The hooded man's face looked irritated, “if this rift causes an issue collecting the books, that’ll be bad for me.” The hooded man looked intensely at the crystal ball showing the three talking, “I’ll wait and see how this plays out, if it doesn’t get in my way I won’t interfere.” Mya was still looking at the boys surprised with the information she had just heard, “I think I need some time to think about this.” Mya stared at the ground blankly not knowing what to do. Rouge nodded, “I understand, take as much time as you need.” Lex trying to win mya back makes a dig at Rouge, “just remember Mya I’m warm and nice and he’s a cold jerk.” Mya walked away from the boys leaving them at the field as she headed back to the inn.
Rouge looked at Lex and sighed, “we can only give her time now.” Lex rolled his eyes, “yeah, whatever.” Rouge looked at the ground, “we should’ve given her space.” Lex scuffs at the comment Rouge made, “that doesn’t matter she should be jumping at the chance to be with me.” Rouge looked over at Lex with a stink eye, “and why’s that.” Lex puffs out his chest like he had done something incredible, “because she loves me.” “You don’t know how she feels,” Rouge pointed out to Lex. Lex sparked, “I know how she feels, she told me she loved me when I was being mean to her.” Rouge sighed, “and you hurt her.” “But she should’ve forgiven me,” Lex quickly pointed out. Rouge sighed at Lex’s stupidity, “Lex, you’ve never had a female friend, let alone a girlfriend.” “and,” Lex asked.

“If you hurt them, their feelings can sway,” Rouge informs him. Lex glared at Rouge, too full of himself to believe it, “why would it.” “Because you hurt her,” Rouge told him once again but this time in an irritated tone.” Lex stood there silent. Rouge sighed, “Women are complicated when it comes to affairs of the heart.” “You sound like an old man,” Lex so rudely interrupts. “I have experience,” Rouge told him. Lex was silent for a moment, then decided to finally speak up, “what do we do now?” “We wait and see,” Rouge said with a calm voice. “I have a feeling she’s going to pick neither of us,” Lex nervously replied. Rouge nodded, “that is a possibility.” “But whatever she chooses, we must respect that choice.” Lex looked at Rouge curiously, “so we can remain on good terms,” Lex asked. Rouge nodded once again, “Yes, we both care for her and want her to stay in our lives, so this is the best course of action.” “Let’s head back and wait for her answer in the morning,” Lex suggests. Rouge smiled, “that’s a good idea, that’ll give her plenty of time to think.” They both walk back to the inn together anxiously awaiting Mya’s reply.
