Goodbye to you..



Of all the things I've believed in
I just want to get it over with
Tears form behind my eyes
But I do not cry
Counting the days that pass me by

(She let out a low breath as Braden opened the door to his apartment and let her in. For a moment she just stood in the doorway, looking into the place with a wary expression and a very childish stance before she sucked it up and breezed past him and into the apartment. She made a precurory lap of the spacious living room, trying to appear at ease, but the fact that her lower lip was tucked into her teeth was a dead giveaway that she was actually scared to death on top of annoyed. She absolutely hated leaving her childhood home.. it held memories of her brother that she was loath to leave behind, and now someone else would live in the home and erase those memories. She felt like Keegan was slipping through her fingers and that she would forget him if she stopped mourning him for a single moment. Subconsciously, she tugged his navy jacket closer around her shoulders and stopped near the far end of the room, having automatically put space between them.)

I've been searching deep down in my soul
Words that I'm hearing are starting to get old
It feels like I'm starting all over again
The last three years were just pretend

(For a moment she simply gazed at him, her intelligent blue eyes filled with sadness and a deepseated wariness of everything about him. He was not only the last person to see Keegan alive, but he was a part of the job that had gotten her brother killed and she was not about to let herself befriend another man who would get killed in the line of "duty". Finally, when it seemed like she had frozen in place, she cleared her throat and averted her gaze.) I.. uhm.. I'll be legal in a.. few months.. (More like eleven months, to be exact..) ..so you won't have to worry about puttin' me up for long.. (She murmured, shifting from foot to foot, her bad-ass attitude slipping a bit now that she was alone with him.)

And I said,
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold on to

(Now that that was taken care of, she crossed her arms around herself and stopped fidgeting, bringing her gaze back to him after a moment as if expecting him to kick her out or something. Not that she would mind.. she would just.. well, she would just.. not think about that, that was what she would do. Her gaze flicked to her back in his hand and she stepped forward a couple steps before remembering that she was keeping her distance.) Where do I crash? (She asked, the attitude back in place again, her stance somewhat challenging and a single brow arched.)
