How Easily You Forget.

Pierce -

"Leave Harmony...go back to the human world..." Sky let her voice trail off as the other three gaped; Alicia and two other girls.

Alicia was friends with Abby.

If I did this, she would tell her for sure.

I could back out.

But I wouldn't.

"Hah!" I barked out, a cold, lifeless laugh, walking out from behind the tuxedo cat, who jumped, spinning on her heels. "How quickly you've forgotten." I snarled. "How easily," I continued, my voice rising, "You choose to let go of them. The ones who didn't make it in. The ones who weren't. 'Good'. Enough."

I was nose-to-nose with the small girl, and guilt built in my stomach. I pushed it away.

I wasn't the same. Not since Kai had left.

I hadn't been face-to-face with these people for three years. I'd only ever spoken to Abby...held her back from all she could be.

I couldn't be there for her. I couldn't make her happy.

She needed someone better.

I let her down.

And I had nothing to lose now, as Sky looked for the words to say. To soothe me.

Hah.

"No. Shut up." I growled out. "You wanna leave? Get lost. What is it, you brat? Is perfection not good enough for you? Are you bored with heaven?" I started pacing, not daring to look Alicia in the eyes. I knew she was shocked to see me this way.

"N-no, it's not--I mean--"

"I said shut up!" I screamed, losing control, "You knew all too damn well the human world wasn't going to get better! It's probably hell out there, and you know whose stuck?! Our group. Our group is probably dead, but you didn't care when they left, did you?! No one did! Because you selfish pricks got your paradise, even if it meant others were sent back to hell! You're all so freaking disgusting!" My teeth were gritted so tight I was sure my jaw would break.

"P...Pierce...?" My blood ran cold as I heard that voice from behind me, and I turned to see a frightened girl with long, straight hair, looking terrified.

I sighed, tightening my hands into fists, "I'm so sorry, Abby." I breathed. "I can't do it. I can't do this. I can't...ruin your happiness, Abby." I looked her in the eyes, "I'm not abandoning my friends anymore. Three long years...and I've done nothing." I bowed my head, "I'm leaving. I can't do this...They can talk about how boring Harmony is, talk about leaving, talk about changing...But I'm done talking now." I whispered. "Goodbye, Abby. 'Love you. Thank you...for putting up with me. You're not like these...these freaks, Abby. You cared. And...I love you for it." I walked over to her slowly, and she flinched away. I stopped, but walked over anyway and kissed her forehead gently. "You can always find me, Abby, if you ever need me. Just call, and I'll find you." I hugged her stiff form tightly, and stuck my middle finger out to the rest of them before running off.

I was done talking.

I was going to leave.

I would find my best friend.

And I would be happy.

And Pierce is gone. For now, anyway XD
I might bring him back after the RP gets off the ground.
