“I’m sorry, there’s simply nothing left here for you.” The words were softly spoken, almost gentle, but the reaction was as expected, a sharp, startled breath snapping through the air.
“That isn’t true… There’s no way that could be-!” The younger of the pair made a frustrated noise, ran a hand through short hair in agitation when it seemed there was no reason for the abruptness of the statement. “Why now?”
“Why not now?” Looking over his shoulder, the original speaker swept long strands behind him. “It’s not like we have anything in common anymore. You have your goals, and they hardly get along with mine.”
“I wouldn’t have stayed here at all if you hadn’t convinced me to. You’re a pretty persistent bastard when you decide you set your mind to something. I’ve missed chances because of you.”
The slender figure stepped in close, and the older of the two just rested his hands on the younger’s chest, walking him backwards with an almost wicked looking smile. “I know. You should have taken them.”
Violet eyes widened, but the shove that had been placed in the middle of his chest sprawled him out on the array, it flaring to life around him. He didn’t know if it was better or worse when broken laughter assaulted his ears, the elder sin spinning to flee the room.
Either way, it would hardly be the last time he trusted too much.
