Rena felt awful. She'd clearly crossed some line. Problem was she had no idea how to fix it. She wasn't good with these sorts of things. Xenia was the peace keeper of the two of them.
Rena sat down, burying her head in her lap, thinking. How could she make it up to him? She had to have done something really, really wrong if he'd choked her like that.
"Okay...I don't know about you but...I really don't want to be anywhere near Team East right now," Xenia whispered to Kennedy. "Want to go kitten shopping?"

"I'm sorry, but no, not now," she said, "You may not want to be near them, but I'm going back. I want to know more."

Being a planner would probably help about now. Rena was still at a complete loss as to what to do.
Xenia sighed. She really liked to stay back when people got all worked up like that. If she was involved she'd try to ease the situation up but when a problem was between others it could get messy when others tried to intervene.
"I'm using you as a human shield if things get messy," Xenia joked to Kennedy.

"Understood," Kennedy said, with a small smile. "I don't think it'll come to that."

"So um...Is there something we should be doing?" Xenia asked Kennedy.
Head still buried in her lap, Rena continued to think about what she should do. She was having no success. Somehow she'd really screwed up.

"I don't know," Kennedy admitted.
In his room, Jerome was silently cleaning the entirety of the wound, looking at his arm. They were deep, but he'd be fine.
For how long?

Enough was enough. Rena wasn't a planner. She was much better at responding to things. She sprinted to Jerome's door and knocked. "It's Rena. I need to talk to you."
Xenia did some nervous stretches. "I guess we'll just wing it."

"Me too," Kennedy said.
Jerome didn't open his door. "What do you want?" he questioned.

Rena wasn't that great with words. "Can I come inside?" she asked. If he could see Rena's expression it would be easier. Her eyes typically did the talking for her.

He opened the door, not saying a word for a few moments. Then he shook his head, "I'm sorry. No." He closed it on her.

Her heart sunk when Jerome closed the door. Yes, something was seriously wrong. Had she messed up that badly? Or was this about his past? And was his wound okay? She'd never actually had time to properly examine it.
"I'll just wait here until you're ready to see me then," she said, sitting down and leaning against the door. She'd be no worse off trying to plan here than somewhere else. What could she say to him? How could she apologize? And had she actually done something wrong? Regardless of whether she'd done something wrong or not she still needed to properly apologize. She'd really upset Jerome.

He sat down on the chair he had been at, next to the desk. He looked at his arm, but that didn't matter now. He thought of the past, of the things he'd seen, the things he'd lived through...
He never wanted to go back to those memories, and that's where she had sent him. Never again.
I think we're about done?
