Chapter 44 - the end

3 months later

Mel's p.o.v.

"Hi...yeah, hi! I don't really know how to start, maybe a little introduction would work?"

"Yeah, an introduction would do..."

"Hi, I already said that, uhg..."

"So, I'm Melissa but all my friends call me Mel. Anything else you need to know?"

"Tell me about yourself Mel. Why have you come to me?" She asked from he seat on the other end of the couch.

"I don't really know, my friend made this appointment." I told her, it was the truth, almost.

"But she had a good reason to, no?" She asked.

"Maybe..."

"Tell me about your life." DR. Geiselhaft said, keeping her notebook with her. So I did what she asked. I told her about my life, my friends, my family, my...father and even about Chris.

I never mentioned his real name, to her he was known as 'Bob'. Not an original name, I know but give me some credit. I was surprised by the fact I opened up so quickly to her, it's not normal. But maybe it's because of that aura she has, you know the aura that all psychologists have.

This was it, my new life, the new me. I moved out of LA and am now currently crashing at Jennifer's temporary apartment in Germany. Yeah I know, crazy right? Germany! Europe! It's such a nice country. People are nice, architecture is great and of course the language! It's so complicated and strange but I love it!

So, here I am enjoying life in Germany. I quit my job and started over again. I'm getting help to. After the events from, you know what, I broke down, completely. Jennifer convinced me to go to a psychologist, she could help me process everything. Luckily I had Jennifer. She's been such a good friend and helped me a lot.

I still had contact with my brother, I've forgiven him. Of course I did, he's my brother after all and supported me in everything, even me starting over. I miss Dylan though but we Skype often, he always asks me when I'm coming home. It's so hard to answer because I don't know the answer yet. I like it here, far away from everything...

Jason was an other story. He was furious at me, not for leaving the country, no. He was just furious because I didn't take him with me! So he traveled after me and now we're living happily together with Jennifer.

And I have some great news! Jason has a boyfriend! Yes! He met him on some sort of party and now they've been dating for almost 2 months. His name is Brendan and comes from the U.K. Normally he would've stayed here for only 2 months but he got a job offer so now he's staying here, for his job but also for Jason.

Jason found a job too, isn't great? I'm also looking for a job but Jennifer told me not to rush it, I should just take my time and not worry about money or anything. She's too good for me, I'm starting to feel guilty but she always brushes it off likes it's nothing. But someday I will repay her, I will.

I haven't heard anything from Chris, which is good. I try not to think about him but sometimes it just happens. But I'm starting to notice I don't think about that often anymore, he's leaving my life. Slowly but surly.

I sighed and let my head rest on Jason's shoulder. We were watching tv together with Jen, just like the old time. It felt right, this felt right. No more drama, no complicated relationships, nothing...

I can't even remember how this all began. How I came into this storm that almost consumed me.

How did it start?

Wasn't it with just one look?
