Lyceus said and Xena nodded, “I do, I really do but maybe we aren’t meant to be together. I want so much to let him into my heart, to truly know the love I believe I have for him but no matter how hard I try, these walls that I keep around my heart won’t lower for him and I don’t know why. And it hurts Ly, it really hurts,” Xena said and her brother just held her as she cried into his shoulder. “What happened to you?” Virgil asked as Ulysses stormed into the kitchen, “we’re leaving,” he said and Toris, Cyrene and Corrinna all looked at him. “What?” Virgil asked, “we’re leaving,” Ulysses said and Virgil walked up to his friend grabbing his arm. “Will you calm down and tell me what happened,” Virgil said and Ulysses let out a breath. “I can’t tell you what happened because I don’t know what happened. She just picked a fight with me and we started arguing. She says she’s tired of me, tired of our relationship and she wants me to leave,” Ulysses said and Cyrene looked at him. “Ulysses both you and Xena need to calm down, I’m sure she didn’t mean it,” Cyrene said and Ulysses let out a breath as he sat down at the table.
“I left home to find happiness; I just knew it was out there waiting for me to grasp it. I thought I found it in the love I have for Xena, the love she has for me. But I was wrong,” he said then ran his fingers through his hair, “I’ve abandoned my family for a happiness I will never find,” Ulysses said then looked up as the door opened and Xena and Lyceus walked into the kitchen. Ulysses stood and walked out of the kitchen heading up to his room, “Xena what…” Cyrene started to ask her daughter, “not now mom,” Lyceus said and they watched as Xena headed downstairs to her own room where she closed the door and sat on her bed as she thought about what she had just done. Three days passed and both Xena and Ulysses were extremely miserable, they didn’t know they could hurt so badly. Ulysses kept himself busy by working himself into exhaustion in the fields and Xena stayed busy around the Inn and training Argo. She also found herself training and exercising, even when she didn’t have training with Athena.
