:::Looking at the floor, trying to hold back tears, but still they came:::
Tacitus please...
:::But what she was pleading didn't come out...she just wanted something else to be happening, that was all she could think of:::

Then what is it you want from me? You asked me if I had something to say to you. A reason why Cora fell in love with me? No. I don't have that answer. An apology? What do I have to apologize for? I've not wronged you. Condolences? I know it must be painful for you to see, but I'm not a condencending b*****d. I refuse to look down on the pain you feel. What more is there? There is nothing for me to say to you. Be angry, but be angry at what deserves your anger! Blame God. Blame fate. Blame Tavin. But please, leave us in peace. There's no reason you should cause anyone else misery. Find a way to deal with your own instead.

Tac started towards the door, grabbing his key and looking back, "I'm fully aware of all that bullshit. I don't hate you, Alex, but I sure as hell can't take out my anger on her world, this place, or anyone else, but you, well, you're the closest one to ground zero right now." The door was swung wide as his gaze fell back to Cora, "Until you're ready..." With that he was gone.

:::When the door shut behind him, Cora put her hands to her face, her knees shaking a bit, but she was stull standing... she let out a breathe, and it turned into a shiver:::

*Alex walked over to Cora, put his hand on her shoulder*
Cora... Cora? Jesus, Cora. You look... mortified!

:::She promptly hid her face in his shoulder. The girl had no idea what to be feeling at the moment, but it was pretty dreadful. Just when she thought emotions couldn't be anymore confusing:::
Alex... I'm so sorry...

I... I don't know...
:::She melted... it was more like that than just falling apart so long as Alex was there:::
I just... it feels so bad... I don't why...

*Alex whispered in her ear*
Hey.. hey... its okay, its alright.
*He gave her the biggest smile he could muster*
What.. what did he do to you, Cora? To make you like this?

:::She whimpered:::
It was all a mistake... he... he changed so much. When I came back, I didn't recognize him. He wasn't the same person...but he was, and he... he let me think it was someone else. He told me that Tacitus was dead, and I believed him... but it was him all along... And...and then you came along, and I started to forget... I didn't want to think about that anymore...
:::She paused to sniffle, and take another breathe:::
He told me the truth finally, but I didn't know what to think anymore... I told him it couldn't be the same again...

Wait... he lied to you? He told you he was dead? What kind of person does that to someone they love?
*Alex turned his nose in disgust*
What possible reason could he have for doing something like that?

He explained something...but I didn't understand...
:::She half squeeked:::
He said that he wasn't sure it was really me...

And so he lies to you. To make you feel miserable about him dying. Real nice guy.

No... :::she's still trying to defend him, but doesn't know what to think anymore:::
I... I don't know... Alex. Alex, please let's not. I don't want to think about it anymore. I don't want to...

Cora.. I only need to know one thing. He obviously isn't interested in sharing you with anyone else, and I don't think you want that kind of relationship either. Would you rather be with him than me? That's all I need to know.
