Jay couldn't do it. It was too much, too much...
Perhaps her thoughts had finally gotten to her, or perhaps the gemstone had found a crack in her mental barrier and slipped through, but Jay's whatever it was had allowed Jay's hope to slip away, and at the moment, she wanted nothing but to be free of the thoughts that weighed her down, broke her heart over and over again.
I'm sorry, Stevie, I let you down. Jay curled herself into a ball and mentally braced herself as best she could. Gemstone?
Yes? It was almost instant. Jay knew that the gemstone had been waiting, and she didn't want to admit defeat, but it was all too much for her. She had lost her battle.
I... Jay sent another silent apology to Stevie. I'll take your offer, if you make it stop. Please...
Oh?
Suddenly, it all stopped. Jay didn't know she could be so glad to have silence.
That wasn't too hard, was it?
I suppose not... Was that all? Jay didn't feel that different, but she wasn't sure. She looked up to see Kate looking at her with a sad expression. Jay looked away, not wanting to face her disappointment. She had to give up, she was going to drive herself crazy if she didn't.
Still, she couldn't help but wonder what Stevie's reaction would be. Would she be disappointed? Maybe. Would she be sad? Probably. Jay hoped she wouldn't blame herself.
I had to. Jay thought firmly. It was going to happen anyway, one way or another. Maybe I should've agreed earlier. I think I forgot what a clear head actually felt like.
Either way, the gemstone had her now. There was nothing Jay could do about it.
