He knows damn well you have a Fear shield - Jordan clenched his teeth on the immediate impulse to reply. To defend. He took a slow breath. "I would have," he said. "I do believe your motivations and your intent. I believe that you're telling me the truth as you see it. But if you're determined to believe that the fact that he's my boyfriend makes me totally blind to all other factors, I expect that that's not going to change your mind about anything." He shoved down the urge to explain, to pacify, to discuss. Hell, at this point it wasn't going to get anything useful done anyway. Everything she said was raising his hackles, making him feel prickly and defensive, and sooner or later, probably sooner, that automatic and emotional reaction was going to send this conversation tumbling over into a fight. He needed to get out of the kitchen. He pushed away from the sink and strode towards the door. "I'll stop imposing on your good will now," he said icily.

"Fine. Ta..take care'a yerself, okay." Ofelia. . .wasn't goin' to fight back, she wasn't going to call him an a*****e the way she had at her brother after their fight. Everything was flashing before her eyes now, every last bit of it just the same, and the teen wanted to both laugh and cry at how ridiculous it all was. The person she'd trusted the most, the person she'd enjoyed the most company time with, was turning their back to her as well.
It's all your fault you know. Rue didn't get a denial. Everyone here would be better off if you were gone. Just another person driven crazy by the island, wandering off to some fate unknown. Ofelia didn't argue that either. All she could see, looking at Jordan, was a blurry face that might have belong to her brother. The anger, the rage. The accusations that lead to her burning down the barn and burning down the school.
She started to cry, and it startled and disgusted her. Rep had said tears and vomiting were the sign of a weak woman, actions used to get what they wanted when nothing else worked. Ofelia didn't want that, she just. . . this was a pointless waste of time. Her anger, her rage, it was all done. This was her fault, all her fault like Rue had said.
Well then, when he leaves we'll leave too. Get you somewhere nice and alone. Perhaps you can die there and no one will find you. Again, Rue wasn't denied.
"Ju...no, never mind. Be happy, okay." She brushed the tears from her eye and face before smiling faintly and briefly. The end of it though was she stepped to the side so Jordan could get out, wondering if this would be the last time she saw him of her own accord.

She was crying. Half of him wanted to stop, apologize, comfort her if she would accept it. The other half flared up in furious rejection; this was manipulation, a sympathy ploy, just another way to wear him down. He wanted to hurt her. He'd already hurt her. Cowardly and shameful and disgusting. He paused at the door, fighting with himself. Then he stepped out into the hall, saying nothing, not looking back.

Ofelia watched Jordan go, just as she knew he would, and she started to move to clean up everything. It just wouldn't do for her to leave the kitchen like this, she needed to. . . . why couldn't she see straight? Why was everything getting all blurry, like she was under water. . . ?
A few tear drops splattered onto the ground, making the flour gross and sticky, and before Ofelia could stop herself she started to wail. She collapsed to her knees, hands rubbing her eyes as best they could and doing nothing but making her disgusting and dirty. The wails continued, along with the sobs.
This was it. She'd lost it all, she was back to how it had been that night. She needed to go, she needed to leave. There was nothing left here for her, not even that person who had loved to bake with her. Ofelia was nothing, this island was nothing.
I'm glad you finally understand, there's nothing left for you~ Let's get this place cleaned up and then get you off somewhere to die. I've got a future partner just waiting for me~Prolixity That...went pretty much how I thought it would go XD;;; wtg ofelia, you've lost your only friend. thanks for playing though! sorry for it ;;; (unless for some reason you want to continue somehow ahahaha)
