Hello! As promised, I'm updating often for the next few days, I actually just finished Chapter 10!

Did he just say what I thought he did? James could see how shocked I was. He and Sara are like, siblings. They can't date, they just can't. But then again, James would do anything for Shiva.

"She really said that?" I asked, quite bluntly actually. Embarrassed, I looked away.

"Yeah she did..." He mumbled. "I'm glad I'm not the only one that thought it was strange." James stood up, stretching. "Hey, uh I know your mum's coming home tomorrow and probably wants some time with you guys, but my parents are outta town and I was wondering if I could sleep here maybe? Just for a couple nights..."

"James, once our mom finds out about Shiva, and Sara of course, she'll do anything. I'm sure she won't mind." I said. "I'll go tell Emma and Skip they can stay here tonight too, it's already 1AM."

"Thanks so much Luke, I mean it. Tell everyone to sleep well, I'm gonna go crash." He yawned, walking into my room, "Is it okay if I sleep here?" He asked, referencing to a thin blanket\ in my room.

I rolled my eyes, "James, just sleep in the bed. You're the guest, I'm on the floor."

Without complaining, he nodded as I closed the door and joined the rest downstairs.

"How's James doing?" asked Skip.

"He's doing okay, he's crashing in my room right now, you and Emma can stay here for the night too." They nodded.

Jai grabbed Emma, "You wanna sleep with me?" he asked, pleading a little.

"Yeah we can share your bed," she said with a smile. They awkwardly looked at our smirks. "Well it's not like we're gonna do anything dirty! I'm fucking mourning you assholes." She hissed, leading Jai up the stairs.

He turned around and winked as they went up to his room. We all grinned back.

Yawning, I looked over at Skip and Beau, "I'm heading upstairs, you guys chill with bunking together?" I asked, knowing they both were very attracted to Sara, and I didn't want anything to happen...

"Yeah, yeah it's fine." Said Beau. "You're alright, right Skip?"

He nodded.

"Alright, see ya in the morning."

I walked upstairs and opened my door slowly, James was passed out on my bed. I grabbed a thick blanket to sleep on, being careful not to wake him, and laid down. But I knew I wouldn't be able to sleep.

So I thought. About Beau, Skip, James, and Sara. Mourned for Shiva. And I thought. And I mourned. For a long time. Looking at my phone, I saw it was 4AM. Three hours of thinking and mourning. I finally drifted off...

*Beau's Point of View*

I couldn't sleep. Not with Shiva and Sara on my mind. My phone told me it was 4AM, and I hadn't slept at all. I decided to try one final time, or else I would just go find some coffee somewhere...maybe go to the hospital to check on Sar...

Suddenly, Skip started murmuring something in his sleep. I couldn't not listen to him. I began eavesdropping.

"Sara," He said, "Sara why are you so much like her?" He grumbled.

Like who? I wanted to ask the sleeping kid. Who would Sara remind him of?

"I miss you so much sweetie, you're always here with me. I'll never forget." he kept mumbling. Okay, did he really "miss" Sara? It's not like she's even dead...
