Silence was the only thing shared between Chresanto and I these days, he said nothing to me and in return I said nothing to him, I assumed that he was still upset at what I had told him, but I never asked for clarification of this assumption.

"Here." Chresanto said shoving a cup filled up to the rim with freshwater into my hands.

"Thank you." I quietly mumbled, Chresanto didn't respond he only pushed the sleeves of his thermal up to his forearm taking a seat on the ground across from me.

"I said thank you Chresanto." I repeated my voice getting louder than usual

Chresanto still said nothing, he looked ahead and quietly drunk the water from his cup.

"CHRESANTO!" I loudly yelled standing up my fists were tightly clenched against the palms of my hands I could feel my nails inserting deep into my skin, but I ignored it for I was to focused on this particular feeling, that was consuming my mind and body. It felt...strange It was taking more energy than usual for me not to grab Chresanto and pin him to the ground until he managed to choke out a "You're Welcome."

"Erin you're angry just sit down and chill out." Chresanto calmly responded looking at me

I slowly unclenched my fists and took a seat on the ground far away from Chresanto

I looked at my hands slowly examining them dried blood stained the surface, an excruciating pain shot through my hands making them throb, I began to cry, the salty tears seeped  into the deep cuts on hands making the skin around them sting I squeezed my eyes together tightly crying harder and louder. Chresanto walked over to me, sat down and looked at my hands, he took some sort of serum and poured it over my hands, making them tingle, he then pulled off of his tee shirt, tearing it in half he used the cloth to wrap both of my hands up securely, I pulled my bottom lip in between my teeth before I managed to look up at him.

"Chres l-"

"We need Rest." He interrupted "We're gonna head out at sunrise."

I nodded Laying down on my side and surprisingly Chresanto laid next to me wrapping his arms securely around my waist.

"Goodnight baby girl." He whispered placing his lips against my neck before falling off into a deep slumber.
