Leelan liked the way he helped her sit down. He was an actual gentlemen, and they are hard to come up by. Her eyes gazed up to his and she notice him gazeing into her eyes again. Leelan giggled a bit. "I see you really do like my eyes." She blinked and when opened they were the same violet as Prometheus. "Yes it is beautiful out tonight. I love being by the water." Leelan could hear Wolf's voice and she turned to head to see if she could see him, but she couldn't and put her attention back on Prometheus and smiled.

Prometheus returned the smile. His politeness and being gentleman-like came from whatever century he was born in. It was too late to tell what century, especially if you didn't count. "I just love... eyes, I guess. Almost no matter who I'm with, I end up looking into their eyes and into the dep abyss of their soul." He smiled again. Prometheus thought back to the person he remembered that from. William Shakes-something. He didn't remember everything from his past. He returned his focus and gaze out towards the lake, taking in a deep breath.

Leelan closed her eyes slightly and when she opened them they were a soft blue. She titled her head up to the sky and looked at the stars. Somewhere her father was looking over her. Leelan's head came back down and looked across the water. "The water is calm tonight perfect for skipping stones, dont' you say?" She looked back at Prometheus.

Wolf nodded and smiled at Mephlius and Amnity when they left, and he stared out at the lake once again. Normally he would find a tree or retreat to the junkyard to sleep, but Wolf couldn't sleep. He sighed and took out his guitar. Wolf played Valentine's Day by Linkin Park, his eyes dark as his head was hung, staring at his fingers as they played the verses. Wolf sang the lyrics.
My insides all turn to ash, so slow
And blew away as I collapsed, so cold
A black wind took them away, from sight
And held the darkness over day, that night
And the clouds above move closer
Looking so disatisfied
But the heartless wind kept blowing, blowing
I used to be my own protection, but not now
Cause my path has lost direction, somehow
A black wind took you away, from sight
And held the darkness over day, that night
And the clouds above move closer
Looking so disatisfied
And the ground below grew colder
As they put you down inside
But the heartless wind kept blowing, blowing
So now you're gone
And I was wrong
I never knew what it was like
To be alone
On a Valentine's Day, On a Valentine's Day
On a Valentine's Day, On a Valentine's Day
On a Valentine's Day, On a Valentine's Day
On a Valentine's Day, On a Valentine's Day
(I used to be my own protection but not now)
On a Valentine's Day, On a Valentine's Day
(Cuz my mind has lost direction somehow)
On a Valentine's Day, On a Valentine's Day
(I used to be my own protection but not now)
On a Valentine's Day, On a Valentine's Day
(Cuz my mind has lost direction somehow)
Wolf both the lyrics in parenthesis, the ()'s, and the lyrics not in them at the same time, with the cooperation of Reaper. Reality showed him only singing the 'On a Valentine's Day' part, and his shadow showed him singing the other part. However, one could only tell if they looked hard. Or listened a little bit. Unbeknownst to him, Wolf had played through the night. When the last note ended, it became after midnight. Valentine's Day had ended with his song. As Wolf played the last dragging note, he slowly looked up to see if anyone was watching him.

Prometheus followed her gaze wherever it went. The stars were out very beautiful as well, set out just right. In the distance, he heard Wolf playing a song. He hadn't heard that one before. The Lycan then followed Leelan's gaze out across the water, no ripples spreading across it. "It is a good time for that..." He replied, picking up a pebble and tossing it. One, two, three, plop. Prometheus kept his eyes out on the water.

Veroen entered Central Park with Eden's hand in his. He walked quietly, until they both got to an area that was quiet, and no one was around. He slowly sat down on a bunch, and rested his arms on his knees, hunched forward a bit. He motioned with one hand for her to have a seat next to him, with a calm, loving expression.

Veroen lacing his fingers with hers and attempting to master a convincing smile managed to make her a little less edgy but she was still anxious and wanting to figure out what had crossed his mind and had gotten such a distracted reaction out of him. After all, it wasn't like assassins to be out of it. They were always aware, had to be, it was another part of their extremely strict training and she was still visibly worried about him though she had decided to humour him and walk to the park in order to talk about it. Being in the park to talk about it couldn't possibly hurt could it? She could survive the walk there and had since she could now see the vast expanse that made up the park.
As they entered the park Veroen's focus clearly shifted to finding a secluded place in the park in order for them to properly discuss whatever it was that was troubling and or distracting him. He found a spot without too much trouble and raced over to the bench ahead of her to clear a spot for her and warmly invited her to take a seat beside him. She obliged and sat beside him, her own hands resting in her lap as her expectant hazel eyes shifted to look at Veroen's face quizically. "So what's up?"

Veroen smiled at her softly, not really knowing how to bring it up. He turned back forward, and looked down slightly. He sighed again.
"So is this baby going to kill you...?" he asked suddenly, deciding just to be straightforward.

Though it was completely beyond her control and it was fixable provided she could find some lycan to bite her in order to keep her alive, Eden's head dropped at the question and it was her turn to look at the ground as if it were somehow exponentially interesting. She couldn't meet his gaze and at the same time tell him that this kid was going to kill her if she didn't get someone to help her before she came to term. "Uh ... If I'm human ... yeah, it'll kill me ... Abortion would be an option for most people but I'm completely against it so the only alternative is going lycan ... I don't know how well that would fly with you, though but I can't see any other options that result in both this kid and me living through this virtual nightmare."
Her voice seemed ready to give at any moment and she was starting to tremble ever so slightly at the unfair thoughts and possible glimpses of the future she was imagining. She really wasn't looking forward to it and she was scared shitless and now she had to stress over possibly losing Veroen over this because he wasn't the father and had no reason to stay with her. She was a human right now and humans weren't his coven's sworn enemy since the dawn of time but lycans ... those were a different story and right now she had one in her stomach and her only option for survival of both her and her child was for her to become one herself.

Veroen kept the same calm expression as she said this, succeeding in not reflecting his inner feelings. If he had a heart that was still beating, it would have excellerated at least 5 times the normal rate. He hated it. The very idea of it. Either she dies, or she bcomes a Lycan. The very thought of it tortured his mind. He used everybit of what he had learned from being an assassin to successfully prevent these thoughts from showing on his smooth, calm face.
'DAMNIT! ********> he silently shouted in thought to himself, with the same calm expression on his face. He thought about it carefully, picturing a mutt biting into her flesh, and changing her into one of them. The part about her becoming a Lycan wasn't so bad, it was just the thought of someone ELSE doing it, and the changing part of it, that bothered him. Also, he questioned if she would still feel the same toward him, if she were to become a Lycan. She would be a Lycan, sworn enemy of Vampires, with a Lycan kid that belonged to Ceon, who for all Veroen knew, hated him. Veroen's insides would have began to twist if he were still human. This worried him very much, and his mind was wracked with these thoughts. So many thoughts and images proccessed through his head, each one worse than the one before.
He was afraid he would lose her.
He silently said nothing, and just looked at her with a calm face, and a hint of smile, outdoing himself by hiding his thoughts from showing on his face.
"I see..." He said finally, now looking forward, with the same expression still.

Unlike Veroen, Meredith was not specially trained to bottle her emotions though she'd learnt how to be a killer when the going got tough enough to call for her to be. However, she was also pretty honest and being honest also meant she was a terrible liar and that she couldn't really lie to someone she cared about worth a damn. She didn't even bother to hide the fact that she was frightened though she forced herself to not tremble as violently as her body would have allowed her to if she wasn't keeping an eye on herself for that particular purpose.
Her eyes were still looking towards the ground when he responded to the information she'd given him and seeing as his sentence was extremely short and apathetic-sounding she really wasn't certain what to make of his thoughts. He was doing so well at hiding his emotions that she had no idea what was running through his head and his monotonous voice did nothing to comfort her during a time such as this because his response could have been taken a number of ways.
"I ... I-uh, I understand if you don't want to have anything to do with me. I realize that the only option I have is to become a lycan and ... well, you're a vampire and you hunt them so yeah. Even if I become a lycan, though, I'm not joining their pack, I'm going to stay with the hunters even though they've pretty much abandoned us and it's every hunter for themself. But yeah, not matter what, no matter what you decide is the best course of action for you, I love you. I always will and where you might have the strength and discipline to shoot me down if it was asked of you, I don't. If it ever comes down to a fight between us ... I'd never be able to go through with that ..."
Her hazel eyes looked up at him for a moment but soon looked away, she didn't have the nerve to be able to look him in the eye now. It was clear that she was highly vulnerable at this point in time and that she had been speaking from her heart when she'd told Veroen about the possibility of them having to face off against the other. She'd been serious, she'd never be able to hurt him. She hadn't even been able to hurt him when he'd started sucking her dry in the car so there was no chance she'd be able to hurt him otherwise unless he was trying to kill her child but even then she wasn't so certain she'd be able to bring herself to kill him.
"Sorry ... I'm babbling."

Veroen's mind was quiet once she finished her statement, as well as his mouth. He was stunned, actually. Surprised a bit, too. He didn't think she would feel that strongly about him. He was still sure that he loved her much more than she loved him, but what she said really showed how she felt.
Veroen was quiet for a moment, and didn't think about anything, excpet re-run her words in his head. He was completely still, with the same expression on his face. He then snapped out of his trance, and his face changed into one of surprise and shock for a half second, before he regained control of what was showing on his face. He slowly looked forward, and said nothing. He honestly didn't know what to say. He tried to process his thoughts, and come up with a statement that correctly voiced his thoughts, but it took a while to do so.

Edith wasn't certain whether or not Veroen's silence was a positive indication or a negative indication of his thoughts and how he'd processed what she'd just said and not knowing began to eat at her as he attempted to knit together a response. She began panicking now, worried that she'd said something wrong or that something had come out one way when it should have another. Maybe he thought she was crazy and that she wasn't worth his time and that he should probably just up and leave before her baby was anywhere near due. After all, that's probably what anyone else would do but she had a small glimmer of hope that deep down he would be able to accept her no matter what she was.
Her heart began excellerating as her stress and negativity began to build up, her barrier was slowly forming in case it would need to deflect some hurtful decisions he'd made in regards to her. Everything was happening so fast that it was possible that this was beginning to be to much for him and he was finding out that she was more of a chore than he wanted but she hoped that he would come through for her again. She'd meant every word she'd pitched to him and it wasn't in some desperate attempt to keep him, they were genuine words from the heart and she would understand if this was too much for him to accept.

Veroen silently kept his gaze forward. He finally felt a response to what she had said. In all honesty, he was extremely relieved she had said this, and it exterminated almost every worry he had going through his mind. His face instantly lit up, and he felt his feelings for her growing, as impossible as it was.
he quickly turned toward her with a mixture of shock and love written all over his face. He then did not hesitate to grab her chin and lift it up quickly, so he could kiss her, which was all that he wanted to do right now. He pressed his lips against hers, not as gently this time, with a bit of firmness about it, showing his desire for her. He grasped the side of her face with his right hand, and kissed her with the most passion he had showed towards her since they had met.

Eden had been looking at the ground, staring at it as if the ground was going to save her from the silence that was torturing her mercilessly at the moment and that was when Veroen's hand grabbed her chin though not nearly as gently as he had before. At first she was uncertain of his intent but when her hazel eyes drew up to his countenance his expression melted her heart and she instantly became his dummie with which he probably could have done anything she was so relieved. Of course, there were physical limits to what he could do with her since she was a life-size rag doll to him and he probably could snap her bones like twigs but unilke said rag doll she would feel and protest to the pain more likely than not.
The raw hunger and emotion that his expression assaulted her with only caused her heart to race faster in anticipation of his kiss. When he cupped the side of her face and kissed her he stole her heart from her yet again and she was breathless yet kissing him with desire that matched his. Her hands had found their way to his jawline and his hair so while one hand desperately stroked his jaw the other ran through his hair blindly and freely, there was a wild and untamed desire in the way she touched and kissed him and he was definitely causing her human horomones to begin stirring as she became ever more lost in their fit of passion combined with relief and love.
