Felix's P.O.V

The cold blankets comforted me as I lay flat on my bed. The moonlight from the window beside me caresses my cheeks; it's the only thing that lights up the room. Darkness creeps around every corner. Yet all I do is lay here and stare at the bright and lovely moon. The twinkling stars making the sky more unique. I don't dare to think about Jack again.

I got up and rested on my knees, gazing out the window in front of me. Stars forming in different locations and making different alignments. I feel a small smirk on my face. I feel the stars glisten in my eyes. A sigh of content escapes my lips. But something perks my interest. Something flies by past my window. Curiosity striking me, I open my window and stretch my head out, looking in the direction of the... the thing. I use my hands to hold myself up as I lean out the window, squinting at the flying object. It twirls and swoops in the wind. I squint my eyes, it's dark but I can still make it out.
I gasp, "That's Jack's hat!"
I understand I don't need to go after it necessarily. It isn't mine and I don't really care about Jack anymore but, I'm a decent guy; I'm going to go get it. Worried that it's already a good distance away, I jump backwards and slam my window shut. I run down the stairs and slide when I hit my door. I clumsily put on my jacket, too rushed to zip it up. I run out the door, but am stopped in my tracks when I reach my car. Shit, I'm in my housecoat and slippers...! Fuck it. I don't want his hat getting lost. I open the car door and quickly get inside. I loudly slam the door shut and turn the car on. I back out of the driveway and step on the gas. I see the hat fly throughout the sky as I chase after it.

Jack's P.O.V

I sigh as I take a slow sip of coffee. The darkness that surrounds me is now a friend, considering I'm so used to it. I place my cold coffee down and grumble. My green hair falls in front of my face. Why the hell did I do this, I thinks as I roughly move it out of my point of view. I plant my head on the cold back door, staring out the glass window. Dark and disappointing, as I expected. I look down at my feet. Just socks and baggy old jeans. My plain white tshirt is long, and stretches over my torso. I close my eyes. Thoughts stab my emotions in all directions. I feel tears at the edge of my eyes. I started getting angry at myself.
"Stop. Fucking. CRYING." I bullied myself.
I slammed my fist against the door, ignoring the pain. Tears exited my eyes and tickled my cheeks as they traveled down them. I kept punching the door in rage.
"You fucking wimp! He's just a guy who rejected you! YA DON'T HAVE TO SHUT YOURSELF OUT JUST BECAUSE OF A LOST LOVE. YA DON'T HAVE TO FUCKING MOPE AROUND YA LITTLE BITCH. YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY... Absolutely... p-pathetic."
I collapsed onto the floor, my fist aching and hot tears making my eyes puffy and red. I lay against my cold tiled floor. I weep loudly at the pitiful and pathetic person I have been. I open my eyes are stare up at the world outside my window; still lying on the floor.

I blink a couple times as something strikes me. I stand up slowly and open the back door, peeking my head out and looking to my right. I notice something floating throughout the sky. The stars shine brightly behind it.
"Hey..." I whisper, "That's my hat.."
I back up and shut the door. I calmly walk over to the front door and start dressing myself up to go outside. I'll just drive over and get it, not like I'll need it. I step out of my house and the cold air hits me like a rock. I see some guy speeding down the street. I shrug it off and get in the car. I back out and start to drive after my hat that still is blown by the wind.

I pull into the north entrance of the park. My hat flies towards the center of the park. I get out of my car and slam the door shut. I start running after it. The wind blows powerfully behind me. I see it twirl in the air, almost as if it's leading me somewhere. I stop in my tracks. Do I really need this silly old hat? It's absolutely pointless. It's just a dumb hat. I turn my heel and start walking back to the car. The wind has stopped and the hat has probably collapsed onto the soft white snow now, somewhere. I sigh heavily and continue walking to the car.

Felix's P.O.V

I pull into the south entrance of the park. I rush out of the car and chase after where I see it. The wind is thankfully blowing it in my direction. The snow crackles beneath my feet as I run. The cold getting on my nerves, but it's worth it. I get closer and closer to the hat and, it falls. The wind stops and it lands around thirty feet in front of me. I start walking towards it, and then I pause. What if Jack is coming to get it too? Like this hat is leading us together like destiny... I cannot help the huge smile I get at the thought. I run after the hat and stop to pick it up. I look around me, nobody. Just very few people walking their dogs. No sign of a single green haired man rushing towards me. No sign of any men by themselves actually. My heart sinks to my stomach and my smile drops to a frown. I drop the hat. He doesn't need it anyways. I start making my way back to my car, ready to go home.

I start driving.

Sorry Jack. I'm not taking any chances.
