Dee held on to him until he was well finished. It was intense even for them and she was gasping for breath. She felt good but then they were pretty much back to the beginning.
She laid with him until her heart beat slowed, "I should probably go before we get caught in the middle of this park." Dee told him her hands tracing his chest and some of the scars.
She needed to go before it was to painful to leave.

Dee went to get up, but Tobias lightly pulled her arms back towards himself.
"Dee... I..." He stopped, unsure of how to proceed. He was looking away, but forced himself to meet her blue gaze. "...Sometimes... actions are not enough... I'm realizing that." Again his voice was faltering. Hell, why was this so hard?
He reached up and brushed some of her dark brown hair behind her ear.
"You need to hear words. And I wish I could just say... what I feel..." he leaned back against the tree. "But... it's not easy..." Something inside him fought against what he just wanted to tell her. It wasn't an intuitive voice. It was oppressive. He felt trapped and he couldn't get free. "All I can give you is that... I need you." His eyes were stinging. Thank god it was night-time. "I need you, Delilah... and if that's not enough... then that's not fair to you..."

Dee looked at him for a moment he was being so honest with her and she probably owed him her own as well.
"You need me? What about this new girl huh? Cast her off so you can sleep with me?" It was low of her because she didn't honestly care about Ariel at all still she had been hurt and knew very much how it felt. She was only trying to make him feel guilty.
"I don't think its enough..." She admitted shocking herself as well. "It shouldn't hurt this much..." Dee stood, "I'm sorry I have to go." She turned back into a wolf and took off.
She ran back to her clothes putting them on close to tears and shaking. What the hell was wrong with her anyway.

Toby couldn't move. His insides had turned cold and he felt heavy. Finally he stood up, feeling humiliated, degraded, worthless, and a complete piece of shit... as he pulled his pants back on. He jammed his hands in his pockets and walked back to the apartment.
When he opened the door, Ariel was watching the tv. She sat up, eyes excited, turning off the tv, waiting to her any news he might have for her. Silently he walked to his room, slamming his door shut. He sat down on the edge of his bed, staring out at the bright moon.
He would have to go out there eventually... Ariel needed a ride home. He just needed to be alone for a moment.

Ariel took a breath as Toby went to his room and slammed his door. She had been around guys when they were angry before and though it best to give him time. She sat down on the couch waiting for his temper to cool down.
It seemed like it was going so well. She did know another wolf in town perhaps tomorrow she could call Ruby and see if she might talk with her. She really wanted to help Tobias and if anything it was a nice distraction from her problems. Plus Ariel wanted to see him with Dee they truly belonged together she could see that now they wouldn't hurt this bad if it wasn't love she knew that without a doubt. She gave him some amount of time before knocking softly on his door.
"Tobias are you okay?"

"It's over." He said lowly. "She's done with me."

Ariel opened the door, "Why do you say that?" She asked. He was sitting on the bed.
"Did she say that?" Ariel asked carefully. She didn't want him to hurt and now she was going to talk to Ruby about mates and such. Mermaids didn't do anything like that so it was something she didn't understand.
"Tobias you can tell me."

"I tried to tell her what I felt. She said it wasn't enough." He got up abruptly. "I'll take you home." He avoided eye contact.

"Well did you tell her you loved her? Did you tell her you couldn't think of life with out her? Did you tell her anything close to that? Because she needs a gesture of romance. If you didn't give it to her then what is she going to think?" Ariel explained, she knew oh god did she know what Dee was feeling only difference was Toby loved Dee Ariel wasn't so fortunate.
"Tobias you have to make an effort, if love was easy everyone would have it. Don't give up now your so close." Ariel told him but she got the feeling he didn't want to hear it right now. She sighed, "Well if you must take me home we can talk more tomorrow if you would like?"

For the first time this evening, Ariel was starting to annoy him. "Oh is that all? Well I'll just shed off years of emotional abuse, forget that I'm marked to a dead mate, and hey... you know saying 'I love you' is about as easy for me as swallowing a bag of nails but since you SAY I need to make a f*cking effort, I'll get right on that. YOU'RE THE EXPERT. SO YOU WOULD KNOW."
He shot up and stalked out of his room.

Ariel stood slowly following him out of the room, " I really so not an expert" She sighed "alright perhaps I am being to pushy I just don't want to see you give up."
"Look I have no place to talk I just know how she is feeling right now. Just take your time, I'm sorry Tobias." Ariel felt like maybe she shouldn't have gotten involved in the first place she might have just made things worse.
Still she needed to know more about this mating bond thing and why his dead mate still had so much pull over him. Hell she understood that feeling. Ariel was terrified to let go of Killian perhaps Toby felt the same way about Anita? Though for very different reasons of course. Still she felt his pain.
"I can walk home its really no big deal and my clothes are probably dry to." She chatted on something Ariel did when she was nervous. Not that she feared he would hurt her but she could tell he was pissed.

"No. Just... stay..." He flung his hands up, turning towards the door. "Stay here the night. I'm going for a run. Down the avenue." Reckless, but he didn't think he could keep it together if he ran into Dee or anyone from the pack in the woods. He walked out and slammed the door shut.
...Only to open it and stick his head in again. "I mean it, mermaid! You're not walking home in the dark in wet clothes! IF YOU F*CKING DO, I'LL EAT YOU." He slammed the door again, storming down the hall.

Ariel sighed he probably wasn't kidding besides it would be good if she didn't come in case Killian was there.
She plopped down on his couch to watch TV settling for some show about two really hot guys fighting ghosts or something. It looked promising. Ariel ended up falling asleep his couch was rather soft.
She didn't wake until morning.

Toby was leaning against the dumpster in the alley, bringing another bottle of whiskey to his lips. He may or may not have broken into the liquor store and scared shit out of the store owner last night. It's not everyday you see a massive wolf come through the front window and take off with about three bottles of alcohol in it's snout.
"Hey... hey you..." Toby swiveled his head to squint at the asshole yelling at him.
The asshole apparently had a knife.
"GIVE ME YOUR WALLET."
Toby gave a laugh. Like he had ANYTHING in his wallet. He just f*cking robbed a liquor store... as a werewolf. Which he couldn't do right now, because that was early morning light coming in over the tops of the buildings. Toby slowly stood up, tossing the bottle down.
"Come and get it..." He growled. The man didn't even hesitate to come at Toby. The werewolf dodged out of the way, letting the man run into the brick wall. Toby stumbled a little bit, but he lunged, pinning the man to the wall and giving him a knee to the gut. His eyes flashed yellow.
"...What... what the hell ARE you???" The man spat.
Toby blinked. He was drunk... and outing the werewolf pack was the last thing he wanted. So...maybe breaking into a store as a wolf hadn't been the smartest idea... at all. Man, he was a dumbass. He just... didn't want to feel anything for a bit...
Toby knocked the man's head against the dumpster and let him fall to ground. He looked around and then jogged out of the alley, heading back to his place.

Ariel was sleeping soundly on Tobias's couch it was rather old but provided a perfect place for her to cuddle into.
She rolled over placing her face further into her pillow.
