Sean's POV

"What do you mean? M-my dad?" I hear Megan say through the glass. Shes in interrogation. She just found out her dad was arrested for life, for trying to kill her. She didn't say anything. It broke my heart, seeing her so broken, the life sucked out of her body. After they were done she walked out. "Home." Was all she said. Mark and I nodded and we headed to the car.
"Not yours. Mine." She said as I drove. "I don't think you sho-" "I need to pack." She said. The ride was quiet, heart breaking, and filled with grief. This wasn't her. She was so bubbly and joyous around me. Now, she's... Depressed. I drive up her driveway, and let her out of the car. She went and unlocked the door. As we walked in, I noticed all of her dad's things were gone. Meaning it was an empty house. "Why do you need to pack?" I asked. I didn't get a response. I don't want to force her to do anything. Not even answering me.  "W-where is it?" She muttered. "Where is what baby?" I answered. She was rummaging through a box of her moms old things after she packed up her room. "No, no, no. No no no no no!" She kept repeating getting louder and louder. I rested my hand on her shoulder. "Babe, what are you looking for?" I asked again. "M-my mom's necklace. Its gone!" She finally answered, falling to her butt, with tears swelling up in her eyes. "S-she gave it to me.. B-before.." The look on her face made me pull her into a hug. "We'll find it." I promised.

Megans POV

Its gone. The only thing I had, from my mom. Gone. I bet that killer took it. I didn't know what to do. All I can think if is what I am going to do. I have no where to live, and my grandparents can't take me in. "Megan?" Sean said. "Huh?" I said. "I thought I lost you in your thoughts.. You were mumbling.. Something wrong? You've been sitting there, for an hour, while Mark and I finished your room." Sean explained. "Sorry. I just.. Have no where to go. My grandparents can't take me and I don't kno-" "Wait. Do you wanna move in with me?" Sean interrupted. I forgot. I have a boyfriend, well not yet anyways, and move into with. "Wait. But your apartment isn't big enough." I pointed out. Sean nodded his head. "Actually, I've been planning to move.. To America actually, somewhere near Mark." Sean said. "A-america?" I stuttered. I... Don't know if I can leave Ireland, it's all I know. "I mean while Mark was here visiting, he's been helping me look for a new place." He said, whilst Mark agreeing. "There is this pretty house across the street from mine. You'd love it. Three bedroom, two bath, and a patio, and inground pool." Mark explained. It does sound really nice. "I'll have to think about it. When are you planning on leaving?" I asked. "Next week or so..." He said. "Why so early?!" "Well, I was planning on telling you, but with everything happening, it just slipped my mind I guess." I don't think I have enough time to get ready to leave. "I don't know Sean.. That's a little early. Could you give me some time? You could go, I'll stay behind." I suggested. "But who will you stay with?" He asked. Good question... "Wait, I remember you talking about your old friend from high school.. Does he still live here?" Mark asked. Sean got a look on his face. Not the kind I've seen.. I nodded my head and dialed his number.

"Hey Megan! "
"Hey Jess!"
"What's up?! It's been a while!"
"Actually not so well, I need a favor.."
"Oh sure, and I heard about your dad. I was going to call but you know, I didn't know if I could, but what's the favor?"
"I need somewhere to stay for a few weeks.."
"Oh! Of course! Come over, and I'll be here!"
"Thank you so much, I gotta go, see you soon." I said and hung up.

"I don't know if I like this idea..." Sean said as I got out if the car, that was parked in my friends driveway. "Well it's a guy for one. Two I don't wanna leave you." Sean said grabbing my hands. "One, he's gay, two it's only for a few weeks." I said. "Oh. My. God!" I hear my best friend say. "You didn't tell me you were dating the one and only Sean Mcloughlin!" Sean giggled a little which of course made me smile. "Yea, that's me." He said. But we went technically dating... Or.. Are we?
