•
•
•
•
He stares for a while, such glory
•
•
A masterpiece made in a fit of fury.
•
•
So many emotions conveyed in canvas,
•
•
Those who views it delves deep into their pasts.
•

•
•
•
•
Jack kept silent,
•
•
Mind in a fuss.
•
•
His angel fighting; 'Be patient' ,
•
•
The other; 'What you want is a must.'
•
•
•
•
Out of school, Billie's feet kept going
•
•
Not realizing the path that she was taking.
•
•
Her emotions afloat, getting entangled
•
•
Leaving her gasping for air as though she's being wrangled.
•
•
Pain, in her heart, starts seeping through
•
•
A whimper escaped; 'Ace, where are you?'
•
•
Deep breath in, she closes her vision
•
•
Deep breath out, she looks around in question.
•
•
Her blood ran cold at the familiar location,
•
•
Where her feet took her with no conscious action.
•
•
•
•
As she stare at the stone,
•
•
Where his name was engraved.
•
•
She sits down for who knows how long,
•
•
Until pitter patter comes the rain.
•
•
Slowly, her face contorts in pain ,
•
•
As her tears began to mingle with the rain.
•
•
(Photo not mine)
•
•
She sobs, wails, and cries ,
•
•
Everything she pent up gets untied.
•
•
•
Billie: (*in pain*) (*volume gradually increasing*)
"I hate you. I hate you. I hate you. Ace Evans, I hate you! I'm alone without you. What am I supposed to do? I feel so lost without you here."
•
•
•
As the rain grew heavier,
•
•
Billie's cries grew louder-
•
•
-and louder.
•
•
Even with her clothes all soaking wet,
•
•
All she cares is for a reply from her best friend.
•
•
Not noticing from the corner of her eye,
•
•
A familiar someone passing by.
•
•
(Photo not mine)
•
•
Her pain, hidden by the storm ,
•
•
Her composure, all broken and torn.
•
•
But the freezing raindrops suddenly stops,
•
•
As someone shelters her -- a jacket -- on her head, drops.
•
•
•
Jack: (*worried*) (*slight panic*)
"Billie? What are you doing? Do you have a death wish or something?"
•
•
•
Billie says nothing as Jack guides her to take cover,
•
•
With her head hung low, she grips his jacket closer.
•
•
The two sat in a choking silence,
•
•
Billie anticipating his incoming rude comments.
•
•
Surprisingly, he did nothing of the sort ,
•
•
Instead, he actually gave her comfort.
•
•
•
Jack: (*sighs as he looks at the sky*)
"What a rain this afternoon."
•
•
•
Billie: (*silent*)
"..."
•
•
•
Jack: (*soft*)
"You alright though, Billie button?"
•
•
•
Jack wanted to smack himself,
•
•
The slip of the tongue, he wanted to melt.
•
•
Billie's heart felt as though it was gonna burst,
•
•
As the boy mentions a nickname that apparently was hers.
•
•
A memory flashed before her,
•
•
It was Ace's voice in a teasing manner
•
•
•
•
Ace: (*distant*) (*soft and playful*)
"Sup Billie button."
•
•
•
Ace: (*whiny*)
"Billie button, I'm hungryyy.."
•
•
•
Ace: (*whiny*)
"Billiiiee buttooonn..."
(*fades out*)
•
•
•
Billie: (*whisper*)
"Ace..."
(*tears*)
•
•
•
•
Alas, he'd done it again ,
•
•
On reflex, he asks the same.
•
•
•
Jack: (*worried*)
"You okay, Billie butto-?"
•
•
•
Billie: (*abrupt*) (*upset*)
"-don't! ... don't call me that!"
(*falters*)
"Only Ace does..."
•
•
•
•
Jack felt suffocated,
•
•
Caught in a place, so diffecult - unwanted.
•
•
Now, or not yet?
•
•
Gahh.. Rash decisions are not my best.
•
•
•
Jack: (*speechless manner*)
"I'm ..... sorry."
(*pause*)
(*sighs*)
•
•
•
Jack: (*nervous*)
"I - er , wanna tell you something."
•
•
•
Billie: (*sniffles*) (*soft , annoyed*)
"What?"
•
•
•
Jack: (*gulps*) (*nervous*) (*sigh*)
"Billie button, it's - "
(*hesitate*)
"it's me."
•
•
•
Billie: (*sniff*) (*soft , annoyed*)
"What do you mean it's you?"
•
•
•
Jack: (*stares at her intently*)
(*gentle*)
"It's me, Ace."
