((If Script weren't so totally messed up at the mo, she might be excited over the fact that two boys are totally obsessing over her.))

Skittery stopped at the door to the parlor, trying to ignore the fact that Maggie was in there crying. He cleared his throat, not even looking in there. "Some girl named Gypsy is staying in the house and she's hooking up with the guy who...the guy who took you to the brothel."

((Haha, we're so mean to them  )) She sniffled, turning to stare at him. "I--what?" Gypsy? Why would she be here? |

He repeated himself, his voice completely emotionless. He just wanted to get out of there.

She swallowed the lump forming in her throat. "Mike...I..." she choked back a sob.

Something in her voice made him stay, for now. Probably the tears. "What, Mags? You what?" Lied to me? Kept secrets from me?

She stared at him a minute, then vaulted off the couch and into his arms. "Mike, I'm so sorry!" She said it on a sob.

He let out a deep sigh, but wrapped his arms around her all the same. He was sorry, too. Sorry he had been such a fool.

She cried against his chest, and everything came pouring out in a sobbing rush. "I'm such an idiot, Michael! You're amazing and wonderful and everthing I want! I was just so in love with him and it hurts to let that go! But you saved me, and I care so much about you, and I'm sorry I hurt you!"

He clenched his jaw; now he couldn't help but wonder if it was all just lies. Did she mean any of it. He put his hands on her shoulders and pushed her away, at army's length. He looked straight into her eyes as he spoke. "Maggie, if I ask you a question, will you tell me the honest to god truth?"

She nodded, sniffling and red-eyed. "Yes. Yes, Mike, I swear I will." She couldn't do this to him. She couldn't do to him what Sebastian had done to her. It wasn't who she was.

"If he came down here right now and told you he wanted you back, would you say yes?"

She froze. She actually had to think about that a second. And her answer surprised her. "No." She blinked even as she said it. "No, I wouldn't. I can't. It's too hard. I--I want to be happy. I want to be with someone who is happy. Sebastian, with the way he is right now...he's not that person."

He nodded slowly. Then dropped his arms back to his sides. "I'm gonna take a walk."
