Good to know when you run naked and screaming into the woods in the middle of the night apparently they don't send you to the psych ward, but to some fantastic beach paradise.

This place reminds me of one of the islands the cruise my parents took me on a couple years ago when they broke the news that they were splitting up. Which is only minorly traumatizing in comparison I guess to being told you're fictional! Which is really cute because I'm so over this already.

Is anything worthwhile actually here? Besides sun and sand, obviously.

Congratulations. Have you also picked up an uncanny sense of hearing?

No. My hearing has always been perfect. 20/20 vision too.

...Really? [ Yes, Lydia. He is 100%, genuinely shocked by this revelation. ]

I know. In the 8th grade I bought some because I thought they'd make my eyes pop more, but it was mostly a mistake. Also they were just plastic lenses.

Is that so. [ He doesn't know what to make of you now, Lydia. ]

I wouldn't recommend them for your bone structure either. Do you have any other stupid questions or freaky statements about the night I was attacked?

Watch out for the full moon.

That's what Jackson said.

Did he now?

When I got out of the hospital.

What else did he say?

You really want to know?

Humor me.

That the next time I scream for help, he's not going to come save me.

Then he's an idiot.

No, actually he's pretty smart. Even if he's a loudmouth, self absorbed jerk who so severely lacks even the most basic understanding of spatial relations, meaning I had to get out and help him park no less than four times. Oh, and he also had some difficulty locating other sensitive places if you catch my meaning. But he's no idiot. At least not for saying that.

I don't want him to get hurt.

But him being okay with you getting hurt is alright?

I'm not his responsibility.

I didn't say you were.

No, but you assumed because we used to date he should care about what happens to me. That's wrong.

No, I assume that because he's a decent person, he should care about what happens to you. Apparently I assumed wrong.

No, he just gets it.

Gets what?

That sometimes the people closest to you can be the ones holding you back the most.
