The nurse looked from Kris to Junior until she understood that they'd known each other from before, and decided to leave, too frustrated to deal with the personal problems of patients. Junior took a seat by Matt, and stared at Kris.

"Junior, I'm fine," Kris insisted, though every part of her was aching. Junior shook his head, as did Matt.

"Kris, we were just worried about you," Matt explained.

"You have no right to worry about me," she stated, her words directed at Junior. Junior's eyes widened, taking in her words.

"Kris, I told you that I still had-have feelings for you."

"But you didn't love me enough," Kris commented, looking out her window, refusing to make eye contact with him. "You thought that I could harm your relationship with Laura, but not break it, so you sent me away." Matt got up and began pacing.

"Guys this isn't about your stupid love quarrel!" Matt snapped. Matt came up to Kris' bedside and grabbed her hand. "Kris, I need you." Junior and Kris both stared at him. "Not like that. But I need you for Flame. He won't run with anyone else."

"Where's Wildfire?" Kris questioned, hearing of Flame. Matt and Junior looked to each other trying to decide what to tell her. "Oh my gosh. He's gone." She went into hysterics, grabbing her knees and sobbing into them. Matt tried to rub Kris' back, but she shoved him away. "Get out! Both of you! Just go!" Junior looked at his best friend, seeing that he was ready to give up.

"You go ahead, Matt," Junior persuaded. "I'll be right out." Junior then came to Kris' side, gently whispering to her. "Kris, you'll be alright-"

"No, I won't!" she shouted. "Wildfire was the only one I lived for!" He then took Kris' chin between his thumb and pointer finger, and forced her to look him in the eye.

"What about me?" he questioned. "You won't live for me?" Kris pulled away from his grasp. She took a moment to think about how much he'd meant to her in the past. She'd buried her feelings away the moment she left Raintree.

"You won't live for me," Kris replied. "So I don't see why I should live for you." Junior let out a deep sigh.

"I love you," he admitted. "And things would've been different if you'd stayed."

"Yeah," she agreed. "They would have." There was a brief silence.

"Kris, please, live. Come back to Raintree. Help Matt."

"No!" Kris shouted. "I never want to touch another horse again!"

"What about Flame?" Junior yelled back. "Are you just going to abandon him?" Kris' sobbed suddenly stopped. "Yeah, Kris, remember? Flame? Wildfire's son?" Kris looked up at Junior, trying to hold in her tears.

"What am I supposed to do, Junior?" Kris asked. "Wildfire is the only one who's been there for me no matter what."

"Kris, he's a horse! People are worth more than horses!"

"Shut up! You seriously think that I'm going to listen to that crap after my family abandoned me, Jean and Pablo abandoned me, Matt abandoned me, and even you abandoned me!" Junior smacked his hand against the wall.

"I didn't want to, I was just-"

"Afraid? Don't you think I was? But I told you how I felt, and you turned me away!"

Junior shook his head. "What now?" Kris inquired
