Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters or lyrics used.

I written this with the end of Love is Battlefield (703) and Death Or Glory part 1 (705) happening on the same day.

There will be references to other characters but this is essentially an Alex and Darcy story.

Lyrics are Lonely Girl by Sandi Thom

Alex walked out of the student house and weighed up her options. She was trying not to cry. Her mother had let her down and now the only person she loved had ended it. It wasn't like before when they still had a friendship. Palex was officially over, in more ways than none. Though she said she was going to Ajax, she didn't want to, the truth was if she was to go there, she would need to get the address from her mother and she wasn't going back there anytime soon. She looked around and decided to walk around for a bit to clear her head. She wasn't really thinking about where her feet were taking her. She just kept going.

Sometimes I see her down by the river
The water dances on her skin
She can captivate to hit the ice
But she never lets you in
In the dark she lingers
Like a tear without a soul

Darcy surprised herself when she blurted out the Mr Simpson that she had been raped. She found herself spiralling out of control. It wasn't like her to chat back at teachers, hell it certainly wasn't like her to cut across her wrist. She hadn't been herself till she realised the truth. She sometimes wished she never knew. She was seeing Ms Suave but didn't see the point of it. She always wanted to know, to get inside of her head and she didn't want that. She didn't want to tell her because that would be admitting that it happened. That's why telling Mr Simpson came as such a shock.

She left school that day and didn't know what to do. She couldn't go to friendship club, in fact, she didn't want to go. She was dirty especially to them. She felt that they knew, they probably did know, thanks to Kim. Everything that she knew just didn't seem to matter anymore. She needed some control but didn't know how to gain it. She kept walking around for what seemed like hours with no destination in mind.

Trying to find her way
In this mixed up messed up world
And I see so many faces just like her
So many broken hearts in the world
What a lonely girl

Alex and Darcy were both dazed as they walked along the street. Not realising that the other was walking in the same path as each other, they collided.

"Watch it God squad". Alex realised who was in front of her.

"Bite me Alex, or would that be a turn on for you". Darcy replied.

"You'll go to hell with a mouth like that". Alex countered.

"Then I'll see you there, don't worry, I'll save you a seat" Darcy spat back and walked off.

Alex smiled and muttered, "The Jesus freak has some bite".

Alex took a deep breath and finally decided where she was going to go.

But I see through her sadness deep into her soul
All she's wants to have is someone she can love to make whole
