Nightingale (Haleb)

18

"I'll be back later Nana." I say as I walk out of her house. I decided to stay one more day and get to say goodbye to this place.. To nana... To my family.

I walk around nana's neighborhood. It brings back so many memories.

My mom would always bring me over here so I could spend time with my nana, so I have a lot of memories here.

I keep walking and looking around remembering the time I showed my nana that I could ride a bike, or the time that I found a bird with a damaged wing and helped it out.

All those memorable times are going to be gone soon. As I walk back to Nana's house, I start feeling like I want to cry. I want to just sit and cry my eyes out, but I can't.

I walk inside Nana's house one last time before grabbing my bags and hugging her. "I love you so much Nana. I'm going to miss you a lot." I say and I start to cry. "It's okay Hanna. We will see each other soon." She says with a smile. I keep crying and I sit in the car.

She thinks I mean I'm going to miss her by living over there, but I'm going to miss her by being dead.

I compose myself, and turn on my car. I wipe my tears and drive. I drive. And drive. And drive.

I finally make it to the bridge only to see someone there. 'Damnit!' I think.

I park the car and get out. I see Caleb and Emily.

"You guys leave. Now." I say to them. "No Hanna. I'm not going to lose you again. I already lost you once. I am not going to let you leave me." "Caleb. Forget about me. I'm not worthy of you or anyone else. You guys just need to leave and forget about me, please." I say.

"I can't do that Hanna." He says. "Why not?"

"Hanna, before I met you, my life was boring and dull. I barely had friends and I moved around a lot. I also stopped hanging out with my old friends when my brother had left us. Then all of a sudden you come into my life and make everything a whole lot clearer. You bring out the best in me, even if others don't think that, fuck them. This is about us not them. You came into my life and I'm finally able to stand up to my dad about stupid shit he does. My brother finally came home after all these years after I met you. You may think you're worth nothing, but to me, you're worth everything and more. You're irreplaceable and I love you so much Hanna." He says.

"Caleb..." I say. "Come home Hanna. We love you. We don't want to lose you. If I lose you right now I don't know what I'm going to do with myself."

"Hanna, you're my best friend, I just got you back. I don't want to lose you again, permanently. Please come back." Emily says.

That's when it hits me. They are standing at a cliff. They are still here. They didn't leave. They care. They actually care for me.

I start to cry again and they walk over to me. First Emily hugs me and then Caleb hugs me and holds me.

"I never want to lose you babe. I love you so fucking much. Please, whenever you want someone to talk to... talk to me or Emily. I just can't lose the best thing thats ever happened to me."

"At least Promise me that you will try to." He says and I nod and keep hugging him while the tears keep coming.

"Thanks for helping Emily, I'm gonna take her home now." He says to Em.

"Okay, and I would do anything for Han. She's my best friend. I would hate myself if I didn't come." She says and then she walks off into her car.

Caleb leads me to the passenger seat in my car and gets in the driver seat and her drives me home.

We get to my house and go to the living room where we snuggle together and watch some movies and where I eventually fall asleep on him.

From that moment on, I knew that him staying by my side through everything was already a reward, so I knew I had to give him something back. I would try to change for him, to be a better me. I would do it all for him.

A/N
Okay so this is it. I think this is the last chapter, unless you all want an Epilogue, which I would gladly write. I'm sorry it took like a fucking year for me to update, but I just couldn't figure out how to write the story. Anyways let me know if this is sufficient enough or if you want an Epilogue. Thanks loves! Byeee
