He's gone, my dad is gone. I haven't left my room since, my room has a depressing vibe it sucks. I just sat in the corner of my room crying, I'm empty without him. I'm slowly losing everyone. I wish this never happened, I haven't talked to him for 3 months.

"Kayla?" I heard Shawn ask cutting all my thoughts. The door slowly opened and his eyes instantly soften when he saw me.

"What's wrong..." Shawn asked. "It's nothing..." I said not wanting to tell him.

"Just know I'm always here, through everything." He smiled hugging me, I nodded. "Well I gotta go, I'll see you another time" He smiled before leaving. Nice going Shawn.

I want Hayes right now, I realised he hasn't been updated with much. I stood up and walked into Hayes' room. He was lying on his bed half asleep. Once he realised I was here he motioned me to come closer to him.

"Come here" He said. I closed the door behind me and laid beside Hayes on his soft bed. He wrapped his arms around my waist and rested his chin on my head.

Kayla isn't into me yet. I groaned trying to think of a way to make her madly in love with me. I don't want to kill anyone but I'll do it just to get Kayla. But she's stupidly in love with Cameron. I only want Cameron to be out of the world, I want him dead.

Julie wants Cameron though, she thinks we're a team. How stupid. I'm only doing this to get to Cameron and to get with Kayla, I don't care about anyone else honestly.

I felt my phone vibrate intensely. "Hello." I said half asleep still in Hayes' bed. "Kayla!" I heard Sam chirp.

"Oh, hello." I said back still sounding dead. "Why sound so.. Dead?" Sam laughed through the line.

"Just woke up you idiot." I mumbled. "Oh right, anyways Mum booked your tickets back home to go to Dad's funeral." He said. I felt my eyes water again.

"Am I going alone?" I asked. "Well I was hoping you could bring someone." He said. "Okay." I said. "Tomorrow night okay?" He asked confirming. "Yeah okay."

"Cameron is coming isn't he? I already got his seat organised." Sam said. My heart sank. "Actually Sam... Cameron and I aren't..." I mumbled. "Oh..."

"Um Sam. How's mum and you holding up?" I asked. "Mum is a wreck. Emily and I have decided to stay over mum's place for a while. We all need each other and I think it's for the best as of right now. I'm fucking destroyed Kayla. Emily is by my side and she's helping me so much. I hope you're doing okay."

"I'm shattered. I want to go home." I cried. "I know Kayla. Just hang in there, the flight is tomorrow." I nodded even though he couldn't see me.

"I'll see you then." I said before ending the call.

"Hayes, you're coming with me to my Dad's funeral." I said placing my phone down. "Oh... right yes." He replied. "Tomorrow night." He nodded.

I made a choice, to bring Hayes instead of anyone else. I groggily walk to my room. "I'm going to go pack." I said to Hayes before leaving.

I grabbed my luggage and start packing. "He's not gone, he's not gone." I keep repeating to myself, it has to be fake. He's still alive, he is still with me. He's still with us, I know it. I grabbed my phone and open my texts.

[ kayla ] : Dad, how are you?

I stared at my phone waiting for a response, he will answer. He will...

[ dad ] : Good! How are you?

I felt my eyes widen. He answered! My heart fluttered in happiness.

[ kayla ] : Great! I missed you, you don't know how heartbroken I was to hear that you were dead. I knew you were still alive!

[ Dad ] : I am still here with you :)

I smiled widely. "Why are you smiling?" Hayes laughed walking in. "My Dad is still alive!" I beamed.

"What?" He asked confused. "Look, he texted me!" I said showing him the phone. Hayes looked closely to the phone.

"Where..?" He askrd scrunching his eyebrows together.

"There." I said pointing to his texts. "Kayla.." He said coming closer to me. "What? What's wrong?" I asked.

"Are you sure you're alright?" He asked. "Yeah of course, now that I know Dad is still alive." I smiled over to my phone.

"Kayla.. I don't see anything..." He said looking at my screen. I looked at him confused. "I-I'm sorry." He said pulling me in a hug.

"No.. he's there! He's alive!" I screamed. "Kayla, Kayla!" Hayes screamed trying to calm me down. "He texted me! He's alive. How could you say that?! How could you say that he's dead? Hayes get the fuck out of my room. My Dad is still alive!" I screamed pushing him off me. "Ka-"

"I said go!" I yelled. He still refused to go. "No." He said. "Kayla, please calm down. It's going to be alright." He said pulling me onto his lap.

"Stay awa-" I got cut off by my loud sobs. "He's gone isn't he.." I mumbled crying. "I'm so sorry Kayla.." He said pulling my head closer to his chin.

"W-why.." I cried louder. "Shhh, it's going to be okay."
