From ‚hate you' to ,love you'

Chapter 29

Blair's POV:

It was almost midnight, still I was shocked of the news. Zach didn't stop crying at all. We laid down on his bed, cuddling.
,,Can you get me a water?'' Zach asked and I went downstairs to get him a bottle.
I saw Mrs.Dempsey sitting in the kitchen, looking as if she saw a ghost with tears all over her face.
,,Blair honey why are you still up?'' she asked me whipping away her tears.
,,Zach wanted a water that's why I came to get him one.'' I said and she nodded.
,,Mrs Dempsey I-I feel so sorry for y-your loss and what I said today, it wasn't right to say that I'm really— she cut me off:,,Blair it's okay, I mean you didn't know, everyone would react like that.''
I walked over to her and hugged her.
,,I'm here if you need anything.'' I said.
,,thank you I really appreciate it, also that you take so much care of Zach. He really is lucky with you.'' she said putting on a weak smile.
,,So am I'' I said smiling and walking back upstairs.
,,What took you so long?'' - Zach asked as I handed him the water.
,,I talked to your mom'' - I said and Zach only let out an ,,ah''.
I laid next to him and hugged him as strong as I could and that's how we fell asleep.

Zach's POV:

The next morning I woke up to an empty side next to me. Maybe she went home, I thought. I went downstairs and saw Blair standing in the kitchen making breakfast. My mom also stood there, but Blair told her to sit down. I stood in the doorway, just watching them talk. Blair hugged mom and she was about to cry again. I went to them and hugged both of them.
Mom went to sit down and I still stood next to Blair watching her making the last pancake.
,,Good morning'' I said and hugged her once again, but this time from behind. She turned around and hugged me:,,Good morning. Go sit down breakfast is ready.''
We sat down and ate in silence. After eating Blair cleaned the kitchen, she didn't want us to do stuff. Blair sat down next to me and asked me what I wanted to do today.
,,Let's have a walk on the beach.'' He said.

Zach's POV:

Blair and I were walking along the port. Just talking and going around. I couldn't stand it being a minute more at home, it's the pain that kills someone.
