Maybe it's hurts to remember
Or to think about him at all
But whatever the case
I will always be falling...

29th May 2035
Texas' POV
It hurts to even think about him. After the apology two days ago, my mind is conflicted between Gamma and Riot. Scythe is apparently suffering the same problems, can't stop thinking about his S.O, but the difference is that he actually has her, I have only crushes I've held on to for this long. I don't want to tell Riot, he'll probably laugh in my face. Gamma, I don't know what his problem is.

I heard a scuffle going down upstairs. I went to go check it out.

And what I saw would terrify me to my very core. Riot had Gamma pinned to the ground, while Eden held a knife to Riot's throat.

"...and I'll slit your throat. I fucking dare you."

Hearing that, I burst through the door and stared at the awkwardly placed trio of people.

"Don't ever touch Texas again! You hear that, pretty boy? If I see you touch her, I'll personally..."

"What the fuck?!!" I screamed. "Shit, Eden?! Put that away!" Eden turned and looked at me. "He was pinning Gamma to the floor! What else can I do? You want me to sit there and not care?"

"No, but it doesn't have to be so extreme!"

"Why don't you ask Riot what he was going to do?" Eden glared at Riot and then turned back to me.

"Riot? What does she mean?"

Riot looked defeated. He knew he had nothing much left to defend himself with. "He was...I mean, what did he say to you two days ago?"

"Apologize. That's all he did. Nothing more."

"Fuck, I thought he asked you to do something...I'm sorry Texas, I didn't mean for this to happen."

"Well, now it has." Tears began to form in my eyes. Why is everything involving men so hard? Why don't they understand how we feel? I ran out the door, only to stumble and fall because of my injury. "Fuck...Riot?"

Riot rushed to my side and helped me up. I grimaced in pain. Probably shouldn't have left my bed.

"You okay?"

I nodded, although pain was at the forefront of my mind. Tears sprang to my eyes, they dropped down onto Riot's shirt. I laid in his arms, not thinking about him, or Gamma, or the fact that Eden had now seen me cry for the first time in several years, or the fact the Sierra was standing there.

"She's...gonna be okay...so go back and do your own shit. Stupid."

"Hah, as if. But yeah, I'll go now."

I grabbed hold of his pants leg, causing him to stop.

"Tex?"

"Do this for me. Please."

Sierra's POV
What does she want now? She's been ignoring me for the longest time, well, since we came back, but she has been doing that. "What do you want?"

"Find...Stratos. Find him. Bring him here."

"I will. If it makes up for what I did."

"No, it won't. It's for me. But yeah, I would be grateful. Stupid."

Scythe's POV
I decided to message Miriam.

To: Miriam
Hey babe, it's been a long time since we saw each other, how's studies so far ? When I'm done with what I'm doing, we shall go out for a nice movie to catch up and be together again. I miss you and I love you <3
