Sorry
Theta was sitting on the balcony outside his room, wrapped in a blanket. Before him, the landscape of a Gallifreyan winter lay outstreached, the turquoise light of the moons reflecting off the snow. The night had a unique light blue tint to it, only slightly ruined by the orange glow from the room.
Gripping the blanket closer, Theta sighed. He couldn't sleep. He was worried about Koschei. Who knew how much trouble he would get in for the fight?
Theta was convienced that the whole thing was his fault anyway. If he hadn't pressed Koschei too far…
Suddenly, a familiar shadow loomed over him. He turned around to see Koschei's silhouette in the doorframe, in front of the room's orange light.
Theta turned back to the view. "Hey," he said softly.
No answer.
"… are you… in serious trouble?"
Still no answer.
"Are you mad at me?"
Nothing
The pain in Theta's chest grew. Was Koschei trying to guilt him to death?
Finally, he couldn't take it anymore.
"Kos, please talk to me…"
Suddenly, Theta found himself in an embrace, Koschei's arms wrapped tightly around him. He became aware that Koschei was sniffiling.
"I'm sorry Theta… I'm really sorry…"
Theta managed to turn and look at Koschei's face; it was wet with tears. He felt the water building behind his eyes as he stared into his friend's green orbs.
"I'm sorry Kos…" and he broke down.
"You shouldn't be… I didn't get my nose obilterated." Fresh tears began to roll down Koschei's cheeks. "It's just, I've been called a freak by everyone… and… the thought of you…"
He couldn't continue. He quickly buried his head into Theta's shoulder, thightening the embrace.
The two sat there, wrapping themselves in each other's forgivness. The lights in the room automatically deactivated, as part of the mandatory Light's Out, leaving them in the strange blue green light of the moons, with a valley of snow beneath them.
And before the two drifted to sleep, Theta spoke softly into Koschei'e ear.
"You are not a freak."
Ok, this one may seem a little slashy. It's not supposed to be, but if you really want it, than squint. Other than that, it's just two extremly close friends, both with childhood issues, upset over a fight.
Since this one and the one before it were sad and upseting, the next few will be funny.
