Will sat on the couch by the fire. There it was, the thing she had dreaded most. She had talked to Anton that very day and he had given her a very pretty dres that matched her skin and hair but she still didn't feel like talking to him and he had called her a self absorbed and selfish so and so...
"What has the world come to?" she thought out loud and stared into space. She drew her shall around her more and looked at the dress she was wearing. It really was beautiful and he had gotten it special made by the seamstress at the Dress makers down in Cardsdale. She heard a door swing open and Mikayla came in.
"Hey Will, how are you?" she asked brightly.
"Fine," Will lied, "You?"
"I'm...chipper," Mikayla finished after a moments thought.
"Good,"
"You want some company?"
"Not really, sorry Mikayla I feel like being on my own tonight if that's alright!?" Will studied her facial expressions.
"Sure, no problem, I completely understand, I get those senario's some times," Mikayla finished and turned on her heel and left Will seating there in peace.
Will sank back into the back of the settee again and started to think of her mom and dad. Tears rolled down her face. The door creaked open again and Madeleine walked in.

What a day.
After what Lee had said to her, Madeleine felt like her heart had been ripped from her chest and torn into pieces all over again.
If you break my heart I'd still love you with all the little pieces...
She wished more than ever that she didn't think about him the same way, that her emotions would go with what was happening, but her little sharp impulse that reprimanded her had stopped, because it only made things worse.
And if she admitted what she felt, it should make it easier to get over, right?
Know your enemy...
She pushed open the door to the common room, cheeks burning.
Will was sitting in the room by the fire, wearing a beautiful dress.
"Hey," Madeleine said tiredly, rubbing her eyes. "Nice dress..."
Will was crying.
What a day.
"Are you okay?" she asked softly.

"Are you okay?" she asked softly.
Will wagged her head, "No, I'm not,"
She didn't want to elaborate anymore but she knew that Madeleine would push her.
"Anton is still trying to talk to me and I really don't want to talk to him, I'm not ready to forgive him. He's the one that had this dress specially made for me and all I can think about is what he did to Mikayla and now I can't seem to stop thinking about my parents," she explained. She felt like her soul was being ripped in two and chewed up and spat back out. Her heart was beating very fast at the moment and the andrenaline was running through like mad, yet she still seemed to bw able to sit still and look calm and let the tears flow.
She kept staring straight in front of her as Madeleine moved around her.

Madeleine moved round Will, sighing gently. "What did he do to Mikayla?"
A hug seemed appropriate, but Madeliene didn't do hugs. Ever. She knew that there were days when she could really use one, but actually giving hugs was more than a bit different.

Will stared at Madeleine her eyes gleaming with tears. "Her slaaped her and then when I was right in front of him he hit her over the head with is file and knocked her unconcious!"
She snorted. "It's ironic, you know. I knew he couldn't be as good mannered and everything as I thought him to be,"

Abusive tendencies, much?
"No one's perfect," said Madeleine quietly, tentatively patting Will's arm. "You can find someone that seems so, in every way, but they will always have a flaw. I guess you're just supposed to learn to live with it; that's the way life goes."
Learn to live with it.
That was where she had made her big mistake. Her impatience was one of her huge flaws, and it made her unable to cope with the flaw in their relationship. And Lee, Lee wasn't flawless, but he was as good as it got.
She'd just expected too much. She always did that. She expected too much of her Warriors, too much of herself, and she'd wrecked everything by expecting too much of Lee. After the words spoken today, Madeleine was having to rethink every thought she'd had about their break-up.
And she was learning that she was wrong.

Will was drowning quickly in her sorrows. She sniffed and looked at Madeleine.
"I know, but it still doesn't help," she said quietly. "How's battle training coming along?" she decided to change the subject.
She was sick of talkign about relationships and she knew that Madeleine was too.
"Guy's suck," she blurted out before she could stop herself.
Great going there Will, really smooth. Just when you were trying to change the subject you go and say that, really smart!
A fox appeared before them and jumped onto Will's knees and llicked her face and then leant his head on her neck. She put her head on his and closed her eyes, silently thanking for some moments of silence.
"I love you," she said very quietly so only it could hear her.

Madeleine stared at the fox curling up on Will's knee, raising her hand to her lips and chewing on a nail. "Yeah, but, a lot of the time we're just as bad."
She was just as bad.

"I suppose so, we're alienated to each other really but we're the same in many ways!" she sighed deeply into herself. "It's a very very mad world," she laughed a bit.

Madeleine grinned weakly. "I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take..."
She glanced at the fire and dropped her hand to her knees as her teeth hit skin, before turning to Will. "Have you ever really, really messed up with something?"

"But when people run in circles it's a very very mad world!" she finished off.
"Have you ever really, really messed up with something?" Madeleine asked as she looked up at Will.
"Depends what you mean by stupid," she replied.

"Like... you get the wrong end of the stick and end up making a really big mistake because you jumped to the wrong conclusion..." Madeleine muttered, tailing off. "It doesn't matter. But... I think you should give Anton another chance."

"I get what you mean and yes I've done it once and regretted it for the rest of my life, I want to but I just can't seem to bring myself to do it," she sighed tears welling up in her eyes again.

"Don't mess it up. You've found someone that you really really like..." Madeleine said, staring into the fire again.

"I guess you're right, thanks Madeleine!" Will gulped after she had said this. She was gonaa make up with Anton tomorrow and wear the lovely dress he had specially made for her. It really was beautiful and sweet of him to do that.
"I hate it when we muck things up," she finally spat it out.
