The hospital wing

I am in the hospital wing, again. I swear I do everything that would land someone in the hospital. I need to change my life style. I should only wear black, eat only hamburgers, and spend my time studying. There, that is a non-injury life style. Only, I already wear black, and studying DOES get boring after a while...

Two minutes later

Dan just sent me a note. This is what it says:

Lily—

I know I haven't sent you a note in FOREVER. But, as you are my girlfriend, I really don't need to...anyway, I just heard this song, and I am writing it here, because I am really board.

I talk to you every now and then

I never felt so alone again

I stop to think at a wishing well

My thoughts send me on a carousel

Here I am standing on my own

Not a motion from the telephone

I know not a reason why

Solitudes a reason to die

Just you wait and see

As school life is a

It is a woken dream

Aren't you feeling alone?

I guess it's just another

I guess it's just another

I guess it's just another night alone

Now as I walk down the street

I need a job just to sleep in sheets

Buying food once in a while

But not enough to purchase a smile

A tank of gas is a treasure to me

I know that nothing is free

I talk to you every now and then

Well, I guess this is growing up

I heard that song, and I thought of you. I have no idea, but I did. And Lily, I have something really important to tell you. I don't want to, but I have to. It's for the best of both of us. Lily, we need to break up. It's really for the best, because I have no idea where life is going to take me, and I know that you are lost, and I think that I need to give you space, because—well, you need to find out who you are. And I need to do that too.

So, all I am asking you to do is give me space, and I will give you yours, and we can try to work things out and see what we have between us.

End Quotes: I know you all want to chase after me with pitchforks, and stab me in the toes. I had enough stuff coming from one of my critics, she is still angry with me about this one.

Questions and Answers:

Question: Where do you come up with this?

Answer: Well, when IM-ing people, I might ask them, name things that bug you. Or other times, I'll just think up stupid things. I really have no idea.

Question: ROFL! But, um, Zaire is actually the former name of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, a land-locked country in central Africa. Did you mean Madagascar? (Okay, so it really wasn't a question)

Answer: Um, I asked a friend for the name of an African country, and that's what she gave me. I asked her if it was an island, and she didn't know, and I am horrible with maps, so, I'm sorry. And what Dumbledore said about wearing the flowers...I made that up. Unless they really do that....

Question: I want to join the I HATE HILLARY DUFF CLUB!

Answer: Once again, check my bio with instructions on how.

Okay...so. Now you can all review and tell me how much you hate me for the short chapter and what happened in it.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

Okay, I am about to cry because now this site hates me too. Anyway, updates might take a while; I have TONS of stuff going on, and no will to write.
