I heard a noise coming from my window and looked over after I scraped the tears off of my wet cheeks. It was Abby, probably coming to see what happened. I bit my lip and looked away from her as she leaned against my windowsill. "Are you okay?" she asked, not daring to set foot on the roof. "I saw you run upstairs. It looked like you were upset."

"No, I'm fine," I answered shakily, staring at the green trees swaying in the delicious breeze. "I just, overreacted to nothing, it's okay."

"Was it Abel?" she asked expertly, cocking an eyebrow and cautiously crawling onto the roof. I nodded and felt a lonely tear roll down my cheek. "That boy needs bloody girl help!" I laughed, but didn't stop the tears from falling down my cheeks. "I'm sorry. I should have warned you about him."

"No, it's fine. It's my own bloody fault for believing he's any different from his sister," I moaned, biting my nail and trying to stop my lip from trembling. "God! Why am I so stupid!"

"You're not. It's his own fault for being a--" Abby was interrupted by the figure of Abel standing at my window. I glared at him and watched as he motioned for Abby to leave. Abby silently acquiesced and crawled through the window, shooting me one last furtive glance. As Abel courageously crawled out onto the roof, I glared at the trees and tried my best not to look at him.

"What do you want?" I growled, through clenched teeth. I could see him duck his head down and sigh as though he was thinking hard. "That wasn't a rhetorical question. You are supposed to answer it!"

"I know," he answered angrily, turning his harsh green eyes on my own. "I guess what I came to say is that Riely left."

"And?" I hissed harshly, flicking my long dark curls behind my shoulder. "Did you honestly think that that was going to make me run back into your arms and scream your name and whisper sweet love in your ears!" I narrowed my eyes at him and watched as he shrunk underneath the power of my anger. "That's what I thought!"

"Acacia . . . ." he sighed, shaking his head.

"What?!" I snapped, twisting my body away from him. I felt his warm hand on my shoulder, sending a flash of warmth through my body.

"I'm not good at apologies," he said quietly, bringing his emerald eyes to meet my own.

"Funny. I'm not so good at forgiving," I hissed, standing up and crawling through the window, stepping foot in my room and feeling tears gather at the corner of my eyes. I could hear the bright music playing downstairs and felt it's warm tendrils gather me in their forgiving arms.

"Tired out, not a miracle in days. Deciders for the lonely whispering tears. You try out for nothing then you drop dead, not a miracle in years. Leisure for the lonely whispering unnecessary unless you're in."

I looked at myself in the mirror and saw that new tears had found their way down my chin. How vulnerable could I pretend to be? I looked back at Abel and saw that he was sitting there with his head down and his body tense. I sighed and cursed myself for actually wanting to go out there and console him. I mean, I was upset because he had kissed me and then his girlfriend came and caught us, he went to her and didn't even care about me! How could I even care about him after he killed my feelings like that?!

A knock came at my door and I rolled my eyes, knowing that it was either Tristan or Vondurri. I walked over to the door as soon as the second knock came and opened the door with surprise coming over my face. "What are you doing here?" I asked Scorpius, looking down at his pale blond head. "Why are you here?"

"I saw you were upset, just wanted to make sure you were okay," Scorpius said, lowering his gray eyes. "But I guess you don't need me. I'll just go back downstairs then."

"Yeah. Good choice," I said absentmindedly, shutting the door on him. I put one hand on my hip and the other on my head, trying to understand what was happening. It was only when I saw Abel standing in the middle of my room that I realized how deep his emerald eyes were. How much like chocolate his skin was, and how much I wanted to kiss his pink lips again. "What are you doing in here?" I asked, feigning anger and throwing an article of clothing into my suitcase.

"I had to get back inside somehow," he said sheepishly, smiling at me.

"Wipe that stupid smile off your face!" I hissed, crossing my arms over my chest.

"No need to get upset!"

"Whatever! Just get out of my room!"

"No, I actually like it in here!"

"I don't care!"

"Yeah, you seemed like you didn't care earlier today."

I narrowed my eyes at him and made a move to push him out of my door. Unfortunately, I tripped and almost fell, if it hadn't been for Abel's strong arms wrapping themselves around me and holding me up. He smiled and I couldn't help but smile back. And then, before I knew it, his lips were covering mine, sending a spark through my body. He released me, and I smiled at him, cursing his good looks and charms.

"Die and succeed, I say it out loud but you just don't care. Farewell, well, well, well, well, well, well 'til you know me well. Farewell, well, well, well, well, well, well 'til you know me well. Girlfriend. We are far from home, I am with you now. I'm am longing you, I am longing us two. Who bought a miracle sells these fortune tears." He grabbed my hand and lead me out of my room.

"Did I apologize to you for how horrible I was?" he asked, his green eyes twinkling with sincerity. "Because I am."

"No, but it's all right. I kind of overreacted," I said, my blue eyes falling from their fixated place on his face.

"She wasn't my girlfriend. She just likes to think she is," he explained, a smile twitching on his mouth.

"It must be good to know that you have people vying for your attention."

"Vying, nice word Lestrange."

"Thanks, Vondurri."

"I try." I laughed at that, the last verse of the song filling my mind and my body.

"December's death or glory how you want it? No, not a miracle in years. Deciders for the lonely wishing death unless. Die and succeed. I say it out loud, but you just don't care. Farewell, well, well, well, well, well, well 'til you know me well. Farewell, well, well, well, well, well, well 'til you know me well. Girlfriend. Die and succeed. I say it out loud, but you just don't care. Farewell, well, well, well, well, well, well. Girlfriend." I laughed and looked back at Abel, a smile lighting my entire body.

"Oh, so you went with her," Riely said, her face falling. I stopped, glaring at her with incredible force. "I would have thought you would at least think about it for awhile!"
