"The fact you count sitting through boring meetings as torture, is funny" She said "I mean forget the hanging by the fingers, and other violent methods, you get meetings, sound lucky to me" She said
Seth looked at her and smiled "Have I lied to you yet?" he asked. Well at least he didn't think he had, he would get her back, in time "Well we should stop wasting time and get going so you can do your job Ms.Angel" he said |
Randy grinned slightly at her comment. "Well...everyone has their most vicious means of torture. Mine is boredom." His grin got bigger. "I can deal with pain."
Jemini smiled up at him a little. "Ok." A small blush came to her cheeks and she moved slowly out of his arms. |
"Your... really odd" She said with a laugh. Someone who would rather have pain, then boredom really odd in deed
"It's this way" he said as he took her hand and started leading her again "I'm just wondering, but what happens to you if you fail to protect her?" He asked. He didn't know much about Angel policies if they were to fail a job, but he imagined they were better then Demon ones. |
Randy chuckled. "Why, I'll take that as a compliment." He'd gotten used to pain, so he could deal with it. At least he was doing something when he was in pain. Being bored sucked.
Jemini smiled slightly and kept hold of his hand. Her smiled slipped a little when he asked about what would happen to her if something should happen to Layla. "Well. If Layla dies, so will I." |
"Take it as you will" She said. She didn't mean it as a diss, but that was how people would normally take it, so she was surprised he didn't take it that way. "See now, the key is finding something to entertain yourself with, while your bored" She said
Seth looked back at her, and raised an eye brow "What do you mean you die?" He asked. Did they honestly kill off angels because they failed? And then said Demons were evil, it didn't seem like higher up angels were that different. |
Randy blinked, then shrugged at her comment. Then whinned slightly, like a little kid. "But they won't let me do anything but sit there."
Jemini looked at him, then looked down at her feet slightly. "If Layla dies....it will be because I am dead and can no longer protect her." She then looked up at him again. "As long as I am alive, nobody will get to her." |
Layla looked at him and laugh "Take it like a man" She said seriously. "There's no point in complaining about it, it just makes it worse" She said
"And what happens, if she dies, but you don't? What will happen to you then" he asked, he was more interested in what the Angels punishment would be. |
Randy just pouted, looking at her. Then all of a sudden grinned and laughed. "I guess it does."
Jemini blinked slightly, sort of confused by what he meant. "When angels fail their mission...most of the time, we can choose our punishment from a selection that the Heads decide." She paused for a second, looking as if it was painful just to say the next thing she did. "The worst punishment....for an angel...is being cast down into hell...after having our wings ripped off." |
"See, just deal with it, and move on, and it's easier" She said with a smile "Ah, maybe I should take my own advice" She said, considering she hadn't really moved on from what had happened.
Seth glanced back at her as he continued to lead her back the right way, or so he hoped "I thought Angel's were supposed to be forgiving, gracious creatures?" He asked and then glanced away "I don't see how Angels can view Demons so badly, when they do things like cast Angel's down to hell" He said |
Randy stopped her and turned to face her. "Layla...I've been trying to get you to see that all day." His voice was kind and soft, as well was his smile.
Jemini blushed and followed him again. "Angels...chose to have punishments. Everyone did....not just the heads." She looked away from him, but still followed. "We thought that...if someone messed up badly, they should have some sort of punishment. Or else they would never learn." She looked slightly sad. "There where only a couple accounts where an angel messed up so terribly as to recieve the worst punishment." She still did not look at him when she answered his other question. "Angels look down on demons....well....because an angel's sole purpose is to protect and guide pure souls....and they view demons as their enemies....because they do the opposite." |
"Well, you can't make someone notice something they don't wish to notice" She said softly. It was funny how one thing could make you notice what people had been telling you for a while, it was like, the world had been flipped and everything made sense.
Seth looked at her and sighed "If an Angels sole purpose is to protect and guild souls, they wouldn't have horrible punishments like they do" He said "Look I'm not judging you, I'm just saying you guys really have no right to look down on us the way you do, your higher ups are just as bad as ours, we may be different, but that doesn't mean were horrible and deserved to be looked down on because of that" he said. |
Randy smiled softly and nodded. "I guess you're right...but I'm glad you figured it out." His hand gently cupped her cheek, his thumb just barely stroking her cheek.
Jemini shook her head adamently. "The punishments aren't that bad, really. The worst is only for angels who've gone on a rampage and killed many innocent people just for the fun of it." She stopped cold when he said the next part, not letting him move her another foot, but she wouldn't jerk her hand away. Her eyes looked a little strange, an emotion she'd never experienced before. Her voice was a little quiet. "Who said I thought that way?" |
Layla laughed some "Just because I figured it out, doesn't mean I'll follow it" She said and looked up at him "You know, that whole hand on the cheek thing, is like leading to a kiss, in most cases anyway, you aren't going to kiss me are you?" She asked seriously, although she wasn't sure she would really mind.
"I never said you thought that way, don't get me wrong" He said and turned and looked at her "I meant angels in a majority think like that, your here with me right now, trusting me, so obviously you don't think I'm horrible, I mean your treating me nicely" He said with a smile |
Randy nodded slightly. "Figuring it out is just the first step." He blinked slightly when she asked. He took it as she didn't want him to, so he slowly shook his head and softly kissed her forehead.
Jemini just stood and watched him, listening. When he was done she seemed slightly more calm. Although, her grip on his hand had loosened quite a bit, as if she would pull it back if something else happened. She nodded slowly, but didn't speak. |
"There always has to be more then one step doesn't there? I think the world likes making things difficult" She said with a laugh. She didn't say anything when he kissed her forehead, wasn't what she meant, but all well, it didn't matter.
Seth looked at her and sighed "Look I'm sorry if I offended you, I don't want you upset or mad at me" he said. Which was something he had never cared about in till right now, which was odd, why did he even care in the first place? |
Randy chuckled a little. "Thus is the world." He smiled softly at her and shook his head slightly. "I'd never kiss a girl without permission." He then turned his head slightly up and stayed very still as butterflies seemed to hover around them.
Jemini glanced at him, then shook her head slowly. "I'm not upset or mad at you. You did not offend me." For some reason her heart hurt a little bit. |
Layla laughed some "A very sad world indeed" She said and raised an eye brow "So, when you like someone, you ask them if your allowed to kiss them?" She asked "Isn't half the fun, it just happening?" She asked with a small laugh
Seth looked at her and sighed "Then whats wrong?" he asked. He felt like he had done something wrong that hurt her and he didn't like that. |
Randy nodded slightly. Then sighed softly, but didn't look at her. "I'd rather not be shot down or hurt the girl's feelings if she didn't want me to kiss her."
Jemini blushed softly. "I'm...not sure..." Her hand went to rest gently over her heart, then sighed softly. "Can we stop? I don't think I can go anywhere right now..." |
"That's an interested theory, but don't you think it might be more awkward for someone to say No" She said. This wasn't supposed to turn into a whole conversation, but he just kept proving her theory that he was an interesting guy.
Seth looked at her and nodded "Then are we just going to stay here all night?" He asked as he looked at her "Are you okay?" He asked |
Randy smiled softly and shook his head. "Not really....not for me. If she were to say no, that'd be the end of it." He looked at her with a small smile that showed a little of his beautifully white teeth. "Do you want to stay here or go somewhere else?"
Jemini shook her head. "No...I don't think I am...but I don't want to stay here all night..." She didn't want to run into trouble out here this late. No matter what time you were in, bad people always came out at night. She looked up at him, asking for a solution with her eyes. |
Layla looked at him and smiled "Well, I have to say, your just keep surprising me, I've never meet a guy like you before" She said, Obviously she hadn't, she had never ran into a vampire before, well, nothing about him was like other guys she had meet, and she liked it "We can go somewhere else if you want, doesn't matter to me" She said
Seth looked at her and raised an eye brow "What exactly is wrong with you?" He asked trying to think of a way he could get her back "Ah, how about I give you a piggy back ride back? I think that's what humans call them" He said. That way she wouldn't have to walk, and she would be able to get back like she wanted. |
Randy smiled a little more. "That's good to hear. I wouldn't want to be normal." Then he looked as if he didn't want to leave, then he sighed softly. "Your friend doesn't look like the type to want to be away from her ward for very long."
Jemini just shook her head a little at his question of what was wrong with her. She didn't know, so she couldn't give him an answer. She blushed when he asked if she wanted a 'piggy-back ride'. She'd heard someone say that before and seen what it meant. "Umm....if you want...I guess I'm ok with it.." |
"Being normal is over rated anyway" She said with a laugh "I don't need someone to watch over me every second, besides she stormed off not me, not my problem" She said. It wasn't her fault Jemini had left her, and she would be fine by herself probably "We can stay here a bit longer, then I probably should head home" She said
"Get on then" He said as he turned around and bent down so she could get on his back. He had no idea why he was going to far for her when they hardly even knew each other, he never did anything this nice for anyone before. And here he was doing nothing but nice things for her, nothing at all, he wasn't used to this or the feeling he had around her. |
Randy chuckled softly. "It is overrated." Then he blinked slightly. "I don't think she is still angry with him. He has a way of making you want to get along with him. Its kind of strange actually." He rubbed the back of his head a little. "Alright. You don't want to miss out on any sleep."
Jemini blushed but slowly and carefully climbed onto his back. "Are you sure you're ok with this?" |
"I wouldn't know, didn't really talk to him" She said with a laugh "So do you really have to be invited into house?" She asked with as she looked at him "No, but if I'm out to late my Mom will ask questions" She said
Once, she was on his back and secure he started to walk "It's fine" he said with a soft smile "If I wasn't okay, I wouldn't have offered" He said |
