3:00AM in Kenzie's Room

Kenzie looks up to the ceiling, releasing a big sigh.

"I thought that everything was going to be okay. I thought that maybe if I stopped dreaming about Babe everyday...maybe I wouldn't have these constant breakdowns and terrible mood swings."

The girl sits up, placing her face into the palms of her hands. Bit by bit, she's only become more empty, bitter, and cold. Bit by bit, she's only become more resentful of the world. Kenzie lays back down, placing her covers over her head. "If I wasn't so hopelessly in love with my own best friend, maybe none of this would ever happen."

The Next Day

"Hey Kenzie!" Babe says as she sees her friend walking into the building.

Surprisingly, Babe was earlier to get to the building than Kenzie. Then again, Babe has been earlier for the past few months. It wasn't because Babe decided to take initiative and wake up early to arrive first. It's because for the past few months, ever since Double G's death (Or so Babe thought), Kenzie's been arriving late, with a darker, gloomier face each time. The only times Babe ever saw Kenzie smile since this started, was those times when Babe would walk over to Kenzie and hug her from behind.

"Hey." Kenzie replies in mere whisper.

"How was your sleep last night?"

Silence.

Babe sighs after being ignored by Kenzie, turning away from her friend. It's been what, three months? Three months since Dub's death. Three months since Kenzie became the cold person she is today. It's been three months since she's isolated herself from the rest of the crew. Since she's isolated herself from—

"From me." Babe says out loud on accident. She looks over at Kenzie, worried that Kenzie might question Babe. But instead, Kenzie walks by, perfectly unaware of the situation. Babe begins to laugh, hurt in her voice. She whips her body in the direction of Kenzie.

"Kenzie! Why won't you god. DAMN. Talk to me!" Babe says, her voice quivering. "I'm so sick of you being all weird and quiet! What does our friendship even mean to you anymore? What do I mean to you anymore?!"

Kenzie turns around, tears streaming down the sides of cheek. "Too much, Babe. You mean too much to me."

For a second, Babe is caught off-guard. She didn't expect an answer like that from Kenzie. Babe's whole intention of starting this conversation was to help Kenize settle her emotions. But now, Babe realizes that she started this conversation only to help herself. "What do you mean? From the attitude that you've given me for the past three months have been absolute crap! All I want is to help you, Kenz! If I mean so much to you, then why won't you let me in for a change?"

"Because I'm trying to protect you!"

"Hold your horses, Kenzie, you don't get to be mad! I'm the one that deserves to be get mad because I'm the one that you decided to kick out of your goddamn life!"

"Ever since three months ago, things have changed in my life, okay? I don't want to make your life miserable by exposing you to everything that I have to go through. And to top it off..." Kenzie stops for a moment, now transitioning from her standing position to now seated beside Babe, looking anywhere but Babe's eyes. "My weird emotions and feelings, I don't know I'm just so confused about everything in general and—"

"Shut up."

Kenzie suddenly stopped, realizing that she's been rambling and annoying Babe the entire time. "I-I'm sorry, I didn't mean to—"

Kenzie's voice is suddenly muffled as eyes widen when Babe reaches for Kenzie's face, and without another word...

...brings the two of them together into a kiss.
