Will wasn't sure how to feel. On one hand, he agreed. He couldn't promise her anything. He was going to war and she was going to stay right where she was. He was convinced he wasn't going to come home at all, and ending things was probably best for her, and possibly for him. On the other hand, he was angry. When it was his idea to not go any further, to just stop their stupid flirting, she said she wanted to just see where it took them. But now, after she'd basically said she was falling in love with him, she decided it had to end? Where was the logic in that?
He nodded slowly, his arms across his chest. He didn't want to get cross with her, it was better that she was honest, but he couldn't help but be a little irritated, and rather upset. He had a feeling the change of heart at to do with more than her not wanting to waste his time, but he didn't have the energy or self control to press the issue without getting emotional about it.
"Yeah, alright," Will settled. "I'll just take my breakfast to go, if it's alright with you."
He gave her a curt smile, grabbing a piece of toast as it popped out of the toaster, before leaving the kitchen. He walked into the bathroom where his clothed had been left. They were still kind of damp. Will held the piece of toast in his mouth as he quickly shoved the wrinkled, damp piece of clothing onto his body, and without saying anything else, he left the house.
"You're a moron, William," Will mumbled to himself. He should have just steered clear as soon as he thought she was worth chasing. He knew it wasn't going to end well, regardless of when or how it ended. "A complete idiot, you are."
