Christian dropped his shoulders.
"I care about you, mademoiselle. And I'm worried," he said quietly. "And--And I don't know if I should tell you this, but... I cannot stop thinking about you. I know I'm not supposed to be but I can't stop myself."

*Bella was taken aback* Really?

"Huh?" Christian leaped back as he finally realized that Bella was in the room with him. "I mean, no. Not at all. I think." ((Going out to eat dinner. See ya later! )

((Bye! ;D))
But you said...you keep thinking about me. *Bella got all up in his grillstepped closer to him and gently touched his cheek* Do you?

A chill went down Christian's spine at the touch of Bella's fingers upon his cheek.
"I... don't know," he replied hesitatingly.

*Bella sighed softly but didn't break eye/skin contact with him* You have to know, Christian, you have to know...

Christian hesitatingly laid a hand on Bella's.
"I... do know. But I can't feel this way. I'd be betraying Sydney..."

*Bella moved closer* But what about your your heart?

Christian closed his eyes, his pulse quickening with each step that brought Bella closer to him. He inhaled and exhaled deeply.
"My heart is like... a pendulum. Swinging one way and then abruptly swinging the other way, never able to make up its mind. So who do I love? That I cannot say, otherwise, my heart would be torn to be with other person." He opened his eyes slowly.
"I'm sorry."

*Belladonna nodded, a look icy calm coming over her as she backed away* I- I'm sorry, too. I can't- I can't...*She backed towards the door slowly*

"No," he took ahold of her hand, "it should be I apologizing to you. This is... all my fault."

*Bella shook her head* No...no, it's not, it's Fate's fault. But I... *She hesitated* I can't do this anymore. I...I can't. I'm not strong enough. *She kissed him gently on the cheek* Goodbye, Christian... *She managed to quietly walk out the door*

A shuddering breath swept through Christian's lungs. He had to restrain himself from lunging forth, seizing Belladonna, and squeezing the life out of her in a tight embrace. The young man also fought a losing struggle holding back tears that were bursting to flow.
Sighing with exasperation, Christian plonked down on his bed--that minutes before Bella had laid upon--and buried his face in his hands.
