Cannibalistic discussion

An abandond Amusment park sits deralict on a hill, forgotten by most. The rides still creak in the wind, but are only hulks of rust and some bright paint now.

Brish walked through the show grounds. She regularly came here to think or just be alone. Surrounded by things that had been abandoned in life. Just like her.

(( Just thought if tell you, our amazi and I love you do much!))

Zakk was sitting on one of the teacups on the teacup ride. He saw Brish walking through the fog. "Hey" He whispered.

((Awww! That's sweet! Thank you! I love you too!))

Brish looked up to see Zakk's face past the fog. "Oh.... Hi... Fancy seeing you here... I thought I was the only one sad enough to come to a place like this!" she laughed softly.

"Always sad" He smiled and opened the door to the teacup ride.

(( I just wants you to know. ☺))

((Well, then I want you to know that you have a special place in my heart and will always have a special place in my life...

((Stupid emoji won't work...))

((It did for me!))

Zakk thought for a moment. "A sense of belonging" He said finally.

((Yaay!))

Brish nodded. "You know... You're not all I made you out to be at the start..."

Zakk looked up, surprised. "How so?"

Brish smiled. "More... Deep and thoughtful... I guess..."

Zakk nodded. "Our outer shell often hides the mask of morality"

"Life is like a play, where we have a mask for every scene, soon forgetting who we really are..." Brish sighed.

Zakk leaned in, and brushed his lips briefly to hers. His eyes big and soft.

Brish was taken aback by the brush of his lips against hers. Her whole body going crazy from that one small piece of contact. She looked at him, wide eyed.

Zakk cocked his head, then leaned in a little.

Brish's heart pounded as she softly met his lips over the teacup ride.

Zakk missed her softly, arms surrounding her, holding her tightly, but making sure she can still escape.

Brish cracked a smile. "Oh you funny you..." she mumbled, jumping up and out of his grasp and landing softly on the show ground floor.

Zakk smiled. "I don't want to scare you off" He said softly, looking into her eyes.

Brish was extremely confused on whether she was supposed to take him seriously. "Well, I'm generally not really scared by you," she said, as a matter of factly.

"Really?" He asked, surprised.

Brish nodded. "Yes, you may sometimes be kind of creepy with your charming behaviour, but it takes a helluva lot to actually scare scare me..."

Zakk smiled. "Brish, what about Thom?"

"Thom doesn't creep me out like you do..." Brish smiled.

"No. What about you and Thom?" Zakk asked, frowning.

Brish's smile faded. She had almost forgotten about Thom when she was with Zakk. "I... I don't know..." she whispered, looking down, defeated and ashamed. "What am I doing?"

"It's not you. It's me. It's my fault" He said quietly.

"No... It's my fault..." Brish sighed.

"You're human. You're gullible. You can't take responsibility." Zakk sighed.

Brish looked up at Zakk suddenly. "What?!?"

"They're called pheromones. Cannibals have lots of them" He shook his head.

((SHOWER TIME!!!!))

"No! You just called me gullible and irresponsible... Is that what you think if me, Zakk? JUST A SAD HUMAN?" Brish was screaming by the end of it.

He winced. "No. I meant you can't be responsible for this mess. This was me. All me. I think your amazing. But Thom..."

"You sure about that? Because that's what I heard!"

"Yes I'm sure!" He screamed.

((Can I bring Thom in? Please????))

((Go ahead!))

Brish looked at Zakk, torn between her emotions. "Look, Zakk... I'm sorry.... I really am...."

Zakk shook his head. "No." He sighed. "Don't. Please."

Brish walked up to him, face to face. "What do you expect me to do?" she whispered.

"I want you to tell me you'd be good for Thom. To tell me that I'm nothing to you. To tell me that I have to go" He said briskly.

Brish opened her mouth to say it, then closed it again, a look of abject horror on her face. She couldn't say it. She didn't believe it. To her, that was a lie.

"Brish, say it. You dot know me. Say it!" He growled.

"I'm sorry, I can't..." Brish looked away.

"What?" Zakk asked, worried.

Thom leans against an old ride, his eyes narrowed, anger flashing through him.

Brish looked up at him. "It's just... I don't know..." She kissed him on the cheek.

((Francois says hi. xD))
He watches that and horror crashes through him, he moves into Brish's line of sight, but he doesn't say anything at all.

((I say hi!))

Brish pulled back, looking back at him. All of a sudden, she saw Thom out of the corner of her eye. "Shit..." she muttered, turning to Thom, horrified.

((He says: We're gonna have a mass DNM tonight while I'm in the shower. And TJ's gonna be over.))
Tears form in his eyes and he looks away. "If you want to find me I'll be back at the park..."
