5 People Will Dated and the 1 That Stayed

"Layla's worried."
"I'm fine," Will muttered as he pulled off The Guardian's white domino mask from his face. He shrugged off the upper portion of his red, white, and blue uniform. "It…I should've known a long-distance relationship wouldn't work, even if both of us could fly to visit one another."
Warren frowned.
There were dark splotches over his arms and chest, which would eventually turn blue and than a putrid green and yellow as Will healed. There was one particularly vicious mark on the pale patch of skin that connected Will's neck to his shoulder. Warren could see each individual indention of teeth. Will was invulnerable. It would take a lot to bruise Will to that degree and few things could do that, and even fewer people.
"You and Romaine-"
"Are over. Officially."
Warren, still in uniform as Inferno, made no movement off of Will's bed. The fresh smell of smoke and debris clung to his body.

Will sighed.
"The Guardian and Saiyaman won't work together anymore either unless things are absolutely falling to shit," Will remarked in finality. His fingers absently traced the dark finger-shaped bruises littered over the grooves of his hipbones that jutted above the hem of his pants.
He didn't notice Warren staring.
