If Looks Could Kill

Post by **Tree** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 7:22 pm

Ashleigh looked at him, sparing him a slight smile.

" You eat more then this, I know you well enough for that, please..."

Post by **Sushi** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 7:29 pm

Darryn just nodded at this. Okay. He obeyed, shoving more food into his mouth and swallowing. Soon, his portion was gone.

Post by **Tree** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 7:32 pm

Ashleigh sighed again, and gave up, just seeming to give up on everything. the poor woman just wiped at the tears that fell now, choking back millions more as she forced herself to keep eating. She had to. If she didn't, she'd break down and go running off the edge of the planet.

Darryn was just absently playing with his fork. He was quiet for a while, not looking up at her during that period.

"I'd always pick you, you know. I'd do it again."

Despite what came of it. Despite the pain of waking up from that dream.

Post by **Tree** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 7:38 pm

Ashleigh looked up at him, slowly moving and taking his hand, tugging him up with her. He would learn she was not such and unbreakable thing as their being together continued, for she wondered into the streets, seeming to be hurt and thrilled at the sight of everything, before venturing anything.

" When I was very young, i would sometimes be allowed to come here with my mother... those times, i was allowed to be me. To dream, to hope. ... I was allowed escape from the life she knew me to have later on."

She purred absently, recalling the running and playing she'd been permitted here.

Darryn just walked with her, listening. He spoke softly after a while.

"Do you remember before that? Do you remember before you became what you are, when you were just human?"

Post by **Tree** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 7:45 pm

Ashleigh looked like she might blow away in the wind now as she nodded.

" Yes."

She purred faintly, looking to the starry skies above.

" Better life then, only worry was to die, now though..."

Now life presented her the offer of living in misery once she was forced to let go of Darryn next time.

Darryn reached to intertwine his fingers with hers. He seemed honestly interested in what she was talking about. After she fell silence, he prodded the air with another question.

"What did it feel like? To be human? What does the sun feel like?"

Post by **Tree** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 7:54 pm

" their is no describing it..."

she purred gently, smiling a bit more.

" It is so vibrant, making all the colors pop under it's gracious touch. It warms the soul, not just the body, bringing out children, families, parents, dogs, smiles, good humors, laughter, friendship. It naturally aides in curing depression... it kisses over yours skin more intimately then a lover, and an caress you with warmth none could ever dream to compare to."

she purred, thinking about the days she'd enjoyed under the sunlight.

Darryn smiled ever so faintly, eyes wandering the darkness of the street. He looked up at the sky for a moment. He used to imagine what the sun looked like, or what the light from it might feel like.

"What color is it?"

People said that it was yellow. He liked to imagine that it was the color of a dandelion.

Post by **Tree** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 8:04 pm

" it's pure..."

She started gently, thinking of the way to try to explain this.

" it is too pure of a light to gaze at directly, to glen from it the proper color. You stare straight at it, and it is blinding. It is brighter then the strongest of light bulbs, but upon staring at such blindingness, you are greeted with a faint yellowness to it. But honestly, your absorded in the bright white center of the golden globe."

Post by **Sushi** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 8:15 pm

Darryn nodded slowly.

"What does it feel like to be small?"

He didn't mean physically. He meant... what did it feel like when it was okay to be weak? When you could just be what you were?

"Does that really exist?"

Post by **Tree** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 8:20 pm

" No, not really, even with humans, the stronger prey upon the weaker, more so in the male side, then the female side, but still clearly there. "

Post by **Sushi** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 8:28 pm

Darryn nodded slightly now. The man then paused, finding that they had walked themselves into the middle of nowhere.

"I used to imagine what it would be like to get lost and never be able to make it home."

But to him the thought had been pleasant.

Post by **Tree** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 8:34 pm

" I use to play hide and seek in the hopes I'd never be found and become forgotten."

She replied simply with a little shrug.

Post by **Sushi** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 8:46 pm

Darryn glanced at her.

"Maybe we aren't so different after all."

Post by **Tree** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 10:42 pm

Ashleigh nodded slowly.

" I never claimed we were."

Post by **Sushi** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 10:59 pm

Darryn smiled lightly.

"I never did either."

Sometimes, though, it was easy to get caught up in what you are being told.

Post by **Tree** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 11:10 pm

Ashleigh smiled up towards him, leaning over and stealing a kiss, and then demanding the second one, giggling, if briefly, before she pulled back.

" we are in the middle of no mans land."

Post by **Sushi** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 11:15 pm

Darryn's smile touched his eyes.

"I seem to always find my way back to there, don't I?"

He actually just teased her!

Post by **Tree** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 11:18 pm

Ashleigh smiled up at him, and shifted, tripping him and easily pinning him upon the ground, leaning over and letting her face hover just over his.

" If only we could figure out how to stay."

Post by **Sushi** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 11:28 pm

Darryn's eyes poured over her face. He wasn't fighting her.

"Sleep forever."

That was the only answer he had.

Post by **Tree** » Mon Apr 18, 2011 11:33 pm

Ashleigh sighed, moving down the last few inches to kiss him again.

we need a better answer then this.

She stated faintly.

Post by **Sushi** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 6:28 pm

Darryn slowly reached up, touching the side of her face. Then, he leaned up and caught her lips sweetly and perhaps a moment longer than he should have.

This can work for now.

Post by **Tree** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 7:59 pm

this could work forever, if we weren't who we are.

she pointed out, easily letting herself lay atop him as she continued to kiss him.

Post by **Sushi** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 8:02 pm

Darryn was quiet now. However, it wasn't one of those smacked into silence things. This was him harboring the private thought of how he would like to enjoy it again - smiling and laughing and joking and getting into trouble with her - while he could. He was trying to ignore the multitude of his own nags in the back of his head, telling him that he shouldn't, that... Well... Actually, he was already here.

Post by **Tree** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 8:05 pm

Ashleigh smiled, kissing over his neck, smiling at how the grass was taller then they, keeping them hidden, even from prying human eyes.. should they be discovered, herself happy to remain here, but unfortunately, she knew they would have to rise... The sun would return before long.

Post by **Sushi** » Tue Apr 19, 2011 9:55 pm

Darryn actually just reached out and held her until that time drew nearer. Then, his eyes lifted to the woman.

Am I to die today?

Post by **Tree** » Wed Apr 20, 2011 3:22 am

As poetic as it would be, I fear I can not allow such a thing as the sun rob me of your presence.

she purred lovingly, slowly forcing her body to move and leading towards a near by network of tunnels and caves, wondering in with him.

Post by **Sushi** » Wed Apr 20, 2011 3:55 pm

Darryn let his eyes wander across the cave walls. It was interesting. Light danced across them in very faint ripples as though reflected off of water - yet there was no source. They seemed to just glow on their own.

Poetic? Try painful.

Post by **Tree** » Wed Apr 20, 2011 4:04 pm

Either way, we are safe and sound, hidden away nicely from the prying eyes of others.

she purred, climbing up and onto a bed that looked long forgotten, but she seemed right at home with it.

Post by **Sushi** » Wed Apr 20, 2011 4:13 pm

I bet the movers loved you.

Darryn could picture them double and then triple checking the address on their delivery sheet.

Post by **Tree** » Wed Apr 20, 2011 4:17 pm

I can soundly lift the bed... but I did happen to have this delivered.. I ended up having to meet them and show them in. ... I tip well.

She purred, laughing slightly as she pulled him up to the bed with her.

Post by **Sushi** » Wed Apr 20, 2011 4:30 pm

Really now? I wouldn't have guessed.

The smart aleck sat down in the bed with her, giving her a crooked smile.

Post by **Tree** » Wed Apr 20, 2011 4:36 pm

Ashleigh rolled her eyes, moving to kiss him eagerly.

Smart ass.

Post by **Sushi** » Wed Apr 20, 2011 4:45 pm

Since when has that bothered you?

Darryn took her kisses rather easily.

Post by **Tree** » Wed Apr 20, 2011 4:49 pm

Just reminding you that is what you are. not bothered by it.

She laughed slightly, eventually cuddling down with him, fingers playing on his bare chest. His shirt just didn't belong.

Post by **Sushi** » Wed Apr 20, 2011 8:45 pm

Darryn stuck his tongue out at her in defiance. Then, his arms slipped around her slowly, pulling her to him. He pressed his face into her hair and then withdrew slightly, just looking at her. Something on your mind?

Post by **Tree** » Wed Apr 20, 2011 9:43 pm

Id be okay with living in caves unknown and unlocated if I could keep you, you know.

she purred absently, looking up at him.

Post by **Sushi** » Wed Apr 20, 2011 9:57 pm

You'd be okay being a hermit in a cave either way. I mean, look at where I found you!

Darryn poked her nose lightly.
