Log;


Sakura stood near the window of the apartment, staring outside. She realized she'd been standing there for quite some time, and looked down at her hands.

A bowl.

Oh. Right. She had been on her way to the kitchen. She walked into the kitchen and set the bowl in the sink, turning on the faucet and running water in the bowl. The bowl overflowed with water for half a minute before she caught on, and finally turned the faucet off. The brunette stood there, in front of the sink, staring at the bowl full of water, eyes unfocused on the task at hand.

Sakura let herself be pulled up to her feet, head still bowed.

"Rubedo..." Her hands dropped limply to her sides as he let go of them.

She looked through her hair at him. The weight of Albedo's words in her mind had lessened slightly. Rubedo's hesitation had given more weight to the words, but he'd seemed so resolved when saying it wasn't true...she wanted to believe him...

You'll regret it

"...I...wasn't supposed to tell you...He'll be angry with me..."

"ANGRY with you?! He has no reason to be angry! Sakura, he messed with your head and then threatened you! You have no reason to be afraid of anything! Not with me around."

Shaking his head, he walked towards their bedroom, moving past the bedrooms and opening up his closet. "Sakura, I'm going out. Right now though, you shouldn't be alone. Will you be okay if I drop you off with MOMO and the old man for a few hours?"

Snap,, and the holsters clicked to the back of his belt. He was resolved. Right now, his anger was more powerful than his concern.

Sakura looked up. Rubedo was waiting for her answer, looking determined, and she was just standing there.

She couldn't take it. She ran across the room and flung her arms around him. "Be careful!"

"I..." Sakura buried her face in his shoulder. "I'll be fine here...I'd rather... be here when you get back..."

His emotions were just going topsy turvy now, from concern to anger to happy...

Well... Happy he had someone to come home to. But, still...

"Okay, but I'm still going to ask one of them to come over and keep you company while I'm out."

For a moment, he offered a small smile and wrapped his arms around her in a tight hug. But he didn't let it last for too long... After a couple minutes, he gently pushed her back, winked at her, then headed out of the room and towards the door. "I shouldn't be too long."

Grabbing his coat off the hanger, Rubedo swept it around to easily slip his arms through the sleeves, then stepped out, a glitter in his eyes as the door clicked shut.

Bastard... I'll make you pay.
