Cole:Look Lilith I'm sorry I shot you I thought you were an intruder
Lilith:It's fine,but why were you avoiding me?
Cole:I was afraid you were gonna say you hate me
Lilith:I could never hate you,if I was you I would have done the same thing,Alice told me yo7 snared your blood to save me
Cole:It was the least I could do,but I could have killed you! The nurse said the bullet was really close to your heart I
could have ruined everything
Lilith:Listen that didn't happen so we don't have to think about it,I'm still here aren't I?
Cole:But-
Lilith:Cole,I'm ok,I'm not going anywhere
Cole:That's not something you can promise,I mean what if you say that and the next day you have a heart attack and die? Or you get hurt during a game? Or hell you have a heart attack and get hurt during the game at the same time!? Saying your not going anywhere is like a cop promising their kids or their husband or wife that they won't die,it might seem like that but all of a sudden bam you get a call saying they got shot and they died,you jinx it when you say that,like when your favorite soccer team is winning and you say their gonna win it and then they lose
Lilith:Listen to me Cole,and I mean really listen,I'm fine
I feel tears building up
I look down
Not wanting Lilith to see me cry
Lilith:Look at me Cole
I don't
Lilith uses her index finger to push my head up
I felt like I was at the hospital again
I've never felt this way about Lilith ever
But I grabbed her shoulders and kissed her
I thought she would pull away
But she didn't
She grabbed the back of my neck and pulled me closer
It felt like an eternity went by before she pulled away
Lilith:Feel better?
I slightly nod
I turn to go find Miles
Lilith:Cole
I look back
Lilith:I'm always here if you need to talk
I just nod again and walk off
