RYLEE'S P.O.V.
– Are you carrying her or do you want me to? – I heard someone saying.
Was I dreaming? It felt like it, but the voices...they were so familiar...
– I'll carry her to the car, but you're taking her home – hmm...it was a man for sure.
I wanted to open my eyes, but my eye lids were so heavy...
– If that has any sense... – the other man replied.
I felt two hands that lifted me from where I was. The embrace felt so comfortable, and that scent...I totally had to be dreaming in that moment.
I felt the vibration on the chest of the person carrying me. It somehow cooed me back to sleep, but I was able to open my eyes lazily just to see Gerard looking down at me. He smiled softly.
– Go back to sleep – he murmured.
I closed my eyes and rested my head comfortably against his chest.

The next thing I knew was the next morning when I opened my eyes and stirred just to realize I was in my bed.
I sat down frowning but then remembered that scene in my mind.
<<Maybe it wasn't a dream>> I thought, and couldn't help but smiling at that thought.
Did that meant Gerard and I were okay?
But my smile was soon replaced with a frown again.
If Gerard and I were okay, why wasn't he with me?
I sighed as I uncovered my legs and stood up. While going downstairs I could smell pancakes.
A little spot of hope appeared in my mind as I practically ran downstairs and into the kitchen.
– Ge...? Oh, hi Jamia – I sighed while my hope was trampled and sat down on a chair.
Jamia looked at me and smiled kindly but you could see the pity in her eyes. I hated when people did that.
– Do you want some pancakes? – she asked breaking the silence that had been established between us.
– Sure – I nodded and when she gave me the plate. I stood up and went to the living room.
She must had felt that I wanted to be alone, because she didn't follow me.
I didn't know if she thought I couldn't hear her or what, but she had a not-so-pleasant conversation with someone, I guessed Frank, at the phone about me, so as soon as she ended, I stood up, taking the plate with me, and went to the kitchen.
– Jamia, go to your house – I said as I left the plate in the sink.
– What? Why? – She asked surprised.
I turned around and I must had had a terrible expression, because she just nodded and left after taking her jacket.
That earned me a call from Frankie asking what was wrong, but for once I convinced him to stay at his house and not to come to mine.
I really wanted to be alone.
I ended up disconnecting the phone and turning off my mobile phone; then just lay on the couch and watched TV for the rest of the day.

The sound of keys made me stood up frowning and went to the doorway.
– I thought I said I wanted to be alone – I groaned as the door was opened.
Gerard stood there, looking at me blankly. My eyes wide open.
– I just came to leave some things, but I can go if you really want to be alone – he said as he left the keys on their usual spot.
– N-no! I mean...it's your house too, you don't have to go – I scratched my head uncomfortable.
He just nodded and went into the kitchen.
I sighed and covered my face with my hands for a moment, forcing myself not to scream.
<< Stupid stupid stupid >> I repeated to myself.
– Are you hungry?... Are you okay? – Gerard asked as he popped his head out of the kitchen and stared at me.
I uncovered my face and nodded.
– Yeah, I'm okay, and...no, I'm not hungry – I denied the last part.
I haven't been eating much lately. If I was honest, breakfast was the last thing I ate that day.
– Have you have lunch? – he narrowed his eyes.
I denied with my head.
– Then you have to eat something – he sighed, returned to the kitchen and starting to make noise with something.
I frowned and walked in the kitchen.
– I'm not hungry – I protested.
He looked at me with a "don't argue with me" expression and continued what he was doing.

And I did end up eating spaghetti. I swore Gerard loved spaghetti.
– Can I ask you something? – I looked up from my plate.
He nodded as he swallowed.
– Are we back together...? – I bit my bottom lip hoping for some good news.
Gerard raised his eyes and stared into mine.
– Tomorrow I have a date with a girl I met a few days ago – He stood up and left his plate in the sink.
I bit so hard I tasted a little bit of blood. Fuck.
Fuck everything.
