Here I am... At bed rest. The door nob starts to wiggle. Chris comes in secretly... Quietly. "What are you doing here this late?" I ask in a whisper.
"I'm gonna be here for you." He whispers back as he crawls in a spot next to me. "How's bed rest?"
"It's... Boring. Figure out who shot me?"
"I took it to Wes... And he looked at it, it was the Kings."
"Why would they-"
"The thing is I got a message through my window... A note tied to a gun... I got a new gun! But."
"What did the note say?"
"I will do anything to make you stay away from her... But nothing will."
"Chris if they are threatening you and your family because of me-"
"I don't wanna leave you."
"Ever since you met me... My life was at risk? Chris, I don't know if we-"
"Don't say it." He pleaded.
"-I don't want your family in danger... More than it is."
"Caroline-"
"I can't." I started crying.
He wrapped his arms around me. "I can't lose you." He sniffled... Was he about to cry? Or was he already?
