My mind was constantly over active, as I sat on the little Camel-back couch. I couldn't get over how much regret was flooding through my body like a tsunami, unleashed, wild and free. Every moment that my mind wasn't occupied by some small task, it wandered like a lost toddler. Of course, it always wandered back to one person. Jade.

The sadness was overwhelming as it boiled inside of me. I finally decided to set myself an innocent, small task. I slipped on my running shoes and stuffed my set of keys into a pocket of a worn out jacket.

I slid through the door, closing it quietly. Once I had exited the hotel, I sighed, taking a gulp of fresh, cold, lonely air. I was free, out in the darkness. Alone.

I could barely feel the wind that was drifting past, ruffling my light brown hair. I looked up at the full moon, like a sphere of light that the darkness had captured. The sky was almost completely dark, apart from a few stars that scattered the sky like freckles. And the big, bold moon.

I sat myself on a wooden log, trying to forget that I didn't belong to this hotel, or even this horrible town. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if I didn't see Jade's beautiful face ever again. The thought hurt me like a blade stabbing my mind.

My mind was filled with the cold, hard emotion that was titled sadness. I pulled my hood up, as I lifted myself from the cold bench. I knew one way to stop thinking. one way that I knew of so far at least.

I took a quick glimpse of my surroundings before laying down on the stupid bench again, before I forced myself to black out.
