond, "Okay, you two love birds." We disband and both look at her. I whisper, "I guess, it's bed time."
We go into bed as Luke pulls his sweats on. I pull his sweatshirt over me. Luke pulls the big blanket out and lay it on the ground. Then, my blanket to cover us. Luke lays down and opens his arms for me. I go into his arm and lay on his chest, and he wraps me up. He answers,"Hey, Clem. Thanks for helping me today." I smile and reply, "No problem." He murmurs,"I just...miss Nick." I respond,"We all do...you just miss him the worse." We stay quiet then I break the silence, "I love you, Luke." He answers,"I love you too, Clem." By that we fall asleep.
