Gokudera slowly walks to the door and opens it, looking around the room for some sign of damage. There is none and Phoenix is pacing back and forth by the window a knife from the kitchen in her hand but it drops to the floor when she sees him. His name is barely more than a whisper on her lips.

"Hayato." The girl walks quickly over to him and hugs him tightly, letting go and stepping back when he remains silent and unmoving. The silver-haired boy made no motion to hug her back or stop her retreat. "Well you're obviously mad at me so let's just get this over with. Huh."

Her jaw is set and there is a steely look in her eyes that show her to be the assassin she claims to be. Gokudera's mouth begins to open but he says nothing.

"Tch."

"Calm down. Just keep your mouth shut and you won't lose it."

Hayato avoids Ayden's eyes as he walks past her and into the bedroom. The red-haired girl follows him.

"Hayato I can tell you're mad so just have at it. It's easier for me to deal that way."

At the word 'deal' Gokudera's jaw clenches and he grinds his teeth, two words hissing out from between them.

"Shut up." Gokudera punches the wall and he bites his lip to try and control his words but he bites too hard and draws blood. "JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP!"

"Don't lose yourself Hayato. You need time to think. Just...try to get away or you'll say something you'll regret."

"NO! I can tell you're pissed and I want it out in the air right now! Although I can probably guess what you'll say. That you're disappointed in me? That you don't want me to do this? That it's going to break me? Well news flash, YOU CAN'T BREAK WHAT'S ALREAY BROKEN! This was my choice! Not yours!"

Gokudera glares at her and suddenly shoves her up against the wall.

"GODDAMN IT, AYDAN!" He slams his hand on the section of wall by Phoenix's ear. "Why can't you just fucking understand! I love you damn it. I don't...Tch. I 'm trying my fucking best to help okay! And you just have to fucking disregarded that and put yourself in these types of situations..." Gokudera looks into Phoenix's eyes, his expression softening just a bit. "You can't break what's already broken, but you can sure as hell fix it. And that's what I've been trying to do but it's like no matter what I try you just have to keep undoing everything. IT'S FUCKING FRUSTRATING!"

Gokudera bites back tears and Phoenix raises her chin in a slight defiance.

"You don't think I don't know that? You don't think that I don't realize what you are doing for me?" She gets in his face. "But this isn't your decision to make Hayato. I told you already, if I have a chance to get you out, I am taking it. It's my life and I'll make the choices!" Phoenix pushes Gokudera away from her. "I just saved your life! You could be a little grateful you know!"

Gokudera shakes his head.

"It's your life and your choices. I see how it is." His jaw sets and he looks away for a second before looking Phoenix straight in the eye. "Then we obviously want two very different things. This is it, I guess. You want things your way and I want things mine. Goodbye Phoenix." Gokudera walks away, out of the bedroom and towards the door. "Have a nice life."

It's Gokudera calling her by her code name that sets Phoenix off.

"So you're just going to walk out then? See, I know it. I said you would leave just like all the rest." Phoenix shakes her head. "You know I did so much for you, I gave up everything for you! My friends, my family my LIFE! Everything I ever had is gone because I decided to trust you! Well apparently that was the wrong choice for me to make." She stares at Gokudera's back and her anger overflows. "I should have just killed you and gone for Tsuna. At least then I wouldn't have had my heart torn in two. Again! But if you want to go then fine, go tell Reaper it's over and he can't use you against me anymore. Hell just tell him I'm dead because by the time he makes it up here I will be." Phoenix stomps over to Gokudera and forces him to look at her. "I told you last night. I'm suicidal and oh look, I've got nothing left. AGAIN! Nice knowing you. It was fun."

Phoenix turns towards to balcony but Gokudera grabs her arms and holds her in place.

"You think that trusting me was the problem? It's your fucking selfishness that's the problem! For once, can't you just think about what I want? Can't you think about what I want for your fucking happiness? I'm trying my best here and yet here you are, threatening me with committing suicide. You know what? Fuck you!" Gokudera lets go of Phoenix's arm and runs a hand through his hair as she walks to the balcony. "No...I mean...FUCK!" He yells in aggravation before storming over to her and turning her around. Hayato grabs Aydan roughly by the shoulders and kisses her harshly, pulling back after a few seconds. "I can't...I...I can't do this right now, Aydan. I need time to fucking think. Just don't...don't do anything stupid. I just need some air...and some space."

"Too little...too late."

There is no emotion in Phoenix's face as she forces his hands off her and walks out onto the balcony. A look of disbelief appears on his face before suddenly becoming very serious.

"Fine. Then have it your way. Do what you want. See if I fucking care."

Gokudera walks to the door, throws it open and walks out, slamming the door in the process.

"IF THAT'S HOW YOU WANT IT FINE! BUT I'M NOT COMING BACK THIS TIME!"

She slams the balcony door with enough force to shatter the glass. Gokudera ignores her yells and walks down the hall a few door before leaning against a wall and falling to the ground. He presses his knees up to his chest and buries his face into them.

"What the fuck is going on?"
