I recommend having "Staying Up" by the Neighbourhood on replay while reading this chapter
After that dream, I decided that I can't be living my days in depression because of this illness. I might die in the end so, I gotta live the time I'm here happy. The two weeks went by fast.. but I did have lots of fun. I went surfing with Tyler, Kory, Isabella, Keaton, and Olivia almost every other day. All our nights was filled with Polaroids and just chilling writing music. Keaton and I grew closer and closer and I just realized how much I deeply love him. But me telling Keaton 'I Love You' is such a big word.. I'm sure Keaton didn't feel the same.
It was June 20th and the guys just told the fans Drew has left. When they announced it they where all here at the house.... including Drew. Then right after it was uploaded Drew left. Which I found odd, but I was just worried how Keaton and Wes were taking it. Wesley was ok, but Keaton didn't seem ok.
"We are going to my Mom's house..." Keaton said standing at my door.
"Ok! are you going to be here for dinner, just to know so if I should make something to eat or go to eat with Tyler and Kory."
"You aren't going to come with me."
"Keats, right now things are happening and I think time with family would be great, just you, your sisters, butter, and Wes. I don't want to intrude."
"Just come please.."
"Keaton, I understand you want me to go, but I'm telling you family will always be there, it's just better. plus tonight I will hangout with you all night!"
"Ok... I'll be back after dinner."
He gave me a kiss on the forehead and left. I was serious about him trusting his family because I have been in something like this and family will never stop.
Tyler and Kory and I went out to eat at In N Out.
"We have to stop eating like this" Kory said
"Agreed" I said
"Tyler, Lilly tomorrow we start eating healthy!" Kory said straightening his posture being proud.
"Alright!" we all high five and left home.
Kory, Tyler, and I sat on the couch watching YouTube videos of people acting stupid. We were all just cracking up!! Wes and Keats walk in around 10:00pm and honestly I'm beat..... but I had to stay awake to make sure Keaton is ok.
"Hey Guys, Whatsss Uuupp!" Wes said plopping on the couch with us.
"Watching this hilarious dude Lilly watches. what's his name?"
"Lohanthony!" I said
"Ooooo!" Wes said.
Keaton sat beside me for a bit and then left to his room.
I wondered about him and then figured I would tell everyone I'm going to bed.
"Goodnight Everyone!" I said
"GoodNight!!" they all said back.
I walked over to Keaton's room and he wasn't in sight. I then noticed that my room door was closed.
"Keaton! Open Up!" I said through the door
After a min or two the door squeaked open. Keaton walked over to my bed and laid back down.
"You okay?" I asked
"Yea I just need sleep.... but I can't sleep." He said
I went and laid next to him. He didn't snuggle up to me. So I just laid there. I for some reason the last few days felt like he didn't even want me. he then grabbed my hand.
"Are you ever scared of the future... for what's out there?" He asked.
"I guess..." I said
"How do you sleep?" He asked
"How can I sleep? I don't sleep... how can I sleep if I don't have dreams... I only have nightmares.. but for some reason I still believe that something is out there. Yet no one seems to understand."
There was silence.
"I understand."
"You do?" I questioned .... because honestly know one ever did.
"Let's go."
"Where?" I asked
" Find our dreams... " Keaton said
I had no idea what he meant... but I trusted his ways.
We packed up blankets, clothes, ropes, and my battery lights... similar to the firefly ones.
We hopped into my jeep, once everyone was asleep. Then we were off.
We drove for an hour and a half until we came to our destination. The beach.
We found some trees and hung up the rope. We placed 3 blankets over the rope to create a fort. I hung the lights up inside the small fort and the places the air mattress under.
"It perfect." keaton said
"What time is it?" I asked
"1:36am"
"Topless into the ocean.. just you and me." I said
Without even a small glance we stripped off our shirts and ran into the ocean. I was warmer than usually, but I didn't even care about that. I dove as deep into the water as I could then came back up and was face to face with Keaton.
We were both still able to stand so he grabbed my waist and pulled me in closer. I placed my hand on his face...
"No matter what... I will be here for you.. together or not... I'll be there forever."
"Forever is a long time keaton." I said
"That's why I said it."
He then pressed his lips against mine. we stood against the waves, being together. he picked me up and carried me out of the water and walked me over to the sand. he then gently placed me down. causing my body to be full of sand. He then plopped next to me and began to kiss me harder. I was for sure not going to let it get farther than kissing. Keaton slid his hand from my cheek to my waist.
After a while we stopped. His forehead placed on mine we stared into each other's eyes and smile.
"This is my dream." keaton said
"If only it could last forever." I said
"Forever" he whispered.
We both got up and walked back hand and hand to our camp out for the night. I grabbed the towel I brought and quickly changed into my pjs I brought. Keaton doing the same.
We then both grabbed the blankets and cuddle up under the fort.
"Lilly.." Keaton said
"Yea" I said snuggling up to him.
" I Love You..." he said
I went silent and thought.... he feels the same.
"I love you too." I said
He turned his head a kissed me on the forehead. Then we both fell asleep.
I woke up the next morning. Letting Keaton sleep while I clean up everything around him. Then I woke him up and we packed the 'sweet dreams' away. It was 10am and I was praying no one was awake yet. We got home at 11:15am and thank goodness everyone was still asleep. we both went to our own rooms. Then waited until everyone woke.
Ok guys so that was that haha.. sorry I haven't updated I know it's been a while but school just started so I didn't have much time. so hope you liked this chapter and yea!
