Alison

The message wasn't confusing because now I knew my place and what I have done. It isn't about love anymore, now it's time for me to end it all, my life is stressful and I don't want to spend the rest of my life hiding to protect myself.

I felt like I was back where I was when I was a little girl, wanting to end my life, except now the tables have turned and my life will end even if I go on.

They're coming for me.

I hate to admit this but I'm scared, I'm so scared for Demi, Ryan or anyone connected to me. I put them in danger and I can't die because they'll live in fear too.

No this isn't like how it was when I was in the orphanage, now it's all real.

"Demi...I did something horrible." I blurted as we were eating in our hotel room.

"What? What did you do?" She asked, setting down her slice of pizza as she looked at me in concern.

So I told her.

She stayed quiet for a long time before she spoke. I waited for her words as if they would give me guidance but she shut her mouth like she had nothing to say.

I just gave her another problem, I should have just let myself get killed and leave her a note explaining what happened. I just wish she didn't care about me so much so when I finally end my tension she wouldn't be effected.

Why didn't she just give up on me? It would make it easier. I should have faked my death so she would get over me.

I've just been through too much and I can't handle anything anymore. I fought and fought, I think I'm going to lose. I'm going to let myself lose, because it would easier than fighting this battle with the same result.

"I can help you get away. You and me. We could run away and hide." Demi said looking to the floor on the other side of the room, avoiding my gaze.

I was about to disagree but what if they come after her? What if while I run away they use her as bait and kill her? What if?

"We should run away." I agreed and she slightly smiled.

"Maybe to the Australia or Asia." She suggested and I smiled at the mention of Australia. That's where Angel and Luke are maybe.

"Australia." I said, and she smiled.

"Ok I'll book the tickets." She said grabbing her laptop as I bit into my third slice of pizza.

"How long will we hide?" I asked her and she shrugged.

"As lolng as you want, we'll keep hiding." She said looking at me int the eyes. "Together."

"This sounds like something out of a book." I said thin in for the idea of running away with Demi.

"Well then maybe this is a book."

SUMMARY

Alison wants to end her life in fear of someone else coming after her, but the only thing that keeps her back is the idea of harm being done to her loved ones.

She decides to tell Demi about the fight and all her memories with Ryan. Demi stays silent not knowing how to respond. With Demi's silence Alison feels like she had put another burden in Demi .

Demi tells Alison they should run away together and hide, suggesting places of the worlds. The only option that sticks out to Alison is Australia, in hopes she could meet her old friend Angel and her boyfriend Luke.

Once they both agreed, Demi books tickets while Alison remarks how the whole situation seems like it's from a book.
