I've never seen her anywhere near this mad, and it scares me. I'm worried for her, for one thing, and for my place here, as well. Also scared for us, if you get right down to it, because we had something good started here, I think.
She gets off the bed hunting clothes, and I keep my mouth shut, thinking really fast. No good ideas come to mind. And then there it is. She does want me out. My stomach twists, making me wish I'd eaten something. I move to the side of the bed and start putting my boots back on.
"If you want me gone, I'll go," I tell her quietly, still bent over my laces and not looking at her. "Can I come back tomorrow, or is this for good?" Maybe I shouldn't ask, but I do really want to come back. To have a chance to make things right once she's cooled down. More than I’ve wanted anything in a long time.
