Location: KOA cabin<br/>
Addressing: Rachel​</div><br/>Rebel reached for the jug, fingertips brushing against her hand as he pulled the water towards himself and took a long drink. He wanted more but he knew that too much too soon might make him sick. Letting out a breath as he sat the jug on the small side table.<br/><br/>“I don’t know.” His response came out more sharply than he intended. Hurt and irrigation tinged his voice, and he gripped the edge of the bed next to his knees, fingers paling between his knuckles as he squeezed. His arms tensed as he tried to ignore what he felt was an accusation from the nurse, as if she was saying ‘You’re lying. There’s no way.’<br/><br/>“She was spending a lot of time away,” he said. I’d get back from a patrol and it was obvious she had just gotten back as well; she hadn’t been staying in our room. Last night she spent the entire night away,” he shook his head and glared at the floor before his feet. She could have just told him she didn’t want to be with him anymore. She didn’t have to make him out to be the fool, cuckolded and betrayed while everyone else knew.<br/><br/>“Hale had people watching. They knew who she met up with, and as soon as word came that she was kicked out, her – “ his voice caught. He shook his head. It didn’t matter, it was done.<br/><br/>Rebel looked up at Rachel. “Last week she said she was going to help you watch over someone who was sick and needed around the clock care. Did she even spend the night at the clinic?” Was everything he remembered about his relationship with Sou a lie? He had no idea how long she had been running around behind his back. For all he knew, it could have been the whole time.<br/><br/>He felt like a fool. Sou had had big dreams and aspirations. Rebel had wanted a simple life; a home, a family, a job he could feel good about. They were the odd couple from the start, and even the apocalypse couldn’t put them on the same track. He had wasted the years thinking that she would settle down and be content with what he could offer, but it seemed like it had never been enough.
