Thomas(The Safe Haven:Either:His P.O.V)
I just sat back and watched everyone laugh around the fire. If I'm being honest I tuned everyone out a while ago. There were still a lot of questions I was always thinking about. If I'm being honest the way everyone just moved on could be irritating at times.

Speaking of irritating I saw Y/N dancing around the fire. She laughed as she spun Aris around. She said something to him, and he nodded while clearly holding back his own laughter. I didn't care to think about it.

Then, I did. She walked over and sat directly next to me. I stared at her like she lost her mind. In fact, I think she might have. She was never fond of me to say the least so naturally I wasn't very fond of her.

"You never really look happy,"She spoke up, her voice slightly slurred. It was then that I understood the odd behavior, but I decided against saying anything about it. It just doesn't seem worth the trouble.

"You always look happy,"I shrugged, expecting gibberish to come out of her mouth. Instead, she just laughed again, something she did a lot.

"No. I'm just like really good at hiding my emotions. It's like super cool and bad. Nobody even knows what goes on in here,"She said, tapping her head. I just looked at her, not knowing how to react to that.

"You though, are good at hiding it. It's hard to tell, but you get all quiet. You do what you're doing now."

"What exactly am I doing?"I asked, trying to figure out what exactly was going on. She isn't in her right mind, but this was just over the top.

"You're over here, and we,"She said, pointing at the fire, "are over there,"She finished.

"Yeah. Maybe I just like being alone sometimes,"I shrugged.

"No. You look solum and all that. You my dear friend are hiding,"She said, patting my shoulder.

"Do you know who I am?"I asked slowly. No matter what it has to be pretty hard to forget you hate someone while talking to them.

"Mhm. You're Thomas. The one with the soft looking hair. I wanna touch it,"She slurred, actually running her fingers through my hair. In my mind I was just asking myself what was happening.

"Yep. I was right,"She commented, pulling her hand back.
"Are you an observer or something?"I questioned, as if she would be able to give me a proper answer.

"No. I just like seeing you. I'm surprised you haven't noticed that I'm always around you. You're smart,"She complimented.

I tried to actually think about what she just told me. Sure enough that did seem to happen, but I just assumed it was a coincidence. In fact, I think it's a good idea to keep assuming that.

"You're my favorite person,"She kept going. By now she was almost completely out of it.

"You should get to bed,"I suggested. She shakily stood up, nearly falling asleep as she did. Luckily, I managed to catch her.

"Come on. You should get some sleep,"I said, placing her arm over my shoulder. She leaned against me, seeming completely fine with this. I know I've been through a lot of weird things, but this was a whole other level.

"Do you ever think about how the world sucks?"She asked, still leaning against me.
"Yeah. All the time,"I answered honestly. It's not like she would remember in the morning.

"You don't suck though. No matter what I say you're great Thomas."

By now her words were almost incoherent. I just nodded as I helped her in her hut.

"You should stay the night,"She suggested.
"No. That's a bad idea,"I responded, helping her to her bed.

"Why?"She asked, seeming genuinely curious.
"Because,"I trailed off, not knowing exactly what to say.
