Good For Eachother- Donnie Darko

4.

Next morning:

(Y/n pov)

Everyone was outside, sleep deprived and scared. The whole block had gathered around as they were getting the engine out of the house. We were all worried that they would find Donnie at the bottom, we were all anxious and waiting, hoping he wouldn't be there. After a bit we saw someone walking over past the police tape, it was Donnie. "Donnie!" His mom exclaimed as she hugged him. "Oh my god we thought you were crushed" she said. "What?" he said. He looked at me and his face softened a bit. "Are you ok? What happened?" He asked as he came over to me holding my shoulders. "I should be asking you that question, and why are you asking me?" I said as i looked at him. "Your face is puffy and red" he said. "Well i was crying duh, that's probably why" i said as i moved a bit. "You still look beautiful" He said as he pulled me a bit closer. I smiled as i looked up at him with relief "I thought you got crushed, that's why. We were all so worried" i said as i looked at him still upset at the fact that he could have been dead. "I'm fine y/n, don't worry. But what even happened?" he asked. "We all woke up to a loud crashing noise last night and it turns out a plane engine fell into your room" i said. "So, if i didn't leave at night, i would have been crushed" he said. "Yes Donnie, and where were you last night?" I asked as i pulled away so i could see his face, "i went on a walk" he said. "That's actually something i wanted to talk to you about, but not here" he began to say. "Huh? I asked. "I'll tell you later" he said as he held me by the shoulders and we walked over to our family's. "So what's gonna happen?" Donnie asked his parents. "Well, we can't talk about this or what's happening, and they want to put us in a hotel while they fix the house" he said. "a hotel? Are you sure you want to do that?" I asked. "Well we don't really have anywhere to stay the meanwhile" Mr. Darko said. "Well, you guys could stay with us" i said. "You'll have to talk to your mom about that" Mr Darko said. "She would totally agree, if you guys talk about it I'm sure she will let you guys stay over at our place" i said. He hummed in response and walked over to my mom. They all began to speak and i leaned into Donnie a bit more as he hugged me. "You really worried me" i said to him. "I'm here yn" he said as he held me closer and i hugged him back.

We let go of eachother after a bit and Eddie came over to us. "Your stuff is ruined so we're gonna have to go to the store and buy you some uniforms and clothes" he said to Donnie. "Would you be a dear and help your mom and rose pack some stuff while me and Donnie go to the store?" He asked me. "of course" i said as i walked away waving goodbye to go help.

((Donnie pov:))

Me and my dad got in the car and sat in some silence for a bit. "So.. yn, you two uh.. dating?" He asked me. "were going yea" i replied. "Well she seems like a sweet girl, and she helps around. Be a good wife too" he said with a chuckle i just rolled my eyes. We started to drive off to the mall when he spoke up again. "We're staying at their house so, i don't want you two to ya know, rufhouse or anything" he said. "God dad your so gross" i said to him as he chuckled. "I'm just saying ya know, you guys are teenagers and lord knows how i was at your age" he said. "Ew dad" i said with disgust as he kept laughing..

((Y/n pov))

I had helped mom and rose grab some things and put them in the guest bedroom. "Your such a doll" rose said to me, pinching my cheek as we were finishing up. I smiled to myself and followed them out to the hallway. "So, how are we gonna do this? Are we all gonna share a room?" Rose asked. "I'm afraid so" my mom said but suddenly brightened up. "Unless" she began, "we do have a pull out couch in the garage, maybe we could put it in y/n's art room and Donnie and Samantha could sleep there" my mom said. "would that be ok with you? I don't want to barge in on your space" she said. "Oh it's no trouble, i have plenty of space in there, I'll start bringing out the couch" i said as i began to walk down the stairs to the garage.

When i got to the garage i began to try and push the couch. I was able to push it, but it was pretty hard to get it through the door. However, after about an hour and a half we got the couch out of the garage and up the stairs. "Wow, that was a workout" my mom said. "It really was" rose said. "It's ok, i can take it from here you guys do whatever you need too" i said. "Are you sure? You don't need more help?" Rose asked. "I'm sure" i said as i began to push the couch down the hall to my art room. "She's a strong girl" i heard rose say, "i know" my mom replied and they laughed as they walked into the guest bedroom. I pushed the couch into the room and started to map out where i wanted my art things to be and the couch. I was standing there for about 5 minutes trying to figure out where to put my things and was talking to myself as i started to think of where exactly to put everything. This went for a while of me being in my own head seeing where to put this couch that i hadn't noticed Donnie at the doorway. "What are you doing?" He asked and i jumped. "Don't sneak up on me like that" i had told him half joking half serious. "I'm seeing where to put this couch in the room" i said as i turned back around and looked at the room again. "For what?" He asked walking up to me. "For you and Samantha to sleep in" i said as i began to push the couch to the wall where there's most space. "I can help with that" he said. "It's ok, i got it" i replied as i pushed it against the wall and stood up. "Looks cozy" he said as he looked at it. "I know, sit" i said for him to see how comfy it really is. "That's actually pretty comfortable" he said. "I know, AND-" i began to say, "it's a pull out couch" i said taking off the cushions and revealed the bed under. "Good, i didn't want to sleep cramped on the couch with Sam" he said and helped me put the cushions back. When we finished we sat on the couch and hugged for a bit.

We stayed like that for a while and i felt myself getting sleepy and yawned. "Getting sleepy?" He asked me as he pulled me in closer. "Yeah kinda" i said as i snuggled my face more into him. We stayed like that for a bit till i heard my mom call our names. "Donnie! Yn! We're gonna go get lunch come downstairs!" She yelled and we sat up. " We can nap when we come back" he said as he held my hand to get up. We walked downstairs and my mom was already about to leave when she saw us. "what were you guys doing?" She asked a bit serious. "We almost fell asleep on the couch" i told her as i rubbed my eyes. "Why?" I asked. "Go fix your hair honey, it's a mess" she said chuckling and left the house. I looked at Donnie who was holding a laugh and i looked in the bathroom. "You were really going to let me walk out of the house like this??" I asked donnie. " I mean i didn't notice" he said laughing a bit. "Yeah haha, very funny" i said as i playfully smacked him and went to brush my hair.

Once i was done we walked out of the house and Into my mom's car. "Hello rose" i said when i saw donnies mom. "Hello yn, how was your guys nap?" She asked me. "Very nice, the couch i brought in for Sam and Donnie is very comfy" i said as i put my seatbelt on. "That's nice, at least they won't be sleeping on the floor" she said with a chuckle.

After about 10 minutes we arrived at a restaurant and got down. It was actually pretty nice and donnies dad and sisters where already there waiting for us at a booth. "Hi yn!" Samantha said. "Hi Sam" i said smiling as she wiggled out of the booth and hugged me. We all sat down and i was between my mom and Samantha because she wanted to sit with me and Donnie was next to her. For the rest of that period we ate and talked and had a great time and were getting along really well. Every now and then i would catch Donnie staring at me, but only because i would stare at him..
