Axton sat across from Gaige at the both. She played with her nails while he talked, not really paying any attention. She would respond every few seconds to try and pretend to be listening. Axton laughed and she looked up.
"Obviously you aren't listening. You just agreed to sleep on the floor in my room tonight!"
"You caught me. I was totally ignoring you."
"Gaige? Do you want a drink or something? You seem kinda bored."
"Ya think? I've been sitting here with you while you went on about Angel knows what, and I have been doing nothing but sleeping the whole time!"
"Ouch. So, do you wanna go kill something or drink or go on a good date with blood and body parts everywhere?"
"Sounds alot better than sitting around with you all day. Lets go, Ax. I wanna check out Deathtrap's new upgrade!"
Axton and Gaige left the bar, and Maya watched them go. Her date hadn't gone so well either. She just couldn't get a conversation going.
"So, Krieg? How long have you been insane?"
"Since My little girl and wife died. I'm glad I found you. I'd have probably killed myself before I was 40 ."
"I'm so happy that your outbursts are so little now. You make sense, and it makes me love you even more." She put her head on his chest, and he let her lay against him. He placed his hand on hers, and she pulled it close to her face. She hugged his hand and kissed it, then placed it back where it had been.
"Krieg, I love you."
"I love you more."
"Lets go punch in some faces with Gaige and Axton."
Krieg smiled. "Sounds like a date!"
Krieg and Maya left the bar and ran after the other couple. Zer0 watched them leave. He stood up from the corner he sat in. Alice grabbed his arm as he tried to follow. "Be careful." She quickly kissed his visor and returned to her work. She pricked and poked at the Eridium in front of her, careful not to touch it. He ran his hand through her hair and turned. Sal followed the other Vault Hunters, and they activated the fast travel.
