Antonio sighed and headed inside to get ready.

"You are to move in with your aunt in one week, unless you give me a reason otherwise." He called for the next case, and Antonio stood there for a moment, shocked about what he just heard.

When he got home, he just sat on the steps, still in his suit, Garth beside him. Garth whimpered, sensing something was wrong. He rubbed his head, and sat there waiting for Paradise to come by so he could tell her the bad news.

           After school, Paradise usually stayed with her friends and talked a bit. Made plans for what to do on the weekend. But today, Paradise avoided them. For the first time in a while, she just wanted to be alone. And think. About Antonio.

            She quickly walked home, the long way. So she could p*censored* by Antonio's house. When she got there, after about 5 minutes, she ran to the porch steps, and saw the sad look on Antonio's face. Oh no... She sat next to him. "Antonio...?" It wasn't really a question, it was more of knowing the answer, but still hoping it would randomly change. Her face started to squinch up, holding in crying.

           Paradise sat in shock for a moment. Not really because of the kiss. Yet she expected to be more surprised then what she was, with that. She was more shocked as too this actually happening. When she heard him say 'Good bye Paradise', it really hit her hard. She sat on the steps for a couple more minutes. Wiping tears that slipped down her face, but then realized by staying at his house, it wasn't going to make her feel any better. She sniffled as she got up, and ran home. Ignoring any stare's from neighbor's that she knew or not knew.

           She was really getting sick of this crying. Ever since she met Antonio, she had just felt pain, and always crying. And she never felt so much pain, then she had right now. She planned on just crying herself to sleep, not doing any homework, not going to school tomorrow, just sleeping. Staying in her bed, and being miserable. Because without Antonio, that was all she was. Miserable. 

Antonio had no energy, he just sat in bed, and tried not to cry. He knew his depression was worsening, but there was nothing he could do. He didn't want to go to school, to see Paradise, in the sense, considering. He sat, there replaying everything that had happened from the moment he met her. He smiled slightly, recalling all the goods things that had happened, but that quickly faded when all the bad started surfacing.

The next morning, Antonio awoke, and didn't move. He just lay there, thinking, miserable. He had no desire to do anything. He barely got out of bed to use the bathroom, then he just crawled back under the covers. His eye finally dry from the constant tear-flow.

           The next morning, Paradise ignored her alarm clock. Ignored the voice inside her head telling her to wake up, and get ready for school. And ignoring the time. She didn't care if she missed or was late for school. She just didn't care. She'll get up when she felt like it. Which was probably not any time soon. 

            Paradise rolled over in her bed once, to turn off the ringing alarm clock, but other then that. She stayed perfectly still. At that moment, she really wished she had Antonio's cell phone number. So she could talk to him. See how HE was doing. Plan to see eachother once in a while. When she realized that it was a good thing she didn't have his number. Talking to him wouldn't make it any easier. He should just leave. With not another painful good bye to her. It would just hurt even more.  

Antonio took a shower, thinking about his devious plan. He chuckled, finally feeling better than he had. But he grew grim, realizing his plan might work. Maybe. Hopefully. He sighed and got out and got dressed. He needed to find Paradise, he needed her help with the plan. With that, he went to find someone who could give him her address.

Antonio knocked on the door, after asking several people, and translating a paper into braille, he hoped he had the right address. He knocked three times, praying it was her house.

((Um, I need a plan for Antonio now. DX))

(( Wait...You don't have the plan yet? BAHAHAHAHA! ))

         Paradise frowned when she heard the door being knocked. The last thing she needed was to talk to someone. She groaned, and tiredly got out of her bed. Then grabbed her robe, and didn't bother fixing her hair. Right now, she didn't care how she looked. She only wanted to impress Antonio. And if she was never going to see him again, then what was the point of doing her best to 'look good'?

          She rolled her eyes, before opening the door. Planning to act miserable. But the second she saw the face of the guy she needed to see, she smiled, and wrapped her arms around his kneck. "Antonio! What are you doing here?" She asked, sighing of relief as she held him tighter, and closing her eyes. Enjoying Antonio as much as she could.

(( bahaha, I was like soooo waiting for you to respond XD So I got really excited in me chair, when I saw that you did <3 ))

Paradise smiled at him, and hugged him again. "Of course!" She said smiling, holding him tighter before letting go, and asking, "But...What do I have to do with it? How do I help?"  

(( Sorry...Short post DX))
