Previously: "Norrp." He says. "What did I just do to you?" I ask myself. "I dunno." He says, answering my question he thought I was asking him.

-Next Day-

I had tried to sleep that night and failed. I sat in the chair playing Head Esploder X on my iPhone 5. Ian stirred, even though it was only four o'clock in the morning. I shut off my phone. "M… Madison?" He asks. "What happened?" I go to his side. I kiss his forehead. "I bit you. I'm sorry, but I must go." I'm talking like I'm 1900 now. I turn to leave. "Wait." He whispers. I turn. "What?" "I love you." I look down, tears streaming from my eyes already. "I love you, too." I turn and exit the hotel room. I go down the elevator. "Are you leaving now?" Someone asks as I pass the lobby. "Yes." I answer. "I must go. Are there any papers I have to sign?" I ask. "Yes, please just sign here, here, and here, unless the patient can do it themselves when they are healthy." I drop the pen she gave me. "He can do it. Please tell him I said goodbye." I tell her. "OK, I will." She says. I exit the hospital, thinking about Ian. "What has become of me?" I ask myself. I was going to walk back to Ian and Anthony's shared house because once I got there, I knew where I was going. I kept walking and it took way longer than expected to even get halfway. I must have thought the ambulance truck was way faster than it really was. I walk down the highway and stop to sit over a lake. It was seven o'clock in the morning already, and that meant it would probably be another three hours before I would reach Ian and Anthony's house. I look down at the crashing waves down below me and think of the waves of sadness washing over me at the moment, but I look into the sky and think of the clear skies after this. I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. I pull it out. "Hey Liz." I say. "Hey girl! O-m-g what is going on with you?!" "Well, I said goodbye to Ian and Anthony and am about to get rid of my phone. I'll come meet you when I feel like it." "Uh, ok then, bye." She says. "Bye." I don't even hang up considering it won't work anymore. I drop the phone down into the lake below. I sigh as I stand up and keep walking. I watch as the cars speed past me at high speeds and I'm going so slow.

I finally reach their house at eleven-thirty in the morning. Both cars are there, plus more considering they were filming today. Well, at least I don't have to go in. As I walk past the house, the door opens and I bolt behind a bush. "I saw you." Ian says. "Damn it." I whisper and step out. "What are you doing here?" He asks. "Walking home. I only know how to get home from your house." His face fell. "At least let me take you home, then." He offered. I sigh. "I don't want to risk you getting hurt. But, I did walk seven-and-a-half hours from the hospital, so sure." He unlocked his car and opened the door for me so I could get in. He went about the other side and got in, starting the car. As I saw Anthony walk out, we pulled away from the house and speed down the street. Ian waited longer then he should have to cross. "Go, Ian, you had the chance." "I didn't want that chance. I want a new one." I knew he was talking about me and him, but he said it as if he were talking about the cars. We had to wait another ten minutes in utter silence. After we crossed the street, we got to my apartment in no time. He offered to walk me in again. "You're car will be towed." "It would still be the same amount of time without you." He said. "I don't care about my car; you know that. You also know that I want you." "I want you, too, Ian." I say. "But I can't have you. I don't want to hurt you, or even possibly kill you. I'm sorry." He got out and opened my door for me. I stepped out and he closed the door behind me. He walked me in and insisted I take the elevator. I gave him a hug and said goodbye as we reached the top floor. "Bye." He said. "Bye." "I love you." He says. "I love you, too. I'm sorry." I say through the closing doors. I walked to my room and fumble with the keys. I look at the key with Ian's number on it. I sigh and open the door. I walk it and collapse on the bed. I knew my life was going to be lonely again.
