Rj chuckled. "The gentleman in me would have offered you the bed anyways, but I'm sure there will be 2 beds, our parents can't be lacking all of their morals." He flinched when her fist collided with his arm, it didn't hurt, it was just unexpected. He closed his eyes to listen when she started singing. "You have an exquisite voice. It's positively beautiful." He smiled hoping she would except his complement.

"Oh, hello." Nick rubbed the cat's head gently, his scientific rant cut off. With a frown Nick noticed the rain, and he quickly shuffled himself into the car alongside Mary. He had a very stiff way of sitting that implied a knowledge of posture and a long standing habit of staying strict to it. Despite how they had been so far, Nick was still absolutely scared stiff by this meeting. There were so many people he'd never met before. To think he would be marrying one of them, too.

A black limo rolled up and the driver hit the curb next to the beach drop off point. The dark haired boy, named Malaki, swore and slammed his shoulder against the door frame. "Can't you get a better driver?" He scowled at his mother. "Don't give me that lip young man." Malaki's lip curled and his eyes glared at his mother. "Whatever."

Malaki moved to open the door, but before he could his mother grabbed his arm. Dear? He turned around and looked at his mother. Her eyes were pleading a forgiveness. This has to happen. Malaki ripped his arm from his mother's grip. "Good bye mother."

The door was soon opened by the driver and his bags were set on the curb. Malaki's foot crunched a pile of sand down as he stepped out. He slammed the door behind him without looking back. Inside his pocket sat a piece of paper with his soon to be bride and the address to where he must go for what ever special occasion has been planned for him.

As Malaki started to walk over to where a single cab was situated he recited his new brides name. "Arabella Stone....I hope she didn't like pick me out of a magazine..." He sighed and as he got closer to the car a figure was seen standing next to the driver's window. "Is that her?" He mumbled to himself.

"Excuse me, miss?" Malaki asked quietly. "Are you taking this cab? If you are, I can wait." He shrugged and set his bags next to his feet. He looked the girl over, wondering if she was really legal. Her frame and build was so small.

RJ chuckled like a monkey, well he looked like one to me. His clothes were a bit revealing, and his black hair contrasted to my bleach blonde. Interesting this guy.. "The gentleman in me would have offered you the bed anyways, but I'm sure there will be 2 beds, our parents can't be lacking all of their morals." My parent is lacking hers that's for sure. She would even enjoy taking pictures of us having intercourse.... I wanted to barf just thinking about it. Mother had always rushed things, nosed into your personal space, and made you feel horrible about yourself. So, I had to be a complete angel when I was around her, but I was a freaking devil every where else. So, technically, I am two-faced. Ha, the gentlemen in him. Really? He just looks like a play boy to me. I twisted my face in disgust.

He flinched when I punched him, which made me smile as I kept singing. It wasn't hard enough to hurt, it was probably just surprise. I have to do that more often..ha..ha.. His eyes closed and it looked like he was listening. My eyebrow cocked up, and I watched him as it seemed he was actually listening.
"You have an exquisite voice. It's positively beautiful." I sighed and put my guitar down and stopped singing. His smile would not help him here....

-- "I aint happy~ I'm feeling glad I got sunshine~ In a bag I'm useless~ "... "Shut up your voice is horrible. " I looked to a group of snickering boys and started tearing up, putting my guitar down. " I do not! " I yelled standing up and accusing them. "Yes you do~!" They all chorused together, like little children sent from Satan himself. I started sniffling and turned away, grabbing my guitar and running. " Screecher!! Old Woman!!" I was five... I was so.. sensitive...--

I frowned a bit, and looked up at RJ. " You are just messing with me right? You'll make me think ' oh I like him ' and than hurt me in the end? Just shut it. " I turned away from him and just started strumming made up tunes.

Mary

Mary smiled, sitting up straight. Her mother would have scolded her if she were caught slouching. She perked up when the vehicle started moving and Wolf started singing. She frowned slightly when she shot down her brothers complement. "I thought your voice was beautiful as well. I wish I could sing like that, my voice is horrible." She looked down, disappointed in herself for admitting a fault in her person, that was another thing her mother would have scolded her for.





RJ

Rj frowned "I wasn't messing with you, I really do like your voice. Whether you like me or not does not concern me, I just want to be able to tolerate our parents decision." He closed his eyes again and leaned against the window. He opened them and starred out at the rain as they pulled into a long winding driveway, stopping in front of the mansion. He watched the servants run over to the car with umbrellas.




Arabella

Arabella jumped slightly at the voice from behind her. "Oh, um, sorry, but I am waiting for a Mr. Malaki Amanar. I am supposedly his fiance." She waited for the man to either walk away or admit that he was her husband to be. She looked him over, he was tall, and dressed in what her mother would call street clothes, even though they were fairly nice, and he was obviously from an upper class family. The white streak in his hair scared her, who in their right mind would do that to their appearance? She smiled up at him best she could, water droplets hitting her face.

I looked from his sister to him curiously. They say almost the exact same things, but they seem to becnot related by one drop of blood at all. Must be the experience of being together a while. I noticed Mary slouching but than straightening herself and instantly figured out she was one who didn't stick up for herself. Pathetic...

-- You didn't use to ether... And when you tried no one cared...Now you beat people up for it.. What have you come to?--

Shut up. I answered Mary first. " All voices are horrible at the beginning, as mine was as well. But with a little practice, it doesn't sound like a dying bird..." I looked to RJ. " And you, oh yes you, are... The first person to compliment me in my entire life..." I turned away and opened the door before the servants could do it themselves.

The rain poured down on me, and it felt surprisingly good as I walked up to this huge house. Some servants were crowding around me, pleading that I take an umbrella but I waved them off. My short blonde hair came to my shoulders, for I usually his most of my hair in my hats. I ran my fingers through my hair as I entered the building soaking wrt and creating a big water puddle. Servants tried to make a fuss, but I just told them to lead me to "my" room and they had to obey me. When I was there I shut the door and went into the bathroom and shut the door.

I was taking a bath, my hair spread on top of the water, my wet clothes on the floor. I played thumb wars with myself as my body tperature heated up.

Malaki Amanar

Malaki raised his eyebrow. "I suppose that you are Arabella Stone." He bowed slightly. "Malaki Amanar. Nice to meet you." He said politely. The rain started to come down harder. "Shall we?" The door clicked open when he pulled the handle and opened it. "After you."

Malaki leaned against the door absentmindedly. He yawned and thought to himself. Let's see just how she is. Maybe there will actually be something interesting to do at this place. He flipped his white bangs out of his face impatiently.

Saw with her hands huh? Guess that made since, although, it was obvious it wasn't exactly a perfect art. He grunted a light chuckle when the pin failed on her. He sighed, long as she wasn't to much a bitch, he should at least try and be Greek towards her, maybe that would be enough for them to live under the same roof with out killing one another, after that, the nitty gritty could be worked out later, "Let me get it..." He shook his head, he had taken a lot of these kind of things off, never helped put one back on.

Red walked over to beside her, and took the ends of the choker, and locked it in place before sighing and sitting down on the corner of the bed. He gave a grumpy sigh, next question would ether have them down each others throats again, or be very awkward. He could handle ether, but, he'd prefer the second seeing as they were sleeping in the same room, and maybe same bed one day, "So, whats the deal with the blood drinking, and sun light crap? I thought Vampires were only in storybooks?" So, maybe that wasn't the best way to word it, or best time to ask, but, he had to know, or else it drive him fucking lunny, and then there would be fighting, ranting, and exploding tempers. Wasn't like he could forget ether, seeing as there was still blood on his boots......

Mary

Wolf was out of the car before Mary could thank her for the words of encouragement. She got out of the car, she didn't really want the umbrella over her, but she didn't want to fight with the servants, or her brother, so with Cleopatra in her arms she fallowed the young man with the umbrella to the door, where another servant, this one a young lady, informed her that dinner would be ready at 6pm, and led her to the room she would be sharing with Nick. When she entered, she immediately chose the bed closest to the window, placing Cleo on the bed, she pointed to the bed when the servants brought in her stuff. After they left, she waited for Nick as she put her things away. They had separate closets, beds, and dressers, they might have well have had separate rooms, in fact, Mary would have preferred maybe sharing the room with another female.
Mary placed Cleopatra's food dish by her bedside table, she smiled as the small cat jumped to the floor to eat. Mary heard Nick enter and she gave a nervous smile, she was terrified at the though of being alone with him, when she was around her step-brother, the conversation came a little easier.






RJ


Rj fallowed Mary in, pleased to see that their rooms were just across the hall from each others. He knocked on the closed door, knowing Wolf was possible changing from her wet clothes. He got no response so he entered the room. He had his servants put his things on the floor, he was going to let Wolf pick her side of the room, he noticed the closed bathroom door and heard the sound of someone moving in water. He knocked on the door and said "I'm just letting you know that I'm in here, I wouldn't want you to come out exposing things neither one of us wants me to see." He chuckled and remembered something else, "Oh, and you get to choose the side of the room you want." He walked away from the door, sitting in a small chair in the corner. As he waited for Wolf to finish her bath he watched through the door he had forgotten to close as Nick walked into the room he would be sharing with Mary.





Arabella

Arabella nodded when he spoke her name, she smiled softly as he introduced himself. She quickly slid into the cab, with a small word of thanks when he opened the door. She sat as far away from him as possible, she refused to let even their knees touch. She folded down her parasol, the pink lace being useless in the rain, and a closed vehicle. She did her best to smile at him, trying to form words, but the fear of being basically alone with him made her lose her train of thought, and left her unable to form words. She sat there quietly, starring out the window, waiting for him to speak.

The whole car ride had been spent in silence for Nick. He was nervously awaiting their destination, all of his willpower spent on keeping from freaking out. It almost came as a shock when the car lurched to a halt and everyone began piling on out. Quickly pulling himself out, a servant apparently struggling with his heavy, gently jangling briefcase tottered after him.

Nick told the servant exactly where the briefcase should go and the man gladly dropped it before giving a quick bow. The servant trotted away, and Nick opened the briefcase. He was glad that Mary had taken the brighter side of the room, for he was far more used to the darkness of his own home.

Onto the top of the dresser went various beakers, full of strangely coloured liquids, all neatly labelled with their chemical names.
"I certainly hope the trip hasn't affected my results." Nick commented, mostly to himself. He wrote a few notes in a leather-bound book and placed it carefully next to the beakers. As soon as he started pulling clothing from the briefcase, it was obvious how meticulous he was, colours being arranged by type, colour, size and quite probably some other minor details.

Mary

Mary sat on the edge of her bed, she watched Nick place beakers on his dresser. She looked at them curiously, she stood up and walked over to get a closer look. "What are these?" She turned to watch him hang his clothes, noticing that he color coded his things. Mary smiled remembering the way her birth father had his things ordered by color, with different groupings within the colors. "So, um Nick, what kind of things are you into?"

Malaki Amanar

Malaki yawned and sat down in the car. He closed the door and relaxed a bit. He leaned forward and talked to the driver, "Head out to this address." He handed the driver a piece of paper with the address written down on it. "Thanks."

Malaki looked over at his fiance. She seemed nervous or maybe scared of him. "Look, I didn't want this either. But if we have to be stuck together let's at least acknowledge each other." He leaned slightly against the door and looked over at her.

"I'm not here to run your life. I could care less about this marriage. I just don't want you all awkward and what not." He shrugged and looked out the window waiting for her reply.

"These beakers? My latest experiment. I'm testing the reactions of a new metal alloy to certain chemicals. The alloy is intended to be resistant to these chemicals, but I was asked to test longer periods of exposure. So far so good, except for this one." Nick pointed to a very gently bubbling beaker with a semi-clear liquid, where a small cube of metal was partially corroded.
"It's to be expected, that was a strong acid." he explained.

"What am I into..?" he frowned, trying to think of what he was into. He was only slightly surprised that he could only think of one thing.
"I'm into chemistry. It's my job, actually. I'm a research scientist in the field of chemistry."

"Oh, that's quite interesting. I was never really good at science, but I do find it interesting." She smiled at him, a little less nervous now that they were talking about interests . "I love reading, and writing. I'm not usually social." She looked over at the clock on the wall. "Dinner will be in half an hour, do you need help putting anything away?"





Arabella

Arabella's head snapped up at the sound of his voice. "Oh, um sorry. I'm not really happy with the idea of marriage either, I'm only doing this bec- ... for my mother." She frowned inwardly at herself. She had almost told him the true reason she was going through with the wedding. She had never told any one but her mother about what her father had done. She sat up straight and waited for them to arrive at the mansion. \

"Books are good to read." Nick blurted out the first thing that came to his mind. It made him sound like an idiot, so he quickly tried to distract her from his inane comment.
"I'm not really all that social either. I.. I spend more time in my lab than with people. Much more time." Nick re-adjusted his glasses.

"No, I'm already done." Nick waved a hand about to show her. The top of the dresser was covered in small beakers, while the dresser itself was filled with all of his clothing. Most of the clothes were fairly plain.

Alex tensed when he stepped closer wanting to jerk away from him. When he finished she turned sidways crossing her arms. "For one I don't need you help. With anything. Ever. Got it? Memorize it. As for the vampire thing. They do only exist in fairytales. Then again, doesn't this recent chapter make it obvious?" she said with a slight smirk. She knew the indirect track back would aggrivate him and thats what she wanted. She let him simmer for a few moments longer then what was nessiccary just to let his fustration build.

"I'm sensitive to sunlight and need blood to avoid inner complications. Thats all you need to know. Whatever you call me is of your own concern not mine. Personally I'd prefer you'd never call me again. Especcially since I can tell the obivous. You and I do not mesh. You want nothing to do with me as doesn no one else so I honestly suggest telling 'mommy and daddy' the truth before you're stuck with the blind freak." Alexandria stated plainly. She then stepped across the room with the grace that only a swordsman would know. She found the bottle of vodka that he'd set down and held it in her own hands. Her thumbs caressed the bottle letting her eyes face the glass that she could never begin to see. She set it back down and sighed, waiting to him to pop again.

I heard RJ come in even before it seemed like him yelling through the door. My ears were quite delicate. I sighed, and let the water drain as I let my hair fall down onto my shoulders, wavy and blonde as I put a towel around me and walked out the bathroom, steam emptying into the cold aired room. The temperature did not bother me however. " I don't mind what side I get as long as the bed is comfortable. " I announced looking at this..RJ with a curiou slook. I didn't mind I was wet or just in a towel, for I did have a towel on and it was good enough for me as cover. I yawned and asked than, " would you like to clean yourself or is the rain a good enough shower for you?" I asked sarcastically, as I took out my stuff, which wasn't to my liking. I moaned. My mother had packed and I had specifically asked her NOT to bring dresses or any of that sort. I ran into the bathroom and gathered my clothes before I moaned again at what she packed me. " I guess I'm wearing the same thing every day.." I whispered to Rj as I showed him what mom packed me.

First, it was a black laced silk dress with a bow at the back that probably barely covered my underwear, and immidiatley made me think of sluts. " IS it ok if I borrow some of your clothes? My mother does not probably know you hate this as much as I do.. and I rather wear you clothes. Please don't give me something you've already worn however..."

Red's right eye rose a bit. Was this bitch serious? He started get up, his eyes turning on her all to sharply. Didn't need help? Fine, he'd quit trying to be nice, obviously little miss princess just wouldn't have it. Some spoiled little girl with more issues then newspaper company, "Tch... what ever ya damned, little, fucked up cunt." Red shook his head, grunting like a bull as he turned to the door to walk out. If she was going to act this way about it, why should even bother? A few generations of tradition? He already decided to rebel against that by joining the army. His sister's blessings? That one would hurt a bit, but, she'd understand. His parents? Like he cared, they had treated him like a stray ever since he could remember, the dog they didn't want around, but wouldn't kick out. So.... instead they had chained him up, to her....

Red had just stopped at the door, handle opening, one foot out when the epiphany hit him. This was their way to tame him. And she wasn't gonna have it, even though he'd would have given it a try. He'd curse his legacy if not for all the good it brought him. He sighed heavily, snorting once more like a bull, then smiled, grinned, and started to chuckle.

He let go of the door, and stepped back, his back arching back his truly started to laugh, there was a hint of pure unbridled joy, the rest was evil homicidal maniac. He had to take a deep breath, and put a hand on the door frame, looking of at the blind freak. What to do with her? What to do in dead. Ne need in marring her, no need in trying to screw her ether. What did she want? Go back home to being spoiled? Fine, he could arrange for that along side his new goal. His fury was practically evaporated as he started to walk out of the room, striding lightly, the grin on his face the largest danger sign to ever be seen by man, all Greeks smiled when angry, he was absolutely beaming. He had just found out the worlds biggest joke, and he and her were the the buts of it. Oh, his parents.... no.... his father would pay dearly for this.

Alex listened and smiled. Her mad again. He was going to storm out of the room. Then something happened. Her grin faded slightly. He laughed? She sighed. He was laughing? Joy? How? She cursed herself. After he left she grabbed the bottle of alcohol by the neck and threw it with deadly accuracy. The bottle shattered against the wall where behind where his head had been only a few moments before.

A sob escaped her. Alex wondered to herself if she would ever be free. At this rate? Not a chance. Not if her patranizing him was entertaining him more then anything. With the sob came a wave of pain from her side and chest. She felt to her knees gripping both as the tears began flooding over her. This was all a sick game their parents were playing and Alex was the pawn. She knew what she was to him. A weight, and anchor, and he was nothing more then a good word to her usless state. Or so her parents believed. She listened to the rain outisde. Rain. Rain meant clouds.

Alex smiled. If it was raining there was no sun. Andria loved the rain more then anything in the world. She couldn't risk the halls. Letting red see a softer, childish side of her would ruin everything, but she couldn't resist the water's pattering call. She crossed the room in two strides, stepping out of her shoes as she did. She walked towards the glass door smiling as she slide it open and stepped outside. No burning.

Alex took hold of the railing and breathed deep as she faced the sky, letting the rain drench her completely. Her black dress clung to her as she moved to sit on the railing before leapiing the ten feet to the ground. she smiled as she stood up straight, taking in the scents of the garden that now surrounded her. She pushed her hair back out of her face then held her arms out wide spinning lightly. Her feet taking to the mud with unnatual grip. She began to dance lightly, a joyous smile across her face.

For anyone this was a sight to see. Alex's figure was fully shown through the soaked black dress to clung to her pale skin. Her strong Italian features lit up by the beautiful smile on her deep red lips. The dim lighting of the day seeming to bleach the world around her making her harsh tones soften. This was a true sight to behold as she danced her waltz with her imaginary prince in the rain with the grace of a delicate woodland creature.

Red could be heard chuckling lightly down the halls, oh, why hadn't he decided to do this earlier? Everyone won this way, the blind princess could do what ever int he hell she wanted, his mother be ridded of that bastard called his father, and he'd be free of all them. It would take a while to get back home, cruise ship, or naval ship, both were slow. But, he'd get there.

He turned a corner, a smile still radiating off his face, and his eyes caught something that made him take a step back. A window to the court yard inside the manor walls, nothing out of the normal, why in hell had he stopped to.... Then he saw what caught his eye the first time, Alex... dancing in the rain. A small fruit tree had blocked his vision for a second, but now, he could see her plain as day, soaked completely wet. Her dress was thin, and sticking to her, mostly shear. He couldn't make out any fine details from the distance like he had in their room, but her figure was plain as day, the dancing just showed it off more. Yet, that's not what made him stop, naked girls were a dime a dozen, it was the smile. Reminded him of his halve sister....

Red sighed heavily. He just had to make the damned connection. He looked up and to the right, gritting his teeth a bit, he wanted to pissed at her, at his father, at all this. But, no way in hell was he going to get that satisfaction now. Calming down to a simmer, his left eye twitched as he watched. She had a nice side, so what, it didn't matter. She didn't want any part of him, and in truth, he had no want of her. Sure, she was good looking, but she was high mountain as hell, and moody than he was. At least he tried to be nice about this shit.

He shrugged, and turned to start walking further down the hall. His fire was dampened a bit, but his plans hadn't changed. Only way in hell he'd be stopped now was if ether if his sister showed up, Alex ran up to hug him and apologize, or some house guard got in his way. And that last option, would only really slow him down.

Alex laughed as she began to spin as fast as she could. She felt the wind and rain pounding against her. The water falling in her eyes made her tear up a bit. Soon, however, her side came back through to her concious mind and she stopped.

Alexandria gripped her side gasping a bit. After a minute she couldn't help but think of her sister, she always did. Then her thoughts went to Red. She turly wasn't being fair to him. He had been trying to be kind to her maybe he wouldn't try holding her back. Hell even if they did get married, maybe she could talk him into traveling. He didn't seem like the kind of man to stay in one place very long to be honest.

She sighed. Alex's fears had been driving her so much today that she'd never stopped to really think this all through. He thought her a freak. Everyone did, and that truly irritated her. But at least he'd been honest about anything on his mind. He'd honestly been the only one who seemed to think about her here. Even if he'd caused it, he had saved her life weather he realized the extent of her condition or not. She sighed again. If nothing else she'd let him have as many girls as he wanted and they'd stay out of each other's way. He at least seemed like a man to compromise on something like that.

Alex shook her head. She had to fix this. He probably though she was a snob by this point. If nothing else Flamma seemed very quick tempered and irrational. She took a deep breath then started around front. On of the butlers opened the door for her and she could tell he was staring at her.

Alexandria shrugged off the idea to scold him and smiled sweetly. "Please, would you bring Sir Prognatis to our room. He left a little bit ago and I need to speak with him." she asked kindly.

Red had just reached the manor's front door, and was reaching out to grab it when a girl came running up to him, bowing profusely, and said his attendance was requested on the other side of the manor. His right eye raised a bit, "The hell?" The girl shook her head in honest unknowing, saying she just got a call from one of the servants. Red sighed, his stomach starting to churn, why him? He had places to sail, people to kill, things to do, women that would actually act reasonably to meet up with. "Which room?" He was going to castrate the servant that called for him, and kill who ever summoned him. 'Yours.... Sir.'

He face went to a mix of blank and death. She, of all people? What, had she melted in the rain too? Had the personality to be a witch, that was for sure. He snorted and started back up the hall, steps heavy and angry. First, she pours blood on his fucking boots, then bitches at him, later, she continues to bitch at him and be an ass when he was trying to be kind, and told him to get lost. Fine, he could except that, no problem, fix both their problems, again, no fucking problem. But now, she was yanking his chain back to her for what fucking reason? What on Earth could she want to tell him time? Remind him to let the door hit him on the way out? She was so fucking dead....

A butler came up to him, starting to tell him he had been the one to call, he had his face clubbed with a fist, knocking him to ground, out cold. Wimp. He went a bit further to the door of his room, and lifted his leg, kicking the door in, busting the lock to junk, and probably loosening the hinges, "What is it this time! Huh! What in Hell could you have left to say to me you little slut! You want me go, I was going, I'll fix this marriage shit up in a hurry, and you can go back to your Dark Little Room, All Alone and ROT for all I care!" Red's anger had gotten the best of him, it always had, more so when he was pulled back and force. Drove him absolutely batty. Not much would cool his head this time, then again, how could anything be expect to. The thing Red hated more than anything, was bullshit, being lead around, and getting yanked on, Alex had just accomplished all three, in one day no less.

Alexandria had made it to their room quickly and on her own through much prodding by the servants. She had sighed and was sitting with her back to the door, on the edge of the bed. She had been towel drying her hair when Red burst in. She sighed and took everything he thrw at her and she never once broke face. She held a small smile as she stood turning to face him. She continued to listen as she folded the towel over her arm and her eyes even seemed to watch him with that hallowness.

"What is it this time! Huh! What in Hell could you have left to say to me you little slut! You want me go, I was going, I'll fix this marriage shit up in a hurry, and you can go back to your Dark Little Room, All Alone and ROT for all I care!" He was bellowing at her and she knew she deserved it. Alex sighed and before she could stop herself her first reaction passed her lips with a hint of pain behind them. "You didn't have to answer my call." Then she took a deep breath and cotinued. "I honestly just want to apologize. Your girst comment to me had set me on edge. I've spent my life trying to live for my sister and my parents have done anything in there power and beyond to keep me hidden and locked away." She closed her eyes and sigh. Crying wasn't going to help now and bringing up Angel at this moment was pointless.

"It's the fact that I'm so used to putting up a wall, it's become a habit of pushing others away. heh. Look. If its what you want, leave. I won't try to stop you or bother you again. I just.....I don't want to get locked down in any one place. I want more then anything to travel and do as much as I can. I hate being, how you say, locked in my 'Dark Little Room.' I simply want to propose that if you do deciside to stay and go through with that that I'll stay out of your way if you stay out of mine. Thats all I ask. And....as for your questions before. No. I'm not a vampire. I have Porphyra which is a missing enzime in my stomach. It also causes an extreme sensitivity to sunlight. The extra blood in my stomach is supossed to help it. In all, I'm actually a bit fragile but I've trained with the gaurds for several years so I'm not as bad as I should be. In all though I'm sorry for treating you this way. I'm not nearly as bad as I seem to be." Alex finished feeling like she had been a bit long winded but she had needed to explain herself. The entire time the smile never left her face and the light in her eyes hadn't faded. She shook her head finally letting her head drop a bit.

"Now if you wish to leave. Thank you. For both listening to me.....and saving my life." Alex said the last few words moving to touch her chest where she could feel a few of the open sores. She then turned walking towards the glass doors finally letting the tears she'd been blocking flood her eyes but only one ever left her eye.

Because ten billion years' time
is so fragile, so ephemeral...
it arouses such a bittersweet,
almost heartbreaking fondness.

Red listened, then took a long, heavy breath, letting it out slowly. He was still pissed at her, by every means, but, even he could understand where she was coming from. Although, the idea did come to his head, why in hell would he still stay. His parents? As if, he still planned to kill his father. His mother? Definitely not, she probably choose Alex herself. His sister? She had to go through the same crap he going threw now. She said it was OK, that she had gotten lucky, but, that was a different situation. He hadn't, even if she had all thous medical conditions, that just made it worse. All he wanted was his freedom to do as he pleased.

But, thats what she wanted to, wasn't it? She didn't want him, but, she didn't want to be locked up ether, and she was to frail and disease ridden to do anything but. He kinda felt sorry for her. But why in hell should he? Cause of some sob story? This was the same bitch who poured blood on his boots and was pulling his strings like a marenit. His left eye twitched a bit.

He watched for a second, then looked out side. Still raining. He hated the cold, the room had a faint chill, it was a cold rain. He sighed heavily, and quickly, sounding closer to a grunt than anything, he'd compromise, just this once, but only for today and tonight so he could some decent sleep, and long as she stayed reasonable. Then, tomorrow, he'd leave.

"Your apologies to late, and to lacking. But... the rain isn't slowing down, and its cold. Promise not to be a pain, and I'll sleep here. Other wise, I'll walk and find somewhere else despite the rain."
As he said that, he stepped in, and sat on the bed. He sighed once more, a bit lighter this time, his head was cooling down, but his stomach was still churning, and his head was throbbing. He started to lick his teeth, cleaning them a bit, before asking, "Just what in hell in do you want? You've been dragging me around all damn day, then give me this sad story to make me feel sorry for you. So, cut all the bull, and extra, and just tell me, straight out, what do you want? You don't want me, fine. Don't want to be locked away, I understand. Do want freedom? A life? A family? Be realistic. I'm listening" His head had turned to stare at her, he didn't expect to much for a answer, but he hoped to be surprised. If it was a worth while one, and flowed with his intentions, he might be tempted to help her, he wasn't that lacking in compassion.

Alex sighed as she listened to him. "I promise to let you sleep." Then he asked the question she'd always hated. 'What do you want?' She shook her head. "I honestly want many things. Beling realistic though as you ask, I want a life without walls. Simple enough? I don't want to be held down and I don't want to hold down others. I'm living for one reason only and that would be my now deseased twin sister. Honestly I think you would have liked her. Everyone had. I did not tell you all of this for your pity, only for your understanding."

Alex sighed as she turned facing towards him again "What I told you before still stands. I don't need your help and nor to I honestly want it. I'm sorry my apology was lack but honestly, your first comment truly irked me. I'm often treated as a freak as you can guess. I'm used to that. But to be thought weak of the nerves, or weak in any sense honestly is my largest instigator. Beyond that In short, all I want is to own my own life for once. I honestly just hope yoou find what you're looking for."

Alex then shook her head ashe she closed her eyes just listening to the rain. She knew what him leaving would cause for her. She be locked away perminitly. For the rest of her life it would be the same estate, the same four walls. Her existance would be unknown to all and forgotten by those who already knew of her. Her heart twisted. She'd failed her sister and she reached up gripping the necklace tightly breathing deep, fighting tears. She'd ruined her final chance at freedom.
