He tossed the coin in the air and caught it, and flipped it on his arm. "Tails, you first," he said.

"Once when I was thirteen, I faked being sick so I didn't have to go to school and my mom let me because she knew that I'd wanted to stay home to spend time with her," I said.

"You miss her, don't you?" He more said, but still.

"Flip the coin," I said.

He flipped it again and looked at it. "Okay, my turn. I had my first kiss at nine. It was on a date and there's no hard feelings or anything."

I chuckled and shook my head. He flipped the coin again and looked at it. "My turn again. Okay, um... I thought Daisy was my mom for the longest time."

"You miss your mom?" I asked.

"Hard to miss someone you never met," he shrugged.

"True," I said.

He flipped the coin again and it was my turn.

I breathed nervously. "My mom got killed, because the guy she went after, his son, had hurt me. And she found out and got mad. The guy was much stronger and," I shrugged. "I blame myself for it every day."

"You may not believe me, but it wasn't your fault. She was a mother. Don't tell me if you had a daughter and she got hurt, that you wouldn't go off and try and kill the person that hurt her," he said.

"Yeah, but—"

"No buts," he said. "You don't need to blame yourself anymore. Who was it?"

"This guy," I waved my hand. "I thought he liked me, and he did, but he liked what was on the outside way too much."

"So he—"

"Yeah," I breathed. "And my mom saw how beat up I was and kinda just knew."

"How old was he?" He asked.

"I was fifteen and he was nineteen," I said.

"I'm so sorry, Joanne," he hugged me.

I hugged him back and forgot we were supposed to be using the coin. But it was a little easier talking to Travis about these things. I held some tears in so not all of them would fall. I knew some things about him and he knew some stuff about me. He let go and grabbed his computer.

"How about we watch Netflix and actually just chill?" He offered.

I nodded and we turned on Baby Daddy. A funny show to escape the craziness of the world. And of my mind. I had my head on Travis's shoulder about four hours later and he'd covered us with the blanket on the bed.

Before we knew it, it was dark outside and he looked at me. "Wanna go for a run?"

I nodded and we went out into the woods. I shifted and we hunted and ran. Apart of me wanted to run away forever, but I'd look at Travis and decide against it. After about an hour we went back and I shifted back. We laid in his bed again and he pulled me close to him.

"Get some sleep," he petted my hair. "Oh, and for the record, I still like you."

I just chuckled nervously as I closed my eyes.

Aren't they just so cute?! Haha, leave your thoughts and predictions! Will Liam come back? Will the guy who is now 21 come back? Will someone from Travis's past come back? His mom maybe? We'll have to see! Haha
