(Venus and Brain are all out front, at the entrance.
Sly, your username threw me off… Lol.
Also: Sorry, Turtle!)

Blaine bit her lip. She really hoped that things would work out okay for Vender.

//no worries :)

“I’m here if you need anything,” Jane said softly to Venus, then pulled away. “So. What’s up?”

(Sly, they're all out front, so yes.)
Venus was about to respond, then saw Ender walking toward them. "I'll tell you later?" She didn't mean for it to be a question. Her heart pounded. Why was she so afraid? Ender would forgive her, right? She hated herself.

Ender strolled up to Blaine and Venus. "Good morning, Ladies!" He smiled at Venus. "Love."

Blaine's eyes widened slightly as Ender walked up, but she quickly got herself under control. She glared at Ender, pretending that everything was normal.

"You're late," she said. "Again."

“To be fair,” Jane interjected, a bit nervously, “I just got here….”

Blaine opened her mouth to say something, then realized she didn't actually have anything to say and shut it. She gave a defeated sigh and leaned against the wall.

Venus smiled back, but it was shaky. The dark… The unforgiving dark…

Ender rolled his eyes. "Remember that time in 2nd grade when you missed the whole first half of math class and I took notes for you? Try and think of that Blaine." He turned to Venus. "Are you okay, babe?"

Venus quickly approached Ender and hugged him tightly. She whispered into his ear, "We need to talk."

(Okay we can play this out just don't make it drag on too much)

"Okay." Ender put his arms around her. "What do you need to talk about?"

(Yay! Will do.)

"Not here?" Her eyes pleaded with him.

"Sure. Let's go round back eh?"

Venus swallowed. "Sure."

Ender lead her to the back of the House and crossed his arms. "Now what was it you wanted to tell me?"

"Marco and I kissed!" she blurted tearfully. "Ender, I swear, I don't know what I was thinking… He just showed up and pinned me against the house and…" She was sobbing in every interval.

Ender blinked. "Venus, you're a sweetheart, and I love you. But I'm breaking up with you."

Venus felt like she'd just been slapped. A thousand times. With a metal fist. "Ender…" she whispered. Her voice was airy and faint.

"I'm sorry, but…" Ender took a deep breath. "It doesn't seem like you can decide how you feel, so I think we should take a break."

Venus tried to find her voice. She wanted to tell him that she knew how she felt. That yes, Marco in the picture had thrown some things off balance and she wasn't prepared. But she knew that no matter what, Ender would always be there for her. And she knew it, no matter what Marco said. Ender was her strong island in a sea of confusion. But now her island was flooding, sinking into a vast ocean of heartbreak, pain, and angst. She was gripping on for any last thing to hold onto, but her fingers slipped and she plunged into the waves, being dragged down further every second…
She cried. She cried and cried, and there was no consoling her. She curled into a ball and cried into her jeans.
No… no no no no no…

(Congratulations Camie! you just sunk the greatest ship on the site! Because of Marco!)

(I HAS A PLAN, OKAY?! JUST GO WITH IT, BUT I SWEAR I CAN FEEL WHATEVER IS LEFT OF MY HEART TURNING TO FREAKING THANOS DUST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Ender watched as Venus melted in front of him. It took everything in his power not to join her, to forgive her.
"Venus," Ender tried to keep his voice from breaking. "Let me know when you've made your decision."
