A/N: This chapter was one of my favorites to write because there is essentially no dialogue, which makes it easier for me (LOL). Anyways, everyone enjoy this-and if you have the song on CD or tape then why don't you hit play when you get to it.

Melody and Gracie-yes, I guess I have made Livvie more likable, and I am so ready for nice Livvie again. I wonder what I'll say the first time I see her kissing Jack-I'll probably start yelling at him to not trust her or something. LOL.

Until next time-ya'll really are the best-PCGirl.


"Did you enjoy your nap?" Alison laughed as they walked into the gym.

"Yeah, I did. Hey, I'm going to go for a short walk," he said. The comments Livvie made before kept going through his head, and he needed to sort them out before going back upstairs with Alison.

"Well, let me put the food up, and I'll join you, ok?"

"Would you mind if I went by myself? I need to sort some stuff out."

"Slayer stuff?" she asked, her mind thinking that he really doesn't care about her anymore.

"Yeah, some of that and other things too. I'll be back later, ok?" he said giving her a kiss.

"Ok," she sighed as she watched him head back out the door. "Wonder how long until you leave me for good," she said under her breath as she began walking up the steps.


Caleb let out a groan as he continued to stare at the paper. When he had been in the Elixir he had started to come up with a song, but since he came back to the loft nothing was coming to him. He read what he had already put down again,

"You think you can escape me,
You think you may finally win.
Well, sweetheart I hate to tell you,
But you can escape your own skin.
When you look in someone else's eyes,
I know all you see is me.
So get over yourself,
And accept the way it has to be."

"Not too shabby," he smirked. "Now if I can just get a few more verses in," he said going back to trying to write, when the rest of the song came to him.

"I can't believe you are back here," said Jack as he walked into the Elixir from dinner at Lucy's. "How was dinner with the whole family?"

"I felt like an outsider. Figured this would be better than anywhere else. I went and saw my mom though before that."

"You haven't been there in awhile," he said, knowing that her mom meant the world to her at one point, and maybe if she could get over Caleb she would be again.


(Musicbegins)

We see Caleb sitting on the couch writing feverishly. He grabs his drink and takes another gulp. Gets up to go to the bar and pours him another. He then walks over to the window, and stares outside.

Rafe walks into Ian's apartment holding the picture of him and Alison in front of the sunset. He sits down on the couch looking at the picture, and then puts the picture on the floor, covering his face with his hands. The camera focuses onto him, and then goes down to the floor and focuses on Alison in the picture.

Livvie is sitting in the Elixir with a glass of wine. Jack is over helping other customers, and she's just staring out into oblivion. She reaches into her purse and pulls out her cell phone. Jack comes back over, and she gives him a weak smile, and places the phone back in her purse.

We see Alison, sitting on the bed folding some clothes up. While folding a shirt her eye wanders over to the chair, which has the stuffed kangaroo sitting in it. She goes over, picks up the kangaroo, then goes and lies down on the bed-holding the kangaroo tightly.

Caleb walks into the Elixir. Jack looks up and makes eye contact with him. Livvie then turns around to see Caleb, giving a smile. He walks past her, and goes over to a corner to sit.

Shot starts with the inside of the gym, with the lights off. The door opens, and Rafe walks in, turning the lights on. He goes and gets a pair of boxing gloves, and starts taking his frustration out on a punching bag. We see Alison walking down the stairwell, to see Rafe working out. She just watches him, tears coming down her face, then goes back upstairs.

Back at the Elixir Caleb is sitting there staring at Livvie. It's obvious that she's trying to not watch him. Right as Caleb gets up to talk to her, Jack and Livvie leave. He goes and sits back down. Then we see Rafe finishing up his frustration. He starts to leave the gym again, but then walks up the stairs. At the last two lines of the song, we see Rafe knock on the apartment door, it open and he pulls Alison into a hug.
