'When the days are cold'

I turn around and face Libby.

"What is it?" I smile.

She frowns. "Important." She mummbles.

I go and sit by her on the bed. "There's something up," I bump her shoulder. "Tell me." This reminds me of the last night before she left. There was something up with her, but she wouldn't tell me. The next day, I found out. Then, all of my days were cold.

She looks at me.

"You can't tell anybody, only Spencer knows the story. Soph only know half."

'And the cards all fold'

"I promise." We lock pinkys.

"Ok." She takes a deep breath and lets it out.

"I've lived in New York my whole life."

I sigh, knowing that she moved here when she was 12.

"What is why I have no idea how you know me." She chuckles and shakes her head.

'And the saints we see are all made of gold'

"My mom just ran when I was little, so my dad took me."

I know its really the other way around, he dad was an alcolholic. He was the one who ran. Then he took her.

"He homeschooled me until I was 14, then i went to highschool. Thats when I met Sophie and Spencer." She smiles, recalling the memory.

'When your dreams all fail and the ones we hail are the worst off all, and

The bloods run stale'

"I wasn't really popular, yhea people knew who I was, but I was known as the girl who was best friends with a gay guy and his twin sister."

"My mom always comes and visits. Once a month, unless its a holiday. She shrugs.

"I've always been closer with my dad than my mom. Back to highschool. I got really good grades, so I got a half schoolership to New York University, I didn't want to move too far."

'Then I wouldn't have found you' I think.

'I wanna hide the truth I wanna shelter you'

Maybe I don't want her to know about Bradford. She seems so sweet. Maybe she can't handle it.

"Dad lived in England, so I've always wanted to go there." She looks at me. "Is it nice?"

I nod and smile. "Very pretty, now back to you."

She looks forward. Not wanting to make eye contact with me.

"My dad doen't come home sometimes."

'But with the beast inside There's nowhere we can hide'

When I first met her dad, I knew there was something up. I later found out that her dad drank. Thats why her mom won custody. When he came back, he went through rehab. Thats why he was able to take her.

"I know what he does. Everyone thinks I'm just little, and cute. But I know what her does when he goes out."

She curls up into a ball.

'No matter what we breed we still are made of greed This is my kingdom come

This is my kingdom come'
