I look at Graze. He's acting weird, I shrug and see that Shelby was done talking to the officer. I walk towards her as she turns to me. Her eyes all watery. I tilt my head as she extends her arms for a hug. I then hug her.

   "Shelby, what's going on?" I ask her. "I'm sorry," her voice came out as a whisper. Scott then came over and whispered something to her. Scott then told me to follow him. So Thats what I did. He pulled me aside and started to explain.

   "Liam, last night, Grazer and Shelby were on a date. They left Grace and Will at home." I nodded my head in agreement. "Somebody came inside the house," my eyes widened "Will sacrificed his life for Grace's". Tears started to fall as I covered my mouth. "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, I knew what he meant to you- I'm- im so sorry." I looked up at Scott after hearing his voice crack, his eyes watering. I opened my mouth to say something, anything, but nothing came out.

   Then it came out. A slight noise, then came "th-thank you for letting me know-." I turned around and started to walk home.

    I woke up to the sound of knocking at my door. I don't remember how long it's been since the talk with Scott. I looked at the clock, 1:37pm I groaned.  I stood up and walked down stairs, I opened the door to see Grace and Shelby. I softly sighed, "how may I help you?" "Can we come in?" Shelby asked. I nodded my head as I shuffled to the side:

     "How are you doing Liam?" "Fine.." "Liam don't you know how long it's been?" "Tw-Three days?" "It's been a week, everybody's worried" they shouldn't be, I'm fine" Shelby looked at me.

    "Liam?" She started, "yeah..?" "Were you and Will dating?" I tried to look everywhere but her face. "Liam?" She asked again. "Yes, *it came out as a whisper* we were dating.." "how long?" "Two years" I murmur, looking away. She sighed, "Liam, I'm not mad, I'm happy, but, Liam, he wanted to give this to you." Grace stood up and handed me a PókeBall, I took it and held it in my hand, a soft smile was on my face. For once I a while this place was happy instead of gloomy darkness.

  I opened it, I gasped, my hand flew to my mouth as I softly spoke 'yes, I do'.
