*She really didn't want to let him go. She really didn't but at the same time. It must've been something today that triggered this. Her heart almost felt empty again....but it was absurd because here she was right her holding the person she loved. She sighed* "I know you do."

"Honestly. . . What's wrong? I can tell something's not right Machante." He held her all the tighter. Willing her with the security of his arms around her to tell him.

*She sighed and closed her eyes.* "I seriously don't know. I am so out of it right now."

Tokuno sighed as well. He leaned his head forward and kissed her forehead softly. "Do you want to go home?" He sighed again. The thought wasn't pleasant to him.

*She looked at Tokuno, and then something hit her. Her mind was racing and she suddenly left his embrace and headed for the door.* "I'm sorry." *And she was out the door.*

Tokuno sighed again. He grabbed another bottle of water from the fridge and sat down.

Tokuno shifted uncomfortably at his desk. After Machante's adrupt departure the day before he had the feeling he had made a horrible mistake telling her the unrational, and horribly intense feelings he was feeling for her. He sighed for what had to be the thousandth time that day and through away yet another scroll he had disfigured and mutilated. His mind was away from his work and he was ruining more than he was making.

"Damned feelings." Tokuno muttered to himself after another botched scroll. He sighed in desperation and confusion. "Damned feelings." He muttered again. It was becoming a mantra for him.

Tokuno sighed softly. Glancing around at the horrendous mess that was his study he sighed even more. He pushed himself away from the desk and stood. In the amount of only a few minutes he had gathered the mess of ruined scrolls lining the floor and disposed of them. He capped all of the ink and stored it away in a drawer and gathered the books to return to the shelf. As he finished he glanced around the study and sighed once more. His eyes drifted over the two places that hid secrets in his home. The door to the scroll room, and the door to the basement. The basement was against the farthest wall and nestled safetly and secretly away. He only went down there in the worst of moods and he thought about it for today. Sighing once again he slumped at his desk and rubbed his temples.

"Such a wonderful feeling, and yet so damned confusing. Damned feelings." He muttered once more to himself. His mood was foul. His eyes downcast and heavy. "Damned feelings." He repeated once more. The mantra holding more and more true as time wove on.

"Damned feelings." He sighed and stood. His fingers slipped through his hair and he walked out of the door. His eyes cast down to the ground as he walked. His feet taking him in no particular direction. Just away.

The wall was cracked and broken. The emotions leaking out slowly. Tokuno held it all in as best he could. Putting it behind a wall of uncontrolled fury. Fury at himself for foolishly letting himself give into to such irrational and, while not completely unwanted, uneeded emotions.

Gohma slipped through the door of the study. A slight grin on his face. Despite it all, he was in a wonderful mood. As he noticed the look on Tokuno's face the grin slipped away. "You look horrid Tok. What the hell happened?"

"Go to hell!" Even as he said it a grin crept onto Tokuno's face and he swung around to embrace his cousin, no; Gohma was more his brother than his cousin. "Where've you been? Damn its been weeks again."

"Ah... You know... Hell and back." Gohma shrugged and his grin widened. "What about you?"
Gohma's question was met with sullen silence. "Damned feelings." Was all Tokuno would offer in way of answer.
"What do you mean by "damned feelings." You dolt? I don't read minds... " Gohma grinned again and clapped his cousin on the back.
"It doesn't matter." Tokuno had a cold glint to his eyes. His face hardened into an unreadable mask. "Just drop it Gohma."
"Fine, fine." Gohma raised his hands in defeat and walked into the kitchen. "You kept this place stocked? Or am I going to have to starve today?" He grinned and opened the fridge. As it was when he left, it was fully stocked. Pulling out some simple meal components he fixed it all quickly and sat to eat.
