I run out into the snowy weather, running towards the forest. I can hear him calling my name, obviously looking for me. I get not that deep into the forest and sit down behind a tree. I can't believe this is happening. I don't want to deal with this! I guess I can't be cold and heartless forever like I thought. I start drawing little patterns into the snow, trying to get my mind off what just happened between me and Ryan. I may not look like it but I'm actually terrified right now. I don't... I don't know what I want. I don't know if I like Ryan... I don't know if I want a relationship with him or anyone else.... I don't know if I want what just happened to stay etched in history for the rest of eternity. If you haven't guessed by now, me and Ryan just had sex and.. And I know exactly how I feel about him now. I just don't know if I want to get into any of that. I don't think my multiple personalities could handle that. I don't know if I can handle that. Just doing it with him that one time brought back some memories I never want to see for the rest of my life.. But there were also positives of it. I won't list them off but I wouldn't mind living with them. I'm just scared. I'm scared he's going to turn out like Felix.

"Echo please. Stop running away from me." Ryan's voice sounds from beside me.

I look up to see him looking down at me. I turn my gaze back to the snowy ground beneath me. He sighs.

"I can't." I mumble.

"Please Echo. You can't tell me you didn't feel something." He tries.

I shake my head.

"You're right Ryan. I can't say I didn't feel anything, because I did... But people run from what they fear Ry... And this is what scares me the most."
