Jasper grinned but it was tense, he was ready for anything.
Twilight closed her eyes and melted in his arms. They had a long day ahead of them. She was happy with this one moment though. ooc: okay. C ya tomorrow.
Twilight looked up into his eyes, caressing the side of his face. "I don't see any problem." She whispered, a smile tugging at her lips.
HI!...hm...alone again...bye!
"Oh my..." Tears were filling Twilights eyes as well. She wrapped her arms around him and held him tight. "I'm so sorry..."
Twilight burried her face in her knees and breathed, not wanting to see Gharanth's face when she told him. "There was a boy..." She said finally. "A dead boy..."
"Please don't look at me like that Gharanth." She was aching to tell him everything. She just coundn't refuse that face. It hurt to see him sad, more than anything in the world. She'd rather be tortured 7 trillion times again than see him upset. "I do want to tell you but I can't...I don't want to hurt you as the memory will." She hugged her knees up against her chest.
She so wanted to tell him but she held back. She didn't like keeping things from him but she feared the memory she'd...aquired from him might be painful for him. She would NOT put him in any pain if she could. She NEVER wanted Gharanth hurt in any way and she would do anything to make it so.
"Nothing upsets me, Gharanth. There is absolutely nothing I don't like about your touch." She ran her hand over the side of his face as if to prove it, eyes shineing as she did.
"You call it. We using weapons this first time or are we going free hand?"
"I know you will protect me." She sat closer to him. "And I will work hard so that I may return the favor if need be." She stopped, the picture of the dead boy from her dreams flashing in her eyes as she brushed Gharanth's arm. She shook away the memory and pasted on a smile as she ate.
Twilight's eyes opend wide. She had been awake a few minutes ago but had been to tired to rise. She smiled at Gharanth, sitting up. "It's gonna take some time getting used to my own personal chef." She scooted over so Gharanth could sit. "Thank you. Wont you please join me for breakfast?"
Jasper grinned and rolled his shoulders. "Let's get started then."
Twilight surged awake earlier than normal. The sun was just comming up over the crest of mountains and the sky was a bright blood red. She blinked over at Gharanth who lay next to her and tried to recal what had happend in the last day. When she found she could still remember, she smiled to herself and touched Gharanth's face gentally.
That night, Twilight dreamed she was clutching a thin, lifeless boy in her arms, his skin was burned and bloody and his grey eyes faded with death. She cried over him for quite some time in her dream before the vision left her completely and she fell into a more restful sleep. ooc: i gotta go. Ill be back a little later.
Twilight knew she was in her bed but couldn't remeber how she'd gotten there. She was too tired to think about it though. She sighed and rolled onto her side, closing her eyes. "Good night, Gharanth." She whispered into the darkness. Then she fell into a nightmarish sleep. She tossed and turned through the night, her dreams torturing her.
"I'm not hurt, Gharanth." She had tears in her eyes and she wiped them away. "Just a bit tired...Gharanth...I think that man was the one from my dream." Her eyes sagged and she leaned against him, suddenly exhausted. Like the world was comming down on top of them.
Twilight shuddered. She could feel the pain radiating from Gharanth even as Xana disapeared. Reaching forward, she took his hand, squeezing it tightly.
Twilight's hair brushed back from her face. She had never seen Gharanth use the wind orb before.
"You really think we'd do that?" She raised her eyebrows, beginning to take slow steps backwards.
