URIAH'S POV
I go to her door and knock. Nothing. Good thing I learned how to pick a lock, well Zeke taught me. I put the hairpin in the lock and jiggle in the lock until I hear a click, it opens I go inside. I see her on the floor crying her eyes out. I feel my heartbroken.
"Christina." I whisper. She looks up at me. He eyes really red and puffy. I slide down on the floor next to her.
"Christina talk to me." I beg.
"I don't need to you've seen it on the news."
"I'm so sorry Christina." I look at her. "I really am." Then I just quiet. I look around her house. I see pictures of her and her family. They looked so happy. She's looking at them too. I never really got to know her story. I hesitate but I grab her hand. Its soft, warm and a little wet from her tears, but it feels nice. She looks up at me and I smile to trying to ease the awkwardness. She squeezes it back. I smile wider. I wonder how long I've been in here? It doesn't matter. I see the morning sun to start creeping through the curtains.
"You feel better." I ask. She shakes her head.
"No." She says. I understand its gonna take time. Hey, wait I have an idea.
"Hey if um you can come live with us." I say. She looks shocked.
"Really." She says. I nod.
"My parents would mind like what your going through of course and if you live here by yourself I will come live with you." She's looking at me. I start looking into her eyes and zone out. There big and so... beautiful.
"Uriah." I snap out of my thoughts.
"I will think about it but what am I gonna do with months of bills that need to be paid. Thi house has so much history and memories to just leave it all behind"
"Maybe um you can talk to your mom." Probably not the best answer.
"I don't know if I can." She says.
"I will go with you." She smiles.
"Thanks but you don't have too." She says.
"But I want too." We look at each other. I lean in. She's about to turn his face when I grab her cheeks and kiss her. She pulls away fast.
"Ummmmmmmmm." She mumbles.
"Sorry," I say looking down.
"Um, its okay just forget it." She whispers. I nod. Then I get up.
"Should we go um see your mom." Her eyes widen.
"Really." She says shocked. I nod. Then she gets up.
"Let's go." She says.
