[Note: This takes place on January 4th]
He was sleeping, not so peacefully. His night was eventful, at least for him. He'd done everything in the book, or at least everything he had, and, instead of suffering through some psychedelic high, he'd wordlessly walked home after cracking up in the middle of the forest for about six minutes, and went to bed. He hadn't been out of bed much, save for some breakfast which he didn't eat, he hadn't said anything except mumbles, hadn't bothered to even brush his hair out of his face, and pretty much looked like a zombie, walked like a zombie, and talked like one.
While sleeping, he suffered through terrible nightmares, trying to force himself to wake up, but failing.
He tossed and turned now, mumbling here and there. This, by far, was the strangest dream he'd had all day. He was running through field of yellow grass, though it wasn't the usual peaceful field one would see; the grass, was not yellow, but an off yellow, with grey-brown spots of infection, and the sky was a dark grey, and everything was grey, his skin was grey but his hair was the usual pitch black. He was being chased, naturally, by black, arm like strands, some had hands on them, and would grab at his hair or shoulders. Though he was running somewhat fast, he tripped, falling in the mud below, and the hands descended upon him. They pulled him up, forcing him to stand. They pushed him along, walking him to a giant pine tree, with no branches or needles. They shoved him against it, and, wrapped themselves around him and the tree, gagging him and creating him immobile, and then, everything went black, a sickening little girl's giggle echoing throughout his mind.
He jumped, and his eyes shot open, they were a pale blue and blank, with no pupil, and he smirked, filled with achievement and malcontent. He yawned, stood up, and combed his hair in front of his eyes, and walked down stairs, "Calum..." He muttered, his tone an evil one.

Calum relaxed in a chair the music room/library, a book grasped in his hand and his legs stretched out. His mind was so engrossed in the book that he didn't hear anyone say his name.

He walked almost silently, the malevolent smirk stationed perfectly on his face. He slinked into the room, his fingers trailing over things. If you looked close, and really paid attention, his skin looked paler. He looked almost like...a corpse. "Calum...good evening."

Calum's ears perked when it finally clicked in his head that someone was talking to him. He frowned, not looking up from his book. To him, Syd just didn't sound right... "Good evening Syd."

"Good evening." He held out a hand to Calum, "I want to go on a walk. Will you come with me?" He stood next to the piano, perfectly still.

Calum looked up at Syd, his frown growing as he took in the other males paler then normal skin. "You look unwell my dear, I'm not so sure if you should be out walking in this weather..."

He frowned, his hand falling to his side. "But I wish to talk to you." He said, "It's pretty out...it won't take long."

Calum continued to frown as he stared up at Syd from his seat. In his head, the desire to give Syd what he wanted warred with concern. As long as it's short... Concern was shoved onto the back burner, he nodded and marked his page before standing. "Alright, but only if you'll get some rest when we get back."

He smiled, looking pleased, "Come, then." He said, before turning and walking out the front door to wait for Calum.

Calum stared after Syd, unable to shake the feeling that something was...off. Inside, his heightened instincts practically screamed for him to not go. But with a shake of his head, he shoved them away and put his book down. His hands twitched as he followed after Syd.
(Next full moon is on Jan. 11th, so want to say this takes place on Jan. 4th? =3)

His tail swished, almost menacingly as Calum came out. Instead of offering up his hand to Calum, he shoved it in his pocket, and silently walked down the porch steps and started walking through the empty field.

The first thing Calum though was that he had done something wrong. His hands twitched, feeling colder and wishing to grasp Syd's. He sighed and shoved his hands into his pocket before stepping out onto the field that had once been filled with flowers.

He sighed, "I'll miss the flowers..." He muttered to himself, walking a bit ahead of Calum. He looked back to Calum, "I'm glad you decided to come."

"Why wouldn't I?" asked Calum, looking puzzled. He shivered, having forgot to put on his jacket.

He shook his head, "You never know..." He looked back over to Calum, his hair blowing out of his eyes for a few seconds, revealing their paleness. "You're cold." He said, as his hair fell back. He held out his hand for him.
