I sat on the রান্নাঘর counter, in the painful silence. I wanted this, why was I so sad? There was a knock on the door, and my হৃদয় skipped a beat. I went and got it, and was surprised to see it was Andrew.
"Hey. I was hoping আপনি weren't gone yet," he smiled. I smiled weakly.
"Hey. What's up?" I let him in.
"Just wanted to say goodbye. And see how you're feeling." My hand instinctively went back up to my throat, the gauze still wrapped around the healing stitches.
"I'm doing good. Thanks."
"No problem," he sighed. "So, Belinda's probably going to be in for life; for murder and attempted murder."
"Good," I ব্যক্ত bitterly.
"I'm sorry 'bout that night," he ব্যক্ত softly.
"Don't be. I was just in the wrong place at the wrong time... I'm sorry about your brother." He smiled sadly.
"It's ok. I guess now I don't feel as bad, thinking that Dalton was so upset with his life that he killed himself... It's still not fair, but... I don't know. I guess it kind of eases the guilt. I hate belinda's guts now, though. I thought she was just a poor little victim like the rest of us were. Guess not, huh?" I shook my head. Andrew looked down at my bags দ্বারা the door. "So. You're going?" I nodded. "Why?" he asked. He chuckled a little. "I mean, I was starting to like you," he smirked. I smiled back, then sighed.
"I... I guess I'm just not fit out for this lifestyle anymore," I said. Andrew nodded understandingly.
"Well, I hope everything works out for you," he said.
"Thanks," I said. He opened his arms, and it took me a couple সেকেন্ড to realize he was gesturing for a hug. I walked into his arms, and hugged him back. He squeezed me tight, then let me go. I reacted on an impulse next; I stretched up on my tip toes and kissed him on the cheek. I guess we were both speechless after that.
"Hey," Reed walked in, yawning. I took a giant step back from Andrew, and waved at Reed.
"Good morning." Reed stopped when he saw Andrew. He still didn't like him. He associated him with all the terrible things that were happening in our family.
"Uh, I was just leaving," Andrew said. He hugged me again one আরো time, then left. I almost wanted to run after him, but my feet were anchored to the floor. Reed sighed.
"When is she getting here?" he asked, annoyed.
"I don't know. She ব্যক্ত around noon," I answered. Reed sat down on the couch, and put his head in his hands. I walked over slowly and sat down পরবর্তি to him. "I still প্রণয় you, আপনি know." He grunted. I put my hand on his back. "I do!"
"Then why're আপনি leaving?" he said. I could hear the suppressed cries in his voice, and I leaned on him.
"I just can't live like this anymore. It's not your guys' fault. And don't আপনি dare think for one সেকেন্ড that I don't প্রণয় আপনি guys." He looked up at me, tears were welled up in his eyes. He wrapped his arms around me, and pulled me into a big hug. Carmine came out from the hallway, his eyes wet and bloodshot as well. "You heard that, didn't you?" I asked. He nodded. "Good. Then I don't have to repeat myself," I said. I opened up an arm for him to যোগদান the hug. We sat there, crying. I don't know why I was crying. I had wanted so badly to leave my old life behind, and now I was sad that I was getting it.
There was a knock at the door. That had to be her. I went and answered the door.
"Hello," Gail smiled. She assessed my expression, and pursed her lips. She patted my shoulder. "It's for the best, dear." I nodded.
"I gotta say goodbye first, ok?" She nodded.
"Of course, dear. I'll put your bags in the car. I hugged Carmine and Reed again.
"I প্রণয় আপনি both. So much," I ব্যক্ত through tears. I kissed them both on thier cheeks, and then went to Nikolai's room. I knocked on the door.
"Come in," he grumbled. I opened the door slowly, the doorhenges squeaking.
"I have to go now," I whispered. He was sitting on his bed, staring at his feet that hung off the edge. I sat down পরবর্তি to him.
"You sure আপনি want to do this?" he asked. It pained me to say "yes." He sighed. "Well, I guess it wouldn't be fair of me to not let আপনি go." He looked at me.
"I প্রণয় you," I said. I lunged forward, hugging him tight.
"I প্রণয় আপনি too," he whispered. I kissed his cheek, and he kissed my forehead.
"Bye," I said, my vision blurred দ্বারা tears. He hugged me again.
"Bye, baby sis," he said. I left, and Gail was already back from putting my stuff in her beatup truck.
"Ready to go?" she asked. I nodded. We got in the truck, and I saw my brothers waving from the apartment window. I waved back, and wiped away my tears.

"Harley!!" Aspen shouted, running from the house. I gasped when her head collided into my stomach, almost knocking the wind out of me.
"Hey," I laughed. Jezebel and Scout came out, Scout holding Bride. Jezebel came and hugged my waist as well.
"Are আপনি really truly staying this time?!" Jezebel asked excitedly.
"Yes," I laughed.
"Yay!" they shouted. Sky ran from the house, and jumped up and licked my face, barking and panting.
"Welcome back," Scout smiled.
"Thanks," I smiled back. We all went to the park after that, even seeing Trace there.
"It's good to have ya back, Harley," he said, putting an arm around me. I laughed. Later we went back to Gail's house for dinner. Then, we had our movie night. We watched "Pictures of Hollis Woods."
"That was a nice movie," Jezebel ব্যক্ত appreciatively.
"Yeah," we all agreed.
"I wonder if we'll ever get adopted too," Jezebel wondered. I frowned nervously. I came here to be with them; not get adopted.
"You already did," Gail said. We all looked to her. I don't know about everyoen else, but I was absolutely terrifired. Gail smiled. "It just got settled today. I adopted all of you." My jaw dropped, as did everyone else's. We all hugged her, giggling and the others crying from happiness. "Harley, that's ok, right?" Gail asked cautiously.
"Yes!" I said. It was a dream come true, actually! Now I knew for sure that my family wouldn't be seperated!
It was perfect.
"Hey. I was hoping আপনি weren't gone yet," he smiled. I smiled weakly.
"Hey. What's up?" I let him in.
"Just wanted to say goodbye. And see how you're feeling." My hand instinctively went back up to my throat, the gauze still wrapped around the healing stitches.

She fell to the floor and wept, and the jar shook
The দিন ended on a cold note for the cold night
He had her হৃদয় sealed in a jar, fragile and trapped
Until he had his moment and let go
With little strength, she had saved it and ran
She had ran until the darkness was unbearable,
As she wept, the jar shivered in her arms
Her dark blue eyes were drenched
And her mind was a dark, narrow corridor.
Her heat prolonged in entrapment,
Torturing her unknowingly with each eternity-like moment.
Finally, she ceased her overwhelming emotions,
Now silent and pondering
Distracted, the jar fell, and shattered at her feet
He’s gone. He’s gone! The words danced in her mind.
Her হৃদয় was free, and she was free
She got to her feet, no longer stumbling
And the shattered jar crunched under her feet
There was no আরো pain.
~~~~~~~~
...Yeah, I know it kinda sucks. Like I said, first attempt. :/

~ Chapter 1: Dreams
Love. Unconditional and pure প্রণয় was there, found in their hearts. Feelings, pure and strong lived from দিন to day.
But the days were cold. Cold wind froze their dreams.
A child was born.
Dreams, spreading its roots, now slowly fade.
But still live and last in the hearts of the dreamers.
A child wasn't a part of a dream, though.
It wasn't. But প্রণয় was still there, although destroyed দ্বারা many issues, it started fading slowly like a smothered flame.
Mother's eyes was full of hope and হৃদয় full of love, so pure, so gentle.
She knew. Life won't be দুধ and honey, though she must be strong.
Looking at her baby girl, happy and sad in the same time, so many thoughts were flying through her head.
So many questions, perhaps a small dose of regret.
She felt sadness inside.
প্রণয় was still there, that pure প্রণয় that kept them alive, though these dreams they both had were somehow far and unreal.
A flame of প্রণয় was still burning...

Texas Rancho Viejo 1942
Bonnie's POV
I walked quickly down the dusty dirt road, I kicked and scrapped pebbels, It was hot and dry today, another great thing when your isolated! *CRASH* I gasped, I slowed to a stop and carfully and slowwly turned around. Behind me stood a man. He had wild brown hair and blue piercing eyes, He held a gun and a charcol covered teddy bear. He smiled and inchined twords me. "Whoa pardner, who are you?" I asked in my thick texian accent. "I am a friend" He ব্যক্ত kindly. I suspiciously eyed him up and down. I reached into my back pocket and gripped my fingers around a gun I found. "Dont be afraid i'll make it all better" He moved closer to me, I panicked.Is this the phantom murder? I thought. I pulled out my gun and aimed it at him. "I dont think আপনি will"
I ব্যক্ত sweetly, then I triggered it and shot him, he fell to the ground stunned. I smiled. When your isolated in texas আপনি cant trust anyone. and i mean ANYONE.
