"you didn't screw anything up John, there was no other real way of saying what you did. She'll come round and no doubt be apologetic for ranting at you. I'm sure she didn't mean it or intended it to sound like she was taking it out on you" he said, feeling bad for his mate. He hadn't seen him like this in a very long time over someone, which told him just how much John really did care about Kay. "just try and relax mate, you're gonna do your lung in otherwise" he then added.

Kay appreciated the good spin Serena was trying to put on it but she was just in too much of her overwhelmed state to truly be able to let Serena know. She let head droop to her knees as she pulled her legs into her chest and hugged her legs. "I'm bring such a selfish bitch over this but I need time... I can't compute any of this right now." she said to Serena, unable to look at her friend. Every part of her core just wanted to run away again, but she knew she couldn't do that, not now.
