7.

"Who the fuck cares where that bastard is..." She bitterly mumbled as her gaze momentarily averted to the floor-length glass door leading to the balcony.

"Not here though, is he?" Her voice audibly wavered as her tear-filled gaze found my own once again, feeling my chest constrict with pain as I watched her struggle so hard to keep them at bay.

"Oh my god, B...Tell me all about it," I soothingly coaxed, moving to sit closer to her.

She let out a trembling sigh, thickly swallowing as she fought to find her voice once again.

"We're not...I mean I don't even know what's going on with us..."

"It's just that we're not...Seeing each other anymore..." She managed to say after a moment, a small tear finally trailing its way down her cheek.

"What? But...Why? I mean how could such thing happen? Don't you guys have that 'special bond' thingy going on?" I quickly asked, staring at her in utter disbelief.

"Yeah, apparently that doesn't matter when you dry-hump a werewolf, even if it's not your fault," She retorted with a sniffle, wiping that stray tear with the back of her hand.

"Y-you what?" I incredulously asked back, eyes wide as my mind struggled to understand what the hell was she talking about.

Wait what? Werewolves are real too? Oh my god!

And how the hell did she end up humping one?

"Long story..." She simply answered with another sigh, sluggishly raising herself to her feet before she moved to lay down on her bed, my gaze casually noticing a visible bend at the edge of her bed's metal frame, indicating that someone non-human must've definitely done that.

Holy shit.

"Please tell me that didn't happen while you were staying here with Raphael all alone and locked in," I suddenly voiced my thoughts in a rapid blurt and with a freaked-out grimace as the shocking image of them going at it like freaking bunnies suddenly entered my mind, making me also feel a little grossed-out.

Wasn't he supposed to be in love with that goddess girl or whatever?

Her tired gaze found my own, expressing a confused frown before she quickly tracked my line of sight.

"Oh, no, Raz did this," She so quietly said as she rose and moved closer to trace a finger over the heavily bent metal frame, her expression turning even sadder as she pensively gazed at it.

Well damn.

"Man, that dude is nasty," I awkwardly mumbled with a small cringe as I didn't even dare let myself imagine exactly how he must've done that, to my surprise hearing her let out an amused chuckle at the sound of my words.

"Oh my god, no! He didn't do this while having sex with me," She quickly told me as she looked back at me.

"Then what...Oh my god did that monster hit you or something?" I nearly shouted in disbelief as I stared at her with a wild look.

Archangel or not, I will beat the crap out of him with a freaking crowbar!

"God no!" She immediately answered with an appaled look plastered all over her features at the hearing of such thing, feeling myself lightly sighing in relief.

"This happened...the night he..." She audibly swallowed, pausing for a moment as those tears returned at the edge of her eyelids, threatening to escape once again.

"When we broke up..." She eventually managed to say, I myself feeling like giving myself a big punch in the face.

Shit.

Why can't I just shut the fuck up already?

I silently scolded myself as I rose myself up and moved to sit right next to her, throwing my arms around her as I could not bear another moment without the constant need to comfort her in any way I could.

I felt the small sobs wracking through her body as I sat and held her as tight as I could, even shedding some tears of my own as her sadness was simply crushing me.

I couldn’t even imagine what she was going through.

All this was just too much already. Even for someone as tough as she was.

We simply sat there in silence for another couple of moments, holding each other like there was no tomorrow when the door suddenly flung open, revealing a bewildered Rick.

"I-I just saw Raph and he told me that..." He abruptly swallowed his words as his gaze fell upon his baby sister, noticing that tiny flutter in his eyelid as he silently stared, seconds before he darted from his spot and almost crushed her as he picked her up from the bed like she were a ragdoll and wrapped his arms around her body, holding her so tight as she cried her heart out.
