After a long day she went to his house. She just walked right on up to his room and crawled into his bed with him. He was reading and didn't even look up when she came in, just put his arm around her and held her as she cried. He was no good at advice or consoling with words, but the silence was enough for now. All she needed was someone to be there for her.
They stayed like that for a while but she had to be home soon. She sat up, wiped her eyes and began walking to the door. Once she was there she looked back. He was reading again, but looked up when he noticed her looking at him. He offered her a small smile. It wasn't much, but it was enough to make her heart feel whole again.
Who knew? Maybe one day she would stay the night. Maybe she would never cry over anyone again. Maybe he was the one who could make her happy.
