Two months had passed since Abigail had gone missing. Two months, that went by painfully slow, with Abby's face everywhere, news of her missing was always everywhere. Until the only place Lucy could escape her sister was her room, and even there memories haunted her in her sleep. Until the dreams turned to nightmares, awful nightmares. Nightmares filled with screams, and with sites of her sister, calling her name, dreams where she chased her sister, until she couldn't move anymore, and yet she never got any closer to Abby.

The nightmares had been haunting her for a while, she Lucy decided she wasn't going to deal with it anymore. Sleep wasn't required for her to work not in her mind. So she'd made a habit, of coming to the coffee bean, every day just before closing around ten thirty. She was there enough she was sure the owner was thinking about giving her a key to the place. Today Lucy had gone farther away from the store than she'd thought, and now it was past ten thirty and nearing elven. When she'd looked at her watch, she'd run here as fast as she could, and spent five minutes banging on the window but they were gone and she was going to have to spend a night with her nightmares.

Upset, Lucy moved around the store to the alley next to it, where she leaned against the wall, and slid down until she was sitting on the ground, her knees hugged tight to her, while tears fell down her cheeks, and she tried to hold back from sobbing but little gasping breaths came out, as she closed her eyes and leaned her head back against the wall, there was no point in trying not to cry she'd learned that in the past two months, she just had to let it out when it came she just had to cry in the dark, alone, in an alley.

Open.

[/i][/color] she thought to herself as she continued to walk down the streets. She went from spotlight to spotlight, her eyes gazing around her every now and then, just to make sure she was truly alone. She was coming up to one of her ‘sister’s’ favourite spots. She knew Lucy often hung out at the Coffee Bean, seeing as one of the waiters there was always talking about her. Carrie had heard Lucy leave a little before, and her curiosity had gained the better of her. She had been in her bedroom earlier writing another song to pass the time and so she’d taken her guitar with her, in case she didn’t find her ‘sister’.

As she came closer to the shop she noticed the lights were all out and the door was firmly shut. Sighing she looked around, it was most certainly closed. But where was Lucy? Frowning she walked back towards the mansion but as she went by the alley she heard a soft sob. Turning her head to the side she saw a small figure hunched over against the wall crying. Shaking her head she walked over to Lucy and sat down beside her. “It’s all right Luce,” she murmured into her ear as she placed her arm around her. Rubbing Lucy’s shoulder she rocked her gently and tears of her own started to fall. “It’s gonna be okay you know?” she comforted her. She always found that even though those things aren’t always true, they somehow seem to work. Abigail once did that for her and now she was doing it for Lucy. The Hollows were a family and they had to stick together if they were to pull through this. It was the only way.

If you asked Lucy what had come first anymore she wouldn't have been able to tell you. If she'd been upset before her sister went missing or if that had only gripped her after her sister had left, she didn't know. She didn't know the order of things anymore. All she knew was life was moving so quickly time was going so fast without her. The world was turning, and it'd left her behind, locked her in place two months ago, until every moment she lived in the present only brought tears to her eyes, as she was tormented by her daily life. Everything was a nightmare, everything was changed, everything was a moment more of waiting for something to be found out, for something to happen, for the nightmare to end. She just wanted it all to end, she needed it all to end, she couldn't stand this anymore.

Tears rolled down her face, instead of the normal feelings she got when she started to cry, she felt more angry than upset. She was so sick of crying, and being so weak, she wanted to be stronger, she wanted to be able to hold herself together, but she wasn't able to do that, no matter what she tried she just kept falling apart, and lately no one was there to hold the peices together. To hold together. Than just as she'd thought those words, someone had their arms around them, and was talking to her. She couldn't tell what they were saying her mind full of tears, but she knew who it was. Carry. She grabbed onto her, 'sister' hugging her, while she tried to calm herself down.

She looked at her sister, she tried to wipe the tears out of her eyes, over and over she tried to clear them but the more she did that the more they seemed to come. "Carry," she said bitting her lower lip, trying to holding in some of the tears. She sat up and looked at her, "God I'm a wreck," she said she sounded disgusted when she said it. Tears still sliding down her cheeks they were coming slower now. Slower than they had before. She looked at her sister, "Where did you come from?" she asked. A sob broke threw her lips, but she quickly covered her mouth with her hand, and wiped her tears on her sleeve, not caring if her make up was messed up. She hadn't done it well anyway.
