"Why max?" He asked me. I tried to look away but he pulled my head back to him. "Don't look away. Please tell me."

"I-it's because,um........." my voice trailed off. "My best friend almost killed me. She threatened my life. And my family's life's as well. And I don't even know why. And the next thing I know I have the government breathing up and down my neck trying to know why I was keeping to myself and not saying anything. And as if that wasn't enough, my mom died 1 year ago and my dad decided that this would be the perfect time to tell me that he was getting married in a week. And when he did, some stupid guest thinks it's funny to shoot a gun at the wedding. So my dad and step mom pack up within a few hours while I'm out in the truck in the back seat with a pair of crutches at my side!!!" I said desperately trying not to cry at the memory but failing.

"It's ok." Nathan said realizing that I was starting to cry. Tears started to roll down my face is I tried to breathe while crying. "It's ok to cry max." He said is my head lay against his shoulder. I was crying like that for five minutes and then I finally stopped. I haven't cried in a while. It's been at least 1 1/2 years and it fell so good to finally cry. I don't know why. I just enjoyed letting them out. I heard a crunch! Behind us and I turned around to see who it was. Maddy was standing there with a frozen look on her face.

"It's ok. I haven't told anyone that and it felt good to say. Just, please don't tell anyone Maddy. People aren't supposed to know why I moved here. Please." I begged Maddy.

"Don't worry. I won't tell." She says noticing that I was still crying. "This might seem out of the blue but, why are you guys out here?" She asked and I explained everything. I can't believe that I have found true friends. I was so surprised that when we went back inside, I actually fell asleep. Seeing as how I don't sleep very well and all.
