Time for a new chapter. It's been too long, m'dears. But PLEASE REVIEW! Or I won't continue.
Disclaimer: The lyrics for "The Last Kiss" or "Weathered Tome" (I'm a bit confused; I think my Black SailsCD has a messup)by AFI were written by Davey Havok and all of his wonderful bandmates. -Cough cough- Hunter, Adam, and Jade -cough cough-.
Paige's POV
"Ellie, are you okay? Seriously, you need to tell me. I'm so fucking scared for you, babe; So scared. Please tell me what you're thinking."
"Please don't ask me what I'm thinking. Trust me, you don't want to know," she whispered, biting into one of her bright pink nails. Ellie's body shook, and she looked like she might pass out.
"Hon, why won't you open up to me? I don't know what the hell I'm supposed to know about you! You're not letting me in, Elle," I cried.
"Please don't ask me to open up. Trust me."
"Why not?" I yelled.
"Because I can't, Paige!" Ellie cried. She rested her head in her hands, curling her legs around up under her body so she was sitting on her feet. "Could you please just..." Her voice was shaking. Here I was, watching my Dollface fall apart.
"Babe, do you want me to leave?" I asked quietly.
"No... Just... I don't know. I have to pee," Ellie said as she stood up, sniffling, and walked into her bathroom. She slammed the door just as the sobs errupted from her throat.
My lower lip trembled as I listened to Ellie cry in the next room. I hated that I put her through so much pain. "Elle?" I called, reaching for my cabdriver's hat.
"Yeah?" Ellie replied in a muffled tone.
"I think I'm gonna head home, okay, babe?"
"Yeah."
"I love you. See you tomorrow."
"Mmm."
Ellie's POV
I sat on the bathroom floor with my head in my hands, and I was crying. I'd been crying non-stop since Paige had left, and I was all alone. I slammed the floor with my fists as tears cascaded down my cheeks. I was so stupid.
"Sean?" I whispered into my cell phone as I sat slumped against the bathroom door.
"Ellie! Are you okay?" he cried.
"No. Could you please come over? I need you, Seany," I cried, wiping my eyes.
"Okay, baby. I'll be there in a few minutes," he replied.
"Thank you, Sean."
Click.
When Sean opened the door and ran up the stairs, all I could do was cry. "Sean!" I yelled, moving out of the way of the door.
"Ellie, what's wrong?" he asked, sitting down next to me.
I scooted next to him and he enveloped me. "I'm so sorry..."
"Honey -"
"I hate myself for what I did to you."
"Honey -"
"I'm so sorry," I cried, bursting into a new round of tears.
Sean held me - frail, little, broken me - in his arms until I fell asleep. He then put me in bed, kissed my forehead, and slid in next to me. "I love you, Ellie, and I will stay by your side as long as you need me," he whispered, wrapping his arms around me again.
Aw, a cute Sean/Ellie moment. Next chapter, look for more Sean/Ellie moments and a serious talk between Ellie and somebody. I dunnowho yet, but please suggest someone. Much love,
Zoe
