    " - Another mother is crying , her son has been forsaken ! - "

    And then Riddle understood.


    It wasn't that she was anti-social.


    She didn't want to let anyone close to her.


    She didn't want to be vulnerable.


    Riddle actually felt very much the same, he just was more trusting in people.


    "Wait." he started venturing after her. "What I meant was I think you'd make a great warrior, and a leader someday." he said with a smile, brushing up against her, trying to do anything to make her stay. He sensed he had been really close to something, and made a mental note not to bring up any of Lighting's family again.


    However, Riddle really didn't know how to continue the conversation anymore, or even have a motive other than he was pathetically lonely. He could see she needed to talk to someone about something, but he was drawing a blank.


    He no longer had the option to be physically affectionate with her, as she had quite clearly put some distance between them, in body language, her back to him.


    But words seemed rather ineffective as well.


    He hoped at this point he wasn't just making things work.


    His brain essentially fried when he was talking to her because she had let him in for about 5 minutes before taking his key and snapping it in half.


    "I just want you to be happy. It's all I've ever wanted for you." he mumbled almost silently, kneading the cold soil with his paws, staring at the ground.


    She knew she would hate this statement, but he had to tell her.

    ✧----~ She looked back at him, pausing in her steps. Standing there, she studied him as he talked, complimenting her. All that faith and hope in his eyes. What could he possibly see in a molly like Lightningpaw? She had broken his heart, stomped on the shards and lit it in flames so many times, and without ever an apology afterwards, and yet here he was, always coming back. Always trying to make her happy.

    She wondered why kind of person he saw in her.

    Feeling him brush against her, the molly shook her head lightly, then turned around fully. Pressing her face into his warm, dark chest, she breathed in his scent - familiar and dark, comforting. "Then stay by my side," she said, her voice quiet.


    Yeah, Riddle wasn't like the rest. He would never be like daypaw, or peach or cream or Forest. He would never be as horrible and cruel as she was, or understand what it's like, her reasons. He wasn't Lightningpaw.

    But he was Riddle, and he stayed.

    And that was more than everyone else had ever done.

    And that made him even more special.
