Okay, this is basically a drabble and probably crap. This just srpung up and I couldn't get it to leave me alone. Constructive critisium and praise are welcome. Anything else will tossed into the 'delete' bin in my email.

I claim no ownership over anything here except for my two mentioned OCs.

"Have you ever fallen, Johan?"

That question echoed in the bleak emptiness. Ariana felt her fists clench as she looked at her possessed crush. Hardly daring to breathe, Ariana continued, her teeth clenched, terrified that she might start crying.

"Have you ever fallen so hard that your soul literally shatters on impact? Have you ever loved anyone so deeply that when they're taken from you, you feel like your heart was just ripped out?"

Ariana knew her friends were looking at her as if she were crazy. Well, everyone but Rachel. She knew what Ariana was going through. Ariana's vision began to blur due to suppressed tears.

"Cause I have. I've fallen so hard I think there's nothing left of my soul but thousands of shattered pieces. Wanna know who I fell for, Johan?"

Ariana felt her leg muscles flex; she was more than ready to bolt after her next statement. She wasn't ready to hear his answer. Her boot scraped against the sand and a few tears escaped unbidden from her crystalline blue eyes. They hit the sand, darkening it more than it already was.

"It's you."

Without hesitation, Ariana turned and bolted. She didn't know where she was going, and quite frankly she didn't care. She would run forever if she had to. She do whatever it took to forget.

Anything to make her forget how hard she had fallen.
