You've Changed.. (George Shelley Fanfic)

Chapter 14- Alone.

I had been walking for just over an hour and a half now.
I was cold. And I was soaking.
It had started raining when I reached the end of the forest. And still hadn't stopped.

I felt like just giving up on everything. And lets face it, I have no idea where I'm going. I could be halfway across the country by now for all I know.
I wanted to collapse to the ground in tears and hope that somehow I would end up back at home safe in my bed.
I felt humiliated and stupid.

I stopped and stood still as I looked around...
I don't recognise anything...
This certainly wasn't George's town either. Or mine.
Tears streamed down my cold cheeks. My eyes wet & blurry with tiredness.
My clothed stuck to me as the rain kept fell hard.
I wanted to go home.

The streets were empty and there was nobody around.
A street light towered over me that flickered as it shone down over the road.
The rain fell harder and was now visible through the lights beam.
I leaned up against its pole and broke down in tears.
"help me.." I whispered quietly.. "somebody"
I glanced up at the street light as if it was the only thing I had as company.
"I just wanna go home" I say sobbing desperately..
I pulled my hood over my head and folded my arms for warmth.
I didn't know what to do..
Or where to go..

I looked up again at the street light and followed its beam as it shone across the road.
The light faded as it stopped on a 6 concrete steps against a big brown wooden door that looked like it hadn't been used in months.
I glanced up & down the empty road and strolled across it...
As I got to the steps, I stopped.
I sat down on the hard wet steps and burst into tears.
I pulled my knees into my chest and held them close to my body as I wrapped my arms around them for warmth.
I cried into the sleeve of my jacket. Feeling weak with fear & sadness.
I felt so stupid! To think that I could be back at George's house right now warm..safe.

-
Hours had passed.
My eyes felt tired.
My body felt cold.
I felt lost.

As my eyes started to close. I heard a voice at the back of my mind.
Shouting my name desperately. Georges voice.
Calling me.
..calling me?
I gasped and sat upwards as my heart raced.
I saw a boy standing underneath the light on the other side of the road.
"George?.." I whispered wearily.
My hands gripped onto the railing as I hauled myself to stand up and slowly walk down the steps.
The boy glanced over quickly as he saw me.
"(yourname)!" he said running over.
It was George.

I smiled and burst into tears with relief as we both clenched onto each other.
I buried my head in his chest as he rocked me slowly.
"Don't ever do that again!! Do you hear me?!" he said furiously as he held me tight.
I was silent.
"I thought I lost you.." he whispered sadly
George's arms were tight around me and I felt safe again.
His chin was resting on my head.
He gave my forehead a reassuring soft kiss and I couldn't help but smile.
I realised how wrong I was to walk away like that.
I closed my eyes.
"I just wanna go home.." I say quietly
George nodded "..I know"
I sat up and looked at him "George.."
"yeah?"
"..where are we"
