Kennedy sighed as she let Marc's words sink in. She really did care for Royce,but, she couldn't accept the fact that he was a ghost. Part of her thought that shouldn't matter,but, the other part thought she deserved better. She thought that she atleast deserved somone alive, she wasn't so sure anymore. She still has the sound of Royce crying in her headand the sound makes something hurt deep in her chest.
Tears started to form in her eyes and she sighed, she couldn't stop crying. Sure she liked Royce,but, should she be crying like this? Nothing made sense anymore. She just wanted to dig a hole and bury herself in deep.
Just then there was a soft knock on the door, she quickly composed herself the best that she could. She opened the door to see Wes standing there with a bowl of ice cream. She moved to the side so he could walk in, once he was in she closed the door again.
"I brought comfort food." He said with a smile.
"Thanks Wes." Kennedy said with a smile as she took the bowl.
"I heard you were feeling kind of low, do you want to talk about it?"
"No."
"Well don't worry I wont make you,but, remember I'm there if you need a friend."
"Okay I'll remember that."
They sat there in silence for a while before Wes said, "Well remember what I said. I'll be down the hall if you need me. Well actually I'll be right next door cause I'll be in my room."
Wes stood up to leave and as he went to reach for the doorknob Kennedy quickly asked him to stay. He walked back over to the bed and sat down.
"If you haven't noticed Royce and I are no longer speaking to eachother."
"Yeah I noticed you guys weren't hanging out like you have been."
"Royce fell for me."
"Oh... did you fall for him too?"
"No...well I don't think so."
"Sounds to me that it's a possobility that you did."
"Doesn't it seem wrong though?"
"How is it wrong?"
"I mean he's dead, shouldn't I be with someone who's alive?"
"It doesn't matter if he's dead or alive, if you have feelings for him then none of that should matter."
"Royce told me he loved me."
"And what did you say?"
"I told him I didn't love him back."
"Oh...all these thoughts were running through your head and you got scared, huh?"
"Am I stupid?"
"No, it's just your fear took over."
"I feel so horrible and I feel like the biggest bitch on earth."
"You're not a bitch Kennedy, trust me you're not. You need to do some serious thinking about your feelings towards Royce and then let your heart lead you the rest of the way."
Kennedy smiled for the first time in almost two days. She pulled Wes in for a tight embrace and whispered "Thanks" into his ear. She pulled back and gave him a grateful smile. He stood up and told her to get some rest. He kissed her on the forehead and walked to the door.
"Thanks again." Kennedy said.
"Anytime, I was just glad I was able to help."
"Oh you did, you helped alot."
Wes smiled before leaving the room. Kennedy let out a sigh then laid down on the bed. She felt blessed to have a friend like Wes, he was so understanding and just simply being her friend. After about ten minutes Kennedy fell asleep with her conversation with Wes on mind.
