The November air blew my hair back.

I strapped the armband around my arms and put my iPod in it then inserted the earphone in my ear and stretched. The last time I check the time it was 8 o'clock.

I couldn't focus on any emotion to feel. The last two nights were a rollercoaster of emotions.

One thing was clear, with this run, I was suplimating, I didn't wanna deal with the issues in my life. For the longest time I've been a fan of ignoring problems until they disappeared.

That's why last night I left with Harry and this morning I came back after knowing that Sage was gone to school. I left him my car keys.

Just thinking about him made me angry, hurt and sad all at the same time. He attempted suicide. I tried to put myself in his shoes, I truly did but I came up with nothing that would make him want to die.

He has me, his friends and Wren. I don't get why he'd throw all that away and choose to leave me alone. There was no valid reason.

He wasn't that kind of person. He's rational and safe and too much of a good boy for all that.

A somewhat decent reason was that it was about a girl and the only girl that made him irrational lived about 10 houses from mine. Her name was Alora.

My heart overflowed with hate just thinking about her.

I realized I was getting emotional again. I mentally shook my head and focused on running.

Yeah running, that's what I needed. I haven't jogged in a very long time. I got to a point where I neglected my exercise.

My trainer hit the concrete as I settled on a pace. Left right, left right. Drake's song blared in my ears as I concentrate on my pace and not falling.

I crossed the road and took a left running at a constant pace. My mind clear as instinct took over my body.

I halted freezing realising I was in front of a familiar house. I frowned lookingg around. I was sure that I was running to the opposite direction of Alora's house.

I was panting mainly because I was running fast only a moment ago but I was also panting with shock and anxiety.

Old happy memories flooded my memory and they all played like a flash back. A cracked half a smile thinking about all the time we spent together with Alora during senior year, partying, drinking then me giving her a crash course thirty minutes before a test.

That was before I found out about all her betrayal. My face fell when I realised I actually miss her.

I curled my lips and turned around ready to run back to my house. I was already an emotional wreck I didn't need this too but a pink sport car stopped on the curb next to me.

I recognised the car, it was Linkin's. His window rolled down and he poked his head out. I took out my earphones out of my ear.

"Hey! What are you doing here?" He greeted smiling.

"Just a little joy before class." I dangled the earphones in front of him.

"Cool, cool." He said with an awkward smile.
