Rhett's POV

"Goodnight Hallie." I said as I closed the door to her room. I could tell she had been crying all day yesterday, her face had that look to it, and she wasn't being her normal self. I understood her pain. She barely ate either, every once and a while she would have some cereal or water, but not that much. I crawled into bed next to Jessie. "What should we do?" She asked me. I rested my head on my pillow and replied, "I have no idea."

I woke up and looked over at the clock, Two-Forty three. I thought I heared noise downstairs, so I grabbed a brush and headed downstairs. When I got downstairs, Doctor Who was on the tv, and Hallie sitting on the couch, drawing. From what I could see, it was a picture of her family, all together. Then I saw the glow of her phone, she was using a ref. I dropped the brush in awe. Hallie whipped her head around and starred at me. "Sorry. I... I should go to bed." She reached for the remote to turn the tv off, but I interruptted. "Its fine." I sat down next to her. "Nice art..." I said, trying to say somthing. "Thanks, I had a really mean art teacher last year, and I kept a steady 102%, lots of extra credit." She said, we both laughed and turned out attention to Doctor Who. 'The Angels Take Manhattan,' one of my favorite episodes. Hallie leaned her head on my shoulder, I was glad she was happy now. "Do you wanna go to the studio tomorrow?" Hallie smiled. "Yeah, I guess so..." After a while, I looked down. Hallie had curled her arms around me, and fell asleep. I wrapped mine around hers and fell asleep as well.
