Rating: TBA

Sen made his way straight from the Infirmary to Kain's office. He was exhausted and in need of a shower, but he needed to see Kain more. His foot still hurt, but not as much as it had. He knocked on the door and walked in, looking tired, drained and a lot older than he actually was.

"Kain? Are you around?"

Kain was suddenly standing and embracing Sen, "Sen. It will be okay. Sword's strong he'll make it through. He's just gotta learn to cope with the changes. It'll be fine." He said gently trying to comfort the man in his arms.

He clung to the man tighter. "It.... it's not just that... although... it's all my fault... he overdosed because of me... my fault, all my fault."

He pulled away from the embace, punching the wall. "I'm falling apart! I can't cope... I... everything... Sword, Ky... all of it..."

Kain took a hold of Sen's hand that punched the wall and led him into the bedroom. He sat him down and sat beside him, "Sen. I want to make something very clear to you." He said looking to Sen's eyes with a hard seriousness about him, "It was not your fault. Sword made a decision, a very bad one, but he made it himself. You in no way influenced him. He could have dealt with things a little better," Kain really didn't know why Sword had really shot up. He didn't know Sen had broken up with him. But he knew what he was saying was right, "You didn't hand him the needle and drugs and say 'here, shot up'. This was not your fault." His gaze softened now, "And as for Ky.... You need to tell him to decide. If you don't him with Ky and you at the same time. You need to tell him to decide between you and Ky. He can't have both. I know it might frighten you to do so. But trust me when I say this Sen. He will choose you."

He let Kain lead him to the bedroom, he wiped at his eyes. He felt like he'd cried so much lately, yet at the same time felt like he needed to cry and cry until there were no tears left or else he'd just explode. "He... I hurt him... I broke up with him and so he..." He sighed, thinking about just how close to loosing Sword he'd been. "When... they called time of death... my world crashed down around me..."

He grabbed a pillow, clutching it to his chest like an upset child. "I... I can't ask him to make that choice... He... he loves Ky and wants to be with him - and he's offered me Norman in return... I should be happy... but I'm not! I'm pissed off! When I wanted to be with Sword and Norman, Sword made me choose, made it clear I couldn't love them both but when HE loves two people... it's completely different! He's such a hypocrite!" So many bottled up, pent up emotions and thoughts flooded from him. "He offered me Norman, but he can't see it's too late! I already made my choice! I'm not gonna drag Norman's heart back and forth and start sleeping with him only for Sword to decide down the line that he doesn't want to share anymore!"

"No, Sen. It's not fair to you. You can't keep letting him abuse you like this. You need to tell him it's either you or Ky, he can't have both. If he loves like he says he does, then he'll come to you . And if he doesn't. Then you're better off without him. But I will tell you one thing, I will not stand idly by and watch him continue to do this to you and your emotions.You either make him chose or I will make his and your decision for you."

He clung tighter to that pillow, burying his face in it. "I was so happy... My birthday was the best day in my entire life... I thought that finally my life was sorting itself out... I really thought Sword and I had cracked this relationship stuff... But then he told me he loved Ky and... it was like he'd ripped my heart out... I know I'm selfish for not wanting to share and I know that I shouldn't hate Ky but I do... I hate him so much."

He curled up into a ball on the bed. "I hurt... my body aches... I'm so tired... Kain, so tired... I just... it's crushing me... pushing me harder and harder to the ground until I can't breathe!"

[therapist-kain.livejournal.com]

"You're not being selfish. People should be exclusive in relationships." He rubbed Sen's back, "Go ahead and cry if you need to, cry as much as you need. Do whatever you need to do right now Sen. It okay."

[dive-in-deep.livejournal.com]

He sobbed more, voice becoming harder to hear over those desperate tears, those tears that been building up. "Why can't he just love me? I know he isn't the romantic type... but... would it really hurt to show a little tenderness? Has this place really made him so hard and cold that his heart is stone?"

Kain didn't answer Sen. He knew that there was nothing he could say now to comfort him. He also knew that Sen just needed to get everything out. So he let the younger man vent and cry, rubbing his back and sitting there listening.

Sen choked on his tears, starting to hiccup, holding that pillow tighter, clutching at it like a lifeline. "I... I just want him to love me the way I love him... I want to be able to lay and talk to him without fear of arguing every time I open my mouth... I can talk to Norman about my dreams, my fears, my feelings... So why can't I do that with Sword? Why can't we just be a normal couple? Why does it have to be so hard? It's killing me inside!"

[therapist-kain.livejournal.com]

"Have you told him that? I mean exactly the way you just told me? I've come to realize that subtlety is lost on Sword. You need to be direct and to the point with him."

[dive-in-deep.livejournal.com]

He shook his head, wiping his eyes on the pillow. "I can't talk to Sword, every time I try we end up fighting. Sometimes... especially lately... I find myself even wondering whether the relationship is worth fighting for... I love him, I love him so damn much... but I don't know how much longer I can fight to make this work."

[therapist-kain.livejournal.com]

"You need to tell him that Sen. You need to make it clear. If you're going to make this work, you need to tell him straight out. It's either you or Ky. That you want to spend night talking about random things and that he needs to open up more to you. Sen, for your sake you need to do this."

[dive-in-deep.livejournal.com]

"I... I can't! I'm scared of him! And... I can't force him to be something he isn't. I can't force him to be romantic, I can't force him to open up, I can't force him to give up Ky. I just... I need to get a hold of myself and keep all these things inside so he doesn't find out."

[therapist-kain.livejournal.com]

"Sen. That is the last thing you need to do. I will say this again. You either tell him or I will. Or like I said before, I will make the decision for you both."

[dive-in-deep.livejournal.com]

"Nato... When I came to you... when I couldn't decide between them... you told me... you told me you knew which one I loved and that you knew which loved me... right?" He wiped at his eyes, making them even more red. "Tell me... am I taking the right path?"

[therapist-kain.livejournal.com]

Kain gently wiped the tears from Sen's face, "If you tell him what needs to be said." He said simply.
