[ It's been a few months since they began their "arrangement", and so far it has been quite... decent. They've been as they were, yes, but they've also been seeing each other outside of being housewardens. Even if a lot of their meetings have been framed as such.
(The physical intimacy has been quite intense, too.)
While people have definitely picked up that whatever is happening between them is more than just acquaintanceship, no one's been quite able to detect what is going on. There seem to be sightings of them sitting just close enough to suggest, fingers touched, hands held, and yet...
It's been fine. Vil hasn't denied it to Rook, who already knew.
But lately, whether it's some turn of the season causing it or some other frustration, they'd ended up bickering more than usual. Vil getting angry at Leona's lackadaisical attitude for things he finds important- Leona getting frustrated with Vil. All of it culminating in what ended up with them like this.
It was a pretty bad fight, one neither of them likely even remember how it began. Rather, it resulted in feeling offended at all his hard work being spit on, and Leona feeling as though he just isn't good enough and lashing out at Vil being judgmental.
(All either of them really wanted was to feel like they actually mattered and weren't being taken for granted.)
Vil had tried, at least, as much as he could have without growing too vulnerable- he was indeed, caring for Leona in ways he usually did not give others. He missed him when they were apart, and even if he was harsh, there was usually concern behind his actions.
But they probably went too far and hurt each other this time... so it's been some days since they've seen each other. He's hardly been able to focus, even if he seems like he's in control as usual. Rook's noticed, but he doesn't want to talk about it.
Does this mean they're breaking up? Leona hasn't even tried to contact him, and he found himself lingering outside Savanaclaw's mirror, then hesitating.
He's also casually dropped by on Spelldrive practice, with the excuse of checking on Epel (he usually does not)... but that jerk. Why is he even doing this?
Ugh. He feels foolish. And he ends up on the garden near Main Street, since most students have returned to their dorms by now. The sunset is nice from here, and he has homework to read, so he'll... just do it here.
The fact that Leona usually naps here has nothing to do with it. Hmph. ]
ยซ so this is love? hmm hmm hmm hmm. ยป
