One In A Million

Trying to recoop

Kirstie POV
I wake up to the smell of bacon and pancakes. I crawl out of bed and see Avi in the kitchen cooking breakfast. First,he gives up his bed for me and sleeps on the couch,and now he's making breakfast. I walk over to the stool and sit down and say
"Good morning" with a little smile.
He looks back at me as he puts more pancake batter into the pan and says
"Morning" with his warming little half smile.
"Thank you so much,again for you know,everything" I say looking down guilty.
"Of course. I wouldn't want you staying in a motel. How'd you sleep?" He asks me.
"Fine. I should be asking how you slept considering you slept on the couch" I said to him.
"Oh I slept just fine. You don't need to worry about me." He said bringing the plates to the table.we were continuing to move to the table to eat so I kept talking.
"Well,I just feel bad. I mean,your back isn't going to feel too good in about a week. Trust me."

Avi POV
I looked at her straight in the eye when I told her
"Look at me,I'm fine. My back will be fine. You don't need to worry about me. Just last week  you got injured physically and emotionally. And your still injured, and I want you to know that I'm here for you. I know that you could go to Scott or Mitch or Esther or whoever,but you can come to me Kirstin."
"Woah. That's like the first time you called me by my actual name. You must be serious." She says.
"I am. I want to be there for you kirst" I say and take her by her hand. Me and her are nothing serious and never have been anything serious. But she smiles and says
"ok. I promise I'll come to you if there's anything serious going on."
"Ok.thank you." I say back.
we're done eating by now,so we get up from the table and clean off the table.

Kirstie POV
we had just gotten done with breakfast and a very serious discussion. I told Avi that I needed to change into some cloths so that I'd be right back. I went to the bathroom and I put on some black tights with a PTX sweatshirt and some bobs,put my hair up in a messy bun and for my makeup I just put some powder and mascara on. After I was done getting dressed for the day I walked out of the bathroom and came to Avi, I was thinking about what he said to me,about him wanting for me to come to him about stuff. So I walked into the kitchen and there he is, washing dishes. I guess he already changed though,before he was in a Tshirt and sweats,but now he's in black skinny jeans,a button up flannel,converse,and a PTX beanie. I walk up beside the sink and he looks up at me and I say
"Avi,can I talk to you for a sec?"
"sure.of course." He answers.

Avi POV
I'm a little worried. She has that worried look on her face like something's wrong. We head over to the little table, and she starts to speak
"I need you to do me a favor."
"Of course. Anything." I answer.
"When I was with.....Jeremy something happened."
"What?" I felt as if I was going to punch something.
"Well....when me and him were together,I'd lost someone very dear to me. And my grieving mechanisms are slightly different than everyone else's." She says.
"How different?" I ask.
".......I tried to kill myself."
"Woah. I'm so sorry kirst. How come you didn't tell me, or anyone?"
"I was to embarrassed. The only person who knew was Jeremy."
"Not to sound disrespectful or anything,but what are you exactly asking me here?" I ask.
"I need you to hide the knives and pills and anything else that I could necessarily hurt myself with, please."
"Of course,I'm so glad that you felt safe enough to come to me." I say to her.
"Yea. I told you I'd come to you if it was anything serious and I meant it. Now,dinner? I can make something if you wanna see what I can make?" She says.
"Ummm yea. Can I drive you to the store? I could help you pick out something to make." I say
"Yea. Of course." She answers.
