.: April 18 - Early Evening :.
The night and early morning left her far more exhausted then she had realized. Or was it that she hadn't slept in the last thirty-six hours. The panic of losing Gizmo was only the start. Then the thing with Horam. Almost pretty sure that if things continued on the path they were already on, the two of them were going to go at it like rivals.
Sleep had came hard and she didn't even realize that she had basically passed out. She didn't want to. She wanted to be there to comfort him when it seemed he was in a very uncomfortable state. But then again he was the one who told her it was okay for her to sleep.
"You know it's a pity you were not born into a family like mine. I find myself actually pitying you. A monster such as you, discarded even by her own mother and father, shall never know what it is to be truly loved. Neither by that of family or by a lover. You are nothing more then a tool to be used and discarded. A monster. A weapon. A creature with no purpose in life other then to destroy and be destroyed." Words fell from the beautiful man's lips with both disgust and a low strain of what could of possibly been pity. It was hard to tell when he didn't exactly take pity in other matters.
"You are wrong" Her sleeping mind disagreed...
Stirring didn't occur until after dark and it was nearly mistaken for still early morning. Rolling onto her side with a sigh she realized she felt all snug and warm. Something soft kissed at her cheeks. An eye rolled open and directed to the empty place next to her then past towards the window. It was dark and..
Her eye drifted to the table and chair to find it empty save for what looked like two piece of parchments. Sighing she closed her eyes and drifted down to snuggle into the warmth around her. After a handful of moments her awakened mind tugged her eyes back open and they turned onto the whiteness that surrounded her. His..blanket. Had he wrapped her up in it before he left? Cheeks felt warm and she snuggled her face down into the blanket. It still smelled like the scent it had been softened with, mingled with the ever familiar scent that belonged to Toby. His scent. She was content to stay just like that.
And she did. At least for a few hours..
However, as time passed she grew more awake and unsettled. Sighing she finally crawled out from under the blanket. She didn't want to but it was probably for the best. Sniffing she looked at the chair and just stared at it. Her chest felt as if someone had been sitting on her chest. Shaking her head she turned her head and puckered up her lips to make a smoochy sound what usually got Gizmo to her side. And yet this time..it didn't. She blinked and took a quick exploration of the room to find the pup not present.
"Toby must of took him." speaking to herself with a little smile. Settling down into the chair she turned attention to the papers on the table. They were not there when she went to sleep. Reaching out she pulled both towards her and picked up the newer looking one first. Fingers flicked to unfold the paper so she could read what was on it. She blinked at the two words scribbled on the paper. 'You promised.' She felt a lump in her throat suddenly and her eyes drifted towards the parchment that looked as if it had seen better days. If that was what she thought it was she now understood why he wasn't present. Her lips twitched and formed into a weak smile. The note was folded and lowered onto the table as she stood and the parchment was picked up with utmost care.
Carrying it with her she returned to the bed and flopped down onto her stomach. Curling up in the blanket she carefully unfolded the parchment. Bracing herself she started to read...
