Shadow lives.

Chapter.16

"Richie"? I was worried. He wasn't with me. I was just wonder around some building.
"Alone again dear"? Oh no Barred. He was a shadow still.
"Where's Richie"?!
"Baby I don't know". He shrugged.
"I'm not your baby"!
"Oh you have no idea".
"What"?!
"Leave her alone"! It was Richie. Ok seriously where does this dude keep going to?
"Make me"! They started fighting again. I'm getting sick of this. But then Barred pulled out a knife. I ran over to Richie and he put me behind him.
"Put it down Barred please"! I asked him, he just smirked.
"Why be scared darling, your not the one who's going to get hurt"?
"You bet she's not"! Richie screamed.
"You will"!
"Ugh"! Richie was bleeding and Barred was gone.
"Richie"!! He was on the floor holding his stomach.
"I'll always be here, stay safe ok"? He smiled.
"Don't talk like that"!
"Goodbye princess". He kissed my forehead and was dead.
3 years later...
"I'll never forget you Richie, I know you'll never forget me". I put a flower on his grave.
"I'm back darling"! Barred!
"No"!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"are you ok"? I woke up, it was just a dream thank god.
"Nope". I smiled and hugged him. He was obviously really confused. I looked around my room and realized that it was 6 in the morning.
"What happened, did you have a bad dream too"?
"Yeah, but who cares! Let's just have some breakfast". I got up and motioned for him to come he got up and we started to walk to the kitchen.
"Are you sure your ok"? He smiled at me. I kissed him on the cheek.
"No I'm not, but I'm happy".
"Ok". We went into the kitchen and my parents were already at work. I got pancake mix from the cabinet and got all the stuff I needed to make pancakes.
"How many do you want love"? He smiled but I think he thought something was wrong.
"2 and love"?
"Stop being so paranoid". I teased him. I honestly don't know why I'm so happy but I like it.
"Why are you so happy"? He just sat at the table/counter looking confused but cute at the same time.
"Because I'm with you, do you not want me to be happy"?
"No, it's just its 6 in the morning and you had a bad dream, now your acting like you just got engaged or something". He smirked.
"I don't know why I'm so happy, but I thought you liked it when I'm happy"?
"I love it when your happy because then I'm happy, so I'll stop being annoying".
"Thank you". I finished making our pancakes then put them on plates and sat right next to him. He a,ready had the syrup.
"Thank you love". He said then are his food.
"Love"? He smiled.
"Ok"! He kissed me, I kissed him back. I pulled away.
"You too cute".
"Aww I'm blushing". We both started to giggle. Richie and I finished our food then we changed into our real clothes, no not in front of each other... jeez you have a dirty mind jk.😂 anyway after we changed.
"Hey princess"! Richie was in my door way.
"Ciao"! I waved then put my pajamas in the dresser.
"My mom texted me that I have to stay here for a few days because a work thing with her if it's ok with you"?
"Ok, I'll ask my mom". I'm glad that he's going to stay for a while, but I wonder what's going on with his parents. I texted my mom and she said of course.
"Yay your staying"!
"My mom said she'll drop off some clothes later". He rolled his eyes and smiled.
"Ok well what do you want to do"? I asked him while he was texting his mom.
"Uhh hmm how about we"...
"Meditate"! He came over to me and got criss cross applesauce. Then I did.
"Ok just relax". We just breathed in and out for a little while.
