I was completely and utterly wrong. I thought that going out with the guys would be good, that something might happen, but no, so far nothing has happen. We found an old abandoned building with a few things inside that we could use but other than that, nothing. What a disappointment. Hopefully this nothingness won't last long.

And my wish came true. Soon after we left the building and got the stuff we needed, Dr. Death announced over the radio that there were dracs close to us. Poison wanted to take me back to the Diner in fear of me getting more hurt than I all ready am, but knew he had to get to the dracs and stop them.

"Venom, I want you to be careful and stay behind us. I don't want you getting hurt." He said sternly. "I'm not a child, I can handle myself." I said stubbornly. "I don't care your injuries haven't healed properly yet so don't make it worse by trying to take them all on." He replied. "I know what I'm doing." I said, getting frustrated. He stared at me seriously and said, "Will you please stop being so stubborn and listen to me? I'm not doing this to be funny, I'm serious. I know you can handle yourself but you are still hurt and jumping out in front of everything and trying to take everyone on all by yourself is going to get you killed."

I just stayed quiet. I still don't understand why he cares so much. I was silently fuming. Him and his caring frustrates me endlessly. I just can't seem to understand him and that bugs me.

We got in the car and drove to the area with the dracs. There weren't that many so it was an easy fight.

Through out the fight I did as Poison asked and stayed behind them. I was more focused on my frustration than I was on the actual fight which might have been stupid. I did get to take my frustration out on the dracs by shooting rapidly at them more so than the others. After shooting them all down, we got back in the car and drove back to the Diner.

The sun was nearly completely set and it was dark. Everyone was tired and decided to go to bed, except me. I walked outside of the Diner and went to the side where the ladder is. I slowly climbed up and sat down on the roof like last time. Except this wasn't quite like last time. I pulled my legs up to my chest and started silently crying. All the frustration of the day crept up on me and allowed bad memories to full my head. Memories that I wished I could forget.

I guess I wasn't crying as silently as I thought because Poison was climbing up the ladder and asking me what is wrong. I sat there crying. He sat down next to me. "Hey, what's wrong please talk to me." He said with a soft voice laced with concern. "I just don't understand why you care so much and it frustrates me." I managed to say. "Why does it frustrate you?" He asked completely confused. I sigh and say, "Because I'm not used to it, I've never had any one who's truly cared about me. All I've ever known is betrayal. That's why I don't have a group anymore. They were supposed to have my back, instead they stabbed me in the back, without a care." I started sobbing. Man I'm so pathetic, breaking down like this when I'm supposed to be strong.

"Hey, we aren't like that, we don't lie about stuff like caring either. We're honest, straight forward people so when we say we care, we mean it. You can always come to me to talk if you need to and I will always be here to listen." He said sincerely. "I'm scared to get close and I hate being alone. I'm always trying to star strong but I'm just so tired of it." I said, looking at the ground which tears run down my cheeks.

He put his hand under my chin and made me look at him in his eyes. For the first time I noticed how beautiful they are. They reminded me of the stars, so bright and hopeful. "You don't always have to be strong, there is no need for you to carry the weight of the world all alone on your shoulders. You can ask someone to help you carry it. If you don't you'll only end up getting crushed by the over bearing weight." He said looking into my eyes. I could see that he meant every word.

"Thank you Poison." I said calming down. I knew I finally found someone I could trust. He leaned in slowly and placed his lips softly on mine. I instantly melted into the kiss. It was soft and loving. He pulled away and looked me in the eyes and said, " We can face all the pain and take it on. Together."
