Aden couldn't help himself. He glanced at the door that led to the Nexus every time he passed it. He glowered at himself, knowing he had sworn the place off after Reno. He had been staying home, sleeping, and only sleeping, with Naomi, and doing all the things he used to do.

There was no more singing, there was only work. There was no Reno, there was only work.

Aden was hollowing out his insides and it showed on his face. He was becoming gaunt and constantly tired looking. He was ruthless in his business ethics and killed without second thoughts.

Aden stared hard at the door to the Nexus and finally through his bottle of scotch at it, watching the glass shatter and spray amber liquid all over the floor and wall. Aden scowled.

It had been two months; Aden knew he should be over it, but he wasn't.

[[when Aden and Naomi are not making trips to the Nexus, time passes more quickly, hence though only a few days have passed in Midgar/the Nexus, it's been considerably longer for Aden and Naomi.]]
