the tension in his refuses to bend, or break, so alleviates it. a hand reaches for a carton of smokes slightly dented from the earlier scuffle, and he lights one.
[break]
[break]

king holds the pack out in offering, should she wish one.
[break]
[break]

it was a nasty habit, he knew.
[break]
[break]

"ye, i 'spose we do."
[break]
[break]

he takes a drag, feeling nicotine rush to fill gaps left empty.
[break]
[break]

"not that ye had much difficulty expressin' yers."
[break]
[break]

a breath, baited; hesitant.
[break]
[break]

"ye don't much like me, do ye?"
[break]
[break]
he wasn't matias, after all.

Sage declined, muttering, “No thanks.”

Her eyes lingered on the children again, for only a moment, and were then drawn back in.

She chuckled a little, perhaps not reading his tone initially. Then, his question caught her off guard. Her face fell.

“What?”

“What do you mean? I like you fine.”

a longer drag this time. lungs expand, then, release. the edge remains and he feels... disgusted. holding it between his fingers, he doesn't look at her.
[break]
[break]

not yet.
[break]
[break]

"ye sure? yer never this critical with matty. ye never point out his mistakes, or short-comin's. and when it's just us three, i feel like i'm third wheelin' somethin'."
[break]
[break]

a breath.
[break]
[break]

"feels like i'm just here."
[break]
[break]

finally, his gaze lands on her. eyes are hard, and worn, though cracks beneath the surface reveal the truth — he too, was human.
[break]
[break]

"be honest with me. if matty wasn't busy, and ye had the choice —— who would ye have done this with?"

It felt like it was coming out of left field, and she wasn’t entirely sure how to deal with it.

Sage pursed her lips a little.

“I don’t think he wants kids, either. I could be wrong about that, though…” Maybe that would have changed her mind?

She shook her head, knowing she wasn’t helping things. “’Third wheeling’?”

Her eyes turned on the man again, brow still a little wrinkled—but this time, it might look almost offended.

His question went unanswered, except for with another.

“Do you even know how long I’ve known Matias?”

her voice trails off as she gets lost in, what? a thought? a fantasy?. if matias did want children, how would her story change?
[break]
[break]

it was telling, that; she told king it wouldn't have been a good idea to be a father, meanwhile, matias simply didn't want to be one.
[break]
[break]

he puts the end of the cigarette out in the grass beneath him, crumpling it into his pocket for a later disposal. arceus, why did he feel this way? why did she make him feel this way?
[break]
[break]

"a long while."
[break]
[break]

he almost regrets saying it, knowing where it'll lead. the lecture; the hard, cold truth.
[break]
[break]

"forget i said anything."
[break]
[break]

he found a place where he thought be belonged, but, maybe that was just wishful thinking.

It was weird. She didn’t think much about it. Not in that moment. She wouldn’t, for a long while, except for maybe a few passing moments that evening, when processing her day in bed. 

Sage shook her head, ridding thoughts of family. Something far out of her reach. Why stretch? Why even give it a passing thought?

“…”

“Okay.”

he regretted ever bringing it up. he had perfected the 'suffer in silence' concept.
[break][break]
now?
[break][break]
now he just wanted an escape.
[break][break]
the sounds of sirens in the distance brought him the chance. reinforcements. help, for the children. he stood on shaky legs, stretching his arms outwards, and cracking his neck.
[break][break]
"i need a drink."
[break][break]
he'd invite her, but...
[break][break]
"thanks... for havin' my back today."
[break][break]

eyes watch the approaching convoy with mixed feelings. he'd drown sorrows out, alone, again.

Sage raised a brow up at him, as though still bewildered, but eventually stood as well, preparing to leave.

“Ok...”

At having his back, she nodded. “Of course. Always.”

She couldn’t have possibly imagined the scenario which would cut such a promise in half.
