The two entered the hotel, forgetting their hands were still together and they were giggling two kindergartners. V smiled and Jared's face reflected pure shock and horror. Jared dragged Mina into his room and sat her down.

"Explain." He demanded.

Mina couldn't bring herself to look at him. She sat on the edge of her bed, twiddling her thumbs, trying not to make a big deal.
"I kissed Teague." Mina said as if it was an everyday thing.

"You WHAT?!" Jared shouted.

"This is like really awkward...I kissed him because I love him." Mina shrugged.

"I can't believe this..." Jared began pacing.

"Wow! You totally got her!" V giggled.

Teague looked down at the floor. "V..."

She playfully punched him on the shoulder. "Oh Teague, I'm joking. I see what's going on here." V winked.

"Huh? You do?" He was really confused, was he that obvious?

"I've always known you liked her." V's eyes sparked more than usual.

"V, you're crying." Teague guiltily pointed out.

"No no...I'm just," her breath hitched like she was holding back painful sobs, "I'm just really happy for you!" V wiped her eyes on her sleeve.

"I'm really sorry." Teague squeezed her hand.

"Teague, you deserve happiness more than anyone...and as long as you're happy, I'm happy." She wanly smiled at him.

He doubtfully looked at her.

"Really, Teague. I'm fine." She sniffed.

Teague hugged her. "Thank you so much, V."

When she pulled away, she'd recovered very quickly.
"I know. I'm awesome." She teased. "Well I for one am craving potstickers." She grabbed her coat and hung it on her arm. "I'm going to get Chinese!"

"Why are you making such a big deal? I said I was sorry." Mina rolled her eyes, but behind them there were buckets of tears and years of sadness.

Jared sharply turned and looked at her. "No, you didn't."

"Well.." crap I was supposed to do that first. "I meant to." Mina lamely replied.

"How could you do this to me? Please, Mina." Jared was furious but the hurt in his voice was obvious.

"Jared, it's not like I faked loving you. It's just...ugh." Mina threw her hands up in frustration.

"But why him, Mina? How could you love such a monster?" Jared shouted, loud enough for anyone to hear.

"Well it doesn't sound like things are going too well in there." Teague wondered.

Mina jumped up. "He is not a monster, Jared!"

"Oh yeah? Tell me what makes him so good!" He yelled, louder than he meant to.

"He cares about me, He's gorgeous, he's always concerned about me, Did I mention he's gorgeous?, And he's always keeping things exciting." Mina defended.

"Oh and I'm none of those things? He's always torturing you, Mina. What's going to happen after this trip is over? You think he'll just give up the curse?" Jared was livid.

"He cares about me. We'll figure out something."

"Well it's not like he can pass it to Charlie!" The minute the words came out of his mouth, he instantly wished he could take them back.

Mina's back stiffened and tears uncontrollably flowed down her cheeks. She ran out and passed Teague in the hall. Before he could catch her, she ran into her room and locked the door.

"And I'm the bad guy?" Teague smirked.

Yup. Nice Going Jared.
