What had I done? I nearly killed her. Why would I do that? Why did I even threaten to kill her when I knew exactly what I wanted? Why would I threaten to kill her when I knew I would not be able to? Her eyes bored in to mine and could not do it. I do not know what she was thinking when she led on the floor under my foot but something told me that she wanted me to finish her off and that is why I couldn't do it. I could not kill the one thing I knew I needed in my life. Ares needed me and I knew that but why could I not help her? What was stopping me telling her I loved her and that I wanted her in my life until the day I died? I did not know but I knew I did wrong.

I walked out of the hospital battered and bruised. I was in pain. My bottom rib was certainly broken but it was in place. The doctors said not to do anything to strenuous for at least 6 weeks. I wanted to stay and wait for Ares to get here but I knew that everyone would scorn me and tell me to bugger off so I did not and I walked out of there. I walked for ages not really knowing where I was going I knew I was not walking out of town but I felt like I was walking home.

Something was taking me in that direction but I did not know what so when I looked up and saw the one place I did not want to see. I knew I regretted everything I did today.

I walked up to her front door and touched it. I knew then I was an idiot. I looked behind me and looked at my house. I smiled. The good times had happened and now were lost. I looked around me and sighed. I needed to get away from this. I started walking away from them and then I heard footsteps. I looked behind me and cringed. My sister was power walking towards me looking like she was about to murder someone and I knew who that person was. She stopped in front of me and punched me one.

“Ow” I said holding my hand to my lip. I looked at my finger and saw blood. “That hurt,” I muttered.

“You bastard!” she screamed. “I hate you! You told me you loved her and now she is in fucking hospital fighting for her life because what she said to you. You do know she loves you right. You do know you made her life worth living again. Arg! Why am I saying this? I hate you! I do not want you in my life. Regan I thought you were better than that but I thought wrong” She then punched me again. I did not stop her though I knew I could. I deserved it. “Leave Regan and don’t come back” she then ran back then way she came and I knew she meant it. Therefore, I left. I left town and caught a plane to Italy and I stayed there. I was free.

6 weeks later

My whole body was numb. I heard beeping but that was it. Silence. At first, I thought I was dead but then I opened my eyes and saw a white room. There were people there watching me. Derrick looked worried and so did Raven. Everyone was there, besides one person. The one person I wanted there. I automatically bolted up straight. I looked around.

“Where’s Regan?” I said. Worried. Everyone looked at me shocked.

“Ares? Hey, how you feeling?” I looked at Cleo.

“I’m fine, where’s Regan?” they all looked at each other. Derrick told Ant to go and get the doctor and everyone just moved out the way. The doctor came in and checked a few things and then he looked down at me.

“It’s good to have you back Ares. How are you feeling?” the doctor asked. I frowned.

“I’m friggin fine! Where is Regan?” I asked. Everyone exchanged looks. My frown deepened. “Where is he?” I asked wary of their answer.

“No one knows. After the fight you guys went to the roof and when we got there you were on the floor out of it and Regan was gone.” Cleo whispered. “I went straight home thinking maybe he went home to think something over. He was there looking at your house. I got angry when I saw him. I had a go at him and told him to leave and never return.” My eyes narrowed at Cleo. I sat up and swung my legs out of bed.

“I need to find him,” I said. I started pushing myself off the bed but Derrick stopped me.

“Ares, you need to rest. You will not find him now. When your better you can look for him all you want” I looked at Derrick. His words seemed to fade as they reached my ears.

“I need to find him, I need to tell him, to not regret. I need to tell him.” I trailed off.

“Ares, you have been in a coma for 6 weeks, you need to rest.” Derrick seemed so set on me getting better. No one else was saying anything just watching the scene play out.

“I do not care, I need to find him.” I pushed Derrick out of the way and pulled everything off me. I then pushed myself to my feet and nearly fell to the floor but I pushed myself up. I took a small step forwards and then another. “I need to find him,” I kept muttering. I kept walking forwards to the closed door. I opened it and I was just about to take another step when someone one stood in front of me, tall, handsome, and mine. I cocked my head to the side and muttered “I need to find him” again.

I looked up and saw Regan standing there proud. I smiled and collapsed. Regan caught me and I looked at him. I smiled.

“You came back,” I whispered. He nodded.

“I realised I was a twat and that no matter what I had to come back if I didn’t I would lose my brain. I’d go insane.” I smiled. Regan picked me up bridal style and walked over to the bed. He placed me down softly and kissed me on the forehead. He then stood up and gave everyone a look once over. He looked at his sister the longest.

She finally smiled and gave him a hug. She could not hate him. No matter how hard she tried. My eyes fell to Raven. He had so far been quite looking at the situation but his eyes were cold. As the doctor had seen, I was now safely staying in my bed; he had left to sort something out. Raven stood up and walked over to Regan. Cleo detached herself from him and stepped back. Raven took Regan by the shirt and punched him. I screeched.

“You bastard!” Raven shouted. No one stopped him. They couldn't. I had won the fight. He was leader. No one could stop him. No one but me. But, I couldn’t stop him. Another fist hit Regan and another. “I hate you! You nearly killed her! She nearly died and you think you can come back!” Another fist and then Raven chucked him to the floor. “You’re despicable” Raven spat. Everyone was surprised to say the least. I looked at Raven but then my ears picked up another sound. I heard chuckling. I looked at Regan.

“Jealous type, aren’t we” Regan muttered. I frowned and looked at them. “Just because you cannot get what you want, doesn’t mean you have to take it out on me,” my frown deepened.

“Raven? What is he talking about?” he looked at me and smiled.

“It doesn’t matter,” he said and then he left. I frowned even deeper. I was confused but I would get the answer I needed.

Okay So I lied when I said I wouldn't update.... but I couldn't help it. It is sooooooo close to the end. I'm trying to close it all off. I don't want another potential sequel on my hands. Unless you guys want one. Let me know. No reviews for the last chapter :( That is upsetting but I still had readers which makes me happy. People still like my story. :D

I feel so..... weird. None of what is happening is part of original. I changed it. This chapter didn't even happen. Regan didn't even go to Italy for pete sake. I just hope you like it. Please review for me thank you. Now I'm going to get some Diet Coke. :D
