I was in the woods by myself. The weather seemed to be getting cooler.

The soft wind blew against my skin. I felt it as I walked. I was quite far away from home. I looked at the silent environment around me. Light had shone down from the space between the leaves. It was green and white, everywhere, mixed with brown.

I had realized that it was almost fall. Summer faded away slowly around me. I liked fall. Not to cold or too hot. Like in between. The smell and itself just calmed everyone down. Less drama. It was the part of the year where I don't feel like killing myself.

I sat down in front of my hide out. That small white house. I sat there, with the knife in my hands. I looked up at the sky. Nothing but a few clouds and a sun. I looked away and sighed deeply. My headphones in my ear, as I silently hummed to a song by Paramore. Somehow that song fits my mood today. The gently rock melody is what I needed. I then stood up and leaned against the house.

I decided to walk around the house. I could see old paint chipping off from the house. I opened the door and walked inside.

I sat in my old corner, and carved more into it. Somehow, I seemed to get a vivid image in my head......Jeff... I thought. It was Jeff, how he sat in the corner with me as we cuddled. I smiled to the thought of it. It gave me warmth inside.

JEFF POV

I wanted to meet up with Amy. But something seemed to pull me back away from her. I loved her truly but why don't I just go to her? I thought. Maybe it was because of that one night. At the bar, when I finally said that I loved her.

Oh god! Why did I say that? She probably can't look at me anymore. Who would even like a white faced man. With a cut open mouth? And no eyelids? I am messed up. Killing is what brings me alive. But, should I kill Amy? Would it get rid of that feeling inside of me?

"NO!" I yelled. Why am I like this? Why do I get rid of the people that loves me? Who accepted me! I always wanted and needed someone. I finally have one. I was sure I didn't want to lose her. I took out my bandanna and put it around my mouth. I moved my bangs backs, and ran.

I ran out the woods and ran my way into the mall.

People were around me. Laughing and walking. Like how I was back then. I felt like an out cast. I remembered why I had come here. I looked around the large place for shops. People passed by.

I looked forward and saw a jewelery shop. I walked into it. Around me was gold and silver necklaces, rings, and earrings. They were under a large glass case. I looked down and saw them shine. It was beautiful. I began to picture Amy in them. I looked at the price and walked out.

I looked over to Hot Topic. There were people walking in there. I walked closer and heard the loud music. Somehow I like it. I walked inside, and looked through the necklaces. There style was perfect for her. I then picked out a heart shaped one. It was simple with a small keyhole i it. I took out $8 and payed.

AMY POV

I heard some footsteps behind me. The crunching of the few dead leaves. I looked around and saw someone with a white hoodie. It ran toward me. "Jeff" I whispered.

He ran up to me. I smiled and moved his bangs away from his eyes. I saw them, looking at me. "Jeff, hey" I said. We both hugged. We began to walk off.

We both stopped in front of a small pond. The water sparkled in the sunlight. We stood up and looked into each other's eyes. I took down his bandanna and smiled. Jeff had reached down into his pockets.

I could see him pull out a small box. He handed it to me. I looked at it amazed. "Jeff?" I said. "Open it" he whispered into my ear. I did. Inside the box, was a beautiful necklace. It was truly beautiful. "Jeff, thank you!" I bursted out hugging him. "Thank you so much" I whispered. "You didn't have to" I said, bursting into tears. It was the best thing I have got. I looked into his eyes. "It reminded me of you" He said touching my face.

"I wanted to say something to you, before you left the club the other day" I finally said. he looked at me. " I wanted to say that......." I whispered.

"I love you too"

After that, I held his two hands. I leaned over to him and kissed his cheek. We stood there, staring into each other's eyes. Just staring, and now deeply in love.
