What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?

Lorienna smiled. “Well, I think I’ll go do it sometime later, or maybe tomorrow. I’m so excited now!” She clapped her hands together and jumped up and down, much like a little kid would when they’d get happy over something. Her ears perked up and she ran over to him, pulling him into a hug. Not because he agreed on the haircut, but because she couldn’t stay away from him too long. It was safe to say that she was attached to him, but not in the freaky always gotta be by your side way. Just the way a normal girlfriend would be.

Blizz was almost knocked over by Lori's energetic hug, finding that he couldn't help but smile as she held him close. "Yeah, just a bit excited, I'd say," he spoke, gently placing a kiss on her cheek before gently pulling away from the embrace.

"So, if a hair cut gets you this excited, I'd hate to see something that really excites you," he spoke, smiling at her in a playful manner.

“Really excites me? Well, there are a few things… you happen to be one of them.” She said in a casual manner, then she winked, just to add to it. Then, for some strange reason, it had just hit her that the two of them were months away from becoming parents. The thought of marriage also popped into her mind for some reason, why, she didn’t know, and she thought it best to bring it up right now, while the two of them were in a happy state.

“Blizz… I was just thinking about the baby, and then about us. Um…” Then she stopped. She knew that it would sound weird if she asked him about getting married, because that was his job and she didn’t want to rush it. Sighing, she shook her head, but continued smiling nonetheless. “Nevermind.”

Blizz felt his ears part, sticking out at odd angles to express just how confused he was at the moment. He was absolutely positive that Lori had been about to say something important, but then, half way through, she seemed to just give up on it. Blizz, a little worried, brought his body closer to Lori's, trying his best to comfort her.

"Lori...are you okay?"

Lorienna nodded, then she pointed to her mouth, “I’m still smiling, right? So, that must mean I’m alright.” She replied, and then she wrapped her arms around Blizz’s waist and rested her head on his chest, turning her head so that she was looking towards the bar, eyes narrowed. Her tail stopped swaying and just lay limp, as it had before, and her ears drooped a bit.

Blizz nodded at her words and returned Lorienna's embrace when she gave it, but couldn't help but notice just how her ears and tail were acting. As he himself had noted so long ago, it was hard for a fox demon to keep their emotions fully to themselves, as their foxin appendages tended to display whatever they were feeling.

"Whatever you say...," he whispered to her, his own ears dipping as he spoke. If Lori didn't want to tell him what she was thinking, Blizz wasn't going to force it out of her. All he could do was to hold her in his arms, and hope that she'd feel better soon.

Lorienna found it really hard to say what was on her mind, plus she was getting a little tired. Letting go of Blizz, she walked over to the bar and reached behind it, feeling around for some paper. She finally found a notepad, probably used to take orders, and she grabbed a pen and began to scribble on it. Leaning against the bar so that her back was towards Blizz, so that he couldn’t see what she was writing. A few minutes later, she was done and she ripped the paper off of the pad and turned around, holding it out to Blizz.

It read:

I’m sorry, I’m just finding it really hard to tell you this. I figured that it was your place to bring it up, and that you’d be a little offended if I said anything. I’m not trying to rush anything, and this isn’t only because I’m pregnant. Even if I wasn’t, I’d still want this… right now. I want to marry you. I’m sorry if it’s sudden, but I can’t keep this in any longer. I love you so much, that I really want this. For the both of us.

Whether or not he’d take the note, she didn’t know, but she ran up the steps as soon as she held it out to him. He’d probably spend some time reading it, so she quickly changed into a nightgown and crawled into bed, tail wrapped around her waist, body in the fetal position as she fell asleep.

Blizz watched as Lori wrote whatever it was she was writing on the counter, his ears parting and his eyebrow raised. Lori had done some odd things while the two of them had been together, most of them only odd because of Blizz's naivety, but this one seemed to be odd given any circumstances. Things only got odder after he took the note from Lori's hand, and it was a few minutes before Blizz could even bring himself to read what was on the note, his eye still focused on the stairs that Lori had rushed up so quickly.

Of course, when he did read the note, it felt like his heart had started beating harder than it had been. Maybe he'd read it wrong, but rereading the note only made his heart beat even harder. "M-mary...me?" Blizz spoke to the empty bar, the note falling out of his slack hands and gently falling towards the ground below.

For some reason, Blizz couldn't help but to think that this must've been the happiest moment of his life. Ears twitching with glee, he jumped up and down a few times, a large goofy smile plastered on his face. There'd been plenty of great moments in this bar, and each time they happened Blizz couldn't help but think that things just couldn't get any better, but this time, things were different. There really couldn't be a time that would ever make him happier than this one, and he new that for a fact.

Around his fifth jump, Blizz remembered something that instantly brought his happiness down a few levels. Wait a second...Iwas the one that supposed to propose to Lori! Blizz's heart beat slowed down as he remembered just how things were supposed to work, and for a few seconds, things seemed their bleakest. But...well, he didn't have much time, but he'd be damned if he was going to let Lori down. Grabbing the pad and pen that Lori had been using only minutes earlier, Blizz scribbled down a few words and quickly tore the page off, rushing up the stairs two at a time to get to Lori's room.

It hurt Blizz to think that he'd have to leave Lori to sleep alone for the night. A lot, actually; as he saw her there, curled up in a ball, he almost couldn't muster the strength to go through with his plan. But this was something he had to do though, for the both of them, just as Lori had said. With a small smile Blizz gently placed the note he'd written onto the bed next to Lori, kissing her forehead before leaving the room and exiting the bar, quickly heading out into the city beyond.

---

Meanwhile, in Lori's room, a small breeze blew in from under the closed door, it's origin unknown. As this wind moved gently about the room, it caught the note that Blizz had written in it's grasp, sending it dancing about. Within seconds, the note had danced all the way over to the nearby open window, and continued to flutter out into the night air. As it gently descended towards the ground below, the words scribbled on the note gleamed in the moonlight. They read:

Lori, if I'm not back by the morning, please, wait up for me. I have something I really need to show you, and I think you'll like it. I love you with all my heart, and I can't wait to talk to you tomorrow. Blizz.

Leo stood in te door way from the bar to the stairs. "Damnitt..." he sid into the empty bar, wondering what he needed to do. He stood there, slouching in his black pajama's. His long black hair was covering his eyes.

[Adien Darke]

The door burst open and a huge man stepped into the bar, he was wearing a scarlet cloak that was trimmed with black leather and carried a cane, "Where is she?!"

[Ernil]

Harter sat up in the Sec-Room. "Suspicious..." He muttered to himself.

The door burst open and a huge man stepped into the bar, he was wearing a scarlet cloak that was trimmed with black leather and carried a cane, "Where is she?!"

Leo lookedat the old man. "Look who it is...Artremis Darke....Naiel isn't here...." Leo recongized the man from a picture Adien had in his room. Like Viola, Leo was a little clepto. Stealing things, not being able to control it. "What do you want?"

[Adien Darke]

Artremis looks at him, "And who the hell are you?!" he boomed.

[gemini archer mechanic]

The teen ager looked at the older man yelling at him. "Leonardo Connery Rivers....you need to sut the ******** up right now before I slit your throat....then you can't see your precious Naiel..." The boy threatened..like he always did... "Why are you looking for her anywys...I thought she left your sorry a**..."

[Adien Darke]

"Boy...don't tempt me...."
