"So um...when are we leaving?" Lucy asked. "Because, I really need to ask my parents if I can go...and we'll need supplies...and stuff..." she slowly stopped and fidgeted with her hair nervously.
"I think we should leave soon," I replied. I couldn't wait to get out of here. It was nice and all, and I was happy to have made it here, but it was just too perfect here. I wanted to get back out in the real world again.
Sky nodded. "And you're right, Lucy. I think we should meet up again soon to see what the others think," Sky smiled, "But I agree with Ariel, we should leave soon."
We all agreed to spread the word out to the others and see what they had to say, and so we went our separate ways. Asuka and Ben would surely like to stay. They had found a niche here, and they were living their lives happily. I didn't even want to ask Zero, because I was sure he was happy with where he was as well.
I wasn't really sure where to go anymore. I hadn't been particularly close with anyone in the group other than Sky, Zero, and Asuka. And now that Asuka was staying with Ben, Zero having left me, it left me with almost no one. I had never felt more alone than in this world where we were all supposed to be similar.
I sighed as I entered my house, going into the kitchen to get a glass of water. I downed it in one gulp, not fully realizing how dehydrated I really was. I turned around and looked out the picture window in the living room and watched the halfers walk by blissfully. It was a family.
How I had wanted one of my own. I had thought I could have that with Zero. A little girl or boy who would have me wrapped around their little finger. I shook my head, banishing the thought from my mind. I couldn't think like this. What was done was done and lingering on the pains of the past was only going to ruin my future.
Maybe by getting out into the real world again, I would find someone who I could be with. Maybe then I wouldn't feel so alone.
