I lay in my bed, just past two in the morning, the empty spaces next to me felt like miles and miles of nothing and I wished for a smaller bed so I didn't feel so alone.

I reached over to my phone and decided to text Reagan even though she didn't text me yet I wanted her to either go to sleep to a sweet message, or wake up too one.

-I just want you to know I'm thinking about you, this bed never gets comfortable with you gone, I miss your face and I can't wait to kiss you and hold you and love you. I love you Reagan, so much.

I locked my phone and tucked it away on my nightstand, If it didn't vibrate I didn't want to know, if it did I'd want to wake up in the morning to it so it could make my day a little brighter.

I slid from bed and escaped in my studio, the silent house kept my hand quietly sliding over the canvas. A soft knock came to the door and I could only wonder who it was.

"Yeah?"
I peered into the hall.

Georgia stared back at me biting her lip.
"Is this a bad time?"

I stared at the Reagan look alike and motioned her inside.

"How are you here?"
I smiled

Georgia held a book under her arm and blushed.
"Brooke and I - we have been dating and tonight was our first date night and she took me too this nice restaurant and I seen the light on and I wanted to check on you"

"You're dating Brooke?"
I smiled.

Georgia nodded shyly.

"She was so nervous when she first met you, it was cute"
I smiled.

"Maybe you can tame a little bit of the beast"
I joked.

"I read her to sleep, we were outside in the park and her head was in my lap and she was looking up at the stars and I was reading , and she just drifted off to sleep"
Georgia smiled.

"That's adorable, it warms my heart"

"I like her so much Katie"
Georgia confessed.

"Then be with her, don't let anything stop you"

She nodded and came next to me.
"My sister comes home in a few months, and I know she doesn't know hardly anything about me anymore, but I want to tell her now"

"She will understand and accept you"
I hugged her.

Georgia pulled away and showed me a book.
"I guess I better get home, I got a book to read"

"You can spend the night if you want, I get lonely in my bed at night, it would be nice to have someone to talk to, like a sleepover"

"Talk about girls?"
She laughed, smiling almost identical to her sisters.

She nodded
"Okay"

That night I laid in bed talking to the miniature version of the girl I loved. Her thoughts were stuck in books, she was as much of a hopeless romantic as I was and I knew she was going to sweep Brooke off her feet, when Leah said she fell in love young it only gave me hope that Georgia has found someone worth growing with and exploring with.

"Have you ever kissed a boy?"
Georgia snickered.

I smiled into the dark and shook my head.
"Boys are gross"

"Boys are gross"
Georgia and I both began laughing.

"Favorite book?"
I asked.

I could hear Georgia thinking and suddenly she whispered.
"The perks of being a wallflower, because its like my whole entire life in literature"

"I am a wallflower too , I look at things and take them in and I won't say anything at all"

"It's better to listen than speak all the time"

"Should we listen to the song asleep?"
I snickered.

Georgia laughed
"One day I'm going to make a mixtape for someone and put my favorite song on their twice, and then they'll know"

"Brooke"
I whispered.

Georgia nudged me
"Maybe, but my music is like your studio, you just won't get it till I show you"

"What is your favorite song?"
I asked, hopeful she trusted me enough to tell me.

"102 by Matt Healy"

"Who's he?"

"The lead singer from a band called the 1975"

I thought to myself as to how the lyrics would go, that's until Georgia sung them lowly next to me.

But on this shirt

I found your smell

And I just sat there for ages

Contemplating what to do with myself.

I felt the lump in my throat tighten, Georgia was broken, and nobody even knew. And it pained me too see her act so freely and smile so happily when on the inside she just wanted things to have order and everything to be where they need to be.
