A/N: wow really short chapter sorry -0- I'm typing this on a nook and its rather difficult aha. But, I'll try tto upload more! Oh gosh. I hope y'all enjoy

Max's POV.

I walk downstairs with Mana, holding her arm to support her. She takes her jacket and we bid farewell to Cecillia, walking out of the mannor and stepping outside. Still holding her, I walk her back to her home. She hesitates at the front door, but I can only imagine why.

"I-I can't, Max. I really can't." She sounds like she's going to start up crying again. I hug her,"It's ok darling. I'll be here the whole time," I let go of her as she takes a deep breath. "Whenever you're ready," I say.

"I'm ready."

Before we can open the door, however, a voice stops us.

"Wait!" I belevie that's Ray's voice? I turn around to look at him. He runs over to us, "I'll go in with you. I need to talk to Kyle."

"What a coincidence," I started, "so do we."

Barrett's POV

I held Kyle's hand tightly. I want him to get better. I want everything to get better.

The door down stairs opens. I hear yelling and people coming upstairs. Kyle's awake now. I stand up. He asks what's going on but even I don't know at this point. Max walks in with Manna, Ray behind them. Instantly I become angry.

"What the Hell do you guys want?" I ask standing up, my hands balled up into fists at this point.

"Barrett, we just want to talk things over." Max said, his voice as calm as ever. He was holding Mana's hand.

"Talk about what? About how everything now is all fucked up? And what the hell is Ray doing here?"

"Barrett, calm down."

I bit my lower lip and tired hard not to start yelling. Too much is going on all at once and its pissing me off a great deal.

"Max, Mana. I'd appreciate it if you left me, Kyle, and Ray alone for a little bit. We need to talk about some… things." Max nodded, walking a reluctant Mana out of the room, closing the door behind them. Ray stared at me - no, glared at me. I sat on the edge of Kyle's bed. How the hell am I going to explain everything with both of them in here? I groaned. Kyle sat up, using the spare pillows to support himself. Ray walked closer. I shot him a glare, only to see him smirk.

"Tell him Barrett. Tell him how you-"

"Don't even start with that right now, Ray." I started to grit my teeth. Fuck.

"Barrett…?" Kyle asks softly behind me. I look back at him and rest my hand on top of his.

"Kyle… no matter what I say, promise you won't see me differently. Please." I started shaking. How did I get this nervous?

"Of course honey."

Its too hard to look him in the eyes, but I have to. I slowly move my own eyes to look at him, despite my wants. His eyes are beautiful, but I have no time to tell him about them now. I take a deep breath,

"Kyle, back when you left for the island… me and Ray had somewhat of a relationship. We both loved you, but obviously couldn't have you, so we pretended with each other. But… it got out of hand and I left Ray without saying anything to him and…" I looked over at thhe other male, "I shouldn't have done that. Ray, I'm sorry."

He didn't respond, the smirk that was once plastered on his face now gone. "Ray-"

"Sorry? Do you really think that's enough for me?"

I knew he wouldn't take just a sorry. I guess I'm in some deep shit now.
