After my horrifying nap, Hunter decided it'd be a good idea for me to play something on my guitar. I told him that lyrics that I had been coming up with something interesting, so he wanted to stay and listen. I strummed the first couple of chords and began to feel myself dissolving into it. When it was finally time to sing, I took a deep breath to calm myself, and began...

If I should stay
I would only be in your way
But I'll think of you each step of my way
'Cause I will always love you

Bitter-sweet memories scattered all around the floor
Reaching for the phone 'cause I can't fight it anymore
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind
For me it happens all the time

It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now
I said I wouldn't call, but I've lost all control and I need you now

And I don't know how I can do without
I just need you now

I hope life will treat you kind
And that you have all you ever dream of
I wish you joy and happiness

But above all this
I wish you love
So, please, don't cry
'Cause you're all I have, and I'm taking you with me

And I'd rather hurt than feel nothing at all

It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now
(I will always love you)
I said I wouldn't call, but I've lost all control and I need you now
(I will always love you)
And I don't know how I can do without
I just need you now
(I, I will always love you)

Oh, baby I need you now
I will always love you

I took in what I just sang at that moment. And then I had realized something. Was I in love with my best friend? No, I couldn't be. Besides, even if he's been in the hospital for three years now, I think he already had a girlfriend before everything happened and only sees me like a little sister anyway. And all I see him as is like another brother... I think... I couldn't be in love with Wyatt... Could I?

"That was awesome, Ry," Hunter exclaimed, which snapped me out of my thoughts.

"Thanks," I replied breathlessly.

"Who's that for?"

"No one. I just like the two songs and combined them."

"Mhm, sure. By the way, I got news from ma and dad about Wyatt while you were zoned into your music."

"Really!?! What'd they say!?!"

"They said he was moved to the Baptist Rehabilitation Center yesterday and made it safely today."

"Where's that?" The smile on his face was too suspicious. What in the world was going on?

"Sis, Baptist Rehabilitation Center is in Nashville." Nashville? Nashville!?! As in Nashville, Tennessee!?! This was too good to be true...

"Are you kidding me!?! Wyatt is in Nashville!?!"

"Yeah, sis. Wyatt's in Nashville." This was unbelievable. I began to squeal and hug Hunter to death, but started hyperventilating when realization decided to smack me square in the face.
