(JACKSON'S P.O.V:)
I get up to my feet.
It is still dark outside, but the sun has started rising.
God, I am such an idiot.
It has been nearly 6 hours since Dani ran off. I need to find her.
Finding her was the only reason that I stayed behind.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(DANI'S P.O.V:)
I can't believe myself.
I want to look for him, but after that, I know he won't want to see me ever again. All Jackson was trying to do was help me, but me being the stupid b*tch I am, I rejected him.
And the way I rejected him made everything a thousand times worse.

Why am I so full of myself? All I ever do is hurt people.
I wish I was dead. Then I'd never be able to hurt anyone, especially Jackson, ever again.
Yes, I'd like that. Even though I know I am going to hell.

So instead, I curl up into a ball on the concrete floor and sob.
Eventually, I fall asleep.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
(JACKSON'S P.O.V:)
I have been searching for her for hours.
I know it's no use, she would of run off by now.
I haven't travelled very far, though. I have kept within 2km of my home base, so when if I never find her, I can wallow in my misery in some comfort.
I hope I find her. I need her. I don't want to go the rest of my life alone.
Because although it's only been one year since I last saw a human (not including Dani), that one year was plenty.

That's also why I need to find Dani.
Because how the hell has she been alone for 3 years? And why is she so convinced that life has completely died out?

Dani, wherever you are......
I need you.
