I looked up from laying on my bed, singing lightly to myself as I heard the rustle from people in the base.
Trying hard to reach out, but when I tried to speak out...
Felt like no one could hear me.
Wanted to belong here, but something felt so wrong here.
So I pray I could breakaway.
It was when I heard someone clear their voice that I stopped and jolted up. I quickly glanced to my door, seeing Lisa standing there.
"Oh...hi." I acknowledged.
"I wanted to make sure you were alright. You ran off so quick." She started. I stayed quiet. "Do you sing often?"
"Why are you trying to get so close to us?" I asked her, sitting up on my bed, looking at her.
She stayed quiet. "Why are you trying so hard to not make friends with anyone?" She asked.
"Because... " I shook my head. "...You'd never understand."
"What do you mean? How can I never understand if you don't tell me what to understand?" She asked.
I sighed and looked up. "That little girl? Bella? She's the only family I have left. Luna, Echo, Jinxx, Caleb? They're my only friends I have left. And Luna's the only one I trust, because the other one I did - the one I trusted with my life died. I can't make new friends. Because you're so sweet, and you're so helpful to our group, and I know that if something happens, or if you or Mark die or something, then I'm not going to get over it and I don't want to. It's so difficult. It took me so long to gain the connection I have with Luna and Echo, so it's just best for you to ignore me." I couldn't tell the emotion on her face. "I'm so sorry." She took a step forward, and when I didn't stop her, she walked a little closer and put her hand on my shoulder.
"Lynne," she started, "I know I've only been here for like, a day, but...I want you to know that it's okay."
"It's not okay, Lisa." I said back.
"It is okay, Lynne, because you shouldn't be afraid to become friends with someone cause you don't want to lose them. As long as I'm here, I promise you won't be hurt. I won't let you. But you need to let me try."
"Friends always die around me," I answered sharply.
"I'm still standing, am I not?" She replied. "Are we not friends then? And Bella's alive, right? And Luna? Echo?"
"Well--."
"Soooo, you're lying," she joked, making me smile.
"Okay..." I said, shaking my head.
"So now you have no excuse to not be my friend. Everyone else is."
"I think friends is jumping way too far way too fast." I joked, making her smile back as she nodded her head.
"Well too bad. You're not good with judgement anyway," she said, as I leaned back on the bed and laughed.
Genuinely laughed for the first time in a long time.
