How To Save A Life

Chapter 6

Malia quickly pulls away. "I'm sorry, i shouldn't have done that." Kylie shakes her head. "No, no. It's ok." "No, it's not. I shouldn't have kissed you. I don't even know if you like girls. I should have asked first, I'm sorry." Kylie holds her hands. "Malia, it's ok. Really. And i do like girls, I'm bisexual." She shrugs. "Oh.... I'm a lesbian." Malia nods. "Ok." Kylie smiles. "That's ok. Trust me, no one in this apartment is straight. Ruby is pansexual. And Mel was too."

"Speaking of Mel, i hope you don't mind that i came with you guys today?" Kylie shakes her head. "Of course not. I think she would have liked you." She smiles. Malia looks at her. "Really?" She nods. "Yeah, i think you two would have gotten along pretty well." Malia smiles sadly. "Well, maybe in another life, i would have gotten to meet her." Kylie nods. "Yeah....anyways, what was one thing that you always wanted to do but never got the chance to?" Kylie randomly asks her. "Uh....i don't know...." "Oh come on, there's gotta be one thing." Malia thinks. "Hmm, I've always wanted to go to Disney." Kylie smiles. "Really? Well i just so happen to have a pass. You wanna go today?" She asks. Malia's eyes light up. "Can we?" She asks. Kylie nods. "Of course."

They both get up and out their shoes on. "Wait....should we invite Ruby?" Kylie shakes her head. "Absolutely not, Disney was her and Mel's first date. It won't end well." Malia nods. "Got it." "Let me just say goodbye to her real quick?" Kylie asks. "Yeah, of course." Kylie goes and knocks on her door gently. "Ruby?" She hears shuffling from the other side until the door opens. "Yes?" Ruby opens the door, tears stains evident on her face. "Um, Malia and i were gonna go out. Are you gonna be ok by yourself?" She asks. Ruby nods. "I'll be fine. You go, have fun!" She smiles, even though it doesn't reach her eyes. "You sure?" Ruby nods. "Yes, please go, have fun for the both of us. For all of us." She mumbles. Kylie nods. "Ok, i will. Call me if you need anything, ok? Anything." Ruby nods. "I got it." Kylie hugs her tight before grabbing her keys and heading out with Malia.

"You're not worried about leaving her alone?....after we just visited Mel's grave?" Malia carefully asks. "If Ruby were to commit suicide, she would have done it by now." Kylie sighs. "Did you ever think that she would?" They get in the car and Kylie starts it up. "I used to, but it's been a while now and i think she's getting better." Kylie nods. "I want to set her up with someone but then I don't cause i know it'll just be a waste of time." Kylie hands Malia her phone. "Here, play whatever you want." Malia smiles as she starts playing random songs. They reach Disney after a while and head inside. "Alright, what did you wanna do fi-" Malia grabs her arm and pulls her to the first ride she sees. They go around riding almost every ride they could, eating all the snacks and taking pictures in the photo booth.

After spending hours at Disney, they decide to call it a day and head back home. "Hey, can i stay with you tonight?" Malia asks her. Kylie nods. "Yeah, of course." She unlocks the door and slowly walks in. The lights were off, so she assumed Ruby was asleep. They both take off their shoes and make their way to Kylie's room. "Did you wanna watch a movie?" Kylie asks. "Sure." Malia gets comfortable on the bed as Kylie grabs the remote. They put on some random movie as they cuddled in bed. "Kylie?" "Yes, Malia?" "I wanna really start living again....i figured no one would notice if i was gone before but....now....seeing you and Ruby....i don't think i wanna die just yet." She tears up. Kylie hugs her tight. "Good, cause I don't want you to die either." They end up falling asleep together. Ruby, in the other room, lays with her old photo album opened on her bed. "Am i ever gonna move on from you?" She whispers as she cries.
