I wanted someone to believe me. I already knew it was real. What happened in Ordinary happened. There was no accidentally explosion. Just ... some spooky shit and then a government cover up. No one believed me. They all think it's a story I made up to handle losing Mom, Dad, Dylan... everyone.

Physical proof helps. It's just not the validation I was looking for.

[ Her forehead gently rests against his. Have they done that before? It feels like they have. ] I wanted... I wanted to be with you again. If that means being in the dark and fighting to bring us both home? Okay. That's what I'm going to do.

[ It's not just that. It's this... whatever it is that is trying to be Alan. I want it gone. Away. It's not him. I want HIM. It won't go away. It's like this ... this cloud or blanket I can't get off of me. It only felt like it was gone when I found Alan.

When she asked how to find him.

Jesse easily slips out from underneath the blanket. She presses fully to him again. Skin on skin, hips to hips, forehead to forehead. She wants to feel that place again only they seem to exist in. Just the two of them. Maybe she can't feel it without Polaris, but, she has to be able to try. If Alan comes home and Polaris is never there again... it's up to her.

Not that Alan would be coming home without her. She isn't leaving him here.

Eyes drift downwards again. That pull inside her demands to be with him. ]
