Authors note: I'm gonna try to update at least 3-4 times a week, but school is starting up soon so I'm not sure if I can squeeze it into my schedule. Thank you guys  for the support, I appreciate it.❤️ Also the beginning of this chapter is in Alec's p.o.v.
Alec's P.O.V.
*******
I felt Callie's head become heavier, she was a sleep. I looked at her in her peacefulness.
"Goodnight Cal." I wanted to kiss her head, but I had to respect her. If she's not ready don't push it, then she'll push you away. The last thing she needs is to be alone. Kate hadn't stopped by, I'm sure she was texting Callie's old phone but that was useless. It was still at Zack's. His name burned my throat, Callie didn't deserve what happened to her. No one did. I started watching Lilo and Stitch again. Soon I felt myself starting to drift.

Callie's P.O.V.
********
I woke up to Alec cooking. What is he cooking with? I literally have no food in this house, let alone do I really own anything to cook with. Alec looked up from cooking, and at me. He smiled, and I blushed.
Wait.
Why am I blushing? What the hell Callie?
"Morning sunshine!" He laughed at my Scarlett cheeks.
"Fuck off." I flipped him off and rolled of the couch....literally. I landed on the floor with a loud;
THUD
Alec laughed so hard that he snorted, cause me to laugh so hard that I snorted.
"Callie, your so clumsy."
"Shut up, pig." I pulled my nose up, so it looked like a pigs nose. I walked towards him and looked into an old pan I had. My sisters gift to me before she left. Alec was making bacon.
"OH MY GOD, BACON FOR PIGS." I shouted and laughed even harder, so did Alec.
"Wait...does that make us cannibals then?!" Alec's eyes went wide and all serious.
"Yes, yes it does." We looked at each other dead in the eye and bursts out laughing. He flipped the bacon and came by me. I was grabbing us some juice boxes. Don't judge me, okay. I like them.
"Thank you, Alec. For everything you've done since...the party." I looked at him and offered a small smile. Alec smiled back, and I swear his eyes sparkled.
"No problem."
"I'm forever in debt to you." I curtsies, and laughed.
"You start paying off that debt by returning the kiss from a few days ago." He smirked. I like his smirk, it's so friendly and daring.
"Fine." He looked shocked, I stood on my tippy toes, and pecked him on the cheek.
"That was not a kiss." He playfully frowned.
"You weren't specific, so technically I kissed you." I flashed a devilish smile and handed him a juice box. I then walked to my room to change. I grabbed some spandex, a baggy sweat shirt, and some fuzzy socks. I changed and walked back out into the living room. I sat on the couch and turned on Netflix.
"What's your favorite show on Netflix?" I asked Alec, he chuckled.
"Promise you won't make fun of me?" I looked at him and raised a eyebrow but nodded my head.
"I promise."
"Supernatural." I held back a laugh, but I promised not to judge. But I couldn't judge because honestly it was mine too.
"Oh mah gawd! Same Bruh." I used an annoying teenage girl voice. He laughed, and walked towards me with a plate of bacon.  He sat besides me and I took some bacon.
"Thanks for breakfast."
"No problemo." I clicked on supernatural and we started watching. About half way through the episode, my phone started to ring. I checked the caller ID: unknown. I answered.
"Hello, this is Callie speaking."
"Callie, it's me." My heart sank. Alec tapped my shoulder and mouthed: "Is everything okay?" I nodded.
"Callie, say something. I'm begging you."
"How did you get this number? Huh, Sarah?" I was pissed but afraid.
"I'm your mother. You will call me you mother." She was crying, I could hear it in her voice.
"You lost the term 'mother' to me a long time ago. Now how did you get this number, Sarah?" She sobbed. Please woman, your tears won't soften me up.
"Kate. She told me to talk to you before she...because she committed suicide." My stomach dropped, and I closed my eyes shut. I felt the warm tears stream down my cheeks. Stop crying! God I'm so emotional.
"Callie, your best friend is dead. It's okay to cry." Shit, I said that out loud. Alex was worrying about me now.
"Goodbye, Sarah."
"No, Callie you will not hang up I am your moth-" I clicked end. And shit off my phone. I was still silently crying. I could've saved her, if I would have just went to her house instead of coming here. This was my fault. Kate died because of ME.
"Callie what's wrong? What happened?" Alec was panicking now.
"She's dead. Alec she's dead." I hugged him, and buried my head into his chest. He hugged me and cradled me.
"Who's dead Callie, who?"
"Kate." I felt him turn to stone. I could feel his tears dripping into my hair.
"Shit. I'm sorry Callie, I'm so sorry." He hugged me tighter.
"It's not your fault, it's mine."
