Complicated

<Asuna's PoV>

Kirito had a dagger and slit something which I thought was his wrist and a lot of blood dropped down. I then remembered Suguha's words about how she trusted Kirito not to do such things. I had enough and drew my rapier and smacked the dagger out of Kirito's hands. I got a cloth and wiped away the blood.

"What are you doing!?" I say and slap him on the cheek to which he didn't flinch once. "Yo man you shouldn't be doing this... I can't trust you around my girlfriend" Calem says and I hold his hand giving him a calm down look. "You mean girlfriends..." Kirito says and moves to the side and revealed a brunette girl who looked at Calem and hugged him tightly. What was this!? He cheated on me... no...

"Calem please tell me... this isn't what I think it is..." I say and begin to tear up but he didn't respond so I run out crying. No way! He cheated on me but why!?? So this is what he did when he wasn't free in that whole month.

<Kirito's PoV>

I had no regrets. I needed Calem to show me his true colours to confirm my suspicions after what the devil told me. And yes. I could feel some aura build up in him as he looked at me. I saw his eyes flicker a shade of blue. And I saw a small horn appear in his head. Yep... he was a half breed. He's linked to whoever killed my parents and Devils sister. I knew it.

He then grabs my shoulder and pins me against the wall but I disappear from his sight and use my hiding skills. "I will kill you! For what you have done! I will take Asuna away from you! You hear me!" He shouts. But all I could do was chuckle. "My soul died long ago... your threats mean nothing to me. And you can't kill me. But if you want go ahead" I say the last bit in his ear from behind him.

"Not here Kirito." The devil spoke in my head. I kissed my teeth in annoyance and pushed Calem away from me and walked out of the library. I saw Asuna crying in the corner. Something inside me was telling me to go to her. Sometimes I hate emotions. Very dangerous.

"Just stay away from him" I say to her and walk away. I'm not going to engage in a petty love affair but I know it didn't feel right to just walk away like that. I didn't want Asuna to love him. He's just going to use her. But that's Asuna's choice. From when I knew her she was smart and kind and knew the rights and wrongs. So I can trust her maybe.

<Time Skip - 1 week - Asuna's PoV>

The whole school week was ruined. I couldn't move on from Calem. He was the one love life I had since Kirito when we were children. But this one I wanted to keep. I didn't want it to fall apart like it did with Kirito because now I hardly know who he is. I was sat in my bed. I was contemplating whether to text Calem and try and understand the situation but it makes me desperate.

I don't know anymore. But speak of the devil my phone buzzed. It was Calem... "meet me at the park... I wanna mould things over. The other girl will be there as well. Just want to resolve this" Calem says and I couldn't believe my luck. I was getting a chance. But deep down I knew it was not right. He's probably cheated more than once... but i don't know. He was everything I had after Kirito he made it more easier for me after all I was a depressed person without Kirito.

"Asuna... don't go" It was Suguha.

"Suguha..."

"Please Asuna... he will just use you! He never loved you. I can tell otherwise he would not have cheated" Suguha says.

"No! He does love me!" I say without thinking.

"Asuna!" Suguha says.

"Sorry... but I'm going. Let me resolve this situation" I say and grab my coat and was about to head out but I saw Kirito open the door and was about to head out as well. "Kirito! Asuna is going to meet Calem!" Suguha says and it makes him stop.

"Is it..." He says quietly. I couldn't tell whether he was angry or hurt. He did tell me to avoid him but if it makes me forget about how Kirito left me and now doesn't want me then I'll go back to him. I want to move on.

"Kirito stop her" Suguha says.

"If she doesn't want to listen to what I said. What do I care. Not my problem" He says and wears his hood and walks out of the house which shocked the both of us. That was so cold and soulless from him. He has changed so much since his parents death. I kind of felt bad for ignoring his advice but I had to.

<At the park>

"Look... Asuna. I found this girl and she was being harassed by a few men so I decided to step in. I found out she was low on money and offered her to stay in one of my flats. And she and I kept seeing each other but please Asuna... it wasn't meant to happen. I apologise on my actions and I promise that I won't do it again" Calem says.

"Yeah... I feel bad for doing it to... it's not right so I hope you'll forgive him. I promise I won't get in the way of your relationship" The girl says and bows and I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Could I trust them? At least he had the heart to save the girl.

"You should have told me sooner... I would have helped." I say and caress Calems cheek. "Does that mean?" He says. I then kiss him and force my tongue into his mouth. And we battle again for a few seconds. We pull apart and smile. "Yes it does..." I say
