Save me

Chapter 13 - Sorry

~Daisy's P.O.V~

After a while, when my beanie was covered in snow, I was forced to walk back home. It took a while, and I couldn't feel my legs of hands afterwards. It was so cold. I walked down the forest path, coated in a white cold blanket. I looked into the forest to see that little grey girl, my friend. She shook her head at me and then came and walked next to me. We didn't say anything. I looked down at the ground where she had walked, and there were no footprints left in the snow, only a few drops of black blood. I shrugged and turned back around, spotting my gate amongst the faint snow and greenery.
"Goodbye Static." I began walking towards my gate, but I felt somebody tug on my wrist. "I said, goodbye Static!" She turned me around and wrapped her arms around me. I gasped in shock and struggled a bit against her freezing grip. She buried her face into my neck and sobbed silently. She was crying. I hugged her back with no hesitation.
"W-What's wrong?" I asked, the sight of my friend sad bringing tears to my eyes.
"I-I ͢mi̕ss ͢hi̡m̢, Da̕is̶y͏, ҉I̢ ̶m̕i͞ss̢ hi̴m̸ s͢0 ̨muc͝h.̴ " The muffled voice came from my bag. Miss him? Him? whose... him.... him.... Lewis.

She's talking about Lewis.

"Are you talking about..." A lump had raised in my throat and I tried my best to turn off the tap in my eyes. "L-Lewis?" The name was barely audible. As soon as I said that, Static just disappeared in her normal glitchy fashion. I looked around to see why she would disappear, but there was nothing. Did I upset her? Please tell me I didn't upset her...

Second day of the weekend. And how was I spending it? In my room, lying on my bed, going over the options for apologizing to Ben. I never ever wanted to hurt his feelings. I felt so bad. It would drive me mad if I didn't apologize. I sat at my desk and logged onto the chatroom app me and the group use, now with our other friends. I logged onto the one between me and Ben and started typing.
'Listen, Ben, I'm so sorry. Please, I take back what I said. 'Us' could happen at some point. I'm sorry, please forgive me? :('
I sat back and admired my amazing apology sentence. It was shit. But I wasn't typing it again. I clicked send and waited for a response. Soon enough, I got one.
'Sorry... you probably know by now, but I've had a crush on you since the day we met, thank you for always being there for me.'
It brought me to tears. Were they tears of joy? Or sadness? I don't know.
'That's so sweet :3 Well, your welcome, and thank you for always being there for me.'
I smiled and sat down on my bed, catching Static in the corner of my room, 'smiling' at me. I took the raidio off my desk and placed it next to me, so I could talk to her.
"So̸,̵ ̕i̴s ͘he ́y͏o̵u͡r ̸b͞oy͜f͟r͟ie҉nd҉ ye̶t͏?͟ " She asked, and I held back my laughs.
"No, no." I shook my head and we both burst out into laughter, hers staticy and glitchy, but I didn't care. It was the sweetest laugh I've heard since... "Static... I have a question..." I murmured.
"I͢ ̸k͞now.͘ ̵Bu͠t͠ you w͠įll̨ ̀f͝inḑ ͘the ánswer̡ ́soon̵.̨" Static looked down, shuffling her feet awkwardly.
"Oh, alright." I nodded and smiled. Static glanced at me then glitched away with the loudest static noise I've ever heard. I covered my ears and screamed. I was terrified of not only storms, but general loud noises. It faded, but it still stayed there. Amongst the static I heard my phone go off; I turned to it to see, of course, a text from Ben.
'Omfg I just heard the loudest static noise I've ever heard.' It made my pulse triple. He heard it too? Can he still hear it?
'WHAT?! Same! Can you still hear it?' I texted him back, pushing my face into my pillow to block out the noise.
'Yeah!! It's really annoying!' I saw his text and smiled despite the fact that my ears were ringing and clouded by static.
'Ooooh spoopy scawy' I needed humor, this was generally terrifying.
'XD oh you five year old.' I laughed. The static slowly but surely faded away and I was left in silence, with only a slight ringing in my ears.
