JOSIE
I stand starring fixedly at Daniel. It is hard to believe I just confessed my feelings to him, yet he is sending me away like an errant child.
"What? " I ask, I cannot believe my ears.
"You should leave Josie." He replies, not looking at me.
"Did I do something wrong?" My confusion is so real.
This man is like a winter sky, his mood changes so swiftly like a clear sky suddenly turning into dark clouds. He turns to me. The look in his eyes makes me recoil in fear. The brown of his pupils has grown so dark within the last minutes they could be mistaken to be proper black. The look in Daniel's eyes are suddenly a chilly cold. They look like Death itself to me. When he speaks to me, it was in a voice

DANIELLittle Josh Devin is two weeks old today. The birth of the baby seems to bring on an extra shine in Stan's home."You look awkward in that. " I say to Stan, half joking. He is putting on the apron Trace wears to feed the baby. My friend says nothing but grins at me. Stan, he looks out of place in all of this. He's that sort of guy who belongs to a gym room or a tattoo parlor. He's clearly not suited for daddy duties, but I do not think he cares.Today makes it two weeks since I asked Josie to leave my home. I do not like to remember it. I can still see her face wearing that hurt look and it makes me to realize how much of a monster I am."You can take Daniel out of Florida but you can't get Florida out of Daniel.

JOSIE"Josie, there's a man looking for you. He is outside waiting. Would you want to see him? " Patty is asking me. I am at work. Winter is finally here and the smell of Christmas with it. Life also seems to be meaningful again since I stopped my wild goose chase with Daniel Winchester, it’s no use spending so much time cooped up in my teenage fantasy. I am excited about going to college in Spring. Utah is my first choice."Wow, looks like you are becoming quite popular with the guys these days. Way to go Josie. " Stacey says. She's here so often chattering away, one would think she was also an employee at the restaurant. Its only lucky Patty does not care so much."A man? I am not expecting anyone.

DANIELI am running away from home, a monster is chasing me and despite how fast I run, he seems to be closing in on me."Come Daniel, you can't run” The monster calls to me in that voice I detest, but still I run on.

JOSIE"Hello Josie, thanks for coming" The blonde-haired woman with a baby says to me. It's not hard locating this part of the hospital that has been kept for very sick people."My pleasure, ma'am "I say and offer a stifled smile. This place has a feeling of death about it. There are tear streaks on the woman's face I am certain are as a result of continued crying."Josie" Stan says to me. He walks up behind the lady and wraps an arm around her waist, It doesn't take me long to figure this must be his wife."Stan, "I reply. He simply nods at me, not knowing the right words to speak.

"A gift from my Dad to you. "I say to Daniel. He doesn't reply instead he stares at me, open mouthed."Not everyone in Riverside hates you, Dan.

The old man's tale should make no meaning to me, but I don't know why it does, it seems to strike a chord in my heart, another piece in this puzzle that was my life."The lady, your woman. What was she called? "I ask in spite of the warning in my head not to say anything to this regard."Julie. I didn't know her for a long time, but for the little while we spent together, I was a different man. ""How long ago was this? ""Twenty-six years come spring. Young man that I was, foolish too.
