It had already been a crappy week. Friends had dissapeared almost every day it seemed like. And now this. A huge fight the other night and Rochelle and Nick were no longer a--whatever they were. But according to him? Apparently not a couple.

Asshole.

Then again was it suprising? Rochelle wasn't stupid, she knew from the start what he was like when they first met. She'd even silently wondered if it was gonna work out before they even started, hence their fumble of a beginning for a relationship. Or not a relationship. Hell, they didn't even know what it was the entire time. As intimate as they would get, if either of them tried to take a step closer one of them would panic and they would go back to square one. It was why she never mentioned that kinda-sorta-not-really boyfriend of hers much. And that's how it was for a while.

But at the same time... Nick could be--sweet. In his own way, but. Yeah. If she had to admit it she was entertained by the idea of something with the man at first, though his asshole personality kept her at bay. But slowly, in the middle of the apocalypse, she grew to trust the man with her life. Hell, for all the crap that came out of his mouth he was a friend. And it grew into that something a little more here. And for everything that happened, all the crap? Rochelle didn't regret all those close moments.

Good god. This was starting to sound like something she would have had in fucking high school. She was nearly embarassed to talk about it. Rochelle was the sensible, level-headed one, not the type to get into stupid and complicated relationships. And she wasn't one to wear her heart on her sleeve either. She could take care of herself, deal with her own shit. Losing people was something home had her used to by now, and she knew a breakup wasn't the end of the world. But shit if it didn't still suck.

It made her appreciate and look forward to the plans she was making with her friends all the same. Shit, for everything that happened this week? She was DEFINATELY looking forward to seeing some girlfriends.
