Sadness. Agony. Pain. Loneliness. I sat staring at the darkness in the corner of the street. I had had to get out of the hotel.

B was visiting her dad and she had gone to say hi to the gang. I walked downstairs while she and Angel were hugging. She pulled away from him when she saw me on the stairs staring at them.

I looked in her eyes for only a second. I couldn't stand to see the hatred so I walked down the stairs and bolted. Only she grabbed my arm. I was ready for the punches coming my way but none did. I turned around and saw a flicker of something before the hatred came back.

I looked at Angel. His eyes were sad for me. I twisted out of her hold on me and this time no one stopped me as I ran out of the door and into the coming darkness.

I see shadows playing over the wall and then I feel her. I know she's staring at me and then she sits beside me not saying a word.

We stay that way for I don't know how long just staring into the darkness. I freeze for a second as I feel her hand on my arm again. This time she's not grabbing. She's just barely touching and I breakdown. She puts her arms around me and I feel as her body shakes with the sobs and tears she herself is spilling.

When I pull away from her there's no more darkness around us. A new day is beginning. I close my eyes as I feel a streak of bright light peaking out from under the clouds. I open my eyes and everything seems brighter somehow.

We sit there and though no words have been spoken between between us I feel we finally have the chance to get things right and this time I have a feeling we will.
