Closure

I couldn't comprehend what just happened now.

Landon isn't dead.

He's alive.

He stood right in front of us, but still it wasn't him.

We sat him down in the library and we all sat at a table.

We sat in silence not knowing what to say to each other.

"Do you remember anything?" Rafael spoke, finally breaking the silence.
"Um I-I don't know", Landon stutters. "I remember waking up in a pit of goo and there was this guy who helped me. He said he's name was Clarke."

Clarke.

Landon's brother.

"A-and how did you end up here?" Rafael asks.
"Clarke gave me an address and said I'd find answers here." Landon replies.
"But why now?" Rafael asks.
"I guess I was too afraid to find out who I was- or am." Landon says with a slight smile.

I chew my lip in discomfort as I didn't want to be here.
I had grieved over Landon already and now he's here!?

It's bringing back so many memories that I don't want to remember.

And worst of all he doesn't remember.

Anything.

"I-I think I'm going to go." I say getting up abruptly.

I sped out of the library and I ran.
At least that's what I do when something goes wrong.

I lay on my bed in my room numb.
Tears mindlessly falling from my eyes.

Josie's POV
—
Landons return was unexpected.
I thought he had died.
I know it's bringing memories up for Hope and it's hurting her.

"Excuse me." I mutter as I rise from my seat, following Hope out.

I walk to Hopes room where I knock softly onto the door.

"Hope it's me." I say softly.
Hope doesn't reply.

I push the door open and I see Hope laying on the bed crying.

It hurts to see Hope like this.

I walk over slowly and I sit near the edge of the bed.

I place my hand on Hopes Leg.

Hope slowly turns to me, but doesn't say anything.
She just reaches for my hand and I hold it.

"Are you okay?" I ask.
Hope just shakes her head slightly.

"I-I'm here if you need me." I say softly.

We sit there in a silence as my hand still holds hers.

"What do I do." Hope whispers.

"Get closure maybe?" I suggest.

Hope sits up and I move back to give her space.

"How?" She says.
"Talk to him." I say.

I kiss Hope on the forehead before leaving the room.

Hope's POV
—
Closure.

How do I get that?

I get out of bed and I make my way down to the library.

My eyes meet Rafael's eye.
"Can I talk to Landon." I ask Raf.
He nods and leaves the place.

I take a seat across from Landon.
