" Damn right.. You dont have to apologize, because I know you wont mean it.. "

"Dammit Allen!" Avaric looked up, his expression feirce. "It wouldn't matter if I meant it, because I'd still hate you for what you've done to me!"

And wherever the hell we are now..

The bus came, and Avaric stepped on. Still holding Allen's hand.

And now Allen was going to experiment. Was Avaric going to be a horrible boyfriend?

Avaric lead him to the popular area, and sat down next to Galinda. Pulling Allen onto his lap and slipping his arms around his waist.

Allen was rather surprised, but said nothing.

"Avaric, um... What are you doing?" Galinda asked, looking at the two. "I mean are you like... joking or something?"

Avaric shook his head, hugging Allen a a bit tighter. "No, of course I'm not joking..."

Allen personally thought Galinda's reaction was quite funny.

A few of the others were rather shocked, and it was showing on their faces. One girl, a short girl with black hair cut short came up to Avaric. "Avaric baby, what are ya' doin'? You could have like, any girl here..." She took his attention off Allen by taking his face. "Like, me." She said, kissing him gently.

Allen got up immidiately.

Avaric pulled back as soon as he had, almost pushing the girl aside. "Allen.." He said, in a quick tone.

Allen just looked at him. He knew the kiss was forced, but still.

Avaric took his hand and tried to take him somewhere a little more private.

It was a bus. There was nowhere private.

Avaric took him to the empty seats at the back. At the least, it was away from the Henchman.

Allen wasnt going to say anything.

"Look, you really can't blame me for that..."

" No.. and I dont.. but.. "

"What?" she asked, looking at him.

" Its nothing.. "

"C'mon, just tell me..." Avaric looked at him still.

" You couldve pulled back abit sooner.. "

"Sorry... It was just surprising, I didn't exactly have time to react."

Allen shrugged, not having anything else to say.
