Okamis arm swung to quickly cover herself from the light, she hadn't remembered hell being so bright.. The scene set in, The curtins were held open letting the sun into the hospital room.
Okami's body felt..over done? She felt as if she had been drained and she just needed to relax and have a good nights rest.

Rowans shouting alarmed her, he had burst into the room. Slamming the door against the back wall. Breaking the silence. A nurse appears to have been chasing him down the hall, he Skidded to a Stop at the door.

Rowan flashed by her side, she could barely pull herself up before he was trying to scoop her into a hug. Cuddling her against his chest. Okami felt as if she could just melt into the situation- into his arms.

The nurse had stopped in the door way, He was hesitant. Rowan wasn't supposed to be here.

Okami looked back up at him, He shook his head a no. The nurse had a defeated look while he left.

"I'm surprised you showed up"

Rowan rose a brow, he was a bit taken back.
"Why wouldn't I? You Tried to kill Yourself!?" He burst out suddenly, "what were you even thinking?? Are you okay?!"
Okami held her breath, she felt more ashamed then anything..

Rowans eyes darted back and forth, scanning her expression, his eyebrows furrowed while he slid back. "I just need a second.."

Okami let out her breath as soon as he left, Falling back onto the bed. She felt selfish, Stupid, Annoying, bile. Thers alot of words she could describe herself with.

Why hadn't he just left her?

Maybe if she hadn't texted him

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Okamis phone sat on her bed infront of her.

It was one of those moments, to be? Or not to be?

She had already made her decision, pondered over it. She was sure this what the right thing to do.

Every time she reached to the phone her heart pouded louder in her ears. She couldn't just leave him with nothing!

She was too nervous, what if he calls the police?? Maybe he just wouldn't understand, maybe he would wait till school to question her.

She choked out another long sob as she dropped the phone onto the bed, smothering the noise with her hands.

He responded with a few question marks before she scrambled for the bottle.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Okami took a breath, she hadn't planned on coming back here, to school i mean. she hadn't done her homework either which was a down side.

When she took her first step she expected nobody to care. For it to be regular day where nobody cared or really payed attention

She was....wrong? To say the least.. It was actually the complete opoosite,
As if the moment she walked in threw the door she was in the spot light.
All eyes were on her.

She could feel the stares and murmurs behind her while she went threw her locker.
she Wasn't sure if it was better being left alone.

Rowan swooped in from behind her, seizing her by the wrist and wrapping her into a hug.

Yeah this was worse.

She looked up at him, questioning his actions. Rowan grinned, squishing her cheeks and pulling her into a kiss.

Okami burst into a bright pink, some of the students are them chuckled, laughing at rowans sudden display of affection.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Rowan side stepped onto the sidewalk. School had just ended, he was looking for okami who had skipped out on gym.

He made his way threw the main entrance, pass the lockers and out the back doors.

Okami liked to sit in the flowers when she was down, they helped her melt away the anxiety and stress of the day.

He stepped down onto the Grass. He was right, there she was sprawled out in the thinly spread out flowers.
She looked calm.. Rowan hadn't seen her calm in a long while. He took a step towards her. careful and silent. Trying his hardest not to disturb her peace.

The flowers crinkled under his feet. Okamis eyes fluttered open, and rowan let out the breath he hadn't realized he was holding.

Okami pushed herself up. Rowan stopped for a moment, he hadn't noticed how perfectly the sun fell over her before. The sky blue flowers scattered around her really did help aswell.

He knelt down beside her carefully.

Neither said a word.
The silence was heavy, Rowan felt as if he needed to say something as it was choking him, but the right words didn't want to come out.

Okami went to stand, until He grabbed ahold of her wrist.

A simple 'wait' was all it took for her to stay. Why wasn't it that easy before?

"Okami...we need to talk"

She didn't say anything, but He knew.
It must've been the way her shoulders shook, or maybe how she had collapsed into him.

He knew this was hard for her, How could you not? But they had to talk, to sort threw it if she was ever going to get better.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"I don't know what to do with her.." Rowan sat on the parkside bench, defeated.

Gareth was playing with something beside him, "have you tried talking to her about it?"

"I cant! Every time i try to bring it up she breaks down.. I dont even know what to Say anymore.."

"I don't know dude," gareth flicked something away from him. "Aren't you leaving for the military soon? What're you going to do then?"

"I'm not going.."

"Wait what-?" Gareth stood up suprised, "but thats all you ever talk about! "

"I can't just leave while shes like this.."

Gareth sighed, Running a hand threw his hair, "so you're just gonna quit?"

Rowan looked up from the ground, "is there much else i can do?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Okami sat cross legged on her bed, She felt.. exhausted? That wasnt quite the word she was looking for but it worked, today was the day Rowan was to leave. Going to The military was a big step in someones life, it guaranteed a income for years. And was honestly the best way to provide for your family.

She laughed at the thought of them, of a family.

Her phone buzzed, it was rowan.

'Im outside'

Why was he here? Okami didnt understand but she didnt hesitate to leave her room.

Rowan was waiting outside for her. She didnt understand, he should've been gone by now? Maybe he stopped to say good bye.

"Rowan?"

"Hey..i have some news.."

"Whats wrong?" She stepped closer.

"I'm not going."

Okami blinked startled, What does he mean hes not going? This was obviously very important to him! How could he just give this up.

"I can't just leave you behind while you're feeling like this"

Oh no

"I am going to stay, and be here with you"

ohnononononononono

"Rowan you can't just give up like that! Especially for someone like me.. How can you think im possibly worth giving up your dreams like this!?"

"How could you think you're not?"

She always loved how calm he could be.

"you're the best thing thats ever happened to me.. Why would i wanna leave that behind"

Okamis eyes were glossy with tears, "Go! Please.. Ill be fine.."

"Okami-"

"Please... I can't have you giving up on me.."
