Otomeken's head hung a little... "I'd... Rather not talk about him..." she said sounding pretty upset... "Seems... I didn't have things exactly straight when I left six months ago and... Let's just say the fiancee thing wasn't meant for me to take it serious, and I just found out that he has someone else..." Otomeken swallowed hard, leaving her head hanging low...

"Whoa, seriously?" Suoh asked, callously before he caught himself. "I mean, that's awful. I'm sorry to hear that."

Oki disengaged Suoh's arm and moved so that she could put an arm around Otomeken. "I'm sorry," she said softly. "Maybe if I had listened to Yuki, neither one of us would have had to go through this..."

Otomeken raised her face to be more on level with Oki. She looked confused. "Yuki doesn't know shit about anything... Wait... What? How would being with Yuki help you out? I thought he was your problem..."

"I think she means she understands how you feel," Suoh said pointedly, looking over at Oki. "She was into the buttershots before we got there; her mouth is going a little faster than her brain right now," Suoh whispered loudly to Otomeken and hoped that Oki got the hint.

"Yuki's only part of my problem, Otomeken, and I think we're sharing the other. I met Baoh right after I got home and... found him every bit as charming as you did, I guess. Yuki tried to warn me, tried to tell me that Baoh was engaged to you but... I thought he was lying."

Otomeken's jaw dropped like a stone... "You?" she said not in an unbelieving or condemning way... Just... How it all went together... Baoh's questions at the hospital, their talk in the lake... It all made sense... Otomeken just couldn't believe that she was going out to help Oki get over her man troubles when it was her own man that was the cause of at least part of them... Otomeken had to stop and just breathe, long, deep breaths...

Suoh hissed and stopped with Otomeken, glaring accusingly at Oki. He kept his hold on her arm, lightly, but watched her very, very closely.

Oki frowned. "Me? You mean you knew?"

"Not before thirty seconds ago I didn't!" Otomeken said, trying to restrain herself from shouting at Oki... It wasn't her fault... And she knew what it was all about already... Baoh just didn't tell her who the other girl was... Until now...
Otomeken turned to face Suoh... "And what's your deal? You were just going to let us go out and have a grand ol night and not tell me that the other part of your sister's 'boy troubles' were the boy I 'thought' was mine this morning? What the hell Suoh?" Otomeken didn't even realize she was still holding his arm, but at least she didn't look apt to kill anyone...

"As cold as it's going to sound," Suoh said calmly, "it wasn't my place. This whole train wreck is between yourselves and Baoh. I thought Oki would at least have enough sense to find a reason to stay home tonight and I would have come out to see if I couldn't figure out what the hell was going on."

"Oh! So this is my fault?" Oki snapped? "And you were going to go into the lion's den to rescue us both, was that your plan? Bullshit Suoh! This is your kind of chaos, and you either wanted a front row seat or another chance to lock lips with him!"

"Oki... I am so sorry... If I'd have known... WHAT?" she said, rebounding on Suoh again, looking even more shocked than a moment before, her mouth open and just staring at Suoh even with her eyelids closed...

"Oh for the love of... Look, I told you about that already! It was in a bar, there were these girls... It was nothing! Some times a kiss is nothing more than a little show, and a whole lot of 'one of is is going to owe the other big.' That's all it was."

"No, I'm the one who should be sorry, Otomeken. I should have known, all of the facts were there and I... I chose to ignore them and I shouldn't have."
