Going will only hurt you, Luna had told him that not ten minutes before he walked out the door, and at the time he hadn't listened to her, well, right about now he wishes that he had. He just hadn't been expecting it, sure, he'd always known that Trevor loved Raven, anyone with eyes could see that, but never, in his wildest imagination had he ever thought that Raven could love Trevor. To be honest, he'd never though that Raven could love anyone but him. He hadn't thought it was possible, not after all the graveyard picnics, the late-night strolls, and that one beautiful night in the coffin, they were meant to be together.
When she first told him that she wanted to break-up he had laughed, surely it was just a joke gone awry? Surely his amazing Queen of the Damned would never break-up with him, right? Then, when she told him it was because of Trevor, he had really started laughing, that is, until he saw her face; her beautiful, gothic-make-up-enhanced face that he realized she was serious. Her eyes, normally bright and cheerful were sad, but underneath that there was a spark of something he had never seen before, something that gave them a bit of that old-Raven shine back. She was in love with Trevor Mitchell, she had told him, and as she did so she got that old tone back in her voice, the tone that she used to have when she talked about him. It drove him mad.
How could his Raven; his sweet, amazing, vampire-loving Raven leave him, leave him and then go running off to Trevor. No, leave him for Trevor, how could she do that? How could she hurt him like that? Oh, he was hurt, that fact is indisputable, the pain was like being stabbed repeatedly with a wooden stake, the attacker never letting-up, not for one moment. At the time he had thought that was the worst thing that could ever happen to him, waking up night-by-dreadful-night only to find that she was not there, would never be there again. He'd been wrong, though, this, seeing her dancing with him, looking at him, smiling up at him, it was a thousand times worse, like he'd been left in the sun to slowly burn to death, not an ounce of shade in sight.
He hadn't gone to the wedding to fight; believe it or not, he'd actually went with the intention of making amends, he was ready to be done with this, ready to move on from her. He'd thought that he'd be able to, too, thought that just because he moved in with Luna, and went through the motions of being an average vampire that he'd be able to forget about Raven. Well, once again, he'd been wrong, he'd done a good job of kidding himself up until this point, a very good job, but he can eat with Luna, sleep with Luna, and pretend to be in love with Luna all he wants. It doesn't change his feelings for Raven, if anything it just makes them stronger, after being with Raven for so long, everything about Luna seems mediocre, which, or course, isn't her fault, it's the curse of coming after greatness.
Right now he is going back to her, back to Luna, back to the mansion, back to his worthless life, and he hates it. What he hates even more than his life, however, is that damn unborn baby, Raven's baby, with Trevor. Raven was never meant to have children, not without him, and now she is tied-down to Trevor Mitchell, and she will always, somehow, be tied to him. Somewhere inside of him he wonders if this is why Raven went for Trevor, if it's because she wanted children, but his better-half knows that's not the answer. If Raven had wanted children all she had to do was talk to him, they could have adopted, they would have found a way. No, the reason Raven is with Trevor, as he saw earlier when he looked into her eyes, is because she loves him, she truly, for whatever terrible reason, loves him. Which means that he will have to deal with it, suck it up and deal with this, with life without her, forever. He will go home to Luna, and he will act like everything is okay, and she will know something is wrong, but he won't tell her. He'll just continue to die inside slowly, forever, without her.
