Miles to Go.
Courtney looked around the loft one last time, she tried not to cry, but couldn't stop the tears from welling up in her eyes. She was so confused, she couldn't stay here, it was suffocating her. She saw him all the time, him and Sonny working together. And each time she saw him it was like he broke her heart all over again. The pain was like a knife ripping through her chest, like she had no air. She had to escape, had to get away, she needed.. she didn't know what she needed but she didn't think she'd find it here.
Her mind would wander back just a few days, when he said that they couldn't be together because her life was too dangerous. Then back almost a week to the last time together, it was so perfect, she remembered the feelings of falling asleep in his arms. It was perfect. Maybe that's what was wrong. Maybe perfection is a myth. Like love is a myth, that's what her mother had always told her for as long as she could remember. She wanted so desperately to prove her wrong, but here she is all alone.
When it came right down to it she knew her mother was right, the only one you could depend on was yourself. She felt like a fool, for believing Jason when he had said he loved her. She hated herself for letting herself fall for him. And she hated him for making her feel all these things and completely pushing her out of his life. Hell, he couldn't even look at her if they ran into each other. Was she really that bad? Did he really think her that weak?
No. Of course not, Sonny did.
Courtney refused to cry. She felt so ashamed and she didn't even know why. She had to get out, leave the humiliation behind. Courtney headed towards the door and tried not to look back as she exited the building, and then as she exited Port Charles.
