But how do you put that into words?
She took a pretty good shot at it. "Love you," she whispered, opening her eyes and looking at Nate. Lame attempt but it was really all she had. She kissed him lightly, then pulled away slightly to glance over at Pam and the ghost boy. Maybe she'd do better on this one. "Hey Pam?" she called. "I need you, you know that?" She relied on Pam a lot more than she'd initially realised. Nate was amazing, but sometimes she needed the stability of another girl as a friend.
Keegan would have called it vulnerability, Des would have called it feeling, and Jez called it being human.

She was happy, off in her own little world for once. Which didn't really happen anymore. And she knew it'd end soon. Either by going to sleep, and having nightmares, or someone getting a letter. But she didn't let that bother her. Not now. She was glad she finally felt needed. By both her friends.
