The song on the right is what the friends are dancing to! The second dance, of course. By the way, I have a sqeuel coming up but I don't know if I should post it. I'll post up a preview when I'm done with this story. :) Thanks for reading again! Also, I'm dedicating to this girl because she has voting and commenting and I thank her for that!

Drinking coffee smooths me. Hanging out with my friends and drinking coffee relaxed me to the max. We chatted about random things to pass time. I didn't want to go home yet because I knew that I had to remembered that Jake went broke into my house and destroyed half our memories. It killed my mom because there was still dried blood in the floor and she shouldn't scrub it away.

Keith sat next to me and Sterek and Andy next to each other on the other side of the booth. Sterek didn't like Keith and Keith didn't like Sterek. Someday I hoped they got along because if they wanted to be my friend, they will have to get along. Andy saw the anger in their eyes but didn't say anything.

"They'll get over. Don't worry, Gabe," she said.

I hope they do.

Sterek took a sip of his coffee and gave me a smile. "So, how did you do it?"

I raised an eyebrow. What was he talking about? "Do what?"

He rolled his eyes and nudged Andy's shoulder. "Y'know, coming back to life?"

I pretended not to know what he was talking about. He caught me off guard because he knew something that I didn't know.

"I don't know what you're talking about," I said and shrugged my shoulders.

Andy and Keith stopped talking and stared at us. Sterek didn't believed a word I said. Shay shook his head and frowned. I gave him a shut up look and he knocked on the window, pointing at Sterek. Sterek and I didn't finish talking about my "death". But I wanted to know one thing. "Who saved me?"

Sterek bit his bottom lip and shrugged. "I don't know."

I glared at him. He was lying and I didn't like liars. Why would he lie at the most important thing in my life? I had to know who saved me because they just saved a life. My life. I turned my attention to the TV that was behind Andy's head and saw a video of Jake in court.

"Hey, hey, can you turn that up?" I said. Andy turned the TV up. It was a good thing we had our own TV and remote because no one would do that for us. They were a bunch of assholes.

"Jake Luther, twin of Logan Luther, has been guilty of assaulting with a weapon and three counts of attempt murder. Jake Luther has bipolar disorder, Schizophrenia, and Intermittent explosive disorder. Judge James do believe that Jake Luther knew what he was doing but do not want to tell the truth about what really happened. Lucy and Brian Blake has given details about the horrific events and brought evidence to the court..."

They showed a picture of my parents but not me. I thanked them that they didn't include me in. Then the woman started talking about the weather and that we'll have a storm in a few weeks.

Andy turned the TV down and she smiled widely at me. "You did it, Gabe! Jake is going to jail!"

We cheered and high five each other. Keith grabbed my chin and kissed my cheek. I blushed and leaned my face on the gap of his neck. He chuckled and rubbed his cheek on mine. I felt my heart slowing down and his beating faster.

"What are we going to do now?" Keith asked. He grabbed my waist and pulled me close to him, my butt almost on his lap. Sterek glared at Keith.

"We're going to hang out in Andy's room. Please don't come with us," Sterek said sternly.

"Fine, Gabe will cum with me," Keith said smoothly. Sterek shot up out of his seat and walked out of the shop.

I pulled away from Keith's hug and shook my head. "That's not cool, dude."

Keith shrugged. "I don't like him."

"But you have to like him if you want to be friends with me. We're all friends here."

Keith rolled his eyes and sighed deeply. We got out from our booth and walked out of the shop. Sterek was in his pickup truck blasting music and gripping the steering wheel tightly; his knuckles turning white. This was going to be a long day.

We jumped on Andy's bed and sighed  We didn't know what to do because Andy and Sterek weren't comfortable with Keith still so they didn't show their true selves. Sterek did by being angry all the time and Andy kind of ignored him or had small talk with him. I stood up from the bed and played a song that will get them jumping. I played Clarity by Zedd and they laughed when they saw me dancing. They joined in and Andy grabbed my hands, spinning me in a circle. I then grabbed Keith's and Sterek's hand and we spin around, roaring with laughter and happiness.

When the song finished, a new song came on and it was a soft, calm song that calmed out hearts down. Keith grabbed my waist and I placed my hands on his shoulders. We smiled at each other and we slowly started moving to the beat. I saw Sterek and Andy dancing and I was relieved. Sterek was finally calm around Keith but I felt like he was angry at him.

Keith grabbed my chin and placed a small kiss on my forehead. My smile widen and I looked up a little, seeing his brown eyes glow under the dull light in Andy's room. Maybe we can all get along and have the good life. Kieth pulled my waist closer and I placed my head on his shoulder.

"It's good to be friends again, Gabe," Keith whispered.

I chuckled and pulled back, punching his shoulder softly. "It's good you're not a jerk anymore."

Keith smiled widen. "Same old, Gabe. The one I fell for."
