"No, Mary queen of Scots. Come down, please, Maddie."

"I will, later." I say laying down on my back, looking up at the sky.

I turn back into the room, biting my lip in frustration, then say out of the window, "I'll be back later." Hopefully.

I stay up there god knows how long. It helped me clear my head though.
I sigh looking up at the sky, stars twinkling in the darkness.
"God, it's amazing." I mutter quietly.

I walk back out of the room, drawing my wand again and heading downstairs, out into the street.
I pause for just a moment, then apparate to go look for him.

I close my eyes for a moment then what seems like a few minutes reopen them seeing the sun."Bloody hell." I mutter sitting up,"How long have I been up here?' I say to myself. Looks like it's sunrise.

I mutter angrily to myself as I apparate back into the house.
It seems he didn't want to be found.
Well, that's just perfect.
I work up the nerve to do...something, and can't find him.
Fucking perfect.
I head back upstairs and back into the room, glaring hatefully at the files, then flicking my wand at them so they went up in flames.
Not actually caring anymore...well, for the moment anyway.

I brush my hair back off my forehead, pulling my knees up to my chest watching the sunrise.

I sit down furstratedly on the bed, hearing Erin in my head, Always together right?
Always.
We'll even die together, won't we?
There's no way I'd rather go. Promise, Erin. I promise.
"Yeah, you fucking liar." I mutter to myself.
I sit there for a moment, then remember Maddie's still on the roof.

I raise my arms over my head, hanging my legs over the lefge of the roof."I gotta do this more often." I mutter to myself.

I lie back on the bed tiredly, reasoning she could look after herself.

I lie flat on my stomach looking over the ledge of the roof, instantly thinking of how Erin had killed herself.
I could heard Gideon in my head.
It's Erin. She killed herself this afternoon. He said she jumped off the tower and he tried to reach her but she'd already fallen too far...
I could hear Kevin in my head as well.
Are you scared of heights Speare? What are you going do? Get your little boyfriend to come after me? Have a nice life Speare. I could hear my mocking me, I still remember that night, when he tipped me out of the window.
I shudder, shaking my head, Don't think about it.
My hand goes to the chain around my neck, it felt werid not having my medallion anymore.

I close my eyes, lying back, trying to silence my stupid fucking thoughts.
"Stay the hell away from me! Don't come near me again, Ian! I'm sick of you fucking everything up for me! It's because of you all these people are after me in the first place! It's all your fucking fault! Stay the hell away from me!" Erin's voice kept repeating itself over and over in my head, over and over.
I try to force what Gid told me back over the top of it, "She didn't mean what she said. This is not your fault, Ian. It's not. She just needed someone to blame and you'd just fought...she just needed someone to blame. Give her sometime to cool off, talk to her again, she won't have meant it. Pip never does."

I look down letting my hair fall into my face recalling the day I first met Erin.
"Want me to come in with you? For moral support? I'm suppose to report something to him anyway,"
"If you would."
"Sure no problem. You jump I jump right? We're basically both going to get a licking,"
"Fuck yeah."

I close my eyes, trying to shut off everything in my head, but not quite managing...remembering everything...the first time I met her.
I hurried along the cobbled street, hand shielding my eyes from the rain, ducking into a shop doorway.
"Get out of here!" The owner ordered almost immediately. "Don't want your sort round here, be off with you!"
"Be nice, father." A redheaded girl about my age placed her hand on the owners arm "What's the harm? He's just trying to stay out of the rain. Wouldn't condemn an innocent man to a cold, would you?" She laughed.

I sigh sitting up and swinging my legs over the edge, as I did so knocking a few tiles loose sending them over the ledge. A few of them hitting the side of the house making crahsing sounds. "Oops." I mutter looking down."I'm gonna have to fix that."

I sit up immediately, hearing the crashing sound, heart beating in my throat right away.
With only a little pause, I grab my wand and make my way back into the other room, looking out of the window again, just making sure she still was on the roof.

I nod,"Yeah, kinda fell asleep up here." I grin sheepishly.

I glance back into the house, then shrug, and climb out onto the sill, then up onto the roof with her.
