"I can't believe you Edward!" I screamed and exited to my dorm as soon as the words had left my mouth.

I lay on my bed, motionless; Lidia, my room mate, looking up from her book every so often to check I wasn't dead. I didn't cry, I don't like crying. I grabbed my note pad and started scribbling- everything, anything. I scraped the pencil along the pad paper carving words. Hated, stupid, lame. To list a few. I couldn't believe what had happened, what he'd said. "I don't think we can work"... Ughh

I bolted up like I was under some spell and ran. I just ran so far into the corridors that I made my way through the base, then the school , into the street. But I didn't stop, I kept going. Running like a startled deer, but I wasn't startled I was angry and I felt empty and alone.

A ran, and ran, through the village past my most recent high school, then over the gate and into the woods. It was dark now and I kept seeing ghosts of the boy I'd loved. I sprinted longer and harder until I found a field of daisies where I collapsed motionless on the floor.

"I'm done running, for now"
