Akiko slowed to a walk to get her breath. She looked around as the salty air hit her. She sighed softly as he neeled on the ground, ditting on her legs. She still held her flute. She rembered she forgot her bag but didnt care.

[alana]

dean walked up the beach slowly thinking about what to say to akiko when he saw her on the beach in front of him, he sighed to himself and walked slowly up to her, "akiko?"

[JOS]

If she hread him she ignored him. She didnt say anything as she looked at the flute in her hands. The wind blew her long red hair back now still she sat unmoving.

[alana]

he shook his head, "you forgot your bag" he said holding back the part about the note, "i wish i could say something to make this go away"

[JOS]

"You should go help your friend, i thie vines arnt ganna let him go" she said softly still not looking up.

[alana]

he just looked at her, "he is not my friend, i dont care what happens to him, but i do care about you" he said soflty

[JOS]

"why dose it feel like a lie?" she asked him softly still looking down at her flute.

[alana]

he shook his head, "because almost every word that has come outta my mouth in my lifetime has been a lie" he said as he rubbed his head, "ya know what, whatever matt said, believe it, cus you're not gonna believe me if thats how you feel," he put her bag down beside her, "and ya know what, im not even gonna bother asking what that note is about, i guess this is goodbye then" he paused for a moment before turning to walk away

[JOS]

The grass tugged at his feet pulling him back. "dont" Akiko said softly. Rather it was to the grass or to dean no one whould really know. The grass stopped though and Akiko got up. "I dont wanna belive it" she said softly. Her eyes looked at him but all that was there was saddness "I dont...I dont want it to be the end"

[alana]

he turned back to her, "ya know what, i gotta tell you the truth about me if there is any chance at all at this not being the end, but i dont know whether you are gonna wanna still be with me after i tell you" i said sadly

[JOS]

She looked at him softly. "then tell me...please" her voice soft "becouse I wanna tell you somthing as well"

[alana]

he looked at her then broke away and looked out at the sea, "ok, me matt, and jason used to be like a gang, we used to go out almost every night and try to pick up girls" he sighed turning back to her, "thats not all we did though, one night, i was outside this club with a girl and when we were .....finished, this guy approached me and asked if i wanted somethin that would help get the girls a little more sweet on you, and i stupidly said yes" he wiped his hair off of his face and crossed him arms as if to give himself some comfort, "i gave em to matt and jason and they started usin em, i didnt know they would knck them out" he sighed, "i thought it would make them a little drunk, well when they said to me one day what they both doen to this one girl, i stopped hanging round with them, they had both raped her whilst she was inconcious"

[JOS]

She looked at him now "did...did you ever use them?" she asked softly.

[alana]

he looked down at his feet, but didnt answer

[JOS]

She looked at him "Did you?" She asked agen.
