I lay on my bed, staring at the wall.I clung to my bracelet and tried to choke back tears.I texted Matthew.

From: Katelan to: Matthew

Hey

Within a few seconds he texted back saying

From: Matthew to:Katelan

Hey,I miss you already, it's so boring here without you

To Matthew from Kate,

I know,I miss you to,I really do,I wish I could call you but Yohio spent the night and I don't want to wake him,but I want to hear your voice again.

I set my phone on the table and close my eyes, then I realized what I just said to him and grabbed the phone.I put my face in my hands and waited for his reply,I can't fix what I just did.

To Kate from Matthew,

I wish I could see you again,hey, can I get your address so I can send you something?

To Matthew from Kate,

Sure, it's @;-@( on trinity court, Sweden.

To Kate from Matthew,

ok, thanks and sorry I have to go my mom's forcing me to go to some antique shop with her.Bye.

To Matthew from Kate,

Mkay, bye.

I set my phone down and looked at Yohio laying on my couch peacefully.I scoot closer to him and put my hand on his face.I remember the first time we met. Its been 5 months.I sigh and go in my room and shut the door.I go into my closet and move the little rug I had sitting on the floor.I then bend down and pull the trap door up and walk down the stairs shutting the door behind me.I hit the lights. It was my own little recording studio.I had the machines to record music, and the sound proof recording booth.I had my guitar and keyboard down here to, with a red couch pushed up against a wall, my mini fridge with it.I walk over and enter my recording booth and play Clarity by Zedd.

I dive in the frozen waves

where the past comes back to life

If I fear for the selfish pain

It was worth it every time

Hold still right before we crash

Cause we both know how this ends... our clock ticks and it breaks your glass and I drown in you again....

Cause you are the piece of me

I wish I didn't need

Chasing relentlessly

I still fight and I don't know why

If our love is tragedy why are you my remedy?

If our love's insanity why are you my clarity?

I finish the song and go back upstairs, remembering to put the rug back where it was before.I turn off the light on my way out of my closet and go into the kitchen.Yohio is still sleeping. Jet lag I think to myself and nod.I go up to him and am about to wake him up when I hear someone at the door.I leave Yohio on the couch and go open the door.
