"I answered your question."

"But you know what I meant."

"Yep. I did know."

2015-10-07 08:01:18

"..." You little shit.

I grinned.

I woke up. I didn't want to, but I woke up. And it still hurt. I didn't open my eyes. I didn't want to. That was one thing I could still control. But I did reach up to my chest to find out the current state of my heart. ...ow. Still broken.

Terezi shifted on the couch. She made her way over there as quick as she could, and stayed just in case the psycho bitch decided to make a second appearance. It seemed like she didn't, and it was morning now. So that was taken care of. She looked over, and noticed Seculus had woke. "Hey." She greeted softly.

🌀

Don't cry. "......hello," I choked. "When did....you get here?"

2015-10-07 08:23:21

●

"Shortly after you fainted from what I've been told."

2015-10-07 08:24:31

🌀

"....oh." Finally, I opened my eyes. It was...bright. "Sorry. Did...did you stitch me up?"

2015-10-07 08:28:45

●

"Yeah. I did." She paused for a moment. "Anndrea told me what happened and...I'm really sorry that Ivory betrayed you like that."

2015-10-07 08:30:34

🌀

"................." I put my wrist over my eyes. "No, you....you were right.....all along.......she never really............" Don't cry. It'll just hurt more.

2015-10-07 08:32:06

●

"...Yeah, I know." She looked. "I hate to tell you 'I told you so'...but I did."

2015-10-07 08:38:11

🌀

"....I thought for sure she did, I don't......know what I was thinking.......how anyone could............"

2015-10-07 08:39:59

●

"anyone could...?"

2015-10-07 08:41:41

🌀

Stop. "....................care about me that much........platonically...............or....." .......at all.

2015-10-07 08:44:29

●

"...Oh." Ivory really had him fooled, didn't she.

2015-10-07 08:46:09

🌀

Had me...fooled.....too think, she'd been faking it all that time. And for what? To laugh at my reaction now? I couldn't. Tears wet my wrist, hidden away. The tips of my fingers started turning blue as it got cold, and I clenched my fist to conceal that too.

At that moment, Anndrea walked back into the room, warm cup of tea in her hand. She set it down on the table,and pushed it towards Seculus before sitting down next to him. "Drink." She instructed.

2015-10-07 08:51:39

🌀

I waited a moment, until I could get my eyes dry, then propped myself up on my elbows with a wince and reached for the mug. Upon touching it, the blue went away.....love. Made with love. How could she have possibly faked /that/? No. Stop thinking about it. You'll just make it worse on yourself. "....thank you." I sipped the tea.

●

"You are most welcome." Anndrea spoke, then looked to Terezi. "Anything on her whereabouts?"

"Wherever she is, Lance is refusing to tell me." Terezi answered.

2015-10-07 08:56:34

🌀

I didn't interrupt. Just sipped the tea. Maybe Lance didn't know. Maybe he knew what they would do if they found her. What would you do? I....I don't know. Try desperately to forgive her, probably. Inevitably fail.

2015-10-07 09:00:12

●

"Oh." Anndrea spoke. "We'll find her."

"I hope so."

The stitches set in. I healed at least enough to be up and about. My sweater was ruined. That almost hurt more than everything else, if only because it was the physical representation of everything I'd lost in the space of five minutes. And it was my last thing from before...before /everything/. Now it was gone. There was no going back to how things had once been. Had there ever been? Of all the times I needed a constant, warm hug, it was now. On an aimless wander, I'd bought a jacket with a design seemingly based off the ace of hearts card. I didn't really care what it looked like. It was thick, soft, at least on the inside, and fairly cheap. After I did this....it wasn't quite as good, but it was a substitute.....I went to Lance. I don't know why. I wanted...closure, I don't know. To find out if he had been aware the whole time, maybe. To find out if she was still out hurting people. That or having fun with her /real/ friends. I pushed the door open, eye catching on the red sleeve. I might have to get used to that if I'm going to be this jumpy now. I wasn't used to wearing anything other than gray and white. Maybe...a little color would be nice. Bring some life to my dreary existence. As if simple decor could do that.

For once, it was just Clarenz there. Only Clarenz. At first, when the door opened he made a quick grab for a knife that was on the counter, but set it down once he saw who it actually was. Lets just say Ivory paid a visit here too last night. "....Hi.' He greeted.
