Ilroché, unable to overcome his temptation, turned to his other side and peered over at Alexis. He was going to say goodnight, but she had headphones in and most likely wouldn't hear him. He smiled curtly and closed his eyes. Perhaps he was more tired than he let on, because he fell into a contented sleep moments later.

Alexis noticed that Ilroche wasn't making any sound. She turned around and noticed that he was sleeping. She clicked off her iPod and observed Ilroche as he slept. Alexis had a sudden urge to walk over to the other bed and brush his hair out of his face. No one's looking anyway...he's asleep, right? She shook her head and got up from the bed and walked over. Alexis sat quietly on the edge of the bed, and shook her head furiously. What are you doing? she asked herself. This isn't anything like you at all! Nevertheless, she tucked a lock of hair behind his ear with her cold hands.

Ilroché sighed contentedly in his sleep when Alexis moved his hair from his face, revealing his scarred eye. He rolled onto his back, his hair strewn across his pillow messily.
((Oh shiz Dx! Why do I always forget that he's blind in one eye?!? *smacks self*))

Alexis stared at him as he rolled over, and then saw his scarred eye. She traced it gently with her cold hands, her skin prickling at the touch.

Ilroché smiled, lost in his dreams. He dreamt that a girl and himself were sitting side-by-side in the shade of a pine tree, a little too close for his normal personal liking. They were talking to each other, but he couldn't hear what they were saying. His dream self said something. It must've been significant because the girl looked up from the ground and looked at him with her amethyst eyes and he faced her, their eyes meeting. Wait, he thought, Amethyst? Is that Alexis? Confirming that, his dream self reached his hand and gently caressed Alexis's jawline. She smiled, whispering something to him. He smiled in return and rested her chin between his thumb and index finger, drawing her closer. He woke up as they kissed. He opened his eye to see Alexis standing over him, her hand touching the his scarred and blind eye. "Um. May I ask what you're doing?" Ilroché asked, taking her hand it from his face in a swift movement, but not releasing it. Awkward!! His mind screamed. Here he was waking up from a dream in which he and Alexis had shared a kiss and she was touching his face while he slept? He smacked himself mentally for letting his mind conjure up a dream like that, and him liking it! He looked up at her earnestly, awaiting an answer.

Alexis was startled. Oh, crap, did I wake him up? Nice going, Alexis, she thought, scolding herself. She blushed and stuttered, "Oh, um, er, nothing, I just noticed that um, you have a scarred eye." Way to sound like an idiot. Alexis was very aware of Ilroche's hand on her own ice cold ones.

There's Blood On My Hands Like The Blood in You...
Ilroché sat up in the hotel bed and pulled his knees close to his chest, still not releasing Alexis's hand but compelling her to sit down. He ran a hand through his hair in a quick attempt to fix his short-lived bed head. He was slightly confused at her explanation. "You saw that my eye was scarred..." he stated, tracing the back of her hand absentmindedly as he spoke, "...and felt compelled to touch it? I don't get it." He looked up at her, a coy smile present in his eyes.

Alexis flushed harder. "Uh, um, yeah, I don't get it either," she muttered as she sat down gingerly on the side of the bed. Alexis tried to change the conversation as she felt Ilroche's hand touch her own. "Uh, what happened? How did you get that scar?" She knew it was a personal question, but Alexis asked anyways, trying to get him sidetracked.

"That depends," Ilroché said, "on whether you want to know the truth or not." He immediately regret his choice of words. Why had he said that? He flushed, both at his word utterance and at his realization of Alexis's hand in his. He sighed, embarrassed, and let go of her hand.

Alexis felt Ilroché let go of her hand. She paled. "What were you hiding from me?" She curled her arm around his unconsciously and stared into his emerald eyes.

s**t...I can't not tell her. That will only make her more curious. I'll just be blunt about it. Only quelch what little curiosity she has and NOT create more... Ilroché thought, noticing her bright amethyst eyes boring into his own. "Well. I'm not hiding anything, really. Just a few unnecessary details." He mentally rolled his eyes as he continued, in a quiet voice. "If you must know... I gave this scar to myself."

Alexis was silent. "So you cut yourself?" She wasn't at all surprised. Her cold arm was pressed against his.

Ilroché sighed with relief. "Pretty much. I can't see through this eye anymore, though." He knew there was a lot more to it than that, but Alexis didn't have to know it. He smiled, only then realizing how close she was sitting to him. He scooted away from her a little so her arm wasn't touching his. There's a big difference between liking someone and actually acting on those feelings... he thought to himself, thinking of his dream.

((I don't know what to say...)) Alexis didn't want to pry, but she knew that he was not telling her something. She was silent and just kept on looking into his eyes. Alexis was barely aware when Ilroche moved over, but she still felt a little bad. Wait, why am I feeling sorry for myself? There is nothing to be sorry for!

Ilroché felt a little awkward, sitting too a girl he'd dreamt about kissing. Perhaps love isn't such a bad thing. His mind prompted him. After all, you are close enough to kiss her. This was true, but he'd never had any desire to kiss anyone, not until now at least. He bit his lip. She'd probably kill me if I tried anything, he thought, trying to reason with his desire. He broke eye contact and looked down at his hands, flushing red and twining his fingers through each other. (this is my last post for today. Just FYI)
