Story written on January 14, 2008 by writerz86.
“You are my problem and you know what, I want you to leave, leave this stable, my mother’s Inn and leave my town. Leave me alone,” she yelled at him then turned away but he grabbed her arm and walked up to her. “You think it’s that easy for me to walk away. I love you Xena, more than I’ve loved anyone in my entire life, I want you to be with me, why are you pushing me away?” He asked and she looked at him then pulled her arm free, “because I’m tired, I’m tired of you and I’m tired of this relationship.” Ulysses looked at her and he wasn’t going to let it be like this, he wasn’t going to let it end like this and they winded up arguing back and forth, getting loud with it, until Lyceus walked into the stable. “What in the world is going on?” He asked, “Your sister is acting like an idiot,” Ulysses said and Xena looked at him then punched him hard ‘why is it when someone’s mad at me they hit me’ he asked himself. ‘God’s that hurt’ he thought to himself as he moved his jaw around.
“Xena what in the world is wrong with you?” Lyceus asked her and she looked at him then at Ulysses who looked at her, “did that make you feel better? Will beating up on me make you feel better about the fact that you’re confused and you’re driving me away because you don’t want to have to deal with your feelings?” Ulysses asked and Xena looked at him and he looked at her then shook his head, “you’re not the woman I thought you were,” he said then walked out of the stables and when the door closed Xena sank to the floor. “What did I do?”
She asked herself and Lyceus walked over to her and stooped down next to her, “I hate to be blunt but you’re pushing the man you love away.” He said and Xena let out a breath, “and may I ask why?” Lyceus asked and Xena shook her head, “I can’t be with him,” Xena said, “why?” Lyceus asked, “Because my heart won’t let me be with him.” Xena said then looked at her brother with tears in her eyes and she leaned her head on his shoulder, “I’m gonna always be alone,” she said and Lyceus wrapped his arm around her. “That’s not true Xena, you have a man that loves you very much and I know you love him.”
