Before I realized what happened Hope had run away. I just sat there, I don't know why…I felt something in my chest…I hadn't ever felt it before…

Later that night I lay awake in my bed while Ulrick slept. I wanted to be with Hope so badly. I couldn't sleep. I snuck out of the dorm and walked down to Hope's house. It was raining that night. When I got to Hope's house the first thing I did was look for her window. I heard music from one end of the house. It must have been Hope's room.

 

"No I can't dream…

But you know I used too…

Now I don't sing…

But I think I ought to…"

Hope was crying again. It was her that was singing. I felt tears run down my face as I saw her weep. I wanted to comfort her, but I knew I couldn't. I walked back to the dorm. The rain felt good on my face. Some how, the cold wind comforted me.

"Where've you been?" Ulrick asked as I walked through the door.

"I couldn't sleep so I went for a walk."

"Is this about that girl that saw the super computer?"

I didn't answer him at first.

"Yea." I finally said.

I told Ulrick everything that happened between me and Hope since that day at the fair.

"Man dude…I don't know what to tell you…"

That's when I got an idea. A crazy idea, but it just might work…

A/n: sorry it took me do long to update.
