OPEN THREAD IS OPEN!
sometimes he wondered why he bothered with other people. why he ever spent any time at all why various people that he couldn't really care any less about. well, maybe that wasn't very accurate. he could care about them, at least a little, if he were to allow himself to do so. the thing was, he didn't want to get too close to anyone. didn't want to care about them. he preferred to keep them at a distance, preferred the one night stands. sure, it hurt some of the people he was with, but they would get over it. besides, it wasn't like he didn't tell them upfront that it wasn't going to be anything serious.
with a sigh, he fell on his back back in the grass and looked up at the sky, just beginning to brighten with the colors of the rising sun. he felt a little bad for the girl he'd just ditched, just a little, but, really, she'd known it was coming. she should have been expecting him to be gone when she finally woke up. hell, he hadn't even gone to sleep, he'd simply left once she was out.
this life, it wasn't quite what he'd dreamed it would be. back when he was young, he'd dreamed of earning a high rank and gaining respect from everyone. he'd dreamed of love and finding the person he was meant to be with. he had never once dreamed that he'd be, potentially, the biggest playboy of the resistance. but maybe that was because he'd never expected to lose his parents the way he had. he'd never dreamed of being separated from his brother.
another sigh parted his lips as he closed his eyes and crossed his arms behind his head, using them for a pillow. the fresh air was nice, it would help to clear his head. help to rid his mind of those useless thoughts. there was nothing he could do to change the path he'd ended up on and, though he was still a little hopeful beneath it all, he was perfectly content with his life now. sure, it wasn't what he'd wanted, but it was still something.
second-in-command. respected by those around him. trusted. powerful (and still gaining further power the more he trained and worked at it).
maybe his parents had left a gap in his heart when they'd died. or his brother when they were separated. that seemed like as good enough reason for his running around and general lack of interest in forming any strong bonds with others. he didn't want to lose anyone else that he cared about. even though he was a lot stronger now than he had been back then, he was, subconsciously, worried that he still wasn't strong enough to protect anyone.
