"I guess this is the idea of being forever yours, just tonight."
"I want to remember this night forever, I want to remember this till I see you again. So don't think of it like I'm playing games. I mean it."
"You know I can't hold you forever and if you do decide to find someone else... I'm not gonna stop you. You deserve the best."
"Okay..."Mona says quietly looking down at her jeans.
Craig gets up from the couch and walks away slowly to the mini bar to grab himself a beer. As he open up hisbottle he walks out of the room sitting down on the hallway bench thinking about how much he is gonna miss having fun here and being with a complete stranger whohe ended up growing attach to, 'I'mnot gonna see her for a long time.' Craig thought to himself.Mona looks up atthe doorand sighs, trying to let go of everything she has in her, trying to act like nothing is there for her to grab onto. No one can truely understand how she felt, she wanted to hold him, she wanted him to know how she feels. Knowing him and the band mates little by little in sucha small amount oftime began to crush her.
She looked down at the pieces of strand of her pants and started pulling them one strand at a time. As Mona's eyes began to water up she looks at the time and notices that she needs to leave and do something to get her mind off everything. As she grabbed her things she walked out the room and looked at Craig and seen him a little red faced.
"Are you okay? You don't look so good." Mona says while feeling his face temperature.
Craig grabbed Monas hand and kissed them. She was confused for a little while till he looked up again.
"I'm fine" as he clears his throat, "Are you leaving?"
"Yeah, umm. I got a call -- from David and he wants me in, so I'm going to work." She lies as she tires to not give eye contact. Craig lets go of her hand and sets his on his lap.
"Are you still gonna go?" He says looking up at her.
:"Of course Craig. I'll make sure to stop in before you go on, I promise."
Craig smiled and looked down again at his feet. Mona was lost for words after that and began to walk away as she closed her eyes and sighed to control herself.
