Since You Left Me
~*~
"Its been raining since you left me
Now I'm drowning in the flood
See I've always been a fighter
But without you, I'd give up"

Mary-Lynnette crawled into bed after a night of studying, then looking out at the stars. She laid in her bed staring at the clock. It was almost five. She rolled onto her back and stared at the ceiling. The phone rang startling her. She answered it before it could wake anyone else. “Hello?”
“Mare, hey,” it was Kestrel. Mary-Lynnette wasn’t surprised, the middle sister was a night owl, in fact Kestrel had accompanied her to the field. “Your purse is still in my car. Just wanted to let you know so you wouldn’t be looking all over the place tomorrow.”
“Oh, thanks.”
“Are we still on for tomorrow?”
“Yeah,” Mary-Lynnette said, “we’d better move it to one, though, I need some sleep.”
“Me too. Rowan said that she’d come along.”
“I never thought you’d be into shopping.”
“Me either. But as long as we stop by Hot Topic.”
“We will. I just need to get some luggage.”
“Maybe we should stop by Victoria’s Secret too. Your school is very close to Las Vegas.”
Mary-Lynnette rolled her eyes. “Yes. But Ash hasn’t said anything about wanting to see me.”
“Oh, come on, you guys are soul mates, Mare, of course he’ll want to see you.”
“But he hasn’t come back.”
“It’s only been a couple weeks. Give him a chance, he might be on a mission or something.”
“I guess.” Suddenly, she just knew she needed to get in contact with Ash. “Do you think your brother’s awake?”
“No,” Kestrel said, “but he wouldn’t mind you calling him. I’ll let you go. I’ll see you at one.”
“Bye.” She hung up and stared at the phone. She had been waiting for him for over a year. The letters were nice but she missed hearing his voice. She missed him more than she ever thought she could.
The weird thing was that she was always a little afraid of falling in love. She was always a little scared of giving a part of herself to someone else, afraid that another person couldn’t be trusted to protect her heart. Even memories of how much her mother and father had loved each other hadn’t helped. Then Ash had come and completely screwed everything up. Suddenly, all her plans had him in them.
She picked up the phone and dialed his number. Even though she had never actually called him she had the number memorized. She had looked at it for hours debating on whether or not she should call him. “Hello?” his voice, God, how she had missed that voice. He didn’t sound tired so at least she didn’t wake him up.
“Ash...?” she asked. “It’s me.”
