When he touched her she shut her eyes and SIGHED again. She was doing that a lot. "Why don't you love me, Sabel. I just need to know so I can forget about it all. I just need to know what is wrong with me. Why you don't look at me the way you used to. Why you look at HER the way I wish you would look at me," she said in a tiny voice that was strangely devoid of any emotion. "I am not going to get angry with you, I won't cry, you won't hurt my feelings. I want the truth though. The truth as to why you can never love me like that. Then I can tell you my side of things and we can drop it and let it all fall behind us... or I can let it go anyway. I want to have no unresolved issues," she added in an even smaller voice.
He was not expecting that. Slowly, he drew his hand back, his eyes locked on her face, on her expression as each and every word sunk in slowly and deeply. He wasn't sure if he was supposed to be angry that she was jealous of his feelings for Arya, embarrassed that she knew about those feelings, or sympathetic to her internal conflict. Very slowly, he drew back to sitting straight, surprised at how quiet his thoughts suddenly became though his emotions remained strangled like a dam waiting to burst.

"I did at one time, Lexi. I was willing to give you everything. I still am in a sense; I would sacrifice my life for you." For any of his friends, for in his eyes there was no greater gift than that of a friendship. "But..." A long, slow sigh left him as he turned his eyes down the hall, chewing on his bottom lip as he ran one hand back through his hair. How the hell was he supposed to answer this?

Honestly. Bluntly. Truthfully. But with love. There was no other way he could think of doing it.

"You discarded me, Lexi. I know you were in pain, I know you were struggling. But you wouldn't let me help. You, dropped me like a rag and moved onto what I thought you saw as better things. I tried waiting, but each time I tried to extend my hand you turned your eyes away." He sounded like a complete jerk, but it was the truth. "I don't hold it against you, not anymore. We all cope with things different ways and frankly, I am just glad that you made it through, that you are alive and well. It isn't that there is something, anything wrong with you Lexi, it is just that...we aren't compatible in that way. We fight, all the time." A small smile touched his lips and he couldn't help but let out a slight laugh. "I think it's because we are both so strong headed and stubborn."

The amusement faded quickly however, and returned to the solemness of the conversation. "We are both so set in our ways, in our ideas that we conflict more than we synchronize. As friends, we compliment each other well because we force each other to be honest with ourselves, we create a conflict more often than not that serves to make us stronger. And I think, as friends, we are inseparable. But...as anything more...I think, the time has passed."

Hesitantly, he turned his eyes up to her, a sudden lump of emotion caught in his throat reflected in the tears that had begun to prick his eyes. There was no denying it, he cared for her deeply, but he could not bring himself to go through those emotions again. "I am sorry, Lexi. Truly sorry, that I cannot look at you that way. That I cannot...return your sentiments in the way you want me to. I will always and forever be your friend. And I love you with all my heart. But...I am sorry."

She listened to every word he said and kept her eyes on her feet as she picked at the loose thread on the shoe string. If she pulled it it would mess up the whole thing. Kind of like this conversation was going to change everything between them. Oh well, it was time to let it go. When he stopped talking she looked up with a furrowed brow. "All I really have to say is this: I never discarded you, but I am sorry that you saw it that way. I didn't want to hurt you by dragging you through my inner turmoil anymore than I already had. I really thought that once I got somewhat straightened out that I would come back and you would be there for me... I suppose it was both selfish and foolish to expect that. I don't have fight left in me like that anymore, Sabel. I just don't. Too much has changed and too things will only continue to roll downhill," she said as she cut her eyes to look at him.

Oh hell. Were those tears in his eyes? Crap. "And there is plenty wrong with me, Sabel. You are simply too kind to point that out. As it were, Ivan relishes ALL of my imperfections. More than the beauty I think. He really is great and I don't want to lose him, but I had to figure this out first. I think you are the thing that was holding me back... my idiotic hope that you would come to your senses," she said with a hint of bitterness to her voice.

Sighing once more she stood up in one fluid motion. "I think you're wrong, you know. I think the reason we fight is you somewhat resent me for hurting you and I was mad that you wouldn't see what you had in front of you," she added as she dusted off the back of her jeans. "I think that covers all of that, really. Moving on- I went to have a meeting with Mr. Gevrik," she said in a monotone voice. Just let it go, Sabel. She was letting it go. It was GONE.

He could feel his jaw tightening with each word she said. It was taking every bit of him not to snap at her and to retain his anger, but she was just plucking at all the wrong points. This time, he didn't move when she got up, he didn't even look up. And yes, those tears in his eyes were honest and true, but once again, so many things seemed to be Lexi-focussed. "It's okay Lexi, just get up and walk away like you always do when you think or deem the conversation is over. Don't mind whatever else others have to say in return. Maybe that's why you considered me never being there for you, because you never stopped to listen to me fully. Maybe. I might be completely wrong here, but do not insinuate that I have never been there for you or that I judge you." Slowly, he pushed himself to his feet, his eyes coming level with hers. Wherever this anger had come from, he didn't like it and it reminded him of the fights they had last term. That and she wasn't walking away, not yet, but it had sure seemed like she was going to.

Drawing a hand back through his hair, he let out a slow, uneven breath to reign himself back in. Apparently he still felt there were a lot of unresolved issues between them, or maybe just a lot of pet peeves that annoyed him real fast, real quick. Though really, she needed to learn how to hold a conversation rather than simply ending it when she thought the time was right. Hopefully she learned that before her and Ivan had to have a talk. But she wanted to drop it, fine, he would drop it. "What did Ikenna say?"

Really? REALLY. Shaking her head she let him spew it all out and crossed her arms across her chest. With one eyebrow quirked she watched him get up and kind of glare at her. "Bout done then?" she asked with a hint of amusement to her voice. Making a clicking sound with her tongue she shook her head again. "First of all, SAbel... stop being so bloody overly analytical. I was not saying that you weren't there for me as a friend. I meant in the relationship sense. I meant only that I was hoping that when I got out of the hospital and got my head right that you would want to be with me. And 'I' have never insinuated that you judge me, but it is plain as day that you do the way you have approached some topics of conversation with me... but I am not trying to fight with you. And in case you weren't sure... I am not walking away. I was simply standing up because that floor is really cold," she said with a light tone to her voice. "Sabel... perhaps you need to work on your feelings too. Because that was a lot of anger to have and a lot of conclusions you jumped to there..."

"Uuuh. Mr. GEVRIK is not a bad guy. I think he is very sincere that he has our best interests at heart, Sabel. Speaking with him was very enlightening indeed," she said with a little shrug.

If he didn't like his teeth, he may have cracked them from how forcefully he was grinding them. It took a great deal of effort to slacken his jaw and relieve the pressure on them. Here was the pot calling the kettle black. But there was no sense in arguing about them; it was all they seemed to do and for once, he wanted a conversation that didn't turn around on either one of them. And this would just go back and forth in a never ending circle if he decided to clarify any point offered. She didn't want him to talk about it further, fine, he wouldn't. Period. Onto other matters then.

"Not a bad guy?" Folding his arms across his chest, he released another slow breath to try and expel some of the tension so he could think straight along this line at least. "I'm curious as to how a man that mocks a well known and respect professor in front of the entire staff and student body can prove to be enlightening." Unless it was an ironic sense of enlightenment. "What did he say?"

Really. He was letting it go like that... all that jaw clenching was not fooling her. He wanted to say something. A lot of stuff. Sighing she stepped closer and lay her hand on his arm. "Hey, please just get it off of your chest, please. Nothing is ever going to be.. RIGHT until we have both gotten it all out. Just calm down and let's talk like rational people. I will listen. I will answer if you want me to answer... or you can just say what you think and I will accept it and we will move on. I just... I got it out there, I spoke my piece. Now I feel like a weight has been lifted. Do the same?" Idiot boys... they never just let go.

She would wait to continue the Gevrik discussion until he said yes or no...

Okay, so maybe the jaw clenching wasn't as over as he thought it was. Especially not when she touched him and talked to him like he was a child. Though the frown didn't extend onto his expression, his eyes burned with an intensity of the frustration, anger and emotion of all they had been through together. "I have spoken my part, Lexi. I have told you the truth and you chose to argue it and then shut me up when I was interested in clarifying a few points. If you don't wish to take my words at face value, don't ask for them." That was it, that was all. Circles would only result from anything more. "Now, what about Gevrik?"

Really. Shaking her head Lexi removed her hand from his arm and smiled sadly. "That makes me really sad, Sabel. I am trying so hard right now. You said some things, I said some things then you shut down. I would have blown up and walked away before... I am not sure what else you want from me. I just don't understand why you get so damned angry with me when I am calm and you pick apart what I say and twist it into something terrible when I mean no disrespect. I think it is you that needs to take MY words at face value and stop thinking that I am trying to attack you all the time." Now she was getting a little angry. Just a smidge. It was okay for Sabel to twist everything she said, but she couldn't try to get him to open up? Bull... it was a load of bull.

"I would suggest you talk to Gevrik before you make your decision as to his character. I trust him. He is a nice man with our best interests at heart," she said simply. Stepping back further from him she shook her head once more.

"The only reason I shut down, Lexi, and I will quote you, is because you asked me if 'I was about done'. That means very well you were done hearing what I had to say. As you end the conversation every time when I start saying things that perhaps you don't want to hear." Drawing up his hands, he held them in front of himself in self defense. "Don't get me wrong, I'm not picking apart what you are saying or making you out to be the 'bad guy'. I'm stating a fact we both know is true."

When she took a step back, he watched her with sharp eyes, wondering if she was going to turn and leave and consider this conversation over. "I don't twist your words Lexi, I perceive them and I did apologize if it was a wrong perception. But how about this? You stop putting words in my mouth and emotions in my heart, you stop assuming why I am angry at you and if I am still angry at you, stop thinking you know me so well as to know my thoughts and maybe you'll see that I've never been a damn thing but open with you. Every time you ask me about these matters I tell you straight up, but for some reason you think I'm holding something back. I can assure you, you would know if I was. I have told you everything with all the truth I can muster so saying anything else at this point would just be repeating myself and I really don't see the point of it when you don't care to actually listen to what I say."

The neutrality remained as he continued to watch her, never breaking his gaze from her. "I am curious Lexi, and perhaps you can explain this to me, how a man who ridicules a staff member you have known for five years can gain your complete and undying trust in every word he says and every intention he has, while a friend who is willing to give his life for you cannot gain even a fraction of that trust. Please, explain to me how that works." Because more than anything at the moment, that stung. Badly.

"You are such a lying little prat, Sabel Dakest! If you said everything you wanted to say then you wouldn't be clenching your jaw to keep from mouthing off. YOu have NEVER been STRAIGHT with me. Not one hundred percent. Not from where I am standing. But, that's right the self righteous, all knowing, all perfect Sabel is infallible, is that it? Yeah I thought it was something along those lines. Merlin forbid that you actually had to admit that you feel something... Merlin forbid you had to admit you were wrong about me, MERLIN FORBID you have to be a supportive friend and NOT tear me apart," she said, her volume growing a little each word.

Hearing him but choosing not to speak any further she took a page from his book and clenched her jaw tightly. Then Gevrik... Ugh. "Sabel... you are being SO dramatic about this. I did not saying he had my 'undying trust' stop being such a drama queen, please. And like I said, perhaps you should visit him yourself. You will find that he is very open to speaking to you about anything you wish to discuss. And now... even though you will surely say I am being unreasonable... I am going to go. I am really and truly over you... over this... I don't need anyone in my life that makes me feel as terrible as you do, Sabel. YOu make me really, and truly feel like I am not good enough. I get enough of that from my family... I don't need it from you or anyone else for that matter. Go climb a tree or something and I will go find Ivan and we will forget that the other even exists. Sound good to you? It sounds great to me." She was serious... it shocked her, but she was serious. She could let him go like that. No more Sabel. He wouldn't exist to her anymore.

He was never one for cornering someone, never one for forcing someone to stay where they didn't want or weren't comfortable but then again, he wasn't always rational when he was emotional. Reaching out, he grabbed her arm though his grip was gentle and with no strength to hurt, only to guide. And he had her back up against the wall in an instant, his arms on either side of her head, blocking her in as his eyes bore into hers, holding them.

The most surprising thing to him however, was the sound of his own voice; while it held the same intensity of his gaze, it was quiet and reserved, a strength teetering on gentle firmness. "I have only tried to hold you together, Lexi Denver. You know my only desire ever was to make sure you smiled again and you know that I have never considered my self perfect or you inadequate. Even when you turned Arya and my struggle into a school wide-gossip, I didn't turn my back on you. Not because I am imperfect, because you are one of my dearest friends."

Without thinking, he brought his head close to hers, his lips centimeters away from hers, hovering with all the intensity of the emotions boiling between them, and now, his voice was quieter than ever. "Do you remember, when you did this, to me Lexi? All those years ago? You came into the common room and you kissed me. If you would have asked me then, I would not have denied what I felt for you, that I was willing to wait for you. But you wouldn't let me help you, and you broke my heart."

Slowly, he drew his head back, eyes finding hers again, softer this time. "I wish the past could be rewritten, but things are different now and irregardless of what has or hasn't been done in the past, this is where we stand now. I am more than willing, and I am hoping to stay friends with you Lexi, as I have shown you already this term. But, if my care and concern for you makes you feel so terrible, if the honest truth that I cannot reciprocate the same feelings for you makes you feel like you are worthless for some stupid reason, then fine. I won't stop you. Forget me if it's easier for you Lexi. I'll always be here as I have been, waiting with open arms." With that, he let his arms fall from the walls and took his own step back. "I sincerely wish you the best with Ivan, he seems like a nice man."

Before she really had time to think he had his hand on her. Really. He was ALWAYS doing that. Wait a second. No. He wasn't doing this to her. She was wrenched from the present and a flood of memories came to the forefront of her mind. Her back was against the wall and he had her hemmed up. Not a very sanity condusive position for her. To keep from hyperventilating she clamped her eyes shut tight and whimpered slightly.

She listened to his words like they were in the distance. She heard all of what he said and did not comment. She kept her eyes shut as she felt him hover closer to her. Whimpering again she shifted slightly making sure he couldn't reach her lips. Then he was back away from her slightly. He was freaking her out. It wasn't HIM it was her past and this ... ugh. When he finally stopped talking and she could no longer feel him intruding in her personal space she opened her eyes ever so slightly and took a deep shaking breath. Pushing herself off of the wall she moved forward and closed the distance between them. Staring at him for a moment she put her hands on either side of his face and actually pressed her lips to his, lingering only for a moment before pulling back. Then in the same instant, without warning she brought her hand back and aimed her palm and his right cheek with as much force as she could muster. "Don't you EVER do that to me again," she said in an even voice.

Tears she didn't realize were coming started to spill her eyes and run down her cheeks. "Never again, Sabel. Never." she said as she stepped away from him and hugged herself, a sea of emotions washing over her. He knew she had a terrible past. Why corner her like that? That was cruel and she hated that he did that... hated it.

He should have been more attentive to her reaction to what he was doing; he knew that. But the drive to make his point, to release everything that had been building up drowned out her whimper and it was only when he pulled back and saw the look on her face that he regretted it. Not the words, not the point he had made, but the actions that went alongside them.

The kiss was completely unexpected and so fast both in enactment and in release that he didn't have time to do anything to prevent or end it. He would have pushed her away if he could have made his brain work just that much faster, but perhaps it was enough that he simply didn't return the kiss. There wasn't any time to comment on it either though as a hard sting had his head snapping to the side.

For a good moment he didn't turn it back, staring at the floor in a sudden silence of emotion as her words washed over him. Ever so slowly, he brought his eyes back to her, watching as she hugged herself and fear seemed to overtake her. More so than before, the regret stabbed through him and he was in front of her, wrapping his arms around her protectively and gently, his voice nearly dead quiet.

"I'm sorry....I'm...so sorry." Not for the words, not for the point he had made but for the memories he had resurrected. One hand came up to gently stroke her hair as he rocked her, cursing himself internally for forgetting what had her shaking like a leaf.

She couldn't help but feel some TINY bit of satisfaction as she watched his head fling sideways from her slap. He knew better than to do something like that to her. KNEW BETTER. She shook slightly from head to toe and let the tears fall. When he wrapped his arms around her she tensed for a moment... and then began to relax into the embrace. "You. Never again, Sabel. Don't, please, don't," she said quite nonsensically. He had shaken her to her core with that little act.

She didn't make a sound as the tears fell, she didn't speak again. She just wrapped her arms around him and balled her fists up in his clothing where she gripped him. She allowed him to rock her and pet her.

She had done it. She had gotten him to open up. Totally. Spill it all. It may have cost her a sliver of sanity, but the air felt clear between them for the first time in a while now. That was a comforting thought.

Taking a calming breath she whispered in a hoarse voice, "I didn't mean it when I said I wanted to forget you. You are one of my best friends... I have just never been so mad at you." That was all she needed to say, all she could say... that was all. It was over. They could move on and be happy.

He didn't let her go, wouldn't let her go, not until she had calmed down a great deal more. There was no sense in saying anything back. No sense in telling her he had been just as angry. That, had been very obvious. So, he just kept holding her and rocking her, hoping to chase the scare away that he had caused. There was no pride in what he had done, and he felt downright ashamed for cornering her. It wasn't him. It wasn't how he dealt with things. But then, as she had said, he had never been so angry with her either. That, was a mutual thing. But whatever had happened seemed to have worked, for the time being at least. And he hoped, it stayed that way.

Heather walked out into the corridor and began walking. Now she wasn't sure if she wanted Derian to find her or not. Maybe Heather could find someone else to talk to?

Tay wandered down the corridor and bumped into someone- "Oh, i'm sorry!" she said to the girl with a big, radiant smile- she was slightly embarassed though. She pushed back her blonde curls and stood slightly awkwardly- "I'm Taylor."

Oops. Heather had bumped into someone. "Oh it's fine." Heather said smiling back at the girl. "Hi Taylor, I'm Heather P. Miller." Why did she always have to put the middle initial in there. She couldn't just say Heather or Heather Miller, it had to be Heather P. Miller! Ugh.

Tay smiled- "Well, it's good to meet you Heather P Miller" she said, winking at Heather and giggling- Heather had looked a little embarassed when she'd said her second name, but Tay didn't want to make her feel bad. "So, are you a firstie?" she asked her kindly.

"Is it that obvious?" Heather asked laughing. She hoped she wasn't being a pest. A lot of people looked down on her because of her age. "What year are you?"

"Aww don't worry. And i'm just Second." Tay answered kindly, tucking a loose curl behind her ear and smiling again. "I guess you're excited to be here right?" she asked Heather, full of encouragement- she knew it had been pretty scary last year, you needed all the support you could get!

"Completely. My parents didn't go here when they were kids so this is a new experience for my whole family." Heather responded. She liked Taylor so far, she was sweet. "I hate chatting and running, but I think it's best if I go right now." Heather said. She needed to think, that's what this walk was for. She really did like the girl though she was sweet. Heather continued her walk down the hallway. The lake sounds like a nice place to be. She thought to herself and headed towards the direction.

The tears had stopped flowing, but she still quivered slightly in his arms. Trauma. Takes a while to work through. Sighing once she started to think about what she had vowed before she left London...

It brought a giggle out of her, then another, then before long she was outright laughing. "I vowed not to be involved in any drama this term... The first bloody day back almost... This," she said through guffaws.

Well laughter was good...right? He was going to say yes for the sake of argument.

Drawing back a little, he shifted his hands to Lexi's upper arms and peered at her, a slight smile touching the corners of his lips. "It wouldn't be Hogwarts if there wasn't any drama." Pulling one hand back to himself, he hesitated before pointing his finger at her, his tone light without any accusation or anger; simply that of a statement. "Just don't...kiss me again." Ever.

"Yeah, I suppose you're right." Hogwarts was a breeding ground for angst it seemed. Then he was pointing his finger at her. Rolling her eyes at him she chuckled, "I only did it to make you uncomfortable. I succeeded. Besides the slap would not have been nearly as satisying had I not done that first." Logic. It was logical to her anyway.
