"It was fine." He smiles at her. Then, he waves his arm in front of him and the roof disappears, and the starry sky appears right in front of them. He reaches over and takes her hand.
“Who we are and who we need to be to survive are very different things.”
I'm so entranced in what he's doing, that I don't even notice when I blurt out something stupid. "Don't you have a girlfriend?" I mentally hit myself, prepared for the burst of my bubble.
I jog into the room, not aware that I'm FAR too late. "I'm here, I couldn't find--" I saw Loki and Eris and stared, confused, slightly hurt and embarrassed. "Wha--" then my eyes fell on Sif and Juve. There was no way--a sharp pain shot through my chest and I fell to my knees as it felt like my heart shattered. My hand shot to the spot as tears filled my eyes. What is this, what is this pain? Almost as if the sound had been delayed, I hear the crash of my sword falling on the ground where it already lay. It was as if suddenly the only person who mattered was them. My free hand moves to my face, coming back in a coat of water. I was crying. I take off my glasses and wipe my eyes properly. How pathetic.
Spoiler
he's a seventeen year old and he doesn't know how to handle his very first heart break...let alone double heartbreak :I first time for everything
I hear Acky cry, and I rush over to him, breaking the trance me and Juve were in. "Are you alright child?" I put my hand on his forehead checking for a fever or any signs of harm.
I stand up straight, picking up my sword as I do it. "I'm alright," I say, smiling as politely as possible . "Don't know what came over me." I bit my tongue at the lie .
"I'm okay," I insist. I look up at her blurry face and realize I haven't put my glasses back on. " Um.. " I drop back to my knees and start feeling around for them.
