November Skies

Chapter 5: Can We Start Over?

Vitality shows in not only the ability to persist but the ability to start over.

F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940),

November 20th

Evening

It had been 4 days since the whole incident, Jill was offered help for her suidal attempts but all in all Jill decided that she wouldn't try anything stupid like that for awhile. For goodness sake all she had been through anybody would've tried to kill themselves well at least this was Jill's philosophy.

Jill walked into the guest room seeing Claire and Rebecca playing a rousing game of UNO with Rebecca snickering at her hand of winning cards while Claire picked aimlessly at the deck trying to match the color card Rebecca had laid out.

Jill plopped onto the couch shaking her head, she hadn't talked to anybody since she was released from the hospital she had locked herself in her room and only acknowledged someone with a "yes" or "no".

She felt guilty but it wasn't like she much of anything to talk about to anyone, well there was still one person a person she definitely needed a heart to heart with.

"Come on Bec, you know how impatient I am, would you just go ahead and beat me already." Claire pouted throwing her hands up in defeat.

"Sorry, it's just funny when you look through the cards trying to find a Draw five Wild card." Rebecca laughed laying her hand out which consisted if all the Draw Five Wild cards

"How the-" Claire looked dumbfounded

Chris walked out of his room which was across from the kitchen, and looked at the younger girls dealing another hand for UNO then looked to the couch and saw the back of Jill's head.

Chris looked at her and decided it was time to acknowledge her about the whole hospital thing.

"Uh Claire, could you excuse us for a second." Chris whispered to her

"Huh? Oh!" Claire gasped then signaled Rebecca to come with her.

As Claire and Rebecca left Chris walked up to Jill, Claire on the other hand found this to be a perfect opportunity to stop and be nosy.

"Claire!" Rebecca whisper shouted.

"Shh! I wanna listen" Claire said ducking behind a island that was located in the kitchen

Rebecca sneered but curiosity got the best of her and she found herself kneeling next to Claire.

Jill looked behind her and saw Chris's face then she turned around as if she hadn't seen him.

"Jill I think it's about time we talk." Chris said firmly

"There's nothing to talk about." Jill said with a slight annoyance in her tone.

"No there is something we need to talk about." Chris said getting in front of her

Jill looked up at him then shifted on the couch, and crossed her arms.

"Ok fine I wasn't right in the head I-I was just having problems ok! Is that what you wanna here!?" Jill questioned.

"No" Chris simply answered yet as calmly as possible, the last thing he wanted was another yelling contest between the two of them.

Jill looked taken aback at his response, then rubbed her eyes which were starting to become watery.

"Why are you holding back Jill?" Chris asked

Jill just shrugged like a young child in trouble.

"That doesn't my question, why are you holding back?" Chris asked again

"Why does it matter you don't care." Jill said getting up and heading towards her room.

Chris grabbed her wrist and pulled her back towards the couch.

"You're not walking away from me." Chris said somewhat harshly

Jill looked at him sneering and angry but deep down she was glad Chris was being persistent with her.

"Ooo this is getting good." Claire said overacting somewhat

"Shh" Rebecca said looking intently at the so called show in front of her.

"Now for the last time, why are you holding back?" Chris looked at her intently

"Because I…I'm scared." Jill said sniffling

"Of what? There's nothing to be afraid of." Chris said calmly

"Chris I'm scared I'm losing it! I'm losing everything!…everyone…" Jill cried out

Chris looked at her with sympathy, he grabbed her shoulders firmly and looked at her.

Jill looked away embarrassed that she was crying in front of him.

"Jill look at me." Chris said soothingly

Jill couldn't help but not look at him.

"You haven't lost anything or anybody…and you…haven't lost me either." Chris whispered to her.

Jill's vision blurred and she found herself in an embrace with Chris.

"When is all this gonna end?" Jill sniffed and cried into Chris's shoulder.

"I think it's already over Jill, you just have to accept it." Chris explained stroking her hair.

"What about…us? Chris, what about you…and me? Jill asked softly

Chris raised his eyebrows then smiled.

"We'll have to see…" Chris simply smiled

"Don't ever leave me alone Chris…I'm a wreck without you." Jill sighed still crying somewhat

Chris just smiled, and held Jill until he heard sniffling from in the kitchen.

"Claire get a hold of yourself before Chris finds out we're-" Rebecca stopped mid-sentence

"But it's-so beautiful." Claire sniffed

Rebecca shrugged as she saw Chris and Jill peer over the island to find them.

"Ahem!" Chris said obviously

"Uh I uh was looking for uh some tissues and uh-" Claire tried obviously to make up some cockamamie lie.

Jill laughed a little at Claire's antics.

"Well it's been one hectic week, I think its about time we go do something fun." Rebecca suggested

Jill smiled at Chris and the others and walked away from them without saying a word.

Chris started after her but Claire shook her head silently telling him to let her go.

***

Jill leaned on the balcony feeling the cold November winds on her face, she inhaled the cold wind and looked at the mountains that were on the horizon and as the sun set over them she closed her eyes and smiled.

Jill looked up at the soon to be moon, it was deja-vu all over again, but this time her future seemed a lot more brighter.

For Jill, it was not about a beginning or an end. It was about a life she shared with Chris and her friends and the joy of knowing that her journey through life would continue for a long time to come…
