His right arm slowly reached up to rest his hand on where the scar was hidden on his left arm. His hand squeezed tightly as tears started to well up in his eyes.
"Painful..."
He would say so quietly that Gidget would have tobreally focus to hear. Then he would drop his hand and take a large breath. Composing himself before returning his gaze to Gidget.
"It was... natural. Unexpected, like a surprise from out of no where. But as soon as it was there, it was as if... it had always been there. Together it felt like we were unstoppable, and I wanted her to be with me always..."
He stopped as the memory of her death returned to his mind...
"She... died... because I was to blinded by emotion to insist she stay behind."

Gidget's shoulders slumped. She wasn't sure what to do here, or how to comfort her friend. She had no real experience with most emotions, and seemed most comfortable with anger. That, she understood.
She wiggled slightly, wincing at the pain that jarred through her, before sighing softly.
"What was her name?"

"Melody."
He shook his head.
"In any case that's, what little I know about it... but, I do know someone that might be able to offer a little more insight on love and relationships, while they haven't had any I think they might be better suited to answer your questions."

"Yeah? And who is that?"
She tried to keep her typical sarcastic tone out of her voice. She was trying to take him seriously, and to be considerate of his feelings, but... Well, she couldn't help who she was.

And that snapped him back to his typical self.
"Fuckin apparently no one. Fuck me for trying to help."

"Just tell me. Bastard."
Gidget glared at Drake, noticing the snap back. She had to fight the urge to apologize, which only made her angrier. Why should she apologize? To anyone? Ever?

Drake stood up and put his hands in his pockets.
"Know what? Fuck this man. Go talk to someone else."
He would make his way to the door unsure why he was so angry. The two of them usually snipped and snapped at each other. That just how their relationship worked. So what made it not one this time? It didn't make any sense and yet he couldn't stop himself.

Gidget held her defensive posture until Drake turned around to walk off. She let herself deflate slightly, cradling her hand against her stomach and staring at her feet.
She refused to be the one to chase after him, even if it killed her to see him walk off.

Drake made it to the door and clinched his fist.
"His name is DJ. I'll send him over."
With that he walked out the door and slammed it shut behind him.

Gidget watched as Drake left, and tucked her knees up against her chest. She hid her face in her knees, ignoring the pain from the cut and the pain in her hand...
And she shook. No tears came out, but it took her nearly an hour until the shaking stopped.
