Chloe's POV

Don't you ever have those nights where you can't sleep? That's me right now and it's irritating as fuck because my mind won't shut up. It's like 2, 3 a.m. or some shit and I've been staring at the ceiling for the past 5 hours. I tried everything, music, smoking and I still can't sleep. I can't really talk to anyone because all of Arcadia Bay is asleep. I finally came to the conclusion that I wasn't gonna go to sleep anytime soon so I grab my keys and went to my truck without waking up my mom or stepdouche. I drive to the lighthouse because that's where I go to clear my head or whenever I have nights like this.

When I get there I sit on the bench that gives you a great few of the ocean and Arcadia Bay. I light a cigarette and look down at Arcadia Bay. I wonder how can such a small shit town can cause me such misery. But I guess not all is bad since I have my girlfriend Rachel. I'm surprised she hasn't left me yet like everyone else in my life. Why does she even love me? I'm a big emotional mess and she's always been there to pick up the pieces whenever I break.

Is she only dating me because she feels sorry for me? Does she really even love me? I smack myself on the forehead. No she isn't you idiot, she isn't like that! What we have is real, I love her and she loves me...hopefully. I'll have to admit I did and kinda still do have some doubts about our relationship. She promised she wouldn't do anything but-

"But what? You think that she's a tramp that sleeps with everybody in town?" I hear my conscience ask cutting of my thought. Of course I don't but...what if she gets tired of me? She's gonna get tired of me since I chase everybody I care about away. With a girl like her she should've left me on day one. My thoughts got cut off by some footsteps. I put out my cigarette and turn my head to see who it was. "I knew that was you driving this late at night." I hear a familiar voice say.

It was Rachel...who was wearing my old hoodie which I could've sworn I threw out since it had holes in it. "How did you know to find me here and why are you wearing my old hoodie?" I ask. "Well you're the only that I know who drives to the light house in the middle of night and because fuck it I wanted to take something that isn't mine, and it smelled like you." She says sitting next to me. "Wait how did you know I do that?" I ask looking at her. "Well this is the place you like to go to at night and I've seen you drive past my house a few times. Care to tell me what's wrong?" She asks putting her elbow on her knee and rested her head on her hand while looking at me. "Just couldn't sleep." I half lie.

I really didn't want her to know what I've been thinking because I didn't want to offend her or anything like that. "You would tell me if there's something wrong right?" She asks with a sad expression. "Of course I would, your the only person I feel comfortable talking to." I say putting my hand on her back. "I know this might sound a hella cheesy but...I don't like seeing you upset, it hurts." She says laying her head on my shoulder. "Well for what it's worth I don't think it's cheesy at all." I say looking down at her. She puts my arm around her and scoots closer to me. I could see her falling asleep a bit.

"Chlo?" She says sleepily. "Yeah Rach?" I say. "I...love..you." She says before falling asleep. I kiss her head and smile a bit. "I love you too Rachel." I say laying my head on hers. So I might be an Idiot but fuck it...

I'm the luckiest idiot in the world
