Bearclaw Valley It is time to call it quits.

Finally managed to type something up for this, ehe. @Scarlett

 
As a silence filled the air between them, he kept an eye on her. He did not get a sense of comfort from their lack of shared words, but rather, it made him feel odd. If, perhaps, he’d grown up differently, he’d surely be shifting his weight from side to side by now. Not being one to fall victim to the little antics that came about in an awkward setting, however, his body continued to be stilled. The only movement he’d allow himself was the necessary blinking of his optics, so as not to give them reason to dry. There were things he wished to say, more unspoken apologies he held the desire to get out, but he simply could not bring himself to do so. The words escaped him, abandoning him so he could do nothing but stand in silence. The tension was soon broken, to both his relief and displeasure, as the woman before him opened her mouth. The words were ones of farewell, meaning to end their private meeting. Before she turned, he forced his head to move, nodding hesitantly.
 
While the albino walked away from him, Kove looked after her, his gaze following her form until he could no longer see her. It was, officially, the end of something he’d expected to last forever. He felt like a fool, briefly, for ever believing their relationship had held the chance of lasting until they each left the physical plane. Thus began his mental, and emotional, journey to get over the love he held for her, for the woman who could not feel the same for him any longer. Shaking his head, he turned and started in the opposite direction from which Scarlett had gone. The man wished to clear his head the best he could, and also had a trip he needed to plan. Perhaps some space would do him good, even if only for a short period of time.
