Elements II

[uniquemonke]

"Oh, I like it"she told him, then brushed his hair back with her fingers.

 

[DestinyLies]

Flame's breath caught in his chest as the tips of her fingers touched his skin.

 

[uniquemonke]

She smiled, and ran her fingers down the side of his face to his jaw.

 

[DestinyLies]

Flame's heart was soaring.

 

[BarbarianKing]

"Do you remember how the water was warmer when we were swimming underwater? If I make a ball of water and throw it, like I did when I was training, do you think you can do something with fire?"

 

[uniquemonke]

She saw the look in his eyes, and smiled a little, she rested her head on his chest again.

(ooc its Leila's turn to be the vulnerable one!)


"Leila?" Aasen asked after she didn't reply.

She didn't know what to say. How could she tell him? How could she explain her shame, her guilt, her...it was too much. She jumped in a flinch and tucked her knees into her chest.

"Leila!" Aasen was by her side, holding her shoulders...

...like he had...

Suddenly, with out warning, Leila screamed.

 

[DestinyLies]

Flame laughed."You like this position don't you?" He asked teasingly as he wrapped his arms around her.


Destiny's eyes flared."I can try." She said.Destiny jumped up at Leila's scream. She saw them a few hundred yards away. She quickly turned into a phoenix and flew to them. "What's wrong?" She asked Aesen.

 

[uniquemonke]

Acela jumped against Flame, when she heard the scream, she looked around and saw Leila and Aasen, her eyes widened, and she ran over.

 

[DestinyLies]

Flame heald Acela protectively for a second, he followed her to Leila.

 

[dayhawk68]

"I was pressing her too hard...I dont know she just..." Aasne didn't know how to answer this.


Leila, with her face buried in her knees, kept saying "I wont go back, I wont go back, I wont go back,I wont go back,"

"I cant get her out of it!"

 

[uniquemonke]

Acela kneeled down next to Leila, "Leila sweetheart? It's Acela, what's going on?"she asked her in a whisper, she rubbed her back.

 

[DestinyLies]

Destiny touched Leila,she seemed to go into a trance. She saw parts of Leila's past...the things she had been through. "Leila," She whispered. A grave....Leila's parents...she saw.

 

[dayhawk68]

Acela kneeled down next to Leila, "Leila sweetheart? It's Acela, what's going on?"she asked her in a whisper, she rubbed her back.

"I can't go back Acela," she said as she grasped her arm, as if holding to something she didnt want to lose, "I cant face my father, and I cant bare to see her grave! She was the only thing worth living for."

Aasen finally knew what was happening, "She's in post tramtic stress...and its my fault," he said as he leaned back on the rock and held his head, clutching his hair.

 

[uniquemonke]

Acela looked at Flame, telling him with her eyes, to help Aasen. She held Leila in her arms, "Your not going back, your staying here, with us"she told her in a whisper.

 

[BarbarianKing]

Arcturus had never seen Leila this like this before.

 

[DestinyLies]

Flame knealt by Leila. "You're not going anywhere. You're safe here with us,Leila." He told her.


Destiny looked worriedly up at Arcturus. "Her past..."She muttered."She doesn't want to go back..."She pulled her arm away from Leila and burried her face in Arcturus's chest.

 

[dayhawk68]

Suddenly Leila took hold of Destiny's hand, "Alida..." she said and then went in and out of conscienceness.

 

[uniquemonke]

Acela looked into poor Leila's eyes, "Leila, come back, look i my eyes and come back"she told her in a whisper. Acela could see and feel Leila's pain and fear. She tried not to cry.

 

[dayhawk68]

"My baby..." Leila whispered softly.
