Cassian barely spared them a glance before he moved, his feet rushing after her, desperately wishing that the conclusion he had gotten was not true.

“Marybeth!” He called after her once he reached the steps of the house's entrance.

She looked up, about to enter her car, “Cassian? Did you need something?”

He stood there startled, he did not know what to do next now that he had her attention. It wasn’t like he could say he wanted to ask about the death of her son, so he improvised, “I was wondering if you could drop me off?”

“Oh? How were you planning on getting back then, if I hadn't shown up?”

“I was going to wait. But I don't think my pre

    "I'm sorry, willow. I'm sorry," his tone was full of regret. "Are you? Do you-do you even love me?" I sobbed, throwing more and more stuff at the bag, not even looking at what the items are anymore. "What? Why would you even say that?!" "Because that man who just fucking shouted at me out there didn't seem like he didn't!" I yell, digging my nails back into the bloody crescents that I previously stamped into my palms. I knew what I was saying wasn't true. I knew he loved me. But the toxic part of me wanted him to feel so guilty and bad for getting mad at me that I didn't care anymore. "I do love you. I love you more than anything," he pleaded as he walked into the room, but I shook my head. "Don't try and stop me. I'm going back to Ralph. To someone I can trust." I knew the last part was a low blow, but I Couldn't stop myself. He went quiet, and I continued grabbing my things around the room, ignoring his presence. Once I deemed my bags packed', I pushed past him out the be

    The two looked at me, surprised by my conclusion. I could see the wheels in their heads turning as they tried to think up other scenarios that would explain the current cluster fuck that this pack was facing. It was when Camille sighed in surrender that I knew they had given up. “Okay so maybe you are right.” She said, “But again I say only maybe. Because all that you said is still a far stretch.” “It is not a far stretch.” I shook my head, “It is really the only plausible explanation we have.” “Okay no, it is not the only plausible explanation. It is the only one that we can think of right now.” Sarah said. “Okay alright then.” I concurred. “We’ll just have to think of another possibility,” Camille said. “But what other thing could explain what happened?” Sarah said with a small sigh. “I don’t know.” I said, “But whatever you come up with, I hope it is not as far-fetched
