 I watch with trepidation as Hannah turns around. She looks at me leaning against the door jam. Her eyes look into mine before flicking up to my hair and then down my body.

Desperate to lighten the mood, I smirk and ask. “Checking me out”

“You know I can’t help myself.” She sarcastically replies, shaking her head at me as much as her statement. Chuckling at her I sit on the bed. She looks up at me puzzled and I say nothing I only pat the bed next to me and look at her expectantly

I feel the bed depress slightly as she sits next to me. I turn to her and say, “Listen, today after my little wreck-”

“Little, you could have gotten really hurt.” She interrupts, emphasizing  little  incredulously.

“Ok, ok it was pretty bad I’m not going to lie, I’m still sore, but…” I trail off, not knowing how to ask this so I just blurt it out before my nerves fail. “Why did you react that way?”

“Aar-” She starts out a frown on her face.

Before she can finish I cut in “Hannah I’m here for you and I want to be here for you,  just tell me how .” I ask her, the desperation and confusion coming out in my voice.

“Aaron… I don’t know, all I do know is that I thought I lost you; I thought I lost my best friend I…” She trails off, tears starting to form in her eyes as she looks away from me trying to hide the emotion.

“Look,” I tell her taking her chin in my hand and turning her to face me as I set my other hand on her cheek. I wipe away a tear threatening to spill onto her rosy cheeks with my thumb. “Look at me” I command her “I am fine. Ok, everything is going to be alright.” I insist. I take my hand away from her cheek and wrap my arm around her pulling her closer and she sticks her head into my chest dampening it with the tears that start to come. They seep into my shirt feeling like acid against my skin searing into me, every one of them cuts me to my very core. I feel helpless, at a loss, cut a drift in a sea of loneliness seeing my best friend cry next to me.

I try to soothe her as I gently move my hand in circles on her back. “Its ok, it’s ok,” I tell her, my voice shaky and far from confident but I don’t know who I was trying to convince anymore, her or me. 

Turning away from me abruptly she pleads, “Aaron go, thank you but go, I need to be left alone.” Her breath hitches when she utters the word alone.

Grabbing her shoulders and turning her to face me I look into her  hazel eyes the flecks of green standing out in the low light, and I tell her, “No, I am not going to leave you, not now not ever. I told you I was going to be here for you and I will, whether you want me to or not I am not giving up on you.” I lay down on the side of the bed and pull her shoulders down so that she next to me. Breathing in the strawberry scent from her hair and shuddering out a breath consequently. I wrap my arm around her waist, and I whisper in her ear, “I have you, everything will be alright.”  I squeeze her tighter. Silence envelops the room as we lay in the darkness. Shifting I lay my hand on hers slowly rubbing circles into her wrist with my thumb. She pushes back nestling deeper into my chest. She lets out a long slow breath as I feel her muscles relax next to me. Then, barely audible, I hear her whisper,

 “Goodnight Aaron.” I smile into her mass of curls and kiss the top of her head and whisper back 

“Goodnight Hannah.”
