~The Next Morning~

((Sam's POV))

I was laying in Harper's bed, staring up at the ceiling. It was currently 6:30 am. I haven't got any sleep. I have been too busy thinking about Harper. She didn't deserve to die or to be a vampire, and she didn't deserve to lose our parents. Harper was just an innocent person.

I sighed sadly as I turned and laid on my stomach while resting my head on my arms. I stayed in this position for what felt forever. But when I checked the time it was only 7:15.

I was supposed to be going to school today but I really don't feel like moving. All I want to do is lay in bed all day. I don't have to school really because theirs no one here to boss me around anymore.

I wish someone was here with me. I wish Colby was. He makes me happy even without me knowing it. Even though after everything that has happened, I still love him to bits and pieces.

I soon heard a knock on the door. It startled me a little bit if I'm being honest. I groaned before rolling my eyes and getting out of the bed to walk downstairs. It's not even 8 o'clock who could be here at this hour? I thought to myself as I walked slowly to the door.

Before opening it I made my self look a bit more presentable. I quickly fixed my hair and clothes before unlocking the door and turning the doorknob.

I was shocked but also happy to see who was standing there.

It was Colby.

"Hey, Sam." He smiled softly. "I just wanted to see how you were doing." Colby said. "I'm... doing..." I looked down. I felt arms wrap around me, bringing my into a warm hug. I couldn't help but hug back. I dug my head into his chest, feeling safer this way.

"I'm here for you, okay?" Colby rested his chin on my head and said. I just nodded in his chest, feeling my eyes start to swell up with tears. I was trying to hold them back, not wanting Colby to hear me cry, but it didn't help. In fact, it got worse; I completely broke down. Every inch of my body started to shake as tears poured down my face like a waterfall.

"Hey, Sam, what's wrong?" Colby asked worryingly as he pulled away from the hug and looked at me. I couldn't get any words out of my mouth. I just shook my head and pulled him close to me, putting my head back into it's original position and continued to cry.

"It's okay, Sam. I got you. Just try and take deep breaths for me, okay? Try and focus on the pace of my heart beat." Colby said calmly while rubbing my back in circles. I tried to do what he told me to do and it kind of worked. I felt my breathing slow down after some time of listening to the sound of Colby's heart thumping peacefully in his chest.

Once I finally managed to calm down fully after a few short minutes, I pulled away from Colby and wiped my eyes with my sleeve of the sweatshirt that I was wearing.

I went into the living room and sat on the couch crisscrossed. Colby followed me and sat beside me.

"Are you okay?" He asked. I scoffed in disbelief. "Does it look like I'm okay?" I asked. "I'm sorry, it's an instinct." Colby defended. "What's wrong, Sam? Please just tell me everything that's going on." Colby pleaded. "My parents died with me thinking that they didn't really support me as being gay, my best friend is a vampire, my uncle and Devyn's mom died because of you, and my sister is dead now because she tried to stop your brother from killing himself." I told him with both anger and sadness in my voice. "There's more if you want me to keep going." I shrugged and crossed my arms.

"Sam, I'm sorry for whatever your going through right now. I can help you go through this-" "I don't want any help right now. I just want to be alone. Okay? That's all I'm asking." I said. Colby let out a small defeated sigh. "Before I go can I ask you something?" He questioned. "Sure. Why the h*ll not." I said. "W-Why did you sleep with Cole?" Colby asked. Sh*t I forgot he knew that! "Answer me honestly please?" He said.

"I don't know, Colby. I was too caught up in the moment and wasn't thinking. And I wasn't the biggest fan of you that day because of what you did." I answered honestly. Colby nodded then got up. "I'll see you later." He said then walked away and out the door.

I sighed after he left then decided to go back upstairs. I walked slowly up the steps, barely bringing my legs up high enough to go up a new step. I went back into Harper's old room, and jumped when I saw who was in there.
