Yesterday was a mess. Let me explain how it was a mess.

--

By the time Caleb came into the cabin once again, I was still in his bed.

"Hey, that's not your bed. Will you go to yours? That's would be nice." He said.

Why am I still crying?

I looked at me and quietly went into my own bed.

"Hey, are you going to take a shower?" He asked me. I didn't reply, so he just went in.

I yelled in frustration, and packed my bags now. I just want to leave this hell hole already. Go back to an uneasy life, where my mum still lives with that asshole I call father, and my brother who has to suffer.

--

It was morning and had already left. It was pretty early, around 8:30. I didn't want to be here any longer.

I wish I could say some thing to Caleb before I left, but when it was too late. I was going to leave a note saying, 'I'm sorry for being an ass, but you kept me safe, you kept me sane, you kept me honest, you kept me alive. Thanks for all the memories. Have fun with your life.
But I decided not to leave a note because I know how he would feel and I didn't want to make him suffer more than what he already has.

"Hey kiddo!" My aunt said excitedly. "We're going to stop buy a new friend of mine, house." She said. I could care less. So I just nodded and put on some Sleeping With Sirens.

--

"Go wash up, we're going to their house. She invited us to dinner, so why the heck not?" she said smiling. "They have a son that is about your age."

I smiled and thought, 'Maybe I'll meet the guy and stop thinking about Caleb.' I smiled and took a shower.

Once I was finished with my shower, I went into my room and picked out an outfit to wear. When I finally decided, I had it down to a Sleeping With Sirens tee (that came in the mail with their newest album Madness), a dark blue flannel, black skinnies, and my black Vans.

I decided to stay in my room until the dinner started.

I wonder how Caleb is holding up.

I should stop worrying about him. He's probably doing better than me, that's for sure.

--

It was time to see who these people were but I didn't want to go until my aunt told me so.

We were just waiting in the front porch step, knocking. Soon enough a woman came out introducing herself. She invited us in, and we stood at the door.

A boy that I see, whom looks very similar to Caleb comes in, looking at the floor the entire time. When he got to the table, he looked up, and we made eye contact. It was Caleb.

There was a loud crash and I looked down to see the casserole dish on the floor.

"CALEB!" His mother yelled.

"I-I'm so sor-rry mom. I-I'll clean i-it up r-right away!" He said stuttering.

I just looked at him as he cleaned the mess he made. Looks like karma hit you well.

"Ughh!" His mother sighed in frustration. "Are you guys okay, if I make a quick meal? It'll probably take at least 45 minutes." She said tapping her foot impatiently.

"Uh yeah. It's fine. We'll just wait in the living room." My aunt said smiling, as we walked to the living room. "Actually I can help you and Link here can go hang out Caleb. Right Link?" She said as she elbowed my in the side.

"Yeah, I can." I said with a smirk.

"Okay! Caleb, show Link up to your room, and talk for a while!" His mother said excitedly.

He groaned as we walked up the stairs and entered his room.

"Nice room." I say looking around the walls, there were a few pictures of Lana Del Rey hung up. There was a bed at the one of the corners of the room, on the other side of where the bed was placed, there was a small television place on top of a small cabinet. Next to it there was a bigger cabinet that held his clothes and what not. On the right side of the bed there was a bin that held in dirty clothing.

Although his room was sort of messy, his room felt comfortable, homey, and at ease. I like how it felt, I got a good vibe from it.

He walked into his room sitting next on his bed. He patted a spot near him, motioning me to sit. I calmly walk over to him, taking the spot near him.

There was an awkward silence. "Soo... Do you uh, wanna hear some music?" He asked me standing up and going to his computer, putting in Lana Del Rey Summer Time Sadness.

"How about we listen to Sleeping With Sirens 2 Chord. I promise you'll love it." I said as I put the song in on the computer. (A/N I suggest to play the song rn!!)

I cleared my throat and began to sing along. (These are the lyrics you can skip this if you want)

Standing in a hallway
Walls explode with sounds of a fight, yeah
Searching for a reason I don't if I'll make it out alright
She said shed leave a thousand time I think tonight, I'd actually take flight
And as she passes her things I see her look at me with tears in her eyes

She says I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving
I'm staying here
I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving
Till we make it there
Woah

I remember that we always
Remember that we always were so strong
Use to feel so alive now I don't remember living for so long
She said she's tried a thousand times but she's always feared
And I'm already gone
If we could go back to how it was before
I promise I would never do you wrong
No

I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving
I'm staying here
I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving
Till we make it there
I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving
I'm staying here
I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving
Till we make it there

I'm staring at your pictures
Figure out where we went wrong
If you would be my guiding light
And even in our darkest times, we find strength to carry on
So I'm not leaving
I'm not leaving till we're home
Whoa

I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving
I'm staying here
I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving
Till we make it there
No, No, No, No
I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving
I'm staying here
Cause I'm not leaving, I'm not leaving
Till we make it there

Give me one more chance to love you so
Won't you please
Won't you please just come back home

"How was it?" I asked. Caleb just looked at me while I blushed. "Well I'm going to check on my aunt and your mom." I said as I patted his lap and walked out the door, back to the kitchen.

-A/N hi guys! I hoped you liked that song. It's beautiful and I always get chills when I hear it. lmao

BTW THE PERSON WHO'S SINGING IS A GUY.

But I'll see you guys whenever ❤️❤️
