Rose's view
"How have you two stayed so happy this all time? How have any of you?"
That was the next question out of his mouth, I suppressed a sad smile, how, I just shook my head and let Onii answer instead, I couldn't think of a lie and I couldn't tell him the truth.
The truth was, of course, that I hadn't stayed happy the whole time, not at all, I had had my fair share of depression but I had suppressed mine a lot better than he had with his. Everyone had been hit and so everyone dealt with it. There had once been a day where everyone had been hidden away, that was when we all picked up on the fact that we had to look after each other.
Out of the ones beside Straub, Eric had been hit the worst, he had felt so guilty about leaving me behind when the group split, it took a lot of persuasion to make him see differently, it probably hasn't completely convinced him but he's not showing it, so it had to have been getting better... Right?Straub's view
Rose hadn't said much since I asked, Onii had answered properly... Ish, but Rose had just shaken her head, had they not been happy the whole time?Bee's view
As the plane landed, the dread I had felt as the plane had been taking off returned, my stomach wouldn't stop twisting, bending into shapes I didn't even know were possible.
I lifted my head out of my hands, where it had been buried for the whole flight.
I don't want to do this anymore, he can't have forgiven me, I haven't forgiven me!
But then... I had never said sorry, not really, I had just ran.
I sighed and got up out of my seat, grabbed my carry-on bag and walked numbly out of the plane.
Can I do this?Ben's View
"Guys, what if she never shows up?"
"She will, she said"
"Haven't you ever backed out of doing something you said you would?"
"Just believe in her!"
I shook my head and stepped away from Eric and Bella. If only they would stop fighting!
Eric still had a grudge against her, he had for a while, I was sure of it! I just didn't know why.
Maybe it's because of how close he's gotten with Mitchell.
I shook my head again and glanced out the window.
"The moment of truth" I murmured as I watched a single plane pull in. The others froze mid-argument and stared, watching the gate intensely, all breath frozen.
I was tense, but grateful for the silence.
"She's not coming"
Ugh
"Yes, she is"
"N-"
Whatever Eric had planned to say next vanished as a familiar face stepped off of the plane.
