"That's one of tha reasons why Ih quit," Eliza murmured turning away, "They begged me tah stay, but Ih wouldn't. Hell, Ih gave up myh virginity tah yah, lost myh hair tah keep yah from bein struck by lightening, Ih figured given up ah career Ih could do forevah would just be one more thing," she said sounding a little dazed and she sniffed a little, and for once her tears were gone her eyes dry. She hated when people yelled at her, it reminded her of Buck yelling right before he tried to kill her. So Eliza did what she always did, was quiet and stood there waiting for the blow.

"Yeah, well you got my virginity too. Not to mention the fact that I lost every ounce of sanity and privacy for you." His voice calmed down a little, but was still cracking. "Eliza, it's not how much you give up....it's how much you give....." And what had he given her? Anger? Confusion? "Maybe we just shouldn't see each other anymore....at all...." He crossed his arms, heading to the window and looking out at the day.

Eliza's face was blank, she was still in motionless mode, halfway expecting Huntin to get up at any moment to hit her. She shook her head, jolted back to herself by Huntin wanting to end their relationship. She stood there and the tears began to flow once more before she ran forward and threw her arms around Huntin, burying her face in his back.
She knew it was a risk, that Huntin would probably push her away, but she breathed in deeply taking in his scent once more, "It's up tah yah," she said tearfully not daring to look up at Huntin, 'Ih want yah tah be happy Huntin. But so yah know, Ih wanna start ovah again, be silly, anh happy, like we use tah be. Or at least try hun."

Huntin took in a breath, bowing his head the slightest bit. Slowly he turned, gently taking Eliza's arms off of him. "I want you to be happy too, Eliza." He took a step back, the sun shining around his shoulders like a solar security blanket. "I just....I don't think we can be happy together....at least, not like we used to be....." It was killing him to say it, but he had stopped crying. His tears were dried up. "I.....I think you should just.....leave the dorm....and move on......" He crossed his arms, looking out the window.

Eliza's eyes closed for a moment, trying her best to keep her tears under control, she then opened, strangely looking older, more mature, a look into the future of the woman she would become, "Huntin, if that's what yah want, then Ih'll leave yah alone," she said quietly looking into his eyes.

For the first time in days, Huntin's eyes met hers. "El......" He whispered, trying not to break down. "I love you.....I just don't know if we can be together....at least right now.................just................maybe if we just have space for a while......." He sniffed a little, trying to force a smile. "You look better bald than I did, hu--Eliza."

"Hell if Natalie Portman can pull it off, so can Ih," Eliza said rubbing her eyes to try to keep from crying, "So Ih guess this is it," she then murmured and took a step forward and kissed both of Huntin's cheeks and then held both his hands, "Ih'll see yah around sometime," she then told him before turning away and walking out of the room.

Who was he kidding? Huntin was nothing without her. "El!" His voice was a bit pleading as he jogged after her. "El.........." What could he say? He put his hand on her shoulder and went around in front of her, looking her in the eyes, his mouth open and ready to speak, yet wordless.

Huntin didn't have to speak, Eliza sort of knew what he was going for. She threw her arms around his neck and held him close to her. She then started sobbing into his hair, trying to keep it down to lady-like sniffing but failing miserably, 'Huntin," she managed to choke out.

"God, El, I don't even know what I want anymore!" Huntin whispered hurredly before kissing her shoulder. "I'm so sorry, hun.....SO sorry....for everything!" He sniffed a little himself, wrapping his arms around her waist. "If you never forgive me I totally understand, but I love you so much, El...."

"Jesus, I scared myself, El." Huntin kissed her passionately, breathing deeply. "I'm so so so so so sorry for all of it, El, the whole damn ordeal I'm sorry." He back up a little, a smile on his lips, his hands on her hips. "I love you."

"Ih love yah tah," Eliza said closing her eyes a little and looking at Huntin through her eyelashes, then smiled a real smile that she hadn't done in a very long time. She then bent down a little and gave Huntin several small kisses to his lips.
