"I'm afraid of losing people"
Danny just stared at me. But I felt like he wasn't just staring at me, he was trying to look through me for an explanation.
"Are you ok, Skylar?"
I just pause and stare at him. He notices the hurt in my eyes.
"What happened?"
I grab his hand and I bring him into my room. My sanctuary. My secret place. I bring him over to my bed and I get on and lean up against my wall. He comes and sits next to me.
"Have you ever realized that neither my mom or my dad are here?"
"I thought they were just at work"
"They're dead" I say sharply and with sorrow.
Danny just looks down to his lap, "can you hand me one of those pillows?" I ask him pointing to one of the pillows sitting next to Danny. He hands me one and I squeeze it tight.
"I'm sorry, Sky"
"I'm used to it. It's just that since then I've been afraid of losing people, I have no one left"
"What about close friends or family?"
I sigh and take in a deep breath before I speak again.
"I'm an outcast, no body likes to talk to me, my family refuses to see me since I look too much like my parents"
Then a tear rolls down my cheek, Danny looks towards me and sees that I started crying and he opens his arms up for me. I lean into him and let him just calm me down.
"You're not an outcast."
"Tell that to everybody I know"
"How can you be? You're smart, beautiful, have great taste in music, and most importantly, you're a nice person"
"People think that I'm emo, since I listen to rock and alternative music. My school is a piece of crap"
"I can see if my mom could homeschool you like she does me?"
"Do you really think she would do that for me?"
"Definitely, I told her about you and she loves you."
"That's a first for me"
"Well you are really like able"
The calming down works for a while then he asks a dumb question.
"I know this might not be the best time, but how did they die?"
