Welcome to Gaia! ::

Chance released a small smile. He tasted the name on his tongue and found himself quite pleased at how easily the name left his tongue. "Nice to meet you El," he said, already using the shortened version of the male's name. His smile grew ten-fold, a grin now adorning his lips. "My name is Chance," he said introducing himself and pointing to himself childishly, "sorry no way to shorten it," he said with an awkward chuckle. The male shifted on his chair as he tried to find a way to keep the silence from returning. What could he ask or say that would be...normal? Chance had a lot of things he wanted to ask the other, but the little manners he had kept him from asking. It felt like he would be intruding into territory he was not welcomed in.

"So, how do you feel," he asked. Inside the male was scolding himself, what kind of question was that? The male was obviously in the hospital and probably in pain. Chance almost nibbled on his lip, but he stopped himself. He wasn't going to resort to that nasty habit of his. Besides, maybe he was just over-thinking things.

Chance could not discern the reason as to why he flushed, it could be either the smile that was sent his way or the awkwardness he felt. When a person is faced with a gorgeous smile they either smile back or flush, it sort of depends on the confident factor. Chance had some confidence in him, it was not overbearing like some people had, but it was there, enough not get beaten down. Though he could remember the days when he did have the overbearing confidence, it got him into some sticky situations. The red-head male fiddled with his thumbs, but people did tend to flush when in awkward or uncomfortable environments, and Chance certainly felt a bit awkward. The male could not tell, and right now he didn't feel like finding out.

When the other spoke it caught Chance's attention immediately. He noted that the small light he saw playing in the sky-blue orbs was gone, it had fizzled and someone else had replaced it, something sad and gloomy. When El finished speaking it was safe to say that Chance was bit shaken at the words. He could hear the warning to those words, they stroke of chord of fear in him.

His mind instantly reeled him back to just leaving the beautiful man and saving himself instead. His thoughts of self-preservation instantly flooded him and almost had Chance rising from his seat, but the echo of his heart steeled him to remain seated. His heart pumped him with an old feeling of rebelliousness and defiance. The male looked at Elliyon and shook his head.

"I don't think I can do that," Chance replied.

(I didn't see anything wrong with it o.o]

Chance had a heavy feeling settling on his shoulders; he really had no idea what he was getting himself into. He had to be honest and admit that, but the thought of leaving this man behind and thinking about him no more had him a nervous and cautious. There was something in his gut telling him not to do that, just don't. Did that make Chance an gut man? No not exactly, but there were times where listening to your body just happened to be one of the best choices of your life. Besides, when one was rewarded with such a brilliant smile, it was hard to think of what could possibly come out of this decision.

Chance had a feeling that he would do anything to see that smile, it was just breath-taking in his eyes. The male wondered if he would be the only one to think that? If he was getting attached to this man, Chance was not too sure, he wasn't really sure about anything, not even in his own life. Everything in his life was a bit on the unsure side, nothing was set in stone, not even where he wanted to go in life. All Chance knew was that eventually life would place him somewhere, somewhere where he needed or was meant to be. Making his own way and all those powerful quotes, they didn't ring a chord in him, far from it to be honest. Chance would rather just follow the path then make one for himself. It wasn't always like that, but his past had molded him to think this way.

Chance watched the tears streak down the blond man's face. He didn't reach to wipe them away, what for? From what he saw they were happy tears, so there was no reason to. He wanted to let them run their trail of sweet happiness down the male's face. Chance didn't respond to El as he thanked him, because he wasn't sure if the male should be thanking him just yet.

I mean they had a looong way to go.

((It is fine, take your time. C: I'm patient when it comes to posting xD))

The young beautiful free angel reached an elegant hand to wipe the tears from his cheeks, the setting sun casting rays of endearments across his pale face, lighting his hair on fire. The silver blond strands glimmered slightly. And even then the world was awed by his fae-like wonder. Sighing, El looked back up at the other. And then back at his hands, the crystalline eyes tracing the various bandages.

So much...so much had happened in so little time. Was anyone ever deserving this? He wasn't sure and yet, still, he felt responsible. He wondered for a brief moment...if, despite this now, if he should just go back. They would beat him and treat him like a dog. Then raise him to a pedestal of property. And the underground would own him once more.

No.

He looked back up at Chance. He wouldn't go back, he couldn't. Never. Ever. This man has risked his life for him and he did so now even just being near. So for him, he would stay. Without Chance, he would be back to square one. Opening his mouth to speak, he suddenly covered it as he coughed and the thralls of pain gripped him. Any remaining pain killers had worn off and his nervous system, its erratic messages and sporadic tunes, it all had finally caught up. He shut his eyes hard against it, barely able to breathe. His broken right arm remained his side, the hand gripped the sheets. The other covered his mouth, as though it could aid in holding back the agony. Knees to chest and back utterly tightened, it was clear the El was in extreme pain beyond anything.

((Hey, I'm really sorry, I'll get you something to make up for it but I need to take a hiatus from role playing. Specifically, romance role plays. I want to write but I need to try something new and different. I've been role playing yaoi for like six years at least haha so maybe it's good I take a break. I hope we can come back to this later. ^^ I am sorry *huggles* PRESENTS! Are on their way! ♥ ))
