   I smiled as Murdoc held my hand. I looked at him with so much adoration. He was driving us down an old, dark road. The Stylo held so many good memories. I was so happy. I looked out the window at the moon, thinking to myself how lucky I was. I looked forward and there was caution tape blocking the road ahead.
    "Murdoc, slow down," I said calmly. I looked over, him still holding my hand, he didn't look at me, his facial expression didn't change. "Murdoc slow down!" I screamed. It's like he was a lifeless puppet. Murdoc crashed through the tape and everything blocking what was to come. Suddenly, he looked at me slowly with a creepy, wide smile. As the car, went off the cliff, Murdoc morphed into a demon and flew out of the car window. The car flew quickly down. I was waiting to die at any moment.

    I quickly sat up in bed, gasping for air. It was just a dream, I realized. I jumped out of bed and analyzed the room. I was alone. The painful reality of what happened with Murdoc last night struck my heart. I felt so empty.           A lump formed in my throat and I broke down crying. I fell on the floor and wailed as loud as I could, pulling at my hair in frustration. I knew at that moment I'd never see Murdoc again.
    I crawled over to my nightstand and grabbed my bottle of painkillers. As I tried to unscrew the cap, I realized I had no strength. I threw the bottle and got out my pen and a notebook. Instead of going straight to my destructive behavior, I figured I'd write. I spilled my heart out on those pages in my shitty handwriting. Everything I felt at that exact moment. After about half and hour, I got sleepy and I felt better. Like a burden had been lifted.
   I was still sad, of course but, I felt that the whole in my heart had been filled for a bit. I was afraid of waking up the next morning. Who knew how I'd feel. As I laid my head down, there was a knock at my bedroom door.
"Yeah?" I called out. It was Noodle.
    "Hey. I just heard some noise and wanted to see if you're okay," she smiled, pitifully.
   "Yeah, I'll be okay. Thanks for checking. Goodnight, Noodle," I smiled weakly.
   "Night, D," she smiled back and closed the door quietly. I laid my head back down and listened to some music until I fell asleep.
