Tatem's POV
I ran around the kitchen, giggling as he threw flour, making a 5 star mess in the process. What had been cupcakes was now on the walls, counters, cabinets, and most of all, us. His lips pulled back to show the smile i had fallen in love with, right from the start.
He caught me in his arms and swung me up onto his shoulder, and making me giggle ten times harder. As i started to get light headed, he dropped me on the couch and then ran upstairs. "Where are you going??" I yelled after him.
"GETTING YOUR PRESENT!" Charlie replied. I raked my fingers through my hair and rolled my eyes at all the frosting and flour there was.He pounded downstairs, and next thing I knew a bikini and matching swim shorts was thrown into my lap. Confused, i looked up at him through my eyelashes. With an innocent look, he rushed out and told me: "We'regonnagotofloridatogotodisneylandsinceyou'veneverbeen!!"
"Did i hear you correct? Florida?" I exclaimed and tackled him in a hug but it was short lived. "Wait how'd you get the money?" I questioned.
"My dad had a little money left over from that thing."
"Oh my god Charlie!! I love you so much!" I shouted.****

It was a week before me and Charlie's trip to Florida would happen and i couldn't be more excited! A knock came at the door and i frowned because i knew my parents weren't going to be home until Thursday. I opened the door to see a police officer with a forlorn look on his face, and looked at me with sad eyes."How may I help you officer?"
" Are you Tatem Sanford ma'am?" he inquired.
"Yes yes I am..."
"I think you'd want to sit down for this..." he shifted on his feet and gestures to let him in. I stepped back and sat down on the couch and looked up at him with an expecting look on my face."Earlier this evening a motorcycle accident happened on Route 108 and There was minor injuries and a death..."
I couldn't hold back the tears as I realized what happened. "No no no no no no no no!!!! This must be a mistake! Charlie, oh my poor Charlie! How could this happen? Are you sure it's him?" The questions poured out of my mouth and he stared at his shoes, which answered my question.I reached over to the stand and grasped for my keys, then clutching them i ran out the door. I was unable to stop the tears, and they poured down my face and i tried desperately to wipe them but they kept coming. I climbed into the car and sped down the road to his house. I knocked on the door and hugged myself, wanting to see the people that would know how i was feeling.
Mrs. Debbing opened the door and i rushed into her arms and started sobbing and clinging onto her like a child. She clung onto me too and we stood there in the crisp October air and held each other.
Later i was sitting on the couch and silent tears that demanded to be seen pushed out and rolled slowly down my cheek then dripped onto my sleeve. Soon i fell asleep and saw him, in my kitchen, with his smile lighting the dull space around him. I woke up later and found that my makeshift pillow was soaked, and my arm was suspended in midair as if i was reaching out to something, and I broke down.
