No endings are happy. This one was very unhappy.

[keep_surviving]

[A very pretty teen is sat on the floor, holding her teared stained face in despair.]

Look just... Leave it, okay? Neither of us wanted this.

[Mun finally took the dive and read the last book in the series. Nobody was happy about it.]

I don't need this right now. Just leave me alone.

[Quietly slips in and sits next to her]

[giveadragonsomelove]

...Hey? You alright? [He knows it's a stupid question but it's one he can't help but ask given what he's seeing.]

[keep_surviving]

[Mutters through her hands.]

Fantastic. Best I've ever been. Though, I'm a bit of a compulsive liar.

[keep_surviving]

I don't need you here.

[giveadragonsomelove]

...Oookay. How about you try not lying then? I'm all ears if you want to talk. That's what this place is for and all that yo.

[badluckbabe]

I know.

But I'm here anyway.

[keep_surviving]

I think you missed the point of 'compulsive'. And the whole 'just leave it' point aswell. Two for two. Not bad.

[Looks up, rubbing the wetness off her very attractive face.]

[keep_surviving]

I don't want you here.

[badluckbabe]

That's unfortunate.

Because I decided a long time ago I'd always be here for you.

[giveadragonsomelove]

Yeah but I can't just leave it when a pretty girl seems to be in trouble.

[He holds out his hand.] Can I help you up at least?

[keep_surviving]

That was a stupid decision.

[keep_surviving]

If anything, I'm out of trouble. Out of everything.

[She takes his hand anyway.]

[theboywhodied]

What happened?

[They're not on the best of terms but he doesn't like to see people he knows unhappy]

[badluckbabe]

I don't think it was.

[keep_surviving]

Oh, hey shining armour. A little late to the party.

What didn't happen?

[keep_surviving]

This is a dumb ass way of making me talk to you.

[theboywhodied]

I don't know what that means.

You...have an unspecified bad future? Or no future?

[he can relate to that one, oh boy howdy]

[badluckbabe]

No one ever said we had to talk.

I can sit here with you as long as you can. Eventually you'll get hungry and I'll make you something.

[keep_surviving]

[Hides her face in her knees.]

No future would be better. I could live with no future.

[She doesn't have the heart to snort at her own joke.]

[theboywhodied]

It's really bad, isn't it?

[He sits next to her, offering himself as support or a punching bag, but he doesn't touch.]

I'm sorry.

[keep_surviving]

I don't need you to be sorry.

[She give a very long, shaky sigh, running her hands down her face and sitting up to hug her knees.]

I don't need you to be anything.

[keep_surviving]

Shut up.

[theboywhodied]

I'm worried about you. Something terrible obviously happened.

[badluckbabe]

OK.

[She simply remains seated next to Diana quietly observing, then looking around not wanting Diana to feel stared at]

[keep_surviving]

[Not talking again.]
