Thanks for reviewing! It means the world to me!

Disclaimer: I own plot and nothing else.

I sat, silent in the loveseat in front of the T.V., blankly staring at it, mentally going over the plan Simon and I had come up with.

We would wait three days, to assure the other we wouldn't leave. Then Simon would sneak over to the apartment around one, with his backpack which he was to pack the day before. We would go from there, in the car, and figure out where he could be.

I had to admitt, it was a pretty lame plan. But it was better than not trying at all.

Most of the day, I was in bed, trying to sleep problems away. But they didn't disappear. I doubted they would.

Around eight in the afternoon, Tori texted me.

Hey Chloe. I'm sorry about Derek-I know if it wasn't for me, he'd be here. But he'll be okay. Everything will be okay. Just don't do anything rash.

Lazily, I set the phone down on the bedside table. I was too sleepy to text back. Even then, what would I say? That it was fine? That I was fine?

I didn't even know if I could pass that one off.

I turned in the bed, and closed my eyes.

I thought about Rae, acting so weird. I didn't understand why. I missed the old Rae. I missed my old life. Most of all, I missed Derek.

With Derek filling my mind, I drifted off into a dreamless (thank God) sleep.

When I woke, it was dark outside. The air was sticky, and my head was spinning. There was an annoying beeping nose, and it took my a while to realize it was the alarm clock. I glared at it. 5:45, the usual time when Derek would get up, kiss my cheek, and head out to start breakfast, a skill Mr. Bae and I had taught him when we first moved in.

We had sacrificed a few pancakes in the process.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but smile. I had a lot of good memories with Derek. And I was determined we would have more.

I knew he was out there. Even if I didn't know where, I knew he was trying to do what was right. More than likely, he was trying to save us all.

Still, he could've let me in on his little plan.

But all that was in the past. Tomorrow Simon and I would set out to find Derek.

Like I said guys, SHORT chapter. Just cause this might not be so evident, When Chloe falls asleep its Monday, when she wakes up it's Tuesday. Anyway,

Comments? And you will find out about Rae soon, so look forward to that!
