Character(s): Ayame Natsuri & Ren Yukio Time: 3:30pm Location: Ayame's Dorm
Slowly walking toward her dorm, he was drowning in his own thoughts. Just a few minutes ago he was completely furious - but now, all he felt was sadness. Why would she do that to me? This being the second time sneaking into the girl's dorm, he had nothing to fear and quietly knocked on her door.
"...Ayame, Open up. We need to talk."

The room was silent, side from the ticking of the clock on the wall, and the sound of her own heart, which was racing. Mayumi was out, probably giving that Kakeru kid "piano lessons" again. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Had Mayumi forgotten her key?
Ayame sat up, and swung her legs over the side. "One second." she called, standing up.
"...Ayame, Open up. We need to talk." That voice. She stopped dead in her tracks.
She ran to the door and pulled it open. Sure enough, Ren stood in the doorway, his hair a mess, and his clothes a bit more rugged than usual. "Ren?"

His eyes widened as he finally saw his girlfriend that he missed the past couple days. His shocked expression quickly turned into a sad one, and he nodded slowly. "Yeah. It's me." He looked down and pushed her back gently so he could come in and closed the door behind him. He sighed, knowing he didn't want this time to come.
Trying not to beat around the bush, he looked her straight in the eye and gave her a murderous glare. "Who the fuck is this Sora kid?"

Just when she was about to put her arms around his neck, and welcome him back with a kiss, an aura of anger stopped her. His eyes were cold and serious, and there was no excited smile on his face to match hers. She frowned.
"Who the fuck is this Sora kid?"
Her eyes widened, and then she sighed. "Who told you?" she muttered. Damn it.

"Kettaro." He raised his eyebrows and pushed her away, not wanting to be near her at all. "God fucking damnit, Ayame. How long has it been? A few weeks we've been together and you're already fucking around with guys behind my back!?" Now the anger that he felt a while ago was coming back.

"Kettaro."
At this point, she was too angry with herself to care about what Kettaro said or did. It was probably the right thing anyway.
"God fucking damnit, Ayame. How long has it been? A few weeks we've been together and you're already fucking around with guys behind my back!?"
Her fingertips twitched slightly, the way they would if you were trying to force yourself not to curl them into fists. However, in this case, it was a nervous habit. She had to think; get things in order.
"It's not like that," she sighed, opening the door further. "Please let's not do this in the hallway again."
Ayame took a step back, her legs getting numb. "I didn't know if you'd come back." she whispered, her voice cracking and shaking. No, you can't cry. This is your fault, so you can't, you have no reason to. "But that's no excuse." she finished. After building up the strength to, she looked him in the eyes. "Ren, I love you. I always will. What I did was wrong, but I could never love anyone more than I love you." Tears came to her eyes, but she blinked them away. "I almost lost you enough times, and I'll do whatever it takes to fix this. I refuse to lose you again, especially for something so stupid."
She stared at him and just breathed heavily for a second. "This was my fault, and I'll atone for it somehow, but..." Her voice quieted. "Don't say you don't love me anymore."

Ren couldn't believe what he was hearing, so he just rolled his eyes. "I beat that kid up." He mumbled as he put his hand behind his neck. "He said that you were going to break up with me." Ren's eyes narrowed, watching her tears drop, and for once - not doing anything about it. "Why? What the fuck did I do?" He sighed and turned around to face the door. "Do you know why I was gone, Ayame?" An awkward silence grew, and soon small tears came from his eyes. "Thomas died." He turned around quickly and pushed her against a wall - getting ready to yell at her. "AND COMING BACK TO THIS DOESN'T HELP AT ALL." He pounded his fist against the wall, wiping away his own tears.
"If breaking up is what you want, then fine. We're done. I don't have the patience to deal with you and your involvement with other blonde faggots that only wanted to get near you so they could get in your pants." He started laughing at himself - he was being so pathetic. This whole situation was pathetic. "If you didn't want to be together then you could've just said so at the beginning, Ayame."

Just before she could explain what she told Sora, he said the last thing she expected to hear. "Thomas died."
"He... what?" She could have sworn her heart stopped beating. She suddenly hated herself more than anything, but felt unworthy of any emotions. Thomas was the closest thing Ren ever had to real family. And now...he was gone. She fell to her knees, unable to make sense of anything. The boy she was in love with was in tears in front of her, pitching a breakup, but none of it made sense.
"If you didn't want to be together then you could've just said so at the beginning, Ayame."
She practically leapt off the floor, and locked her arms around his chest. "NO!" she screamed. He struggled against her, but she kept holding onto him. "I don't care if you fight me, or try to push me off, I refuse to let you go again. Not being with you was something we had to deal with for ten years, and I'm not going back to that. We got through enough shit together, what makes you think that's going to stop now?" She pulled away, and put her hands on either side of his face again, the same way she did in the Ferris wheel when they confessed to each other. "We're all each other's got, Ren. And if I didn't love you... I wouldn't do this." she said, and getting on her toes as high as they would go, and kissing him, just like every other time, like it would be the last time. And how ironic it was that it really could be.

Ren quickly pushed her away as soon as he realized they were kissing - "Ayame, stop it." He said firmly as he held her by the shoulders. "This isn't something you can forget with just a fucking kiss!" He glared at her and slowly backed away. "What the fuck were you doing with him anyway? How do I know you won't go around doing that again once I let you out of my fucking sight?" Ren was getting frustrated. "I can't believe the situation I'm in. How many times have we talked about 'loving' each other, and there not being anyone else?" All the memories at the ferris wheel were replaying in his head, not being able to stop them. "God, I can't even... leave you alone and you do this? You know how possessive I am and..." He punched the wall once again not being able to put his angry feelings into words that could help her understand how sad and disappointed he felt. "I just can't take this from you right now, Ayame. Everything hurts."

"I just can't take this from you right now, Ayame. Everything hurts."
He didn't even sound angry anymore. Well, to most people, he would sound angry, spiteful, everything in that category, but to her, he sounded sad, and betrayed, as he should. She wanted to jsut explain everything that happened, but now wasn't really the time or place. After all, being with another guy at all was bad enough, the details would just make it worse. It all came down to one thing.
"...Are you breaking up with me?" she asked softly, staring at the ground. Her arms hung limp at her sides, and her eyes were red, but dry. She probably ran out of tears.

He clenched his fists. She finally asked the question that he didn't have the answer to. He had so many reasons to break up with her - yet they seemed like they weren't enough. That didn't change the fact he felt betrayed, but Ayame as a person made up for it. He shrugged. "I don't know. Are you going to cheat on me again?"

"I don't know. Are you going to cheat on me again?"
She sighed. "Of course not." she whispered, shaking her head. As much as she still wanted to explain what happened, she felt that this was enough. She smiled through her tears, which suddenly started to spill again. This was her last chance, which she didn't deserve, and she was willing to do anything to not mess it up.

"Tell me what happened." Ren said as he sat down on her bed, preparing for the worst. "Even I know you wouldn't cuddle with just any guy." He rolled his eyes, knowing that by just hearing the story he would explode. But he wanted to give it a try. "Now spill, before I leave and never talk to you again."

"Now spill, before I leave and never talk to you again."
She smirked, and sat next to him. "He was a smooth talker, that's for sure," She sighed, falling back onto the bed. "He asked me to cuddle with him, which, I guess I always wanted you to do..." she mumbled nervously. "It wasn't fun though. It was awkward and uncomfortable, and the whole time I couldn't think about anything but you..." she smiled bitterly, if that even was possible. As she lay there, she just stared at his back, and remembered all the other times he walked away, and how she would do anything to never see him walk away again.
"Actually, for a while, I had my eyes closed, and I tried to pretend you were really there," she said, chuckling softly. "I was worried about you. At the moment, I wanted someone to tell me not to worry, and Sora did that. So, I hope you didn't beat him up just too badly..."

He didn't expect that kind of response at all. He twitched a bit and soon, laid down beside her and put his arms around her slowly. He laid there in silence, not sure what words to say - scared of saying the wrong things. "....The kid's probably crying in the Nurse's Office.." Ren said quietly as he laughed to himself, thinking he did a good job. "Look, Ayame. Leaving you without saying anything was probably a bad thing on my part, but that doesn't mean you didn't have any other way of contacting me." With his arms still around her, he closed his eyes a bit.
"I needed you, Ayame. I really, really needed you the past few days."
