Phoenix Maplewood I've had time, and I've had change.

He was right on the mark this time. Luna really was going to go to Reek and Tavi. He really did want to know how everyone was doing but he can't just leave because of that. The real problem was that Esaro never goes back on his promises and on what he owes. He owed to Saena, Shreya, and Spring nearly as much as he does with Reek, Tavi, and Luna. He didn't want to pick sides but he felt a little forced to make a decision.

"I don't want to have to choose Luna. If it was possible I would want everyone to come back together." He paused for a moment. "I really want to come with you. I do owe you, Reek, and Tavi something for taking care of me. But I owe Phoenix just as much." He got up and stepped forward, getting closer to Luna. "I want to be there for you when you need it but Saena Spring and everyone else might need me too."

He look at her almost desperately. "I really want to be with you but I don't really know what is the right thing to do. I can't be in two places at a time."
