"I'm sorry, but I can't trust you anymore."
The words hang in the air. Chris is frozen, staring at you in stunned disbelief, hurt visible in his green eyes. He looks for all the world like a kicked puppy.
"Why not?" he asks.
"Why not?!" You scoff, fold your arms over your chest. "You came back here to kill Wyatt! You lied to us, Chris."
"Because I knew you wouldn't want to know the truth!" he yells, hurt turning to anger. "I didn't come back to kill him; I came back to save him!"
"You expect us to believe you?"
"You have to."
"No, we don't. And I don't want to see you again. Get out."
Anger fades away, is replaced with something close to pain as he orbs out of the attic to Goddess-knows-where.
You can't quite bring yourself to care.
