The all ready blurry, red eyes began to tear up again at his comment. Great, now I'm hurting someone else. His eyes were one thing she couldn't look at. She didn't like seeing his eyes concerned. They were too amazing for things like that, expecially caused by her. "Nothing. It's just a lot of things aren't going well as of late." Now it was her turn to not be completely honest. There was a lie in there. Not eye contact was made as she looked down instead of at the teen infront of her.

Hal sighs and suddenly reaches over to wrap his arms around her, "I wasn't lying first of all when I told you about that offer, that came from Cordain, I was just lazy about letting you know, he's been waiting a good week for me to ask."
He closed his eyes, he didn't like Isdra being in pain, he figured that one out quickly, and he really didn't know what to do so he was improvising. He frowned suddenly, his face hidden from Isdra's by the hug. Something in his mind showing him bad images.

She couldn't handle a hug right now. Not right now. "No." Pushing him away, Isdra stepped back a bit, hugging herself a bit. "Not right now. Not now." If she was hugged she'd start crying and if she started crying she wouldn't stop. Too much was going on at the moment and she was too emotionally unstable. The only thing she could do was look away and out that window. That helped none.
A young boy, only about 5 or 6 walked by. It's one of them. Her eyes grew wide and she looked away again, everything getting a little worse. "Please... Understand... It's not you. Everything reminds me of things and... it hurts." She brought her hands to her eyes, interwining them with her bands.

"Isdra I...I understand I've...been having nightmares...I think from my past life..." he muttered to her quietly as he folded his arms and looked down at the floor.

Looking up, Isdra was a bit shocked, "I...I'm sorry." Again, she hide hre face in her hands, this time sitting in her chair. "I... didn't even ask what had been up with you. I'm horrible. And don't tell me otherwise if you're going to. I didn't even consider asking what had been up with you." Nothing was going well. Nothing. Her hopes had been that this would be a nice evening. They could have a good time and everything would be better for a bit. "Everything.... everything is broken now..."

"Nothing's broken, sure something slipped your mind but Isdra...didn't we both kind of forget any ideas we had when we saw each other and just kind of played our date by ear so far?" he sat down next to her and folded his hands in his lap.
"Honestly, I wasn't sure I wanted to say anything, didn't know if it would put too much on you or not...to have you worrying about some dreams...waking and sleeping..."

"Don't think I can just 'forget'... There's too much... Too much change. To much of everything. You don't understand... There is so...soooo much... Everything is broken." It was getting to her, she was starting to breakdown. The pressure of everything was starting to get to her. "..." There was nothing she could say any more. There was just so much to think about. Halcyon had problems, she didn't want to burden him with her own problems so she stayed quiet.

Halcyon watched her for a moment, "Start telling me Isdra...I want to help...I'm hoping that if I help you with yours I'll be able to forget or ignore mine...or figure out how to handle them better if I don't spend all my time concentrating on just my problems...Please Isdra, I'm you're boyfriend right? Let me help however I can..."

"I... I don't want you to get hurt... Which you could. It's not your problem to get hurt over. It's mine. I won't help with your problems at all, just probably give you more to deal with."

Halcyon wrapped his arms around Isdra and held her close, speaking quietly into her ear, "I want to help you Isdra, I want to do whatever I can to help you be happy...like when we were at the beach..."

Her eyes started to swell as he held her, but she still wouldn't let herself cry. She couldn't let him know how much was wrong. "No Halcyon... I don't want you to get hurt." It was little more than a whisper as she weighed her options. Either let him know and ease her pain a bit, but have him possibly get hurt; or not tell him and have him be safe. Pushing away she decided with the later. "Really... I don't want you to get hurt..."

He watches her, "...Isdra, do you think I'm not going to be hurt by you pushing me away? But not letting me help and be apart of your life, the good and the bad of it?" Halcyon responded, in fact he was already looking a little hurt that she didn't trust him.

A small gasp escaped Isdra, but she looked away, "...You would probably never tell me if someone was after you..." It was almost a silent comment, but it hit hard. As much as she was trying to get him to stop questioning her, she felt that it held some truth, too. It was something that she had always wanted to clear up, but not like this.

He looked down then back up at Isdra, looking her in the eyes, "I've been having nightmares about killing women...slowly, surgically killing them...they're all around your age or older and it's a different woman each night...sometimes more than one..."

Eye contact was made for the first time in almost the entire conversation, but was quickly love. It turns out a heart does crack after so much... That simple, brave heart ache made her finally start crying, then bailing. Pulling her legs up, she put herself into an extreme fetal postion. Head between her legs, arms in between her head and knees, hands dug into her hair. "There's.... there's... so much...."
