When i woke up the next afternoon, around 2-3, i felt amazing. I slept in late for the first time in a while and i could feel my attitude radiating. I sat up slowly, throwing my huge comforter off of me as i set my feet on the ground, pushing my hands above my head as my back made that satisfying Crack. I relaxed and looked around my room and noticed my balcony door wasn't open today, Bina must've fixed it. I could hear her downstairs on the phone. She was yelling but i couldn't make out anything she was saying, so i decided to investigate.

I stood up, creeping towards my door. As i slowly opened it, it made a small creak and i heard her pause. I stayed completely still, freezing like a statue. After a few seconds of unsure silence she finally continued her conversation. I sighed in relief, continuing my journey. I crept down the stairs, stopping at the bottom just before the kitchen door.

"She doesn't understand Rosemary-" Rosemary? I hadn't heard from my grandmother since before the move.

"After the accident we CANNOT take any risks whatsoever. IF anyone found out what happened she could be sent away forever" I felt my whole body relax as i breathed silently. My neck starting to sweat and my legs felt restless. SHe knew how late i stayed out. I wasn't surprised that she knew, i was surprised that she would bring up what happened in Arizona.

I was instantly pulled from my thoughts as she walked around the corner, almost running into me. I didn't even notice she had hung up the phone. We locked eyes and i knew my face said it all. I wasn't hurt, i wasn't sad, i was beyond pissed. And she could tell because she couldn't get a sentence out, her mouth just hung open like a cave, waiting for a spider to crawl in.

"Wisty listen I-"

"Don't" I cut her off instantly, stepping from the bottom step so that my face was only inches from hers. "You know what? I'm tired of you always bringing up arizona for everything i do. I fucked up back there okay? And i fucked up bad, i know that. But i am fucking grown, i will be 23 soon and i'm tired of you believing that you can tell me what to do every fucking day because you dragged me away from my problems." I spat out bitterly. My fists were bald and my teeth were clenched so hard i thought they would break. I could feel my body heating up, from my feet to my face.

"I saved you" SHe whispered, her voice quivering.

"Saved me?" i let out an almost demented laugh.I walked past her, hitting her with my shoulder as i did, opening the door. "The only person you were trying to save was yourself" I commented, slamming the door behind me as i walked quickly away from the house.

I knew she wouldn't follow me, i just knew. But i quickly realized storming out wasn't the best idea because i was still clad in my old clothes from last night. I huffed and put my hand over my eyes, i didn't need this right now. I made my way around the house, avoiding windows and the side doors . I reached the back and started my climb up to my balcony. I made it, barely, with a few scrapes on my legs. I climbed over the railing and opened the door, quickly scurrying to shut and lock my bedroom door. I had to hurry before she realized i was still here so i rummaged through my drawers, finding a plain baby pink tshirt, shorts, and a black belt. I quickly pulled on my beat up converse and braided my hair loosely. I grabbed my wallet and stuffed it into my back pocket before running to the bathroom and brushing my teeth.

When i finished, right as i was leaving my room, i heard the handle to my door jiggle and Sabrina's voice call my name. I shut the balcony doors and threw my leg over the edge again, climbing down the side. About halfway down i must've misstepped because i felt my whole body fall, my front-side scraping against the stone wall as i hit the soft glass below me.

The fall knocked my breathe out, and as i leaned up to try and breathe i noticed i now had cuts all over my arm and legs, the arent bad but they were bleeding a little. That's when i reached up and touched my face, feeling the small cut that had formed right above my eyebrow. "Fuck" i mumbled, finally catching my breath and pulling myself up. I didn't have time to sit there and cry about it so i jogged down the road as fast as i could, limping slightly.

It was now around four o'clock which meant the boys probably weren't anywhere in sight. When i reached the entrance to the boardwalk i slowed down and dragged myself through the gates. I stumbled around until i saw the pizza shop from before, with Dwayne. I went inside and quickly ordered a table , and i guess the woman behind the register noticed i was in a hurry and sat me down as fast as she could. WHen i was finally seated in a booth, i ordered a coke and a small sausage pizza, with mushrooms and black olives.

I could finally relax and catch my breath, but i quickly noted how alone i was here. I didn't have any female friends, and the only friends i did have only came out at night (reference to another Lost Boys fanfic ;) "We only come out at night" go read it).

I was a complete loser here. And it didn't help that this was the one time jules didn't want to show up to talk with me. So i sat there. The blood on my legs and face had dried by now, leaving dark, crusted blood in its place. The lady brought my pizza and set it on a rack in front of me. I thanked her and grabbed a slice, laying it down on my plate. I didn't realize how hungry i was until this moment.

I scarfed down atleast four slices and two cokes before i was full. But i wasn't going to go home yet, and it was only 6' o'clock, i noted the clock on the wall. I had already sat here for two hours and i probably looked stupid but where was i supposed to go? I didn't want to walk around the boardwalk at this time because it was filled with kids and old people. I couldn't go back home to sabrina, not after what i said to her. And the boys cave was a good hour-and-a half walk from here, especially with my legs. But it seemed like the best option at this moment so, as a stupid girl does, that's exactly what i did.

I got up and left a $20 laying on the table. By this point my leg felt better and i walked out of the pizza parlor and down the boardwalk to the sand. I started my way and walked through the sand, trying to remember the way the boys had taken me. After a good amount of time my legs became tired and started dragging my feet through the now stiff-feeling sand. I recognized the area so i kept walking and walking.

I walked until it turned dark and cold and i instantly regretted wearing shorts as the ocean breeze blew past me and through my hair, goosebumps rippling across my skin. I finally made it to the forest-like path and pushed myself to keep going, if i got lost in the woods i would be completely screwed.

After what seemed like hours, the familiar cliff and lighthouse came into my view and just the thought of the couch inside the cave made my body ten times more exhausted. I carried myself down the stairs and through the threshold of the cave, the boys nowhere in sight. I shrugged and threw myself onto the couch in the corner, waiting for them to show up. After a few minutes i could hear their laughs from a small opening and they appeared through it, laughing and talking loudly. Once paul noticed me he light up like a child on christmas-

"Wistyyy!!" He yelled jogging over and throwing himself onto the couch beside me. "What are you doing h- Holy shit!" He looked down at my now bruised and bloody legs and then examined my face with his hand. Within an instant all four boys were around me. "What the hell happened to you kid?" David asked my, his gravelly voice filled with little concern, he was just curious. I pulled my face away from paul and accidentally bumped into dwayne as i tried to stand, falling back onto the couch. I didn't know he was so close to me.

"I didn't think it looked THAT bad" i muttered tot hem. "I just fell-"

"Off of what?" Marko instantly questioned, his goofy smile plastered across his face like it was his only emotion. "My balcony.." i trailed off. Before they had the chance to question me any further i quickly added - "I had a fight with my aunt so i went out of my balcony and fell on the way down". I stood up again, avoiding dwayne, and shrugged "No biggie" I put on a big smile to try and sell it. In all honesty? The fight with Sabrina had upset me a lot and i just wanted to hang out with the guys and feel better.

I guess Paul noticed i was uncomfortable because he quickly changed the subject and offered up the idea that we all go to the boardwalk tonight and see the concert they were holding on the beach. The boys all agreed, forgetting the questions they all had for me. Before i could follow them out dwayne's voice boomed from behind me- "You guys go ahead and go eat" i swear i saw something glimmer in Davis eyes, "I'm going to patch her up and we will meet you all there". He finished, nodding towards the boys. They all just smiled and whooped-and-hollered all the way out of the cave.

After they had cleared from our view, Dwayne gently grabbed my arm, pulling me to the couch. "Here" he sat me down and reached under the couch, pulling out a small, dusty first aid kit. It looked like it hadn't been used in decades. He looked me in my eyes and gave me a small smile before continuing- "Lets get you cleaned up"
