IMMORTAL

Chapter Eight

Blake woke up at 6 in the morning and grabbed her poem book and a bouquet of yellow tulips...Blair's favorite type. She headed down to the burial grounds of lake view cemetery. She sat at the grave of Blair's grave and begun to sing.

I'm not doing much better because I'm missing half of me
And being here without you it's like I'm waking up to
Only half a blue sky
Kinda there but not quite
I'm walking around with just one shoe
I'm half a heart without you
I'm half a girl at best
With half an arrow in my chest
I miss everything we do
I'm half a heart without you

Tears ran down her cheek as her heart melted at the memories that flashed across her mind of her and Blair dancing down by the lake in the moonlight while she sang to her.

"I w-wwrote you a poem" she said heart broken and stuttering.

Now that you've left me it's hard to move on
Now that you've left me
I wake up in the morning and I'm reminded you're gone
You changed my life so much
And I never got to say thank you for that
All I can do is clench and hold on to the memories that come back to me when I see your favorite hat
Blair I'm so sorry I couldn't help you
To wipe your tears when you cried
Blair,I just want to say I love you and I wish you would've given me the chance to say ...... goodbye.

Blake rested the tulips ontop of her grave and sat and sobbed quietly into her hoodie sleeve. "Blake" She heard a voice say behind her. It was Riley. Riley sat next to her and pulled her closely to her while the girl cried into her shirt. "I'm sooo sorry". "I just wish she would of told me what was going on with her" Blake said crying. "I can tell you really loved her" Riley said sighing. "I followed you cause you got out of beg and woke me up" she said stroking her soft blonde hair. Blake stopped crying after 10 minutes but Riley continued to hold her.   "I love you"  
Before Riley could realize what slipped out of her mouth she had already said it. It was too late

Holy shit
She thought
I hope she didn't hear that

BLAKES POV
Did she just say what I think she just said
I held my head up off of her shirt and looked at her."did you say something?"
I asked hoping she'd repeat it.
"Uuhhhh me? No no never I didn't say anything" she said looking nervous. "Alright" I said giving her the I heard what you said but I'm not gonna dwell on it look. She smiled nervously at me.
I laughed. "Your nervous smile is kinda cute"
She blushed "Why thank you"
"Anytime"
......
THIRD PERSON POV
Blake walked Riley to go get her stuff and to her doorstep. "I'm not gonna go to school today" Blake said giving Riley her pink duffel bag. Riley was about to go inside and Blake decided to clear the air

"Oh and Riley .... I know you love me .... I mean who wouldn't" Riley chuckled and then went home leaving Riley standing with her jaw dropped.
