Lilah's Pov
The first night was pretty rough. Ryan came in to check on me multiple times. He ended up staying with me instead of getting up every fifteen minutes.

I was curled into his chest, his arms wrapped around me protectively. I couldn't stop shaking.

" It's going to alright. " Ryan mumbles ruffling my hair.

" I miss home. " I say softly.

" I know, maybe later we can go to your house and pick up some of your stuff. We'll put together the funeral and we'll figure out all the foster care stuff. It'll be okay, I promise. " Ryan says wiping off my mascara tears.

I sit up and lean against the headboard. " I wanna punch someone. "
Ryan giggled. " Don't punch me. "

" I won't. " I say clutching onto the pillow.

" are you hungry? " Ryan asks.

" No. " I lied.

" C'mon, get up. You need food. " Ryan says dragging me out of bed.

I groaned and followed him to the kitchen. He looks at me and smiles softly.

" Any allergies? " Ryan asks.

" Lactose but I don't give a fuck because I love ice cream. "I say giggling.

" That's a pretty good reason, I guess. "

Ryan opens the fridge door and giggles.

" What do you wanna eat? " Ryan asks.

" Cheese. " I say.

" Cheese? " Ryan asks.

" Cheese! " I say giggling.

" you're a strange one, Lilah. " Ryan says throwing a cheese stick at me.

I open it and peel the cheese off. Ryan plops himself onto the couch and turns on the tv.

" Hey, Ry? " I ask.

" Yeah? " Ryan asks.

" what if you got milk from the same cow more then once... " I say giggling.

" what the fuck. " Ryan says gaping up at the ceiling.

I laughed and sat next to him. " Think about it. "

" I am! What the hell... I've never thought about that. " Ryan said laughing.

My phone dinged, it was a text from Abby.

" She texted... At 6 in the morning? " Ryan asks.

" I guess she did. " I say smiling a tiny bit.

" You really like her, don't you? " Ryan asks smiling.

" Oh dude, she makes me mega gay. " I say blushing.

" That's not a bad thing. " Ryan says softly.

" I guess not. " I say smiling.

" So I was thinking, In an hour or so we can go to your place so you can gather some of your stuff. " Ryan says.

I bit my lip. " Okay. "

Time Skip to when they get to Lilah's house

" Is this it? " Ryan asks pulling into the driveway.

I nod and rubbed my eyes. " Yep. "

I get out of the car and walk up to the front door. I unlocked the door and went inside.

" Shoes off? " Ryan asks.

I gasp. " Wanna destroy the house? "

" No! " Ryan says laughing.
