<Sean POV>

I opened the door carefully as I tried to make sure that it didn't creak. I slipped myself inside my room as I closed my eyes and took a deep breath before searching for Kaycee. I shut the door and I quickly snapped my head and found her laying on the bed. She's probably already asleep. No. We need to talk, Kayc.

I walked towards my cupboard and quickly changed before approaching Kaycee. I nudged her gently.

'Hey Kayc, are you up?' I asked her. She moved her body ever so slightly as she let out a small groan. She opened her eyes carefully.

'W-what are you doing here? Sarah told me that you were only coming back tomorrow' she said. I ignored her question as I pulled her up and into my embrace.

'I'm so sorry Kayc' I whispered. She held onto my tightly as she nuzzled her head into the crook of my neck. 'Im sorry I forgot. I know how important it is to you'

'Don't worry about' she said as confidently as possible but I could tell she was disappointed. Her voice shook a little bit and when I lifted her chin off of my neck, I swear I saw tears pool in her eyes. 'Guess you can't always have what you want' She said.

'Oh Kayc... I'm so sorry I'll make it up to you, I promise' I told her as guilt started to eat me up.

She chuckled lightly, ' I'm just tired, let's talk about it tomorrow' she said laying back in the bed. I nodded my head before getting under the covers and cuddling her into me. 

'Good night Kayc...' 

<Kaycee POV>

It had been two hours since Sean left for his date with Sean. I was currently lying on the bed. Sarah had told me that Sean was staying over at Tate's house so I decided it's was just better to sleep than stay up. Or I could watch the eclipse. But the main reason I was excited was because i got to do it with Sean. Well not anymore.

I felt tears prick in my eyes at the thought of Sean leaving me for Tate started to crawl in. He really forgot about it. About me.

.

'Good night Kayc...' i heard him say as he brought my head to his chest. Comfort. I hummed I response as I wiped my tears away and wrapped my arms around him. Gotta enjoy this, while it lasts. But why did he come back home? Did Tate cancel it, last minute? What happened? 

.

I woke up to the sound of the birds chirping. It really is true when people say bird chirping can put an instant smile on your face. I rubbed my eyes before I peered them open, just to see Sean staring back at me, his eyes filled with worry.

That's when the thoughts of last night filled my memory. Sean forgetting about the eclipse. Me crying. Sean coming back and saying he was sorry. A frown replaced my smile as I bit my lips and focused on my thoughts.

'...Morning Kayc' Sean said bringing me out of my thoughts.

'Hey'  I replied.

'Look, I just want to say that I'm really s-'

'Don't worry about it, Sean. Really. It just a stupid lunar eclipse, anyways' I said cringing at the use of my words. Stupid lunar eclipse? It was anything but that.

'No Kayc, I forgot. I'm so sorry. Stay over today, please, I'll make it up to you. I promise on my life this time' 

'Its okay Sean, besides I've gotta head back home today' I said shuffling out of the bed. I was making my way to the bathroom when Sean got a grip of my wrist.
