Marcus didn't sleep that night, stretched out on his bunk running over the day's events and fending off jokes and questions from his squadmates.  Eventually though they all fell asleep, leaving him alone with his reflection.  He had never wanted to be someone that ruined a relationship, someone elses side.  But, this was Rin.  And it wasn't like she was using him, she loved him and was going to break up with that guy anyways so, so maybe that made it okay?

The next day passed by uneventfully, the two both to busy to really spend much time together and Marcus was careful not to intrude whenever John was around.  He couldn't help but get a bit frustrated though, no seeing any sign of the relationship ending and getting increasingly agitated over it.  Kyle did his best to distract him though, sending him on errands and tasks about the ship that would keep him away from the couple.

Tess was steadily beginning to notice a change in Rin, and when they were down in the hanger together running checks over their ships after a practice flight she cornered her. "Whats up with you?  You've been acting all day dreamy and distant for awhile now, you okay?"  She asked, leaning against the fin of Rin's ship and folding her arms as she watched her closely.
