Her Unknown

*sits by herself*
He still hasn't found me.
I wonder if he ever will.
If he doesn't, I'll sit here.
I'll just sit here...

*thinks*
No. I'll die if I just sit here.
I'll call them.
I'll call them both. But Rizzo first.
*picks up disposable phone*
*dials*
*ringing*
Hello. Rizzo?
I-Its me.
Jumpy.

I-I. Thought it was time.
Time to call. But I'm sorry.
I can't do this.
Tell my brother I still love him.
I love you too.
Everyone.
I'm sorry.
*hangs up*

*dials a another number before she can think about it*
*thinks while its ringing*
I hope this is right. I hope.
I just..
*hears a gruff hello*
Oh. This was a mistake.
My heart will break.
*outloud*
Angelo.

*Whispers*
Angie.
Please come get me.
Hurry.
I don't want to be here anymore.
I'm alone. I'm afraid.
If you can still love me after this...

I'm-I'm okay.
I think. Dante is fine.
I'm in Belfast, Ireland.
In the clock tower.
Please. Hurry.
*disconnects*

*tears fall down cheeks*
I've thought a lot in this time.
I just want to go home.
I hope he gets here soon.
*tears fall into lap, soaking the piece of paper*
*folds up paper*
*kisses*
*puts under the table.*
This will be safe here.

*pulls up in front of tower*
*shoves money at driver*
*gets out of taxi*
*opens door to clock tower*
*goes up staircase anxiously*
Jumpy?
Jumpy?
*reaches top*
*opens door and sees curled up figure sitting at clock face*
*rushes to side*
Jumpy?
Jumpy, are you alright?
*checks for injuries*
*shakes gently*
*hoarsely*
Talk to me.

*looks up tears brimming in her eyes*
I'm fine.
*shaky*
I'm sorry!
I'm so sorry!
*falls onto*
Please...
*sobs incoherently*

*cradles*
It's--
I'm just glad you're fine.
*holds tighter*
I love you.

I love you too.
Please. Don't let me leave again.
*After an infinite amount of time*
*whispers into chest*
Will you take me home now?

*picks up and takes downstairs*
*opens door and helps Jumpy into taxi*
*warily*
Airport, please.
*closes door and hesitantly wraps arm around Jumpy's shoulders, pulling her closer*

*hugs close*
*whispers*
Angelo?
Hold on tight.
I'm not going anywhere.
But I might just float away if you let go.

*hugging knees to chest*
*holds Scorp's ring in one hand*
*thinking*
Was this the right thing to do?
I'm still sitting and doing nothing…
At least it’s a change in scenery.
*sighs*
I'm being so selfish right now, but it’s too late to stop.
I need to think things through, though…
I need him.

*phones rings*
*looks at caller ID*
Nikki...

*doesn't pick up*
I'm so sorry I left in a rush...
*sigh*
But I can't take it back now...

*gets voicemail*
*listens*
*tears stream down face even harder*
*whispers* I love you too...
I'll stay safe. I promise. It's the one thing I can do for you.

*almost as if she's talking to someone else*
I did the right thing... didn't I?

I just couldn't stay there any longer. I had to move.
I'm so confused, and...
*sighs*
I feel so helpless.
I don't know what I'm supposed to do.
A first huh? *laughs, but it's hollow*

*shakes head*
I hope they find me. I know Jumpy will chew me out, but she'll understand.

*smiles* Yeah, she's great like that.
But I'm not going back until someone finds me. I can't.
I made this decision, and I need to stick to it.
Besides...
*pauses*

I'm not ready to go back yet.

*looks up at them, tears in eyes*
I know. I'm stupid.
I shouldn't have left. I don't know why I did...
Reasons that aren't enough.

I just want to go home now. With the family.

*grabs Scorp's ring with one hand*
*waits*

*sighs*
*look her over, seeing her tear stained face*
Let's just get you home right now, ok?
The other stuff can wait until later.

*holds out hand*

*takes Jumpy hand and stands up, other hand still clutched around his ring*
Ok. That's all I want right now.

*sighs*
I know you're angry...

*slight smile* Hi, Kale.
Are you going to go home with us?

*all head out to the Jeep*
