Amelia had tried, but she understood why Dela could speak to her right now. She was glad Jareth was there. It didn't matter who she talked to, it just had to be someone. Amelia half-smiled softly when Dela opened the door and said she just wanted Jar and Lila. It was understandable. Amelia walked out of the condo just as Jar went to get Lila. On her way out she stopped a couple of feet from the trio in the hall- Hunter, Jareth, and Lila. [i]"Thank you, Jar. For taking care of her. And for giving Lila her smile back."[/i] Amelia smiled softly before letting her eyes land on Hunter for the first time. 

Her heart ached, she wanted to make sure he was okay, but she couldn't find the words. Amelia turned and walked to the elevators, she needed some fresh air. Her heart was cold and her head was pounding. She stepped into the elevator and went to the top floor. After a little searching she found the staircase she was looking for. With a bobby pin from her hair she managed to unlock the door. Amelia walked up the two flights of stairs and pushed the door open to the roof. As she walked onto the roof the view took her breath away. She walked closer to the edge before sitting down on the concrete. The flame from the lighter lit her face as she ignited another smoke. Amelia pulled her knees up into her chest. Tonight had been one of the hardest nights of her life. The only other one that compared to this? The night Hunter was with that girl. She remember every little detail. She had been so excited to surprise him. She spent hours- hours- getting dressed and prepared for his arrival. She was wearing that burgundy strapless dress, her dirty blonde hair was in loose curls, she had bathed in lilac.. She could still smell the lilac. She was in love with Hunter. Not just loved him, no, she was in love with him.

Amelia sighed and took another drag of the cigarette as she looked over the horizon. It was beautiful out tonight. She wished the others could see this. She wished more than anything Hunter was here with his arm around her trying to make shapes out of the stars. Like they did in the back of his El Camino. Amelia looked up and let out a breath of smoke, maybe it was time to let go. Amelia was graduating and moving into her final years of veterinary school at Colorado State. In Colorado she wouldn't know anyone, no one would know her. Amelia flicked the cigarette and watching it sail off the side of the building before looking into her carton and realizing she only had one left.
