Chapter 56
Yeah I know I haven't updated in a while sorry 'bout that.
I checked the watch for the time.
5:58 pm.
The time was going by fast. The sky got darker and we both still had nowhere to go. Wandering around the same street the whole day gets boring after a while and eventually, it gets tiring (did I spell it right?) too.
Oh how I missed having a nice warm bed and a house and actual food. I look back and regret the fact that I took everything for granted. I look and realize I had everything. And now my everything is gone.
Cold, salty tears drip down my eyes, across my cheek and leaving damp marks on my front. I'd always been a cry baby. I quickly wiped them away in case Claude saw them; I didn't want him to see me like this. The old Claude would have laughed, seeing me weak like this.
But this Claude didn't laugh at me.
'Hey,' he whispered, as I dabbed at the corner of my eye 'I told you not to cry. I don't like it when you cry.' He shuffles through his pocket and hands me a crumpled up piece of tissue, hopeful not used.
I wiped my eyes with the tissue, discretely throw it away afterwards. 'Thanks,' I smile. 'And I'm sorry for all of this. Its all my fault and I dragged you into it, you risked your life just to-'
He cut me off with a small kiss.
'It isn't your fault. Its mine. I was supposed to be looking out for you, protect you but it failed. Raven, I never want to see you hurt and if it means giving up my life then so be it.'
A final tear escaped my eye. But it wasn't of sorrow. 'Claude, that's the nicest thing you ever said to me.' I wrapped my arms around his shoulders, giving him a hug.
Then I suddenly remembered; I didn't lose everything.
I still had Claude.
(A/N idk why but I internally cried while writing this extremely short chapter. Ma babies finally realize they have each other!! All Claude needs to do is officially confess his feelings for her...
P.s. I want to thank you peoples for still reading this even if it sucks. It means so much to me!!!!)
