He turned to face Marie. She had come up as one of the reasons that Caroline was tired of 'fighting'. That's how she put it. Like Carter was something that was a struggle to be around.
"She... she just told me that she was done. Like I was too much work." Or last year's shoes. He heard that girls get rid of shoes the very same way.
He once again turned to the wall and leaned his head against it. He didn't want to be looking at Marie when she said that she told him so.
Well that's not what she was expecting to hear come out of his mouth. Sure, she knew that relationship was doomed from the start, but honestly, she didn't expect it to end already.
Stepping closer to him Marie reached out and grabbed his hand so he couldn't punch the wall anymore.
"Punching the wall like that isn't going to change things Carter." No, it was just going to make his hand hurt like hell later.
She REALLY wanted to tell him
'I told you this would happen' but decided not to when she seen the hurt in his eyes once he turned towards her. It was the same hurt she had in her eyes when he had dumped her. She wasn't going to bring that up though. Not today anyway.
"She was done? Done with what? Done being in love with you, done leading you on...?"
Now Marie was hoping there would be someone in the common room when she got there, and that someone was Caroline.
