"Well, it's not my place to assume anything, but stressful times like these can certainly upset relationships," Ash murmured sympathetically after a considerable amount of uncomfortable silence had ensued. Since her one and only dating experience had obviously gone swimmingly, she couldn't directly relate to the apparently petty issues these two were suffering; but being the kindhearted soul that she was, she went ahead and attempted to be emphatic anyway. "Don't take it too hard. Seems like he's going through a lot."As Lily cuddled against him, trembling from cold, Wolfram grew increasingly uncomfortable, and when Ash spoke, it became increasingly worse. He glanced at Ash, shaking his head violently. "No...no...uh...we aren't together...anymore..." He winced at the tremble in his voice, and how idiotic he sounded.
"What ever do you mean, Wolfy?" Lily cooed, looking up at him innocently. "Of course we are together."
Kill me now... He hate how innocent Lily sounded. How innocent she looked. Like she truly believed her words. He hissed softly, prying Lily from his side, forcing her away from him. "No, we are not." He snarled, his voice much harsher and colder then he intended. "Not after what you did."
He didn't want to argue with her in front of Ash. Actually, scratch that, he didn't want to argue at all.
His eyes, previously a dull shade of blue-gray, where now back to their regular blue, but ten times colder as he shot a glare in Lily's direction, before turning away from her and Ash, and promptly walking away, a air of exasperation and coldness about him.
Connor halted his heavy plodding and made his way over to Wolfram. However much he despised the kid, he appreciated whatever bit of sane reconnection that had driven him away from the unproductively meandering group.
He tipped his muzzle back toward this disoriented gaggle and gave a disdainful growl.
