"But you did leave, you can't take it back. You left to help others, i understand that. And i need to choose, if i don't, then i won't ever be able to stop loving you."

I look away from her. If she's going to be happy, Gid... You want her to be happy. "Yes." I say hoarsely, heart breaking in two with the simple word.

I stay still for a moment, letting my hands drop to my sides. Heart breaking, blinking away tears. "Oh..." I choke out.

I run a shaky hand through my hair, blinking to clear my rapidbly blurring vision. I hated lying. Hated it. And this was the worst thing to lie about.

No. Of course not. I mean the opposite. I nod once, only once, not able to do anything more.

"Okay, i'll...i'll try my best." I whisper, not being able to stop the tears flowing down my cheeks. Why was he doing this?

I nod and turn away, deciding to leave the dance. I didn't want anyone to see my tear streaked face. He doesn't want you Izzy. I told myself over and over as i walked away.

I sat down heavily at the table again. "Look what uncle gee-gee did now, Bill?" I say softly to the sleeping Bill. "He pushed away his last chance. But she's going to be happy. She'll be happy. That's the important thing."

I reached the doors and looked over my shoulder back at Gid and Bill. I let my tears flow freely, i didn't care anymore. He doesn't want you. I tell myself again and again

I let my head fall onto the table, to hide the tears dripping from my eyes. Men don't cry, Gid. Men don't cry.

I walked out of the hall, closing the big doors behind me. Why had he done it? I thought he loved me?

I stand up and start to go after her, then force myself to sit down. I drum my fingers on the table for a few seconds. Then stand up again. Then force myself, having to use more effort than before, to sit down again.

I sit down in the empty entrance hall. Everyone was in the great hall having fun. I certainly wasn't. I sat, head in hands, sobbing quietly. Hoping no one would ask if i was okay. I would definately break down then. I couldn't break down. I wouldn't.

"Bill? What should I do? Should I go after her, Bill?" I ask him. He's still fast asleep. "Yeah, I'm going after her. Come on." I lift him up out of his chair, and holding him to my chest so his head was resting in the crook of my neck, then hurrying out of the hall. "Isa!" I call then see her on the stairs. I hesitate a minute, then go and sit next to her. "Isa-...I-...I'm sorry-...I didn't mean a word-..."

"Then why?" I say, edging away slightly as he sits next to me. I couldn't stop the voice in my head now He doesn't want you. Was still going round and round in my head.

I sigh, looking determinedly at Bill. "Because-...I thought it would be easier. I hate seeing you like this confused and worried about hurting one of us, I don't want you to be like this. I love you more than anything, I'd go to the ends of the earth just to see that smile of yours. And I don't want you to hurt. I want you to be happy. And you're not. Not while you're worrying about this."

"What so you think i'm better like this?" I shout and stand up. "You think it's better for me to think you don't love me?" I continue. "You think i'd prefer this? I'd much rather prefer being confused than having my heart ripped in half!" I let out another large sob and sink back down to the floor.

"I'm trying, Isa. I'm just trying to make you happy! I don't know what to do! It's killing me here! I hate it that you're confused and how awkward things are with us right now! I hate it! I want it over! I'm just trying to do what I can to make things easier!"

"But it's not making things easier." I say softly. "Things are just getting worse. The longer i take to choose, the worse things will get."

"Well, I can't help. I can't tell you what to do, or who to choose, and I can't tell you what's going to happen when you do. Because I don't know. This is your call, Isa, not mine."
