Callie's P.O.V.

"I'm afraid your friend is in a coma, and we don't know when she will wake up, or if she ever will. The bullet hit o close to her heart. I'm sorry." The doctor says. I feel something inside of me crack a little. Sophie has been one of my really good friends since she was a freshman, and I was a sophomore. I pulled out the necklace I was wearing, a mood necklace, an owl, me and Sophie's friendship necklaces. Hers is a little smaller since mine says 'big sis' and hers says 'little sis'. Because she is, and always will be my little sister to me. I have a little sister, but Sophie of course is different.

I feel strong arms snake around my waist as a small tear escapes my eye. I didn't realize I was holding back tears. I knew it was Harry, of course, behind me. I feel him press me closer to his chest, lean back a little resting against him for a moment.

"Wanna go get some food? You haven't eaten for a little bit" Harry whispers in my ear. I nod my head in response as I turn around to face him. He intertwines his fingers with mine, and we walk down the hall together silently.

We make it to the cafeteria, I don't like cafeteria food at hospital's, but it seems like its my only choice at the moment. We walk up to the menu that they have on the side, displayed for people in line to see. (but of course, there is no line since cafeteria food is gross) I glance at the menu, and just decide on a burger with fries, and a large drink. Harry gets the same, and we both quietly sit down at an empty table in the corner of the room.

I pick at my food with a spork, and just stare off into blank space. I feel something touch my hand, making me jump a bit. I look down, and see Harry's hand on top of mine. I look back up at him, and stare into his green eyes, as he stares into my eyes.

"you okay?" He asks with worry heavy in his eyes. I nod in reply.
"you should really use your words, where is my crazy, feisty, talkative Callie?" He says winking at me, trying to lighten up the mood a bit. I can't help but smile just a little.

"I'll give you an A for effort Harold" I say as I continue to pick at my food with a spork. I finally put the spork down and eat a few fries and take a sip of my drink, then I just go back off staring into blank space.

Harry's P.O.V.

Callie goes back off staring into blank space, since shes upset, I feel a strong need to make her feel better. It takes a little bit, but she finally finishes her food. I finished my food way before her, Gosh, this is way to depressing. I know her good friend is in a coma, but I need to lighten the mood. Even if it's just a little bit.

When she finishes off the very last bit of her food, I grab her hand and pull her with me. Not really giving her a choice to stay or not, but this needs to be done. I keep pulling her till we reach the exit, then she yanks her arm from my grasp.

"what the hell Harry, where are we going?" Callie demands
"Just trust me, okay?" This time I offer my hand instead of just grabbing hers. She puts her hand in mine, then I continue to pull her with me.

I lead across the street, and we run through an alleyway, and behind three different restaurants before we get to where I'm leading Callie. We finally reach the meadow, its filled with seriously the softest grass ever.

She turns and gives me a confused look. I give her an evil grin, then push her, she falls in the grass with a yelp, but instantly starts giggling.

"its like laying on a soft tickley pillow!" Callie laughs. I get an evil thought in my head. I reach out to grab a piece of the tall grass, but I feel Callie grab my ankle with both of her hands, making me trip and fall next to her. Luckily I still get a piece of grass on my way down. I sit up and reach over her, and wave the grass across her face, causing her to laugh harder.

"does that tickle?" I ask smirking,
"YES! STOP!" Callie laughs, her face turning red from laughing so hard. I'm about to tickle her again when she grabs my hand, and pushes me to the ground, and rolls over so she is straddling me while I lie on my back. She grabs both my hands, and holds them above my head.

"Stop it Hazza!" she says, trying to catch her breathe from laughing. I smirk, then roll us over so she is lying on her back, and I am hovering just above her, our lips just millimeters apart.

"make me" I smirk, and thats all it took for her to grab my face and pull it towards her, crashing our lips together. I automatically respond back to the kiss, my mouth moving on its own. She wraps her arms around my neck, and I, keeping one hand holding myself up so I don't crush her, slide my right arm underneath her, pulling her closer by the small of her back.

I bite her bottom lip, asking for entrance, which she gives me freely. My tongue slides into her mouth, tangling with hers. Before I can deepen this kiss any further, Callie rolls us over again so I am on my back, and her straddling me. She pulls back from the kiss and smirks. Then I realize, the piece of fluffy grass is no longer in my hands.

She waves it in my face tickling me, I scrunch my face, trying not to laugh.
looks like someone is happy, I smile to myself, mission accomplished.
