I see the distant lights ahead
Another hour or so and i'll be back in bed
I guess I really thought i was gone for good
But you know I never could

I count the headlights passing by
But everyone I find another reason why
You'll be sound asleep and i'll look like a fool
How could i be so cruel

Only love could make me turn around
and make these tears
come tumbling down
Only love

Only love could make you stay with me
I doubt myself that you'd believe
Only Love

I wish i could be that strong
You see me as I am and love me right or wrong
I guess im still afraid to only say goodbye
So I keep it all inside

Only love
So I try to run but no matter what I do
I know it's true I can't go on without you

Dana sat in her car driving back to her and Andrew's house they shared together. After another huge fight which she had caused, she left him at the arena. Driving around for a few hours..ocasionally stopping to get out and think about things. Ocassionally she would wonder why Andrew stayed with her so long. She was a very moody person and didn't really think she deserved him at all. She really didn't know how to love someone...she question their relationship and even accused him of cheating a few times so maybe he would give up on her and leave. Yea she cared about Andrew very much..one could say they even loved eachother. It was plainly obvious Andrew treated her like a goddess, but Dana had a hard time with relationships and love. It mainly stemmed from her childhood. She grew up in a loving family, her family was all together still. Her mother was a little to over protective..always telling her that she loved her. Dana just had a hard time expressing her feeling so she shrugged off alot of it.


::One Week Earlier::

"Hi baby" Andrew said comming up behind Dana and hugging her.
"Hi Andrew" Dana said.

"Baby?"
"Yea Drew?"
"Love me?"
"You know I care about you Drew why are you asking me this?" Dana said.
"Because you never say it. Your extremely guarded..like your afraid. And caring about someone is differant from loving someone Dana." Andrew said turning around and walking away.
Dana looked over her shoulder as Drew walked away.
"Damnit.."

"Hey Test!" Adam called.
Adam ran to catch up with Drew who was walking away looking pretty pissed.
"Hey man what's wrong?" Adam asked.
"Nothing..it's just Dana." Drew said.
"Yea...I see how she treats you sometimes man. Maybe you too should call it quits before your friendship gets ruined." Adam said.
"I can't man..I love her. I just don't think she loves me..she never says it." Drew said.
"Don't get down about it, you can get any chick you want you don't have to take her crap." Adam said.
"I don't want just any chick..I want Dana." Drew said looking down and walking away.

Dana sat in the ladies dressing room picking at a bagel she got from the catering room. No one was around..seems it's been like that for awhile now. People didn't really go out of their way to speak to her anymore even though she used to be very friendly with everyone and talked to everyone backstage. That is until everyone seen how she acted towards Drew and saw the real Dana.

Adam burst into the ladies lockerroom and walked right up to Dana who looked up.

"You! You are the most inconsiderate self centered little brat i've ever seen. Drew loves you to death and you treat him like trash. I for one don't see why he stays with your worthless ass! Your nothing but a bitch you know that?" Adam said.
Dana was quiet for a few seconds before looking down at her hands.
"Get out Adam.."
"Excuse me? No I won't get out! Why are you treating him like this?!" Adam asked.
"I said get out of her now!" Dana said getting up and pushing Adam out the dressing room.

Dana sat in the dressing room crying for a few minutes before grabbing her bag and walking out into the hall.

"Dana where are you going?" Drew yelled after her.
"Im leaving the arena..im going home." Dana said over her shoulder.
"Dana..baby what's wrong? Stop and talk to me."
"It's nothing Drew! Look maybe we should just be friends..this isn't working out." Dana said with her back facing Andrew.
"Why Dana? I love you..why do you do this to me?" Drew asked.
Dana looked over towards Adam who was watching and listening to the whole thing giving her dirty looks.
Dana snapped back into reality. At this point she was totally pissed at Adam so she took it out on Drew.
"Because Drew! It's just me..it's how I feel, how I act. You can't deal with that so it's not..going to work.." Dana said walking out the door.


::Present Time::

She had been gone for a week. She talked to Trish yesterday. Trish tried her best to get her to come back and atleast talk to Drew. It hurt Dana so much to know Andrew missed her alot. Trish said he really didn't talk to anyone about it..except her only because Trish was her best friend and he knew they still talked. Trish was the only one that really understood Dana..why she was like this. Trish told her that Drew took a few days off and went back to their house..maybe thinking Dana would be their. She wasn't though.

Dana pulled into the driveway and turned the car off. She sat their for about 10 minutes before getting out.

She walked into the house quietly and walked around the house looking for Drew. She knew he was here..his car was parked out front.

She walked around the corner to the kitchen and saw Drew sitting at the kitchen table with his head in his hands crying. Dana walked quietly over to the table and stood next to him. she waited a few seconds then reached out and pushed a strand of hair out of his face.
Drew jumped back a little..unsure of who was touching him.
When he saw it was Dana he stood their for a few seconds and looked at her.
"I'm sorry Drew" Dana said crying.

Drew walked over to her and took her in his arms.
"I missed you" Drew said.

"I'm so sorry Drew. I've been such a bitch towards you. You deserve so much more then me. It's just..I can't live without you. This past week has been aweful. I love you Andrew..and I truely mean that. Before I was so scared of loving someone..I was scared you were going to leave me and i'd be broken. I didn't want that to happen so I pushed you away." Dana said.

"I know Dana..Trish told me yesterday. It's ok..everything is ok now?" Andrew asked.
"Yes." Dana said.

"I love you Dana" Drew said.
"I love you Andrew" Dana said.
"Show me.." Drew said kissing Dana's neck.

The next morning Dana awoke tangled in a mess of sheets and in Drew's arms. She casually pushed a strand or shiney blond hair from Drew's face.
Andrew opened his eyes and looked at Dana.
"Love me.."
"Forever.." Dana said and layed back in his arms.
