Chapter 1:

I feel so alone. I have almost no one left to love or be loved by. I only love one person now.. the other person is buried deep benieth my feet. I stared down, tears pricking at the corners of my eyes. Be strong, Priscilla, be strong.  I thought to myself. 

I will never be the same with out her, but I don't want to cry in front of him. "Mom." The one word came out like a whimper. I placed my hand over my mouth so I wouldn't scream. My heart felt like it had been ripped out of my chest and shred to pieces. I wanted to run until I died. It was my fault she was here. I did this to her. It was my fault she was murdered. I hated myself at that moment. I would hate myself until the day I died. 

"Priscilla, it wasn't your fault. There is nothing you could have done to stop it, Cil" *pronouced sill NOT kill..* Cole always had a way of reading my mind. it was one of the reasons I was in love with him. He is the only one I have left. He is the only person I love. I know he doesn't feel the same way about me and it kills me inside. I nodded my head slightly. "Cil, come here." I walked straight into his arms and burried my face into his chest. " I'm here for you, Cil. I always will be. Hey, look at me." he cupped my chin, making it impossible to not look at him.  

"It's not your fault okay? it was an accident. She was trying to protect you. It wasn't your fault." that was the thing. It was my fault. The man was after me. Not her. I sighed. If only you knew, Cole.

He stared down at me, for I was only 5' 3" and he was 6' 2", and sighed.

"Cil, it really wasn't your fault. Quit blaming yourself! You need to get your mind off this." What? I need to get my mind off this? How in the hell is that going to happen? This was all I thought about. "Wh-what do y-you mean?" God damn. I didn't realize how freakin' cold it got outside. My lip quivered and he tucked me underneath his jacket. God, he's so warm!

"Let me take you out. We can get dinner then go see a movie or something." I looked up at him, shocked. He saw the shocked look on my face and smirked.

"What? I care about you too ya know. Plus, it'll be fun!" hmmm... Dinner... Dark room.. with Cole. I'm sold. But... On the other hand..... My mom just died a month ago.... Maybe it should wait. Damn it. I was thinking about my mother again and started to tear up. I looked down at the rich soil benieth my feet. What would she say? My mom always loved, loved, loved Cole and I think she knew how I felt too...

I looked up at him and nodded my head once, a single tear rolling down my cheek. He put his hand on my face and wiped it away. Maybe I could stay with him tonight... As if reading my mind he said,

"Hey, Cil, why don't you stay with me tonight? I don't think it's safe for you to go home by yourself quite yet..." He frowned and looked somewhere off in the distance. I had been staying at my grandma's house but she told me she wanted me to go home tonight. How supportive. I hadn't planned on going home though. I was going to go to a hotel or something. No one knew but I only planned on going to that house once more. I would go back to pack my stuff (and some of my mother's) then I would get the Hell out of there and never ever return.

"Okay... are you sure? I can just go to a hotel or something. I don't want to be a bother..."

"Don't be ridiculous! I'd do anything for you!! You do know that right?" I hesitantly nodded my head.

"Can we go now? I don't want to be here anymore..."

"Of course. Let's go." with that, we walked away from my mother's beautiful grave.

It was so cold! We just barely started walking so we still had a looong way until we got to the car. It startled me a little when Cole reached out, grabbed my hand, and pulled me closer to him. I looked up and smiled at him. God. he was so warm.

We finally got to his car and I all but jumped inside. I could not wait for the heater!! It was only mid October but it was already freezing.

It was a long time before either one of us talked. Cole finally broke the awkward silence.

"Cil? Are you hungry? I was thinkin' we could get something to eat..?" Oh my God. Yes. I was starving. I hadn't eaten all day.

"Yeah... You?" He smirked.

"Yeah." I almost grinned. I knew it. He was always hungry!!

"Cil, You know I really do care about you. I just want you to be happy. You're my best friend." I almost grinned. I wondered if he could tell I was blushing.. Was this a date? No.... It couldn't be. We'd gone to dinner with each other so many times before.... This just seemed.... Different. I don't know how, it just did.

"Yeah. I would do anything and everything for you too Cole." I looked at him and caught a flash of a grin before he hid it.

"Cole?" God. What the hell am I doing???

"Yes?"

"Thank you." He looked puzzled.

"For?"

"Everything. You're always there for me. Thank you. You're amazing, Cole."

He grinned. This time he didn't hide it.
