Ryan's Bed

I crawled into Ryan Jensen's bed that first night by accident.
I barely knew him. I thought it was his sister's bed-her room. It took seconds to realize my error, and I should've left...
I didn't. I didn't jump out. I didn't get embarrassed.
I relaxed.
And, that night, in that moment, it was the only thing I craved.
I asked to stay. He let me, and I slept.
The truth? I never wanted to leave his bed. If I could've stayed forever, I would have.
He became my sanctuary.
Because-four hours earlier-my twin sister killed herself.
