he pulls the rest of the sweater over his head and places it on the table, swapping it with the tank top. you stare at his arms.. his biceps, his hands; gripping the soft material of the shirt. you're mesmerized. he slips on the shirt and puts his arms through the jean jacket's holes. quickly, he looks back at you as you try to hide the fact you were looking. 

you swipe your sweater and slip into it quickly, looking down at the couch. 

'oh my god, what if he saw that' you think to yourself 

you turn around and notice he's now in-front of you, looking down into your eyes. 'when did he get here?' 

he smiles softly as you look up at him 

"let's go" he says, still smiling 

you both start walking towards the door as you look at him, walking a bit infront of you. you make it to the door and he opens it, stepping aside and letting you pass 

"thanks" you say softly

he smiles 

you walk out onto the front steps and make your way to the grass out front. he does the same and locks the door behind him. you both start walking alongside the sidewalk, talking and joking together. you start to remember taking walks with him when you two were younger. you smile. 

after walking for a while, you make it. "the secret spot" you two called it. a small opening in the edge of the forest. he crouches down and quickly gets dragged through a small hole in a bush, seemingly disappearing after. you stand there for a second, wondering if he was playing a trick, or actually got taken. 
 

you start to get worried 

"um.. vance?"no answer. 

"vance.."you whisper as you slowly crouch down and look into the hole. there were a bit of leaves covering it so you couldn't see through 

your heart starts to pound 

"vance.. vance come on" you say with a sorrow tone 
... "va-"
