Syx howled in pain, clinging tightly to his beloved Anna. He couldn’t cry, not like humans, yet his eyes filled with unshed tears. Inner eyelids blinking them away and blurring his vision. His face flushed as he rubbed against her, seeking comfort. It had been the hardest decision he’d ever made. Ripping his heart to shreds and leaving him a mess. It was right and needed. It was horrible and he was a monster. Nessisary to move on. Regretted instantly. Heartache overcame him.
It didn’t take long, not as long as it would have before she came into his life, for Syx to start talking. Quick;y enough that it shocked Minion greatly. Seeing as his duty as shoulder to cry on was now a shared duty, he slipped out of sight to let his Sir and Ma’am talk. He kept an ear turned to the conversation, though.

Curled in Anna’s arms on the leather sofa, Syx sniffled. Rubbing their foreheads together he sought every bit of comfort he could, “I… I broke up with Wayne. I had to,” he hiccuped and rubbed his nose, “No more dating, no more battles… what am I suppose to be without him?” he felt pathetic, yet…
“but I couldn’t… just keep going on like that,” Wayne’s jealousy had been eating away at him for too long and as much as he loved his hero… he couldn’t, wouldn’t, give up the other people in his life.
Anna had been his constant companion through it all, urging him to eat with gentle words and hands, making him do the things he likely didn’t even want to do. Though through it all she never stopped touching him, never stopped offering him her comfort.
The words that Syx spoke wrenched her heart, and she knew he likely smelled the shift in her emotion, but she didn’t linger on the thought as she drew her hand up and down his back.
“..You’re so brave..” she whispered, pressing a kiss to his temple, letting the contact linger for several moments. “I’m so sorry Syx.. I’m so sorry..” she whispered those words, tears rising to her eyes as she tried to imagine the heart ache Syx surely had to be feeling. She knew of the relationship the two held..
“..its hard.. its so hard.. but we keep going.. me and you, together. You come out better than before..” she urged the words gently, unsure if they would do anything for him. She didn’t know if she was doing this right.. but she spoke from the heart. She truly meant it.. she would be with him through it all, thick and thin
“I don’t feel brave,” Syx sighed, “I feel useless and selfish and horrible.”
He curled his face into her neck. Hadn’t even said goodbye, just left. He was a monster. Yet he’d never been able to face Wayne and tell him that they couldn’t be together like that anymore. Wouldn’t have had the strength to walk away.
As it was… Syx pressed a hand to his stomach and shuddered. He didn’t want it to happen again. Even if it was from a man he loved. Even if it could mean… he hoped beyond hope that nothing would come of it, whimpering softly.
