NOT EDITED...

I pack all the necessary things I'll most likely need, and grab my keys. I don't really know where I'm going, I just know that I'm going to stay away for a little while, just until I know I'm in a better mind then I am right now.

I put all my stuff in my mustang, I decided to leave my phone and any other electronic besides my iPad, so that no one will be able to contact me and I'll be able to get better without having any distractions.

I lock my mustang and go back in my house. I decided to leave at night so that way I can make all the arrangements at my gym right now during the morning and so nothing seems out of place.

I head to my gym after I take a quick shower and change. I do all the usual stuff and a few extra, like putting someone in charge temporarily while I'm gone, and all of that. I also called a gym that's close to the hotel I'll be staying at for the next few weeks and they happily accepted me during the time that I'm there, so job while I'm there is checked off.

I have everything completely organized, all of my employees thinks I'm going away on vacation to visit family or something like that and when everything that needed to be done is done, it's already lunch time which means Alex should be coming soon.

I'm working on a few bills that need to be payed, when my door opens and Alex's scent comes in with the guy himself. I keep my head down still reading, while my heart is pounding in my chest and my hands have gone a bit sweaty.

"Raven." I look up when he says my name. "Have you made up your mind?"

"Alex. And no." I say, my voice barely above a whisper.

His icy eyes look into my own hazel ones, and to not seem like I'm hiding anything I look straight back at his own.

"I'm going to leave on a business trip in a few hours, and I'm going to come back on Friday. Can we eat at a restaurant today, please Raven. I want to be with you just for an hour right now, please." Desperation is on his voice and it's slowly braking me, so I nod my head and grab my purse to leave.

"I've got an early leave today anyway, so I can see you off." I smile sadly at him.

He smiles back at me, "shall we?"

"We shall," I grin at him.

We went to Cici's Pizza, and had a comfortable meal there, we're currently at the airport where his private jet will take him to wherever it is that he's going.

I'm trying not to break down, cause then he'll know that I'm going to do something I'm going to regret, even if it is for me to get my head back on straight.

"Are you going to be okay?" Alex asks for the millionth time.

I smile reassuringly, "I'll be fine, anyway I have Luis. Alex calm down, everything will be just fine, go on your business trip."

He grabs my arm, and pulls me to him, hugging me tight like he never wants to let me go. "I wish you can come, but you have to take care of your gym." He mumbles. Oh if only he knew that I won't be here when he comes back he'll most likely take me with him right now.

My heart breakes a little at that though when some words he told me before comes back to the forefront of my mind.

••Flashback!••

"Why did you leave?" He asks.

"Because I had to, I had to set things straight and stop being afraid. That's why I became a personal trainer, to be able to train other people and be able to train at the same time as them, getting stronger for that reason." I reply honestly.

"Just don't do it again.. I love you, and I nearly died when you left." Alex says, staring intently at my eyes.

••End of Flashback!••

I'm leaving him again, and he might not really see why I had to leave this time, but I hope he will understand when I see him again, when I'm sure my head is back on right again.

"I love you Raven." Alex says, his ice blue eyes staring into my own.

"I love you too, Alex." I whisper back, he gently kisses me, then he pulls away and I miss his warmth when he leaves.

"I'll see you in Friday. I'll call you when I get there, so keep your phone ready."

"Bye Alex, see you soon." I put on a fake smile hoping he doesn't catch it, and wave. Then I turn and walk back towards my mustang, deciding to leave right now.

I broke the promise of never leaving him again, but this time I'm sure I won't get hurt, and I know I'm going to get better and not worst. I just gotta go to these therapy sessions for a few weeks than I can come back, and be with Alex and do all the normal couple-y things people do.

I check into the hotel and walk towards my simple room. I put my small suitcase next to the door and sit down on the bed.

I have a meeting with the therapist in a few minutes, but I just wanted to sit. Sighing I stand up again, and grab my keys. Onto the therapy session.

As I'm riding towards the place where she works at, a song comes on by Kelly Clarkson and I hate it immediately because of the lyrics.

I'm not already gone, it's just a temporary thing, I'll go back home when my head is on straight, and I'll be back with Alex, he won't have moved on and neither would I.

At the end I did bring my phone, but Alex still hasn't called, so I'm guessing he's either busy, still on the plane, tired or simply just forgot. That's ok, at least for right now though.

I arrive at the therapist place, and take a deep breath. Here goes nothing.
