(Trace's pov)

I stood there silently just staring down at Kastle.

"w-what?" I stuttered.

"you heard me she's dead! she's dead and it's all my fault!" he's now sobbing.

"No, Kastle stop blaming yourself. it's not your fault."

I hold him against my chest stroking his black hair. I can't stand the sound of him sobbing.

"c'mon Kastle, please stop crying everything's going to be OK." he looks up at me, his face red and wet.

"o-o-ok i'll try to calm down." he said wiping his face with the sleeve of her hoodie. "I guess I'll be moving in with you then?" he asks me.

"Yeah I guess so." I said and smiled.

He stares at me and smiles his adorable smile.

"I love it when you smile, It's so nice." he says.

I'm slightly taken by this and blush slightly. "umm T-thanks." I say this still smiling. "n-now go wash your face your eyeliner is running down your face."

"alright" he said and walks to the bathroom.

I walk over to the bed and flop down,

He comes out a little later and joins me on the bed, snuggling his face against my chest. I start to play with his hair; It's so soft.

"Kastle?"

"Yeah?" he looks up at me.

"umm, you know that we still have school today, right?" I say giving him a curious grin.

"Oh yeah, I forgot."He looks down as though staring at my heart.

"You know? what this morning's been a little rough, do you wanna skip?"

"Sure." he says and snuggles his face back into my chest letting out a sigh.

I close my eyes trying to forget what happened and remember just why I love Kastle more than I can ever scream.
