As her knees dug deeper into the sands surrounding their now doomed RV, tears splattering the dust before drying up in an instant, all the usual breakdown thoughts were swirling in Emilia's head.

[color=ffff1e][i]How much did AJ know? Why didn't he tell me Brandon was going to break it off? Why did he break it off? Why am I so worthless? Can't even fix a stupid RV! Why is my life like this? I'm so alone![/i][/color]

None of this was stemming the flow from Emi's eyes, even as she heard footsteps coming towards her. Heavy footsteps, cracking the gravel on the shoulder of the road before softening in the sands beneath her. [color=ffff1e][i]Maybe it's someone who has come to put me out of my misery.[/i][/color]

She heard a thump in front of her as someone else hit the sands. [color=f7941d][b]“Hey, you’re okay. That wasn’t such a big crash. You’re still in one piece.”[/b][/color] [color=ffff1e][i]Who is that? I know that voice...[/i][/color] [color=f7941d][b]“Want a chocolate bar?”[/b][/color]

Emilia managed to lift her head out of her hands and squint her eyes at the person in front of her, although it was hard to see through the water and the Barstow sun. Eventually, she rubbed her eyes enough to make out the man now holding the promise of candy in front of her. What she got though, was another unpleasant reminder of the man who so ruthlessly spurned her. Matt Brown. She remembered Matt. Just like AJ, he was on the football team. The running back, so she saw him talking to Brandon a lot. Again, their conversations had been very cordial, lest Brandon get jealous she was hanging around other teammates, but for a football player, he seemed all right. The problem was that first part though. Football.

The tears started to well in Emilia's eyes again and this time there was someone to catch the full blast. [color=ffff1e]"MATTTTTT!"[/color] she wailed. [color=ffff1e]"WHY?!? WHY DO THESE THINGS KEEP HAPPENING TO MEEEEEE?!?[/color] She made a motion to wipe her nose on her still new leather jacket, but even in this state she managed to catch herself. [color=ffff1e]"What did I do? I thought... I thought I was a good person? Why does God hate me? I don't... I..."[/color] She was starting to lose steam. The hot desert sun was tiring at full blast, and she was starting to run the risk of dehydration without another place to get frappes nearby. [color=ffff1e]"I can't... I don't want this hurt, Matt. I don't want it... Make it go away..."[/color] She continued to cry, muddling the words somewhat, but she couldn't help it.

While Emi was stuck in her own pity loop, she was oblivious to the Blossom to her Bubbles arriving behind her. At least until Kim put a hand on her shoulder. Initially, she thought it was Val or Umbra, since Kim usually stayed away from the whole touching thing. [color=lightpink][b]"Better? You hurt anywhere?"[/b][/color] The shock that it actually was Kim snapped the sobbing loop, at least for the moment. [color=ffff1e][i]Kim. Kim cares about you. You have friends. You are not alone. So buck up.[/i][/color]

The blonde sniffled and toned down the crying enough to sound somewhat normal again while talking. [color=ffff1e]"I don't think... I'm hurt from the crash,"[/color] she confirmed to Kim. [color=ffff1e]"It's... it's just the usual hurt."[/color] She tried to use her hands to wipe away the rest of the tears, but they were saturated as it was. [color=ffff1e]"It's the usual sucky hurt."[/color]
