Seeing her moving past him, and his arm shot out across the doorway to block her, claws digging into the wood. "We built a life together, and you're just leavin'? What would you have done if I hadn't shown up? Would you have just left without a word?" His breath was caught in his throat, he was rambling, denying this was happening because it couldn't be real. Not his Grids...

Her gaze flickered to the claws, and she swallowed again, "I...don't know. I wouldn't have had to make the decision for several months then." This would have been so much easier if he hadn't been here. A note would have been simpler.

"I-I'm sorry, Tiger." She finally looked up at him, "I'm so sorry."

The coldness rose up and through him. "Enjoy him."

Grids froze, shock coloring her features briefly. She didn't say another word, rather slipping out of the room and down the stairs, making her way uptown to the Demoniaque again, refusing to look back.

"Enjoy him while you can," Growltiger hissed to the empty space in his life, "because I'm going to wrap my paws around his throat and choke you out of him." A sharp, crazed smile curved around his teeth. "I'm going to kill him."
