Kellin's POV

     I hold her close and bring her into the living room. The others are already asleep in there bunks. I feel bad for treating them the way I have the last few days, and I keep in mind I should apologize in the morning. We sit down and I pull her onto my lap, rocking her back and forth. Shes tinier then I thought. Shes still sobbing but I can tell shes trying to slow her breathing down. I rub her back trying to comfort her. Then I do something that I didn't think I'd do. I start singing softly to her. "I can save you, if you ask me to, just ask me to. Theres hope for you tonight. If you ask me, just ask me to. I can save your life...you act like your afraid of who you are. I'm afraid for you. Try, trust and believe in me. I can show you theres so much more. Theres still hope for you. Let me show you I can save you..." 

Alli's POV

     Hes singing to me. I don't know what to do but when he does this it starts to calm me down. He has the voice of an angel. I feel like the song hes singing right now is talking straight to me. Maybe I should trust him and tell him everything... I enjoy the warmth of his arms around me but I pull away and look up at him. He looks at me and gives me a small smile. "Are you okay..?" he asks me gently. I answer honestly. "Not really." I get up of his lap and sit next to him. "Do you really want to know what happened..?" I ask hesitently. "Yes, that is if you want to tell me." he answers. I nod. I'm gonna do this, I need someone to listen. "Well, first of all my name is Allison, Allison Berkley. I'm 17 almost 18 in a week." I tell him. He looks at me intently, listening. Someone is willing to actually listen. I continue. Telling him about how my mom treated me, and that I never really even met my dad. I tell him about the one thing I remember my mom tell me about my dad. That he was singing again. I tell him everything. I pour my heart out to him. And when I'm finshed, Kellin gives me a hug.

Kellin's POV

        I know her story now. It heartbreaking, but painfully something that happens to a lot of families. I can relate to her. My dad left to. But what I want to find out is who he is. The story sounds like a different version of something that I was told before. I have to find out.
