Gabriel Gabriel looked down as he felt the weak grip in his hand. His eyes were slightly hollow as he looked down at Dante, not for any reason except starvation. Turning back to his door. he muttered. "You were the first i admitted it to aswell.." Walking in he walked to his bed abd climbed into it. His words were true, though he had had a girlfriend before he was turned, he never said he loved her. Love was very hard for him to express, yet withDante it seemed so easy. The reason for that was beyond Gabriel, yet he didnt mind. It felt nice to love and to show it. Curling up he closed his eyes, determined to try and get back to sleep so his hunger would stop burning. |
"G-Gabe..." Why did he feel like shit? He watched the man leave for his room before lowering his head in anguish. What.... what did he have to do to make that guy happy? Damn, this was why he wasn't allowed to get close to civilians! He sighed uneasily, leaning against the wall and absently liking the blood from his hand. He tasted it before frowning in disappointment. He tasted disgusting. Maybe Gabriel just lied to make him feel better...? "Sleep well, then..." He muttered before slowly trekking back downstairs. He couldn't find one ounce of strength in himself to force a happy face on, not even a half assed one. He felt as if he'd been slapped in the face, but he was sure Gabriel felt worse. That's what really killed him. |
(( oooh Ti is back, w0000t))
|
( No, he left... but Dante's downstairs and dejected, now. Feel free to have hito be all Hitoie. xD )
|
((mawhahahha))
Hito didn't really care about the human and vampire that were having a lovers spat. He put his arms on the back of the sofa purposely as Oni shifted a little uncomfortably. Though he wanted to tease more people even if he really shouldn't "Nice going," he said to Dante with laughter in his voice. |
"Fuck off, leech." Dante spat distastefully, glaring at the old vampire before storming across the room. He played with the wounds on his hands a bit before taking a seat at the bar once more. He looked to the set up Gabriel had left behind, though his appetite was long gone by now. He crossed his arms, laying his head on them as he tried to relax. |
Hito let out a loud peal of laughter at how Dante had reacted. He really should leave him alone but he was bored. "Tidus, Dante, Oni today is a good day. . I can feel it. We should go hunting," he said out of a spur of the moment idea. He was in an odd mood today and having far too much fun.
Oni was trying not to squirm but he felt so uncomfortable being so close to Hito. He sent a mental message to Ti saying, "W-would it be rude if I got up and moved?" He didn't want to be rude to Ti's teacher but it was odd being so close to him. Oni knew he should be nicer since the vampire had save him and Dante. |
"A drunk kid, a paranoid cuddle buddy, and two vampires... Why the Hell don't you two leeches go alone?" He muttered irritably. This was just stupid. By hunting, he knew what Hito meant; for blood. Damned bastard... like he'd want to watch him feed. |
Hito knew that Dante was assuming the vampires would be drinking blood but that wasn't how he had meant it. Hito just smiled and said, "I figured you wouldn't be any good at it but still thought I would ask. Too bad you let your curse disable you so much." Oh yes he was going over the line but he didn't care.
|
"God dammit!" Dante smacked his hands against the counter and turned to glare at the leech. "When the Hell did you turn into Jackass?!" No, he wasn't gonna be here for this. So far he'd been able to avoid the taunts on his curse but.. god damn! He was drunk, and pissed, and this wasn't the time to lay anything more on him. He went straight to the front door, wrenching it open and leaving the door wide open, hardly caring to keep the heat of the building inside. He was barefoot, and hardly had enough warm clothes on, but the alcohol was keeping him 'warm' enough. |
Hito knew the state that Dante was in but still let him walk out in the cold. How did that human survive so long with that temper of his. He shook his head and looked at the time. He would go after the boy if he didn't return soon.
Oni was angry now at Hito for saying such mean things to Dante. He stood up and said hotly, "T-t-that's just mean and you're stupid!" He ran after Dante but made sure to close the door he had left open. Once he caught up to Dante he said softly, "He's just being stupid Dante. You should come back you don't have any shoes on." He was worried because he knew that Dante didn't usually listen to him. |
Dante kept going, even as Oni rabbled at him. "Oni, I shouldn't even be here." He muttered angrily. He shouldn't. He didn't want to be. Every day was just ripping him apart. He knew he couldn't be here forever. Gabriel would die if he up and left. But he had a job to do. "It's not even cold... I'm fine." |
"B-but why shouldn't you be here? I-I-I like having you here. You help me to read and keep me safe and make sure I brush my teeth," he said desperately. He didn't even want to think of Dante leaving. It would be like loosing Xanic all over again. He cared about Dante.
Oni knew it was cold because he was cold. "It is cold and you're always telling me how important it is to take care of yourself. Please come back inside. . .we could go upstairs or something. Oh wait what about the stables? No ones there and it's warmer than out here?" he said desperately. |
Dante was hit hard by that. He practically stumbled to a stop, his eyes trapped on the snow below. "O-Oni...." forget about Gabriel. Oni... Oni would be crushed. He felt pain build up into him as he crouched down and cradled his face. How could he leave? He couldn't leave! Not with how things were. If he left, so would the government. Oni would be practically vulnerable and... and he had latched onto Dante as if he were the only light he had. Well, there was Lukas and Ti, but when were they ever around? He could feel himself cracking already. This wasn't good. His boss had warned him about getting close to civilians for a reason! Was this how it felt to leave family? What were people thinking. "Fine... Oni. Fine..." |
Oni watched as Dante crouched and covered his face. He got worried that maybe he had said something wrong. He just wanted to make sure Dante was okay. He was always taking care of him and Oni wanted to be there for him too.
Though when Dante agreed to go somewhere warmer Oni reached to take on of his hands but then remembered they were hurt. He gently took hold of his arm and said softly, "Do you want to go inside or to the stables?" He would let Dante pick but it was cold out here. |
Oni was a kid. He'd freeze in no time. Not to mention Oni would probably freak out once he noticed they were outside; in the open. He sighed and placed a hand over Oni's before bowing his head. "Inside. You'd be more comfortable there, right...?" It'd be pretty pathetic having Oni usher him back, he knew this. Hito would get a chance to act snooty in his ultimate douchebaggery and... why the Hell WAS he being a douche anyways? It was unprovoked, and there wasn't even a purpose. he just felt like stabbing needles in Dante's heart! the bastard even knew about what happened between him and Gabriel, but of course, seeing as Dante had chased Gabriel and returned in such a pitiful state... it could have just been too fucking obvious. "Oni, what do you wanna do...?" |
Hito knew he had been out of place but it was just so easy to poke at him. He used the shadows to see what was going on. He got up and went out back and disappeared into the forest. He knew it would be better if he wasn't around for a while. He decided to go hunting for a meal and maybe later he would come back.
Oni was careful cause he didn't want to hurt Dante's hands but it felt nice. "Yeah inside wouldn't be bad. Maybe we could go downstairs or to my room?" he suggested to his friend. He knew that Dante didn't want to be around Hito and honestly neither did Oni. He replied to him saying, "I dunno, maybe something mellow but fun. Oh I know! I found the TV room. . they even have videos Dante. I bet there are tons I've never seen either . . . but only if Dante wants to also." He hoped he could cheer Dante up but he knew he wasn't much good for anything but he could still try. |
"Mindless fun sounds great. TV room it is." He sighed and held the boy's hand. He was shivering now, but he didn't feel cold at all. How dangerous. He closed his eyes for a bit before smiling weaker than ever up at Oni. "Lead the way, alright? I haven't been to that room before." He looked back down, wishing he could just pull himself together. Hito had hit him so hard so easily; he hated at. Ninety percent on his time here he'd been stuck like this. The scientist... whatever he had done, he made Dante even worse. He hated it! What if he could never be normal again? Always trapped like... this. |
Oni lead them back to the Inn and slowly opened the door to peek in. Luckily he didn't see Hito anywhere around. He opened the door all the way getting them both in and then shutting the door. The TV room was just off the main room but the door was sort of hidden by the stairs. He lead them to the room and opened the door shutting it behind them.
The room had a huge comfy sofa so Oni took Dante over to it. He let go of his hand and grabbed a blanket setting it on the sofa next to Dante. "Wrap up okay and I'll go look at the movies. I'll say which ones they have and you tell me if we should watch it okay." he said hoping this was a good idea. |
Dante looked to the blanket before sighing and pulling it over himself. He groaned and lowered his head against his knees, hugging his legs under the blanket. He must have looked pathetic. "Oni... do you like music? Look at any Disney movie. Ah.." What one...? "Cinderella. You'd like that." At least it wasn't too thrilling and didn't have a giant snake trying to eat the hero. He wasn't sure Oni would appreciate that right now. |
Oni went over and went through the videos. With out realizing it he could read all the titles perfectly fine. His mind was on Dante though so he didn't think of how odd this really was. As he flipped through the movies he found the one called Cinderella. "Okay I think I found it. Is it the one with the girl in the big dress and a magic lady?" he asked.
|
"Yeah, that one..." Dante muttered. How could he notice? She was still drunk off his ass. He closed his eyes, trying to relax himself. He held his legs closer before bringing one hand to finger the cellphone in his pocket. He... couldn't quit... could he? Put he was so miserable here. He could just escape everything, but... that would be selfish. So... if he escape being a tool for the government, he'd just the the tool for two other being's own relief. He just wanted peace... |
Xanic had taught Oni how to put movies in so he was able to do that without help. The movie began and Oni went back to the sofa and sat down next to Dante. He looked at Dante and said, "I. . I'm really glad Dante is here with me. I wish we were brothers. I - " he was going to say more but the screen caught his attention as the warnings past and previews came on. Oni was always VERY distracted by TV. He snuggled close to Dante though wanting contact.
|
"O-Oni..." He winced at the words, taken aback completely. That was... too much. He felt his lips quiver as he was held close, unable to even find anymore words. He couldn't pay attention to the screen in front of them, his mind was in too many places at once. But... he could never replace Xanic. He never wanted to. Xanic shouldn't even have been dead. Oni shouldn't have been in this state. This should be happening to a kid! He leaned his full weight against Oni, silent tears falling from his eyes. He couldn't help it anymore, the alcohol hardly helped. |
Oni was watching in rapture as the various things flicked across the screen. He did not hear or see the tears that Dante was shedding. He did though feel the small form lean against him. He looked down but only saw the top of Dante's small head. He wrapped his arms around Dante holding him. It was then he realized he was crying. He got a worried look and was about to say something but realized that Dante most likely wouldn't want Oni to know he was crying. Oni knew this was one small thing he could do for the man so he pretended he didn't notice. He held him close but kept his eyes on the tv screen. He hoped he was doing the right thing.
