Your POV

As Garroth and I walked home from school, I nuzzled my head on his shoulder. "Garroth?" I ask. "Yeah?" He replied. "I don't know." I answered. I could almost see his grin. "I heard that there is a new student coming tomorrow." I said matter-of-factly. "Oh yeah?" He replied. I wonder if he ever gets tired of me rambling on about things. "Yeah. I think it's a girl. You won't cheat on me, will you?" I ask. I am very certain of the answer however. It's not like he's gonna be like 'oh, of course I'd cheat on you. Don't you know I happen to be in a long distance relationship with four other girls?'. No, he wouldn't. "Of course not." He answered simply. "Even if she's hotter than me?" I ask with a girly tone in my voice. I lifted my head off his shoulder just in time for me to see him roll his eyes. "Dude. Don't even say that. Your like- the sun, but actually one of those hotter stars that are just too far away from Earth to see." He said with a funny voice. I giggled, I couldn't help it. Gah, I hate giggling. Maybe I wouldn't hate it so much if it wasn't called 'giggling'. Just that name is frustratingly infuriating.

"Hey, (f/n)?" Garroth finally said. "Yeah?" I replied. "Would you like to go on a ppppproper date with me?" He asked, rolling his 'p' like I had once done. I laughed. "No." I finally said. He looked horrified. "Just kidding, of course I would!" He sighed in relief. "At our secret?" I ask. "Sure."

Garroth knocked on my bedroom door.

"I'M STILL GETTING READY!" I shouted. We decided to go on our date tonight, because why not? It was hard to keep what I look like a secret, being in the same house and all. I threw a white tank-top that read: This girl is weird. I also put on a (f/c) beanie and a cross necklace. Then, I put on some (f/c) jordans. I guess I look decent.

I walked out. Garroth was wearing his signature hoodie. "As always, you look amazing." He said. "Oh shut up. Come on." I joked, grabbing his wrist and dragging him out. We reached the spot pretty quickly, and we sat on the edge by the water. 

Garroth laid down, and I put my head on his chest. I smiled, and he combed his fingers through my hair. "Can you believe I used to live thinking, 'how can we escape this endless cycle of birth and death?'" He said. I shifted my head so I could look at him. "I think I found the answer to that question." I replied. He smiled, that crooked, sincere smile that I fell for. "Yeah?" He whispered. I slowly, without looking away from his crystal eyes, moved upward and kissed him. He rubbed my back in circles, and I wondered if he knew about my dad. How could he?

I pulled apart from him, and sat up, my knees tucked to my stomach. "Yeah. I agree." He said quietly. He sat up with me. "You know.. I would be dead. I would have broken all my bones, flat on the paved street. They would find me, and put caution tape all around me. Maybe they would even use that white chalk. Then, the cops would s-" Garroth cut me off. "Don't describe your possible cause of death that almost happened. Because it didn't, okay?" He said rather sharply. "Okay." I said. The cold breeze send a chill down my spine, and I shivered. "You cold?" He asked. 

Yes. Yes I am freezing. I am chilled to the bone. I am dying of frost bite. I am in the Arctic, and I have fallen through the layer of ice into the freezing water with ice burgs floating around. I am drowning in the cold arctic ocean, surrounded by ice burgs. "A little." I answered. He half smiled, and slid off his sweatshirt. "Here" is what he said as he gingerly put it over me. The sleeves went past my hands, but I didn't care. I sniffed it. "It smells like you." I said. "Oh, I'm sorry. It must smell pretty bad, eh?" he asked jokingly. "It smells like lemon juice and freshly cut grass, just like you." I said. He cupped my cheek with one hand. "I love you, (f/n) (l/n)." I felt a heat rush into my cheeks. "And I you." I replied.

"Well isn't that sweet?" Said an unfamiliar voice from behind me. 

I turned, my eyes widened with horror.

SO SHORT I AM SO SOZ!
