"I'm... perfectly fine. Really."
Christian let his hand drop to his side and began to retreat backwards.
"I'll be seeing you, then?"

Pain materialized and stood beside Bella, a hand resting on the girl's shoulder as the two of them watched Christian hesitatingly take his leave. Bella did not notice her or if she had, nothing in her motions or facial appearance expressed her knowledge of the woman's presence.
She piped up a few moments later, "Love has always been complicated, not to mention painful. Not my area of expertise, you understand, but just the same."
Simultaneously, Pain was with Christian, hovering beside him as he stood awkwardly.
"You cannot escape it. Keep running but you can't hide," she warned him.

Tears merely ran over and his face was soon streaked.
"This is my battle, not hers," Christian muttered under his breath.

*Bella winced slightly, very uncomfortable.* Are you alright?

"Um, yes. I'm fine. Okay. I'm okay."
Christian found he couldn't form longer sentences than those and cursed himself silently for that.

*Bella bit her lip.* I'll...I'll go, then. Please- come by sometime, won't you? When you're feeling...better?

"Of course, Bella. Of course."
He tore his eyes from her and looked shamefully at the ground.
"I'll be seeing you, then." Christian turned and began his long journey back to the city.

Pain enclosed her hand on Christian's heart but eased her hold on Bella's shoulder.
It was a one-sided love.
