Laci's pov
"Laci!Chris!good to see you guys!"Layne greeted us.we decided to visit Layne and Demri because,well...ok:the truth is that everyone is worried about him,we all are.Jerry especially.Sadie,their cat,purred and rubbed against my leg.I smiled and picked her up,"how are you guys?are you hungry?"Demri asked."we're fine,thanks Demri."i said,Layne sat down on the couch.I gave Chris a concerned look,he gave me a concerned look as well and nodded."how...are you guys feeling?"Chris asked them,"we're fine,"Demri said."why are you asking?"Layne asked,"we're just..."I trailed off.Sadie jumped out of my arms and went to Layne,she jumped onto his lap and rested there.

He looked down at her and petted her.they both looks exhausted,I sighed and rubbed my eyes."this is hopeless..I can't help them..I can't help Kurt...am I gonna lose them all?"I thought,"babe?"Chris said.I looked up and at him,Demri was behind him."are you ok Laci?"she asked,I shook a bit."perfectly fine:I mean,I'm losing my best friends right in front of my eyes,meanwhile my other friend refuses to get help for the sake of his child.why wouldn't I be fine?"I vented,Layne finally looked up and at me."Laci-"I cut him off,"forget it...just..."I trailed off."we should go now Chris,I don't wanna leave Lily with Eddie and Beth for too long."i said,Chris nodded.

Chris' pov
The ride home was quiet and awkward,but when I parked the car in front of Eddie and Beth's apartment building Laci began to cry.I unbuckled my seatbelt and immediately began to comfort her."it'll be ok Laci."I tried to assure her,"I-Is there really nothing we can do?"she asked.I didn't know what to say,she sniffed and wiped her tears."we should probably get Lily now."she said,I nodded.she unbuckled her seatbelt,we left the car and made our way to Eddie and Beth's apartment building.
