Dwight finally hit the brakes, rolling to a stop on the side of an empty dust road and dropped his head against the steering wheel. He hated himself. He hated everything. Why did he leave? Everything was suddenly…too real. Him, Micah, the engagement. And not only was he leaving the love of his life. No, he was also leaving any chance of an actual future. Suddenly leaving Dalton…not even out of high school yet…Dwight turned his head and looked at phone sitting in the passenger seat. The tight feeling in Dwight's chest seemed to draw the hunter closer. The boy jerked himself away, biting back a sob.
No. He couldn't go back. He can't contact anyone back at hom-…back at the school.. It wouldn't work. He couldn't even say goodbye to anyone. Not the Twins, not Derek, and certainly not Micah. Well, not face to face. All he could do was leave his sad excuse of a goodbye in Micah's voicemail.
God, Dwight thought, banging his head against the steering wheel once more. Why was he so stupid? The hunter lifted his head slightly, looking at the picture of Micah he had on his dashboard. His smile, the sunlight streaming through his soft golden curls… Dwight absentmindedly ran his hand over the ring held on a chain around his neck.
Everything that had ever mattered- and ever will- was at Dalton. His home.
Dwight sent another exasperated look toward the passenger seat and grabbed his phone, climbing out of his car. The runaway looked the large field and into the warm sunset.
It's never too late, Dwight contemplated, gripping his phone tight, but now is way too soon. With that thought, the hunter pulled back his arm as far back as possible and threw the phone far into the golden field as he could, then climbed back into his impala, driving toward the sun once more
As I said on the summary, this was based off of a Dalton role play I was involved in on Tumblr. Dwight and Micah were engaged, happily...and somewhat unstable... But after my parents found my Tumblr...well, I'm not allowed on anymore, so I made Dwight leave as a kind alternative to killing him off. Not that all his, erm, adventures will be very delightful.
