CONLEY'S P.O.V.
"Hey Conley would you want to come help us look for Blake?" Sami asks walking through my bedroom door waking me up. It's still dark outside.

"Uh, yeah sure. When are we leaving?"

"At sunrise so do whatever you need to do to get ready."

"How long are we gonna be gone?"

"As long as it takes to find him."

"Okay. But Sami... don't get your hopes up. I'm not trying to be mean or anything like that but I don't want you to be expecting him to be alive and well. He has been gone for months now without anyone and-"

"I know Conley. I just have to try, I have to know if he is dead or alive. Right now I don't know what to expect. But there's always hope." We gave each other a little smile and then she walked back out and closed the door leaving me to get ready. I look over at the clock.

"Okay I got about an hour until sunrise." I jump up off my bed and grab some clothes then head to the bathroom and look at myself in the mirror.

"Man my hair is getting long."

"I can fix that." Mia says, I look over at her to see her leaning against the door frame.

"Oh really? And how are you gonna do that?"

"You'll see. Now close your eyes."

"Okay..." I do as she says and she gets me a seat since I'm taller than her.

"You might want to take a shower after this."

"I was already planning on taking one."

"Okay good." She says with a little cute laugh causing me to smile.

"Okay here goes nothing." I hear her turn something in and then I realize all she is going to do is shave my head, hope I look okay after this.

"Aaannndddd, done!" She says excited.

"Can I open my eyes now?"

"No not yet. You might want to take a shower before you see it."

"Okay fine." I wait until I hear her leave then get undressed and take my shower.

Once I'm done I dry off and put my clothes on and start to brush my teeth not looking at myself yet.

"Oh. My. Gosh. I actually like this." I say looking at myself in the mirror.

She didn't shave it all off but she took a lot of it

She didn't shave it all off but she took a lot of it. Then I hear a knock on the door.

"Hey are you almost done." I don't even answer but I open the door to see Mia. Before she can say anything I wrap my arms around her and pull her into a bear hug lifting her up off of her feet.
