"Yeah sure. He’ll go back to the States in a few days then come back in like, six months, with a girl on his arm. And he’ll only be coming back to see you ‘cause you’re his friend! Then he’ll say they’re getting married or she’s pregnant or some shit like that and- and I swear to god… I’m going to go live on that ghost planet forever or something."
Under the covers she curled up like a little kid, letting her fears get the best of her. Araelia had never been the greatest at blocking things out. She was always very affected, but somehow never managed to show it. It was a blessing and a curse, but thank god Mona could usually stand her mood swings.
"Come on, Arae. You know that isn’t true… He cares about you, he really does." Themona paused, trying to figure what else to say, "I don’t think you want to live on the ghosty-ghost world. It is bloody terrifying.” This is going swimmingly, she thought drily, “Besides, Carter wouldn’t just disappear to America without having some odd thing or two to say, not including a goodbye.” She probably wasn’t getting through to Arae, but how was she supposed to tell her that Carter was in love with her, because Themona knew that he would be mad if she told Arae. Mad and anxious.
"Yeah sure, I'm just an ex to him. I bet I'm just no more than a friend. I thought he didn't feel anything for me so I lied and said I didn't and it was mutual. I cant believe this.." Arae sniffled. "Yeah he'd probably say something. He's too nice to just leave."
