*Unhealthy Relationship* 

"What am I do?" he thought. He had promised never, never again would he let Roman ensnare with a kiss. Buth here was, being kissed by Roman, even after they had broken up, even after they had screamed at each, even after they said the cruelest words to one and another, even after they had both sworn never to come crawling back. 

They always said this was the last time. There was always a next time.

"We can't keep doing it's insane," he mumbled when they broke apart, his heart beat quicker than normal, no matter how many times they kissed Roman always make it feel like the first time.

Roman smiled lazily and replied, "My darling Ann, if our love is insanity, then why are you my clarity?" resting his forehead on Anxiety's. They were so close that Anxiety could feel Roman's thundering heartbeat, which gave him all he needed to know.

"We both know how this ends," he whispered not wanting either of them to get hurt again, but as he looked into Roman's eyes he could feel himself melting.

"Happily married when 2.5 kids and a dog?" Roman asked in a light tone, but Anxiety could hear the worry hidden under it.

Anxiety put his hands one Roman's shoulders, took at stepped back, and looked him directly in the eye as he said, "You are the piece of me I wish I didn't need. You chase me relentlessly, still fighting and I don't know why" The silent question at the end hung in the air between them.

"Because I love you," was all Roman was able to say before Anxiety pulled Roman to him and pressed their lips together.

Anxiety smiled into the kiss and readily returned it, for that one moment he didn't care that they were in a vicious cycle of break-ups and make-ups, he didn't care that they would be better off seeing other people, he just cared about the feel of Roman's lips on his own.

He should have cared.

A week later they were fighting again, and like always it was painful for everyone involved. Patton and Logan begged them to finally break up for good, and they tried, they promised this time was the last time, but like always one begged the other to come back and they got back together.

Anxiety knocked on Roman's door. They had broken up a few days earlier and he wanted, no needed to talk to Roman. He already knew what he was going to say he just hoped it would work.

Roman opened the door and practically growled, "What do you want?" but even as he pretended to hate Anxiety he was already thinking of getting back together.

"Our love is a tragedy,"  Anxiety replied, taking a deep breath as he waited for Roman's response.

Roman looked shocked as he said, "If our love is tragedy then why are you my remedy?" He took a step forward and Anxiety took a step back.

"I'm not. We're not good together Roman," Anxiety replied taking a few more steps backward to put himself at a safe distance away from Roman, he had never tried to hurt Anxiety before, but Anxiety wasn't taking any chances.

Roman took a deep breath, trying to keep his face from showing how hurt he was, and said, "You didn't come all the way here to just tell me that," 

It wasn't a question, but Anxiety still said, "Yeah, I also came here to tell you I'm leaving,"

"I know that," Roman replied, his brow furrowing in confusion.

Anxiety started to walk away and over his shoulder, he called out, "I'm leaving the mind space,"  Roman ran down the hall, but it was too late.

Anxiety was gone.
