There was no sound for a minute before quite footsteps approached the door and there was a click as it was unlocked, and the door opened slightly before the footsteps retreated.

Noble Scarlet had convinced Skuld to let Gojyo in. She hadn't wanted to see...anyone. The person she trusted more than anyone BETRAYED her. And on top of everything else...

Skuld sat down and curled up at the corner of her bed, wrapped in a blanket, her hair a mess and her eyes red from tears, otherwise here expression was blank. She mostly felt hollow inside.

Gojyo frowned. Setting down the carton of strawberry ice cream on the floor where he was sure not to kick it, the redhead sat next to his roomie on the bed. She had obviously been crying but more than sad she looked broken, lost. What the fuck had happened while he was gone?

He wanted to ask Noble Scarlet but instead wrapped his arms around her, pulling the girl gently to lean against him. "Skuld? It's me, Gojyo. I'm here," he said quietly, not really sure if she was aware of his presence.

Skuld immediately clung to him, burying her head against his shoulder. She had been alone this whole time because...she hadn't known who to go to. Urd had to deal with Belldandy.

It was a relief she had someone to cling to now that he was here.

"Oh, hey, hey! Easy!" Gojyo said, but didn't try to pull her off. He shifted his arms so they went around less awkwardly around her, then rubbed her back soothingly. "Hey, it's OK," he murmured. "What's wrong? What happened?"
