Lexi is broken.
And what does that mean? It means that she needs someone to heal her heart. Put the pieces back together.
That can't be Finn though, right? Because he is broken as well. Almost at the same places as her.
But two broken hearts creat...

I've seen death.
I looked into its eyes several times. And one thing I know about it?
Death is a bitch.
It takes people who don't deserve it and lets live those who have no place on earth.
I looked at Lexi who hadn't moved from the couch for hours, staring at nothing. She didn't make a single sound, and I was afraid that if I said something, it would only hurt her more.
After I got her out of the hospital, I tried to help her. But how? There is nothing I can do really. And if there was something, if I could trade places with Jeremy, I would.
When I opened the door that evening, I didn't expect Lincoln to be standing behind it. I didn't know what it was, but from one look at him, I knew something was wrong. However, I did not expect what happened next.
With tea, which I know won't help much now, I sat down on the couch next to her and put it on the table. I didn't know if I could hug her. I was afraid that she would fall apart in my arm, and then what? How could I fix that?
She slowly began to move, still without a word, and lowered her head onto my lap. She closed her eyes with a soft sob and it broke my heart to hear it.
She fell asleep in a few hours, probably from exhaustion. I didn't move an inch so I wouldn't accidentally wake her up. However, I didn't close my eyes, I just held her, hoping that we would get through this.
I remember her saying that she couldn't lose anyone else.
And since that happened, what happens now?

It wasn't a nightmare and that means I woke up this morning to a world without Jeremy.
Why can't I believe it? Why am I still waiting for him to walk through the front door with a smile and a good morning?
"I made breakfast." I heard Finn as I was coming back from the bathroom.
"I'm not hungry, but thanks."
"Lexi, you need to eat something. Please."
"I'm not hungry," I repeated and continued walking towards the front door.
