I bet you thought it was over when they got together! Well, it's never over that easy! I do not own any characters. Well, Tourniquet Kae is mine, and June is mine. But Nati is natsukileeRKOlovers' and the rest are the WWE's. They don't really own them, but you get the picture.

Six months have passed

Kae smiled up at Jeff, who had an arm around her waist. They were finally back in Cameron, visiting his father and family. Kae was cooking for the family, something she'd never really been able to do in her house. She liked the chance. Tilting her face up to him, the girl stole a kiss before shooing him away. "Go! You don't get to have it till it's done!"

Raising an eyebrow, Nati laughed from across the room. "Not in the kitchen anyway!"

Kae threw a limp noodle at her, testing the other that had stuck to the fork. "Pasta's done. Sauce is done. Mix time!" She called Nati over to hold the pasta pan so she could pour the sauce into it, causing Jeff to back away. Before pouring however, she took out a spoon. "Try this."

Jeff's face showed incredulation. "Why does she get to try it?!"

"Because she's female!" The girls laughed as Jeff crossed his arms over his chest. Nati tried the sauce for her friend, nodding.

"Pretty good there, Kae. When did you learn to cook?" The two started laughing again, and the blond finally finished the meal she'd been cooking since a couple of hours ago.

"Matt! Gil! Shannon! Dinner!" She shooed Jeff to the table, filling bowls with the German spaghetti she'd worked so hard on. Placing them in front of the other five people, she stood behind Jeff, waiting for opinions from everyone.

Matt gestured toward the cupboard. "Get yourself some food, Kae. You can eat in front of us."

The girl laughed. "Chef eats last. After opinions. Good, boys?" The four nodded in unison. Shaking her head, she got her own and sat near Jeff. The boy, who had a hand under the table to begin with, rested it on her knee. She smiled at him, shifting a little closer to his chair, and started eating. After a few bites, she made the only criticism to the meal. "Needed more pepper."

Sitting in Jeff's room, the girl fidgeted with his piano while he talked on the phone to someone. She started playing an old tune she'd picked up from the Advanced Instrumental class she'd visited all the time, then stopped when he hung up the phone with a sigh. She walked over to where he lay on the bed, leaning over him. "Tired?"

He patted his stomach. "Full. And fat."

She stared at him with blank eyes for a moment. "You. Are. Not. Fat. Nice try, mister."

He laughed, pulling her down to lay with him. "And your cooking is fantastic. At this rate, I might be."

She smiled at him, resting her head on his shoulder, and picked up his cell phone. "You have two new texts."

Raising an eyebrow, he took the phone, reading them. He closed it just as quickly and put it on his nightstand. "Don't worry about those. Nothing important."

Kae looked up at him for a moment, then looked back down, a bit confused. No matter how important the message, he always shared them with her. Suspicion must have been evident on her face, because he explained again. "Nothing to worry about, love. Trust me."

Though still suspicious, she decided to let it go this time. "Okay. I trust you."

The next day, Jeff left early in the morning, leaving a note for Kae on their pillow. She walked out of their room slowly, stopping at Nati's door. "Has Jeff seemed... strange to you lately?" she asked as soon as her friend was aware of her presence.

The brunette thought for a moment. "Not too much. He's been limping less. And he's been tired a lot. Why?"

The blond shook her head, leaving the room again. "Nothing. Just... wondering." A bit quicker, she headed up to Matt's room. She knocked on the door, waited a moment, and then walked in. The boy lay on his bed, staring at the ceiling. He wasn't paying much attention.

Realizing she was there, he sat up, brow furrowed. "Hey, Kae, have you noticed Jeff being weird lately."

Concerned, she questioned him. "As in, tired and in less pain?"

"Yeah." When Kae nodded, Matt sighed. "I thought so. The last time I remember him being like this..." Kae looked down at her shoes, letting him confirm her suspicions with the rest of his sentence. "He was on the painkillers."

Jeff fell asleep early that night. Kae reached for his phone as soon as he was in a deep enough sleep, opening the two from the day before. Both were from doctor's offices. "Prescription ready for pick up," they read. The girl knew exactly where to look to find out what they were. Opening the top drawer of his bedside table, she found two fresh bottles of the painkillers.

Anger brimming, she jerked him out of sleep. "How could you?!" She screeched at him, throwing the bottles on the bed.

Slightly dazed, he looked at her for a moment before realizing what was happening.

She continued regardless. "You promised me! You promised me you wouldn't! How could you?!"

Jeff sat up, sighing. "Kae, I can explain. I-"

"You swore to me you wouldn't do this!" She shook her head, walking toward the door. "You swore to me, Jeff! You said you loved me too much!"

"Kae, I do love you! I just-"

"No, Jeff!" She shook her head. "Don't try it! You lied to me! I'm..." Stopping the tears behind her eyes, Kae made her face a stone mask. No emotion could show through. "I'm done Jeff."

"Kae, please!"

"Done." And with that the girl walked out of the room, out of the house, and down the street, to Shannon's for the rest of the night.

The girl took a long shower the next morning, disposable razor in hand. She thought for a while before breaking the blades out of it. She held one to her shoulder, speaking out loud. "If he can break his promise... So can I." And with that, she slid it over her skin, parting the skin and letting the angry blood flow from a new wound, over an old scar.

Oh dear, we do have some drama now, don't we? Jeff's painkillers, Kae's cutting, and no end in sight! How will things go? See more in Extreme Behavior Part Eight: 4 A.M. Forever!
