She steps out into the night air with a breaking sob as the cool air slaps her in the face making her gasp.
She stumbles down the steps and down the driveway her heels tapping on the concrete.
He opens the door swiftly the party noise behind him as he scans the yard frantically for her dispersing. And when he sees her...
Marcus: Abby!
She ignores him.
Marcus: Abby would you please just wait a second!
She continues as he gains on her.
Marcus: Abby please!
His voice is closer as she steps off onto the street walking as fast as she can to her car in her heels.
Marcus: please listen a second!
He grabs her shoulder a d she swings around.
Abby: Why? Marcus? Why should I?
She cries, her face stained with tears as new ones appear.
Marcus: Abby please?
He says it pleading, his eyes soft.
Abby: Why do you can hurt me again?
Marcus: Hurt you? Abby I-
Abby: As if you don't know, as if you don't remember!
Marcus is stunned and confused.
Marcus: What?
Abby exhales forcefully and rolls her eyes.
Abby: Wow, not only do you act like you do that remember but you mock me.
Abby turns on her heel and starts walking away.
Marcus: Abby please, tell me what I did!
Abby turns again quickly.
Abby: You said forever, you lied!
She cries.
He furrows his brow.
Abby: You never tried to save us!
She says it gesturing between them.
Marcus: I fought for you, remember that?
She swallows and shakes her head.
Abby: I can't do this, I can't wait forever for you to make up your mind.
Marcus: Make up my mind about what? Jake was the one you chose, he was the one you fought for! I did all I could but you could never see!
He says it gesturing to himself.
Abby: *tear falls down her face* You really don't remember?
He shakes his head.
Marcus: No, Abs. I don't. I'm confused at what your talking about!
Abby: Jake said you-you did it on purpose.
Marcus: Did what?
He yells this confused.
Marcus: Would you tell me because I'm confused.
Abby sniffs and crosses her arms on her chest wiping away a tear.
Abby: Jake said you left because you hated me.
She says it her voice quivering angrily.
Marcus: What no!
He yells.
Marcus: No! I didn't that's far from the truth!
Abby: Then why did you leave!?
She tells her temper rising again.
Abby: Why did you lea-
He cuts her off.
Marcus: Because I fell in love with you damnit!
Her posture lowers to calm and her eyes soften at this new information.
Marcus: I fell in love with you and you wanted Jake.
She steps in closer to him, mere inches from his chest.
She sniffs as a tear falls from his face and reaches up and crattles his face wiping the tear from his cheek.
Marcus: I was not the family you wanted, you wanted a man with a young heart and I was growing up to fast.
She chuckles.
Abby: Marcus you were all the family and youth that I could have ever wanted. I still do.
At that last few words his eyes shoot up to hers.
Abby: I fell for you way before you left but I didn't want to get in the way of anything you had going with Callie.
Marcus: That's why I left, I didn't want to come between you and Jake.
Abby: *chuckles* You stupid man, you were what I wanted. Are what I want.
His eyes meet her again.
Marcus: I never stopped loving you.
Abby: *smiles* show me
