➥ SOJIN'S HOUSE

@Sojin [wanna move it to the wall or continue here?]

@Leo Sojin's gaze traveled all around the other, smiling to herself feeling a sense of safety being around Leo once again. The heavy feeling she was living with for the longest time he was gone melted away once again. She never forgot what he did but every time she would see him it was as if it didn't matter anymore. All that was important was that he was around and he was alive. She loved him too much to watch him go again.

"Mm." Sojin nods, looking up at him as he wrapped his arm around her waist. "Let's go."

@Sojin He watched her as she made her way to the bathroom back and forth his eye never leaving her even though the wall and door came in between as his mind wondering about what happened to her right now. Being an antisocial like himself, Leo almost had no friend to ask about Sojin's condition and he started to regret but then again when he opened up to someone he would feel really uncomfortable and awkward. He sighed, if her condition was caused by his disappearance he would really kill himself although he knew she wouldn't let him to do so. Hearing the bathroom's door creak, Leo turned his head and a smile immediately appear on his face at how graceful she looked like despite the constant pain she felt. He nodded before making his way to the sink to quickly freshen up he couldn't just go without looking presentable in front of the elders as that one granny would scold him and he didn't want her to do that in front of Sojin. Leo turned to her once he's done saying "Ready to go?" while wrapping an arm around her slim waist.

@Leo Sojin whirled around to wrap her arms around him after wiping off her lips once again. "Oh, I don't know what I'm feeling..." She sighed, "I-I'll go get ready and then we can leave." Pulling away slowly, she looked up at him before walking out to grab her clothes. Sojin entered the bathroom once again and changed quickly.

"I'll be out in a minute." She said before exiting the bathroom in her purple sundress.

[it's alright~ ^^]

@Sojin He blinked as she suddenly move to the bathroom and curiously he went to follow her. Leo became more worried about her condition and he determined to take her to the elders as soon as she ready. Leo walked behind her and rubbed her back "You okay?"

[sorry for so short u.u sleepy u.u]

@Leo She blinked rapidly when he had suddenly awoken. Sojin felt his arms wrap tightly around her as she chuckled slightly, "Good morning, Leo." Sojin missed his scent, the way he spoke and that sleepy look he had whenever he woke up beside her. It feels just like the way it did before except she couldn't shake off that odd feeling in the pit of her stomach. It wasn't clear to her if something was wrong or she was just thinking things.

There was that sick feeling again. "Excuse me..." She mumbled before quickly darting for the bathroom.

@Sojin Leo had always been a light sleeper so when he felt a shuffling and movement from his side he immediately awake but still keeping his eyes shut trying to see what she'd do to him and when he felt her soft lips upon his forehead Leo chuckled "Stealing a kiss from someone isn't good thing to do." He said while still keeping his eyes closed but his hands wrapped tighter around her "Good morning Sojin."

@Leo Her eyes fluttered open and there he was lying beside her like where she had wanted him to be. A warm smile tugged on her lips as she brought her hand to his face, grazing her fingertips against his cheeks as she watched him sleep. A yawn escaped her as she snuggled against him. She was honestly really glad that he didn't leave. It would be devastating if everything that happened the night before was all a dream. He was back. For good, she hoped.

"I have always loved you..." She whispered, pressing a kiss to his forehead. "and I always will."

@Sojin "Stay..."

Her last word before falling into sleep which he hope was pleasant enough for her to forget about her pain and her unknown condition issue. Leo gently caressing her cheeks as he watched her asleep with a smile. This woman is too important for him to be just abandoned like that, for him to just leave her alone again and for all. Slowly he moved to the empty space beside her and wrapping his arm around her shoulder "I only hurt you, why are you still waiting for me?" He whisper fall into deaf ears as all he get from her was her soft breathing which made him let out a ow chuckle as he also feel sleepy for some reason. After settled to better position Leo soon followed her to the dreamland.

@Leo She watched him closely when his eyes grew wide. A weak smile spread on her pale face at the other's answer. With a nod, her hand crept towards his and placed it on top of the other's. The dull cramps had gradually stopped once again. She didn't think too much of it anymore. Sojin was just glad he was back. She really didn't care if she was going to get told off by anyone she announces it to. Leo was with her and that was all that mattered. With a yawn, she took another look at the other's perfect face and drifted off to sleep.

"Stay...

@Sojin He was expecting something like fresh blood, or something like a pain killer but she stunned him again for the third time today. Leo braced himself when she turned away probably will ask him to stay away from her but how surprised he was when she asked the otherwise. His eyes went wide and it took him few moment before replying to her as he nodded "I will stay as long as you want me to Sojin. I'll leave when you told me to leave." He said, smiling softly at her "Lets wait until tomorrow before we go to the elder to ask what's wrong with your body."

@Leo "Anything you want?"

The question hit her like a dump truck. Of course she wanted him to stay, she wanted him to be there for her like he used to... but what if he leaves again? What would happen to her? She couldn't bear to watch the days fly by without him around again. It would surely drive her back into the darkness.

"Look, I'm sorry for asking you to leave. I..." She turned away, trying to hide the streaks of tears running down the side of her face. "I want you to stay..." Exhaling, the waves of dull cramps came rushing back once again causing her to curl up a little.

"Ah..." Her eyes turned to him, "P-Please stay."

@Sojin "I've never felt that in my life."

Okay, this is new. He never encounter something like this before and to be honest he's at lost of what to do so he just took a seat on the edge of her bed trying to be there for her so even if its just a little he could ease her pain. "Anything you want?" Leo asked, his tone soften as he didn't want to scare her if he went all icy like before. His hand made its way to her arm and rubbed it gently "Just tell me."

@Leo Everything was suddenly too overwhelming that she didn't want to think anymore. Her knees grew weak when she felt Leo's arms envelope her into his warmth and she just let him carry her into the bedroom. The cramps subsided just a bit when she had finally settled on the bed.

'Don't go...' She thought as she watched him leave the room, only to be relieved when he came back with a glass of water. Sojin had already conditioned herself to thinking that every time he would disappear, he might not come back. She took the glass into her hands and sipped a little with a nod.

"I've never felt that in my life." She mumbled, looking down at the glass with a blank expression.

@Sojin He frowned, from the way she looked it seemed like he honestly have no idea why she's like this not because she wanted to hide anything from him and this conclusion draws another question for him as he knew Sojin never threw up even when she was dead drunk but then again as vampire chances of them being sick almost next to none. Leo wrapped his arm around her shoulder and the other hand scooped her legs up carrying her in his arms as he made his way back to her bedroom "Rest." He simply said before making his way to the kitchen to get a glass of water and handed it back to her. Leo took in the state she was in, although much better than before he still didn't feel satisfy until he knew what exactly happened to her. "Is this the first time?"

@Leo She wiped her lips with the back of her hand and stared down at the stainless sink, wondering what this weird feeling was. Sojin was never used to throwing up even when she was intoxicated. She would get drunk until she passes out, yes... but never anything like this. She was too busy trying to figure things out that she didn't notice Leo come back once again. The foreign touch from his cold hand made her jump a little, she turned to see him standing there.

She was about to say something when her stomach started to cramp a little. Wincing, she placed a palm over it and leaned over slightly.

"I-I... don't know." Sojin shook her head. What was happening? From the blank mind she had earlier, her head was now spinning with questions. The uncomfortable dull cramps came in waves and all she could do was stand there and wonder.

"I don't know." She repeated, whispering this time.

@Sojin Should he just walked back in now or wait for another day before breaking things up with her? Leo asked himself that questions again and again. He didn't know which one is the good idea but then again the longer he wait the more he need to gather up his confident to say that he able to life without her which is a complete BS for him. He knew the moment he laid his eyes on her she woud be the one but never he thought that this would be the outcome that followed his decision to took her inside his life more than just in master relationship.

He decided to just walked back in and confronted her when the unlikely smell made its way to his nose. Worry immediately washed over his all being as he rushed to the kitchen and saw her by the sink. Now he's here Leo didn't know what to do again whether he should just called out for her or wait until she realized he was there. 'To hell with that.' He thought as he made his way beside her and placed his hand on her shoulder "You okay?"

@Leo Her cries had stopped after a while. She couldn't do it anymore, her eyes were running dry and her heart needed to rest from aching. Sojin stood up, wiped down on the towel and walked over to her closet where she eyed the white dress that Leo said to have loved. Prying her gaze away from it, she chose a different dress and slipped it on. Her mind had gone completely blank and she knew at one point she would just stop feeling from all the hurt that almost ate her alive.

Sojin made her way towards the kitchen and was about to head for the fridge when suddenly, she didn't feel so good. Rushing towards the sink, she leaned over and spewed the remains of her dinner down the drain.

"That's...weird..." She mumbled to herself.

@Sojin Where he is he didn't give any single damn about it and just letting his feet drag him somewhere. He had done it. He overstepped the border and now she definitely hate him for always doing what he wanted and hurting her because of it. In fact he couldn't even forgive himself. Leo almost went berserk as he couldn't just hold his emotion any longer but he just opted to vent his anger and frustration to a quite big tree with one powerful back punch. During his lifetime as human and even after he turned into the creature of the night he never once lost his composure and during his trance he remembered his long dead father's words 'Love is nothing but a weakness.' Leo gritted his teeth, was he really became weak because of it? Well solitude has always been his best friend since forever and it seems like it will return to his spot now.

Leo took a deep breath even though that wasn't really necessary for him to do so. He ran his hand through his black hair and looked up to the moon hided by the clouds as his memories took him back to the recent scene in her house. How broken she looked and how miserable she is. The one he promised to protect ended up being hurt because of his own doing "Maybe its time..." Leo straighten his clothes before walking back to her house, looking at the door with soulless eyes. "I'll set you free Sojin."

@Leo Sojin turned when he apologized and she couldn't imagine how she looked when he actually left. It was as if she was on the brink of going insane. Tears continued to stream down her pale face as she sunk to the floor with a thud. Bringing her palms to her face, she hid herself in the dark corner of her room just quietly sobbing.

Her mind was blank. Oh, was it blank. She couldn't think of a single thing. Sojin was torn between taking him back or just letting him go... She didn't know what she wanted at all. She just didn't want to hurt anymore but she wanted to be with him just the same.

@Sojin Never letting her out of his sight, Leo's eyes followed all of her movement while printed the image forever on his brain who knows he wouldn't able to see her anymore. And just as if the God and the fate mocked him, she said the things he feared the most.

"I think... You should just leave."

His eyes widen in surprise as his whole body freeze. He somehow knew this was coming, it was supposed to but now when he heard that he couldn't help but pray he misheard it but there's no way giving the fact that their vampires ears are more sensitive to sound. Leo clenched his fists as he stood up his shoulders slumped in utter defeat. He had won many fights but now losing someone important in his immortal life, Leo thought all of those winning weren't worth the price even though he saved the day in the end he was still a loser. He gritted his teeth and without further ado he walked outside the bathroom "I see,sorry for barging in Ms. Park. Take a good care of yourself." As much as he didn't want to become cold to her it seemed like his body did the otherwise, with no second glance he left the house and jumped away into the darkness of the night.

@Leo She stopped all of a sudden and lifted her hands off his body. Sojin grabbed a towel and wrapped it around herself as soon as she stood up. The corners of tugged downwards to a sorrowful frown as she eyed him from across the bathtub.

She turned for the door,
"Why did... you come back?" It was a quiet mumble. She exited the bathroom before whispering shakily, "I think... You should just leave." The words she spoke hurt her more than he could ever imagine. But if he left her hanging, hoping and yearning for him once again she just couldn't take it anymore.

@Sojin Leo smiled at her when finally her hazy and unfocused gaze slowly returned to normal. He closed his eyes enjoying the touch from her on his face, shoulders and chest.

"Leo.I-It is you... It really is..."

He nodded and crouched down to her level, his eyes never leaving hers as it slowly hanged from red to the normal brown. Leo put his hand on top of hers caressing the cold skin with much care, longing and love "Yes it's me. I'm sorry again for leaving you without further explanation."

[Caressed*]

@Leo She gazed at the hazy figure floating around in her vision and for a while it looked like it was getting closer to her. "Hm..." A soft hum escaped her lips as she continued to stare. Sojin had only snapped back into reality when a cold palm caresses her warm cheeks. She inhaled sharply when she realized that it wasn't a dream nor was she just imagining things.

"That voice..." She quickly sat up, rubbed her eyes and when Leo's face had finally focused in her vision. Sojin's eyes widened,

"Leo." She exhaled, reaching out to touch his face. "I-It is you..." Her voice shook as she spoke, continuing to pat at his shoulders and chest. "It really is..."

@Sojin It was such a heart-wrenching scene in front of her. So his existence had reduced to just a mere dream for her but that's not the main point for him right now. Leo had to think how to bring back the old Sojin and not this miserable creature. He walked closer to her and put his cold hand on her cheek, caressing it softly "Then wake up from your dream. Me leaving was just another part of nightmare and its time for you to wake up, Park Sojin." Leo whispered softly his eyes fixed on her hazy ones.

@Leo Her slowed senses didn't make out much of the door swinging open. A figure entered the room but her blurred vision just couldn't seem to clear out who it was. She hiccupped as her head tilted slightly off to the side, trying to examine the odd person who had barged in. She couldn't recognize him through the distorted vision.

"Aha..." She giggled, "This must be a dream." Sojin whispered softly to herself, tracing the edges of the bathtub with her fingertips. "I wish everything was a dream..." She continued speaking nonsense, giggling to herself every now and then. "Everything would be better off as a dream." Sojin scooped up some froth from the tub and weakly blew so that the bubbles floated around before quickly disappearing.
