He snapped. He stood up and grabbed her by the hair. "I'M GOING TO FUCKING THROW YOU OUT INTO THE STREET NAKED TO FEND FOR YOURSELF, YOU EMPTY-HEADED BITCH, YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT!"

She grunted as he pulled her hair. "I HAD TO BE WITH HIM FOR 20 GOD DAMN YEARS OF COURSE I DO! YOU'RE THE ONE WHO THOUGHT HE WAS HOT!"

"YOU'RE A STUPID--PIECE OF--FUCKING SHIT AND YOU DESERVE EVERYTHING YOU GOT!" He filled every pause with a heavy blow to her abdomen before he dropped her and left the apartment, taking the pills with him and dumping them down the gutter on the way out.

Ivory knocked on the door to Madison's and Seculus's apartment. She needed out of that house. She needed to be away from Ren. Plus, she wanted to make sure Madison was okay.

🌀

I opened the door and smiled at her. "Hello, darling...are you okay?" Out of the house? What happened?

2016-06-20 06:14:58

●

"I'm okay. Ren just well...still isn't taking the whole Madison thing well. I'm sure you're aware of that though."

2016-06-20 06:15:52

🌀

"....yes, I am. He's been getting extra sleep, he's feeling a bit better now."

2016-06-20 06:16:47

●

"Oh thank God. I was afraid he got /really/ hurt."

2016-06-20 06:17:32

🌀

"He's still tired, of course, I don't think he'll be needing stitches, though. Or a blood transfusion. ...he's in bed now. Would you like to see him?"

2016-06-20 06:21:37

●

"Yes. Please." She took his hand.

2016-06-20 06:22:18

🌀

I closed the door and tugged her inside. .....to stay away from Ren. Was it /that/ bad? I would've thought she'd want to stay and keep an eye on them. "Tell me if you smell blood, the bite marks keep coming open again and sometimes it takes us a while to notice."

2016-06-20 06:27:30

●

"...I don't...smell it anymore. Unless it's you, that is."

2016-06-20 06:28:35

🌀

".....no. It isn't. That's good." I opened Madison's bedroom door. It looked like he'd fallen asleep since I'd last checked on him.

2016-06-20 06:31:03

●

She looked inside. "...Should I speak to him later?" It looked like he needed the rest.

2016-06-20 06:34:26

🌀

"I'm not sure...." I called his name softly. He rolled over and yawned. ...the bandage was still in place. Good. He rubbed the bridge of his nose and opened his eyes a little. "...is it time for work?...." "...no, and you're not going to work today anyways. I've called you in sick several shifts ahead, remember?" "....oh, right. What is it, then?" "Ivory's here." He immediately sat up more. "Oh. Ivory. Hi."

2016-06-20 06:45:08

●

Oh. Works for her. "Hey." She sat down at the edge of his bed. "How are you feeling?"

2016-06-20 06:46:42

🌀

"Uh...okay, I guess. I still get a little lightheaded if I move too quickly. So it probably isn't the best time to be carrying around stacks of plates. How's home?"

2016-06-20 06:48:45

●

"It's...well..." Not great.

2016-06-20 06:49:32

🌀

"....is it still bad between you two?"

2016-06-20 06:49:58

●

"Yes."

2016-06-20 06:52:13

🌀

I reached over and tugged her toward me. "...sorry about that." I doubt it would've gotten that bad if I hadn't tried to talk to them.

2016-06-20 06:53:24

●

"It's okay." She hugged him "It was bound to happen."

2016-06-20 06:55:54

🌀

"Not necessarily."

2016-06-20 06:56:27

●

"Well nothing was going to change their mind, so..."

2016-06-20 06:56:49

🌀

"...maybe not /nothing/."
