"I'm sorry...." she said turning and running out of the tavern.

"Avean!...Damnation." He said getting up and chasing after her. Why did every one of their encounters at the Tavern result in her running from him in tears...Some night to relax. He continued after her, neglecting to retrieve his cloak beforehand.

Avean turned, crying still. "DAMN IT RITH DON'T YOU GET IT?!" she asked, tears rolling down her cheeks faster than before.

Rith slid to a stop a few feet infront of her as he watched her turn before him in tears. "I understand, that despite you saying you've made your decision, you're still experiencing love for this other man." He replied bewildered as to why it is so hard for her to express what she truly felt to people.

She turned, her face buried in her hands as she sobbed. Avean's hair draped over her face, hiding her emotions as if they were nothing.

"Avean...Go to him." Rith said softly as he stepped up closer to her, placing his hands on her shoulders gently. Rith could tell that this is clearly not what she wanted, so if its one thing he liked to do, it was help making people happier. In this case it was stepping aside and letting her go like in the old proverb.

She nodded and turned. Avean leaned in and kissed him on the cheek lightly then went to go find David.

He smiled and watched her run off nodding to himself acceptingly. "You did the right thing, Rith old boy." Rith said to himself as he sauntered back inside the bar...some night to unwind...
Rith returned to the bar with the look that he was just struck with a sack of doorknobs as he retook his seat at the bar. As he braced his head up in his hand on the bar he asked " Say bartender, you ever have the feeling your in the middle of something huge, but have no idea what it is?" to the bartender.

~A while later~ Avean ran back into the tavern, a stray tear flowing down her face. She took a seat in the corner and began to cry into her arms, mad and afraid.

David managed to follow her into the tavern. He saw her enter here or he thought she did. He looked around trying to find her. He then spotted her. She was crying. It almost seemed that she was beating herself up inside. He sighed. He knew what had happened. He didn't talk with her first about Raven staying at the house. He walked up to her and sat down next to her. "Do you want to talk?" he asked looking down at the table.

Avean shot a glance up, hoping it was Rith but it wasn't. "Why don't you go back to your girlfriend...at least you know she'll be their for you." she spat at him, turning away from him. Avean's eyes were still filled with anger, sadness and remorse.

"First, I'd like to say that she isn't my girlfriend." David replied, "Second, I don't know her that well. Third, I don't care for her. And lastly she wouldn't be there for me." While he talked he looked down at the table. It hurt him the way she spoke to him. But he knew that he had hurted her so much more. He gave a heavy sigh and got up quietly. "I just wanted to say that I'm sorry." he told her. He then turned and left without making a sound.

Her chest moved up and down painfully. Avean wished she could believe him but she was so upset it wasn't helping. She hid her face in her hands and let the tears fall to the ground before her.

By this time Rith has had a few, and could certainly feel the effect of the hard ale he was drinking. His face had a hue of beet in it and he periodically hiccuped, though was still coherent enough to realise just how out of it he was. Rith fumbled with his coin pouch, at first accidently pulling out one of his Puffers from his "Bag of Tricks" before carefully extracting a few gold coins from the proper pouch with a triumphant "Ah-hah!" He left the coins as a tip and made his way out of the Tavern, retrieving his cloak and putting it on sloppily as he exited.

Avean looked up to see Rith just leaving. "Wait." she shouted, running after him. Avean ran up to him and laid a hand on his shoulder, sniffing a scent of lingering liqour.
