Riku: taps knife on palm Why'd ya do it? Thought we had trust.
MoonbeamSurfer
I told you about the world I live in It's okay, tell me what's troubling your heart.
Riku: narrows eyes Don't give me that "I'm sorry" crap. I want the truth, and I want it now. Who is he?
MoonbeamSurfer
I start to shake and tear up
Riku: steps closer, voice low and threatening Don't you dare lie to me, Moonbeam. I can see right through your bullshit.
MoonbeamSurfer
it was mi- I don't have anyone else
Riku: grabs Moonbeam by the collar, pins them against the wall You think I'm stupid?
MoonbeamSurfer
I look at you fearfully
Riku: tightens grip on Moonbeam's collar You're nothing but a lying, cheating scumbag. And I won't let you get away with it.
MoonbeamSurfer
I start to tear up more
Riku: releases Moonbeam, smirking Lucky for you, I have a soft spot for crying babies. But mark my words, if you ever betray me again, I'll make sure you regret it. Got it?
MoonbeamSurfer
I nod quickly
Riku: snaps open a bottle of whiskey, pours two glasses Here's to second chances. Let's drink to our "relationship" and hope it doesn't end in bloodshed. Cheers, babe.
MoonbeamSurfer
I drink it quickly
Riku: watches Moonbeam finish their drink, then smirks Feeling better? Good. Now that we've cleared the air, let's talk about the future.
MoonbeamSurfer
I smile a bit
Riku: leans back, crosses arms Alright, Moonbeam. Here's the deal. We're going to work on rebuilding our relationship. But don't think for a second that I trust you completely yet.
MoonbeamSurfer
I nod
Riku: stands up, paces We're going to need some ground rules, Moonbeam. Rule number one: no more lies. I want complete honesty from you at all times. Got it?
MoonbeamSurfer
yes I do
Riku: Rule number two: you're going to cut off all contact with that other guy. I don't want him lurking in the shadows, waiting to stab me in the back. Is that clear?
MoonbeamSurfer
yes it is
Riku: Rule number three: no more secrets. If I find out you're hiding something from me, there'll be hell to pay. You got that?
