Aila:  I can handle him!  *hmmph!*

Hugo: Oh, I know you can.  You just look like you could use some comforting ... or better yet, cheesy bread!

Aila:  *grits teeth*  It's stupid and he's stupid and...and....*closes her eyes, shivering with rage*

Hugo: *frowns and places a tentative hand on her arm*

Aila:  *feels Hugo's hand on her arm and doesn't, all at once*  I'll never understand why he would do that to me.  I would have...*doesn't want to say it, especially considering her current circumstances, but it needs saying anyway*...I would have loved him if he could have told me the truth!  I...he wants us to be friends, but what is friendship without trust?  It isn't anything!  It isn't anything at all!  *sinks to her knees and then bows her head to the ground, angrily pounding her fist against it...*

Hugo: *drops down besides Aila and grabs her fist, holding it in his two hands.  Whispers.* Don't.

Aila:  *finally cracks up, sobbing from the very pit of her gut, utterly miserable*  I have all the love in the world, and yet I can't focus on anything but the one person that hurt me.  It's all so stupid!  *throws herself into Hugo's arm and sobs*

Hugo: *holds her tightly rests his chin on the top of Aila's head* You do have all the love in the world, Aila.  *quietly* That doesn't mean that everyone is deserving of it.

Aila:  *sniffle*

Hugo: *still holding her tightly*

Aila:  I sound ungrateful when I really shouldn't.  But...it's not right for people to lie to one another if they say they care about that person.  I want to make [him] understand that.  I don't think he ever will and it's not fair.

Hugo: You don't sound ungrateful, Aila.  He really hurt you.  And ... *bites his lip for a moment* You need to let it out.  *quietly* I know that if I hold things in too long, they just build and build and that's not good at all.

Aila:  *sniffles*  It's....*looks for words and fails*

Hugo: *squeezes her*

Aila:  I...I'll be allright, it's just...he doesn't get it.  I wish he would.

Hugo: Guys are dumb, trust me.

Aila:  You aren't.  *tries to laugh and does, a little*

Hugo: *chuckles* I'll say this once - I can be.

Aila:  *laughs through her tears*  But you don't stay dumb.  You learn.

Hugo: I think some people would say that is up for debate.

Aila:  Everything you've ever learned about love, you're putting to very good use with Stallion.  So yes, you've learned a lot.

Hugo: Yeah, but it wasn't easy to learn.

nash, hugo
