I respected his decision, not wanting him to go though. "F-Fine..." I said, the depression coming back. "Do what you want." I stood up and walked back out on the balcony and letting the rain come down on me.

"Rayah..." Jace looks at her, watching as she walks to the balcony. "I don't want this. The separation, I mean. It...It feels wrong."

I ignore him, the pain returning. I stare out into the stars hoping this will come to an end. The rain coming down on me.

Jace swallows and looks down.
"Fine. I guess working it out isn't going to fly." He says, taking his bag and walking to the door.
He looks back, feeling the emotions build up inside him again.
"I meant what I said by the way." He says, his voice slightly wavering. "It wasn't too soon for me."
He turns away and walks down the hall.

I start crying again and turn back, slamming the door and jumping of the balcony, and landing safely on the sand by the beach like I intended to do and lay down in the sand, hoping I'll see him again. I see him walk out and he walks past me. I sit up and look at him. "Jace? bye."

"Jace? Bye." Rayah calls.
Jace turns around to find her crying. His heart aches and a tear slips down his own face. He drops his bag and rushes to her, wrapping his arms around her and taking a deep breath.
"I'm so sorry."

I look away not wanting him to see me like this. "Don't say that."

"W-what do I say then?" He turns her towards him, wiping both their tears.

I look over at him. "You don't have to say anything," I said, my voice cracking.

Jace hugs her, stroking her back gently with his knuckles.

I pull away, thinking about Charlie. "Are you sure about us? Do you really want this?" I asked crossing my arms.

"I told you." He says, flashing a smile. "I meant what I said...about you."

I smile back at him, "I know." I fell back into the sand and let out a sigh of releif.

Jace sits beside her, flashing a smile, and takes a deep breath.

I look over at him smiling. "I love you too."
