*Smile* So, this is it, kids. My last chapter. :) I want to thank everyone who's read/reviewed! Or added me to their alert/favorite story/favorite auther lists! That all means so much to me! I love it.

I know that uploading my chapters only 15 or so hours apart keeps me from getting the reviews and lots of hits that I want, but I also know that it pleases the reader. I also hate having to wait weeks for a new chapter. That's why I prewrite my stories before I post them.

Chapter 11: 4 Months of Chances

Blink's view

I spotted Alleyway sitting in front of the warm fire with a couple of the boys.

She glanced at me suddenly. I expected her to ignore me, but she excused herself form the group of boys and walked towards me.

"Why?" She asked. "Why didn't you come back for me sooner?"

"I was afraid you didn't want to see me." I said.

"I did want to see you," Back-Alley confirmed.

I took her hand. She let me.

"I was afraid that if I had to leave you again, I wouldn't be able to." I admitted.

"I'm back now." She said. "What are you gonna do about all those fear that kept you from coming to get me?"

I smiled and led her up the stairs and onto the roof. It was cold.

"Did I say I was sorry?" I asked. She shook her head. "I'm sorry," I said.

"It's fine," she said, but I knew it wasn't.

I noticed she wasn't wearing a jacket or any warm clothes.

She stared in the direction of Brooklyn. "The bridge is great in winter." She said, just making small talk.

I nodded. She walked away, towards the door that led back into the building.

"Wait!" I called to her.

She turned around. "Yes?"

"I'm sorry." I said again, begging for her to forgive me.

"You already said that." She said.

"I know."

"So?" She said, shrugging. "What do you want to do about it?"

I couldn't help but to see that her eyes were dead. I would have done anything to bring life back to those blue eyes. I walked over to her and took her hands. She didn't refuse, but continued to glance at me impatiently. I let her hands go and placed my hands on her back, pulling her close. She wriggled out of my grip.

I tried again. Placing a hand on her lower back, I pulled her close and kissed her on the mouth. She pulled apart and swallowed hard. I noticed her eyes seemed to shine a little brighter.

She shook her head slowly. "I don't want do this," she said slowly. "I don't want you to leave me again."

"I won't." I said, dead serious.

"I don't want to take the risk in trusting you." She said, her face sullen.

"Give me a chance." I said.

"I gave you four months of them!" She exclaimed.

"Then we have a lot of time to make up for." I said, smiling.

She gave in. She smiled back.

I placed a hand on her lower back again and kissed her deeply. She kissed back this time.

I had four months of time to make up for. And I wasn't leaving her side until they were made up for.

Alley's View

I didn't really want to give into Blink's ways; I didn't think he deserved that type of satisfaction. But I found myself falling into his embrace and comfort.

He had done me wrong, but so had plenty of other boys.

"Then we have a lot of time to make up for," he told me playfully.

Against my better judgment, I smiled. I gave in.

He kissed me deeply and I tried to focus on not letting go of my judgment.

"Do you trust me," he whispered into my ear softly.

I nodded. "More than I should."

Blink and I were good together. It was time to embrace that.

Well, that's it, guys. I want to thank you guys again for reading.

I have a new story written about David and Bumlet's sister. So, review and let me know if you're interested. This one's short, only 7 chapter. But, I'm really excited for you guys to read it.

Also, I know this is kinda a cliff ending. But keeping in mind I had to change it a bit so I could lower the rating. BTW, I'm writing a sequel for this story. And it's come along pretty well. KEEP YOUR EYES OUT FOR IT!

Please review on this last chapter!

-Stay beautiful-
