Armand wasn't going to give in to the sun! No, he couldn't! But it was so hot. . . He closed his eyes, only to hear a bunch of screams and suddenly hands were reaching out, trying to touch him and grab his clothes.
"Oh my god! It's Jimmy Paige!" That was one scream.
Here's another: "I thought he was dead! But he's right here! What happened to his hair?"
Armand smirked. He liked the attention at random times. It had been nice when he had been just about to die and he needed a snack. But now it just served as a distaction from his life. He looked over at Icarus through the hands, faces and hair that nearly blinded him.
There were people 'attacking' him too. And he could hear one of the questions. "Why was he with you!?"
There would no doubtedly be reporters on sight within a few minutes. He could feel himseslf being pushed out into the sun, and resisted with wide eyes. He backed through the throng, stepping on a shoes once or twice. A guy cat-callled someone.
"Sorry ladies. The sun 'n' I dun' work well 'gether. But you see that *hic* guy over there. I's walkin' with him. He needs to get tuh work. . . " He slurred. "Le'm go."

(( eek their gonna die.))
Icarus stopped when people went over to Armand thinking he was Jimmy paige and then people surrounded him for reasons that the boy could not think of. He stood there confused but decided to just push through them the best he could. With a sigh he started to make his way through but not easily until Armand had apperently said something that made them move some what out of his way. "Thank you." Icarus mumbled silently, he hated attention and the gang of people had put him in a daze of confusion for awhile.
A few feet away he stopped to see if Armand was still surrounded by fan girls of the belated Jimmy Paige. He couldn't really tell because there were so many people. Icarus started walking again hoping Armand had gotten away.

(( lol seems like it doesn't it ))
Armand watched as those who wanted to get closer to him via Icarus, stepped away from the boy. But they incidentally stepped closer to him. He smiled crookedly, trying to walk backwards into a store. He loved the confusion. The noise. The faces in in his. It made him feel alive, alive like he never was. He watched inbetween small gaps as Icarus got away. He would drag him into a charade later, but not went he could barely run.
He heard the gratidutifed whisper, shaking his head then raising his hand and collapsing back on a wall. The crowd gasped.
"Dat was one. . .*hic* nice drink."
His head bobbed dazely. He grinned. It was all good.

((Yes, it does....))
Icarus turned a corner that lead to a street that was having a 'last thursday' like thing but none of the stuff on the street seemed very good. He'd have to get a pass thing so he could sell some of his paintings one of these days. His eyes scanned over all the pictures, clothing, and other stuff that was handmade.
The boy walked faster and started to limp, walking fast caused his leg some pain but he wanted to get away from the street before some one tried to sell him something. He didn't make it. Right at the end of the street he was stopped. "Hey, lad. Look at all these handmade items." The man on the corner started talking away and showing his items to the boy who wasn't paying any attention. "So what about it? Want to buy something?" Rolling his eyes, Icarus walked away relieved that he had stopped talking.

People chuckled and laughed, still in a fluster of surprise and glee. Some one wanted to know who Icarus was to him. To Jimmy Paige. Armand couldn't answer that. Jimmy Paige was a weird guy, but he didn't know his sexual preferance and he couldn't say he knew him. Armand shrugged, pretending to be trying to get to his feet. Hands got under his arms and hoisted him up. Someone leaned in and kissed his cheek.
"AHHHH! I kissed him!" She shrieked, and Armand winced, his hands shooting to his ears. He bent over and shook his head, hiding his face from view. The shriek had hurt his ears, but he was grinning.
Suddenly he straightened up and with a sobered nod, walked through the crowd. They parted, some rushing to buy cameras. Others pulling out their phones.
"Aw well. Can't have the media on me," He muttered, looking around for Icarus.
The boy wasn't there, so he rolled his eyes and continued on. He needed to drop the jacket off somewhere, or hide it, then mess up his hair. The chains were disposable, but the jacket wasn't. He started to run. A chase was always the main attraction in a movie. And his life was one big movie. . .

The blonde was heading for the center of the city when a girl wrapped her arm around his shoulder. "Hey, Nichol." He smiled, it had been awhile since he had seen one of his friends. "What have you been up to?"
"Oh, nothing...Okay so I've been argueing with the teachers." She smirked when Icarus rolled his eyes at her. "Miss. Aminald wishes you were still in her art class, you were the only person everyone in that class would listen to but I think that was just because you have such good paintings."
Icarus looked at her, there was a tone in her voice that she usualy had when she wanted to ask something. "What is it?" He asked as they walked through the street towards his work.
Nichol laughed. "Just like you, just wanting people to get to te point." The girl looked around. "Good no one from school is around...Miss Aminald wants you to come in with some of your paintings and help her teach the class how to paint a cemetary so bring the one you did last year of the cemetary." she paused. "monday, please."
The boy stared at her for awhile as he thought. "Maybe, I'll be there if I decide to do it." He stopped in front of a game store. "Well, I leave you here as I am going to get yelled at by my boss." They both laughed and then said good bye. Icarus entered the store.

The vampire had quickly out run the shrieks and screams of shock and delight, then darted into a alley. He turned the jacket inside out before slipping it back on, then threw the necklaces on the ground in plain sight of anyone who came down the alley. Some homeless dude might like them. . . If they ever came down here. He ruffled his hair into its usual waved style then leapt up onto the dumpster. The vampire looked around, sighing before ripping the armbands off his wrists and flinging them aside.
In minutes he was on the rooftops, looking carefully over the edge on to the streets for any signs of the media or his human. After a few minutes, he gave up and sniffed out the gralic scent of the boy's store. He sat on the roof opposite the shop, looking down on the street until his blonde haired blue eyed boy came into view.
With a girl clinging to him. A snarl leapt from Armand's throat at once and his fingers clentched down on the metal poles that held up the sign he was sitting on. He watched as they came closer, his eyes narrowing on the two before Icarus entered his work place and he hopped down from the roof, facing the girl.
"Who are you to him!" He asked in a low voice, his crimson eyes staring daggers at the girl. It probably gave her a fright to see a man jump down in front of her without falling from the impact.

Icarus had only been able to put a foot inside the store when he heard Armand ask his friend a question which confused him a bit. He turned and watched what was going on.
Nichol jumped when Armamd jumped down in front of her, she stood like she was ready to fight but her expression was a confused one. "Who am I to Icarus?" the girl started to laugh. "He's my friend, we've been friends since first grade." It was true but they had known each other since two months before school started again. "Why do want to know any way?" She asked and looked to see Icarus watching with an amused expression on his face. "Who is he?" Nichol pointed to Armand.
"Armand will you leave her alone, she only wanted to ask me something." He raised an eyebrow at the vampire and ignore Nichols question.

Armand folded his arms over his chest, staring ahrd at the girl until she asked him a question. As per normal, he didn't reply to it, but her eyes flickered to something behind him and he shifted his foot, turningto the side to stare at Icarus. This girl. She seemed like no threat, but you couldn't be to sure.
"I'm someone. Not any of your concern," He said to the girl while looking at Icarus. Then he paused, his ees scanning the boy's face. He looked amuzed, Armand thought. "Stay out of this Icarus. I wasn't talking to you." Just about you
He frowned, staring at the boy a while longer before looking back at Nichole. His expression wasn't light and smiling at all but he nodded at her. His instincts were telling him to keep suspicious peple away from his human. There was one thought going through his head although he didn't know for sure what was going on. : He's mine b***h. Back off.

Icarus shrugged and entered the store since he was wanted to get the lecture from his boss out of the way. "Hey, Sarah." He waved as he passed the cash register.
"Hey, Johns looking for you." She waved back and turned her attention back to the register. Icarus entered the 'employees only' door and climbed up a set of stairs.
----
"Bye." She mumbled as Icarus left then looked at her watch. "s**t...school starts soon." Nichole turned and left, she walked quickly and soon she was in a dead run.
----
The boy stood in front of a door and knocked. A voice behind the door told him to come in and Icarus listened. As he opened the door he apologized for not calling yesterday to tell him that he wasn't coming in.

Armand watched the girl leave with a long frown, knowing that Icarus had gone. His scent was fading. . . into the gralic store. He shuddered suddenly, his hair whisping about his head as he did so. That girl was no threat. . . Was she? He kept asking himself that question, wondering why he was so protective of his human. Yes, he wanted him alive, but why follow him. Why protect him from others so long as he was there when Armand wanted a drink.
He looked behind him, his eyes slowly turning troubled, and looked at the shelves inside, at the people there who weren't 'alergic' to garlic, at the freedom they had to eventually give up something. He smirked suddenly. Who said he wanted to give up Icarus? That was a different story all together!
Without much thought about who saw him, he climbed nimbly up the water pipe to the window sill on the second level then peered into the room. What did Icarus do all day. . . Was it boring? Did he paint more. Because then he would have to have a talk with him about the dangerous chemicals in those paints! Or drag him to a water park and force him to drown his paintings. That was equivant to throwing out his paints Armand hoped, cause it sounded fun.

Nova watched as his human stood up for him... And so well too! All the while Mitsuki was talking, he was glaring at the guys. They seemed to be getting the message the boy was giving them. A sweet smile spread on Nova's face as the guys stalked off, grumbling curses and such. He turned back to Mitsuki and hugged him tightly, feeling overly happy that he had been saved. "Oh thank you!!" he exclaimed and tightened his hold on the human. Just to make sure he was not suffocating him or anything, Nova let him go and rubbed his eyes to rid them of any stray tears that were trying to form. "You were so strong and brave, Mitsuki. Thank you again." He scratched the back of his head and looked at the clothes and snatched them up. "I should change!" he said, taking his clothes off right there, not caring who saw him. After all, he was a vampire and was used to getting bad looks from humans. Though, those guys were not like other humans. Perhaps they really were in denial of their sexuality, and Nova was the stronger one. The thought of that made him grin. Once he was done getting his clothes on, he looked back at Mitsuki and smiled. "Where do these go now?" he asked.

((Umm, how can you drown paintings?))
"Oh, hello Icarus." The man sitting in a leather chair smiled as he motioned for the boy to have a seat But Icarus just stood there. "You know the next time you don't call into work you'll be fired, this is the tenth..." His bosses voice faded into back ground noise as Icarus stared at the wall behind his boss. Thoughts danced around in his head, some of them about monday and others abput Armand and why he acted like he did to Nichole. He was snapped back into reality when the man in the chair started yelling. "Are you listening boy?!"
"Huh, oh, yeah...Sorry I won't do it again." Icarus rubbed the back of his head. Sure, I'll call next time to tell you I quiet. A smirk played on his face. "Can I get to work?" He asked as he slowly backed to the door, his hand was reaching behind him for the door knob.
"Sure."
Icarus turned around and opened the door, he praticly ran down the stairs but he was stopped by the pain in his leg. Stupid thing. The boy entered another room that had 'break room' painted on the door. It was where everyone went on break and when they started their shift. He grabbed a jacket/vest and went back to the front room. "Sarah, whats there for me to do?" He asked the girl at the front desk.

(( I have no clue. But imagine, say InuYasha, holding a painting underwater with an insane grin. Not too hard to do. I guess he'd be drowning the painting. >.o ))
Armand could barely see anything in the room. A door, a bunch of filing cabinets and the orner of a desk. And no matter where he stood or sat on the window sill he could not see anymore. With a disgruntled sigh he blinked. There seemed to be a lot of yelling taking place; the window plane was vibrating in the slightest. He frowned, his expression fading into a hopeful curiousity as he peered down at the street. The people walking by barely looked up, and when they did they didn't notice anything about a man sitting on a window ledge with a closed window behind him. Some went into the shop. Others continued hurriedly down the street. Armand sat there, watching the strangers until they all looked the same, blended together and blurry. He jumped down, nearly avoiding a baby in its pram, the mother buying something for a stall.
Armand looked down at teh baby, its soft grey eyes staring merrily up at him, then he sneered at it and pulled a ugly face. The poor darling burst into tears and wailed, alerting its mother of its discontentment and terror. But Armand was already moving on and chuckling. What easy things to scare. Babies. He sniffed, turning his head towards the prominent smell of a roasting something. He turned to it, walking over to the grill and ignoring the man as he looked at the fire beneath the metal slats. Finally, someone pushed him and he bumped into the grill. The heat burnt him, leaving a red raw shiny whelt on his forearm and his whole hand.
"Hey! You okay boy?" The grill man asked in a startled voice, looking a bit pissed off that Armand wasn't buying anything. "You want something."
The vampire shook his head, his eyes still on the fire, shiving his burnt and stinging hand into his pocket and declining the offered ice.

((Hmm, that would be funny to watch. A random person should walk in and rob the place biggrin I don't know why though.))
Sarah sneezed before answering Icarus's question. "Yes, could you please sort out the games by type then by year?" Well it was more of a question then an answer but at least he now had something to do. The boy smiled and started to take all the games off the rack for PlayStation. He would start sorting them by type after he took them all off since it was obviously a slow day.
The girl watched him like he was crazy as he took the last game off the rack. "Something wrong?" He asked but Sarah just shook her head smiling. Icarus had unusual ways of doing thins sometimes. The boy started to shift through the pile of games. Odd thing was, he was enjoying himself. "Is john wearing cologne? He knows you alergic to it," Icarus said mindlessly. He laughed at a though that crossed his mind. "Did his wife catch him cheating?"
"I think she did." Sarah laughed with him then sniffed. "Yes, he is and I'm about to dump a bucket of cold water on him." She looked at the door and stared at it. "How long has he beem cheating on his wife any way?"
