She giggled a bit and looked up to Reeve with a small smile. "Well .. yes .. if that is alright with you also, of course." she said smiling a bit more brightly. Slowly she released him from her hold, bobbing her head. Tilting her head, she wondered what he would want to do. There was but one way to find out. "What would you like to do here?"

"Me?" Reeve asked as he loosened his grip, but did not fully let her go. "I live here. I can go out and look at the stars, or go play at the beach whenever I want to. I would be fine with anything you wanted to do, and you want to stay here... So here we will stay." Smiling warmly he let her go completely. "Would you like to go listen to some more music?"

Her eyes positively lit up with the suggestion of more music. Nodding her head excitedly, she replied. "Yes please, that would be wonderful!" she said with a giggle, gently latching on to his arm, intending to walk along side of him back to the living room.

With a slight chuckle Reeve began to walk to the living room, which was not far off at all. Once there he motioned for her to sit down as he went to the CD player. "Anything specific you would like to listen to?" He asked, as he looked over the wall of CDs.

"What is your favorite .. compact disc?" she asked looking at him with a bit of confusion, unsure if she remembered correctly. Still she moved on with her thoughts. "I would like to hear something that you like so that I may know. I have heard you play several melodies yet what one plays or sing may differ greatly from what they may choose to listen to."

Turning to her, Reeve tilted his head a bit. "My favorite?" he asked her, looking back at all of the Cds for a moment. "I have many favorites... Mozart, Beethoven... Vast, Voltaire, Silent Echoes... The Apex Twins..." He chuckled lightly. "That is just a few of them, I have many more."

With a bright smile, she nodded to the first two, having recognized them. As he went on, her smile fell but her eyes remained curious as her eyebrows raised. "Silent Echoes? That is a contradiction, silence cannot make an echo. How is that music? Or that is the name of the .. what is it, band? And if so, does that not confuse anyone who may listen?" she asked, finding herself filling with questions.

Reeve laughed somewhat and walked over to her, taking a seat. "Silent Echoes is indeed a band name... And it really does not confuse many people. The names of the band do not really matter, what matters is the music. I believe that many people give their bands weird names so that they are remembered better." He said, trying to expain it to her as best he could. In truth, he had always wondered about such things himself... and this is what he thought.

When he explained, she smiled brightly and bobbed her head again. "Thank you for explaining. It is confusing but in an intentional way .. I believe I understand." she said with a smile. She too seated herself when he did, being sure to give him his space despite wanting to hold him in her arms still. She smiled serenely. "You certainly appreciate variety, it seems."

"Variety is the spice of life." Reeve said with a slight chuckle as he stood up. For a moment he looked at the Cds, trying to decide which one to pick, when he started coughing. At first the coughs were quiet and normal, but soon they became louder. He put his hand over his mouth to not be rude and walked out of the room for a moment. The coughing grew painful very quickly, but soon started to calm. Leaning against the wall, he pulled his hand away from his mouth and looked at it; seeing blood. Quickly he balled up his fist and put his hand into his pocket so that Ziven would not see.

She smiled a bit, watching him move away from her. When he started coughing, she looked to him with concern, and when it continued more, she stood, watching him walk out of the room. "Are you alright?" she asked, following after him some but not completely, not wanting to impose upon him since he seemed to want privacy. Standing there, she subconsciously started wringing her hands together some, concerned for him but not allowing herself to smother him with concern as she realized that males tended not to like that.

Reeve wipped his mouth with his hand to make sure there was no blood vivible before turning to her with a large smile on is face. "I'm just fine. Hangign around a volcano will give you a cough sometimes." He chuckled lightly. The truth was his chest felt like it was on fire... and he didn't know why.

When he returned, smiling broadly as he was trying to reassure her, she could tell he was not speaking the truth. He himself had said to her that when he would smile big like that, he was covering something up. Lowering her head slightly, she looked down and off to the side. "That is the truth as you would like for me to believe it." she said simply. "You do not wish for me to worry about your health? Or perhaps you do not trust me to help you? Or .. perhaps you simply do not want my help .." she pondered aloud, not quite realizing she had said this all aloud. Blue eyes slowly returned to his face, wondering what was really on his mind.

His head started to throb and ears began to ring. He closed his eyes for a moment and inhaled deeply. Once he opened his eyes again something about them had changed. One was still it's normal ice blue color, but the other had turned silver with a red pupil. He tilted his head slightly and spoke, his voice darker that normal. "Why is it that one of your first assumptions is that I don't trust you?" He coughed again for a moment, this time no blood came. "Are you so untrusting of me that you think I don't trust you?" For some reason his words were harsh; something was obviously wrong.

"Reeve .." she called out, her concern increasing as she noticed his appearance had changed. Taking a few steps closer to him, she could see his eyes more clearly. When he spoke, his words stung. She shook her head. "Lack of trust in me or in my abilities is the most logical reason for you to hide the severity of your condition from me. If there is something else, my apologies for making an incorrect assumption, I will not do so again." she said softly, again lowering her head but this time in apology for having upset him. After a short moment, she looked to him again, her eyes still filled with concern for him. "Please Reeve .. Are you unwell? I would like to help you find your health again if that is the case."
