-Max-

I went home, I was seriously thinking about not coming back. I went straight to sleep. Maybe if I didn't I would punch someone, or something.

The 2 weeks went past fast. Dad was taking most care of George, he insisted. I was searching jobs (just in case), catching up on sleep, and thinking about everything. After all that I still didn't know what to do or how this was going to work out.

My boss was surprised to see me walk to work on Sunday in my work hat and shirt. So I went up to him and said

"I'm here and not fired."

I went off to my shift. A new cashier was there, I pushed him out of my way.

I worked until my shift ended at 6. Because that was the time they closed on Sundays, I had to lock up. I was almost done counting the money in the cash-register when a girl walked up to the counter. I looked around, none of the employes were working anymore.

"Sorry we're closed," I said not looking up.

"But I'm hungry, and I have enough mon..," I cut her off

"I said we're cl," lifted my head up to look her in the eye, "Roxanne!"

"You know I think that the new burger place down the street is open." she smiled a quick fake smile and turned to leave, I grabbed her arm.

"Please, I started, can we just talk!"

"There's nothing to talk about."

I gave her a sad look. "Then let me talk."

Roxanne sighed. But she waited for me to lock up and bring her outside.

"I'm truly sorry, I was wrong. You're a gift to the world, and a gift to me. I never stopped loving you. Though everything that happened to me, from the first time I saw you I couldn't get you out of my head. I need you back."

-Roxanne-

I didn't know what I should do. I need him back too but, should I tell him? I got a headache when I started thinking about Max. He was sweet, funny, and everything to me.

"I'm sorry I'm not ready for this yet," I say. I wish I could say "I need to have you back, I don't care what happened, it's in the past. The only important thing is that you love me."

I just walked away. Tears were forming in my eyes. I was determined not to let them show. I sat at the nearest bus stop when I thought I was out of Max's sight, and began to sob.

-Max-

I stood there. A storm had started and it was raining. It made me feel as if the world was crying the tears I felt. I could make my tears come out. Extreme sadness crept over me. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Roxanne at the bus stop.

A shred of hope filled me. I walked closer. I started to hear sobbing. More hope was filling me. I reached the bus stop short of breath. She was crying into her sleeve. She didn't look up. I sat down next to here.

"Are you ok?" I asked.

She didn't respond, instead she reached out and hugged me, sobbing into my shirt. I smiled a bit and started running my fingers over and though her hair
