How did this happen!? | cw

It had just been one of those days when you could do nothing but sit and slowly fall into your own world, or sit and enjoy a good movie, while slowly waisting time. Alouette had chosen that instead of sitting and wasting time at home with a movie, she would go to the cinema at the big mall and waste some time watching a movie there. She choose the late night watching on purpose, on a sunday, just to get away from as many people as possible. She choose a movie that was running for it´s last time and when she choose the movie ticket, she could already see on the screen, that she would be the only one in there. She got some popcorn and a coke, before going all the way down to the last seeting place in the side, before sitting down and starting to munch on some popcorns. The movie began and slowly she started to feel the effect of the movie and late time, she slowly feel asleep and when she woke up, she was greeted with darkness.

" Hm?, thats odd. Hello?! ". She got up and looked a bit around, confused at the sight she saw, before straightening her hair a bit and brushing crumbs from the popcorn away from her clothes before finding her phone. She looked at the top of it. " Shit, only 4 percentage left.. ". She let out a slight sound of disappointment, before turning on her phones flashlight, keeping an eye out for the batteri precentage of her phone, before slowly walking up the stairs. When she opened the door, she was greeted with a dark hall, that instantly made her feel creeped out. " Ugh, this is so disgusting.. H-Hello!.. is anybody here? ". She tried to focus on the darkness in front of her and flashed the light a little, towards the empty and dark hallway, but nothing.

When she finally got out of the cinema, she could see dimned light from the mall, and then it suddenly hit her. " I´s closed.. but that mean´s, that i´m trapped here, wait no! ". She quickly looked at her phone and was about to dial the number to the police station, but before she could call her phone died, from the use of the flashlight. " NO!, please!... ". She looked at the phone with big eyes, before looking around. " Hello! ". She looked and looked, but finally she got tired and stopped calling, before finding a place at the second floor, near a fountain. She looked at the phone, before leaning backwards, giving a sligt sigh. " This cant be.. why is there no security guard.. there is always one, isnt there? ".

She gave a slight shudder when she suddenly heard a bang not long from where she was at. * What was that? *. Suddenly she didnt feel that good about her decision she had made earlier, with yelling and maybe attracting a not wanted person or thing near herself. But how bad could it be?. When she suddenly noticed a man walking towards her, she quickly stood up and looked at him with caution. But when he spoke, she couldent help but look a little confused. * That accent?, maybe a tourist from America? *. She could suddenly feel how the tension in her body almost disappeared without a trace, but something in her, was still on alert towards him, but why?.. she didnt know. She had never been one, that was good to pinpoint demons or creatures of more evil personalities, or birth, for that matter. She sat down again and made room for him to sit besides her, but not to close. " I dont think, i have ever seen a security guard or police for that matter, carry a gun ".

She couldn't help but stare a little at him. His blue eyes, was so different from her innocently looking deep brown doe eyes. His next words came as surprise, but it was still kinda fun, the was that he described it. Now it was said, she could actually see it, how the dimned light almost created this horror scenario.
She took a close look at his pants, before holding her hand in front of her mouth, trying not to let out a little laugh, before removing it, where a little smile could be seen over her full lips, before she jokingly said " Well, you certainly look the part " to his, bad zombie movie. " Isnt there actually a zombie movie, where the people are trapped in a mall, with zombies surrounding them? ". She tilted her head a little, when he asked her what she did, to get herself into this mess. " Well, it´s kinda embarrasing to say, but.. i went for a movie and suddenly ended in a boring zombie movie, well.. boring before i met this strange guy with ripped pants, and now i´m just waiting for him to turn and eat me ". She couldn´t help it, he had set it up so easily for her, so of course she would tease him a little. " So how did you end up in this mess ". It was only now, that she noticed the way he was staring at her, up and down.. which made her blush from embarrassment.

She had noticed the tapping and when he snapped his fingers, she raised her brow a little, before looking at him with a confused expression. When he introduced himself, she just gave him a little smile but no hand shake. " Nice to meet you Charles. My name is... ". She stopped for a second and gave a little laugh, but thinking for herself * You dont know this man!, he could be dangerous!.. give him a false name *. " Is Skye ". Inside her brain almost yelled at her, for coming up with such a bad false name, but she looked at him, with her best pokerface, and innocent smile, before getting up and stretching a little. " Well, i´m starving. Do you wanna get something to eat? ". She started walking and if he wasnt going with her, she would stop and look towards him, before giving a little smile, before walking over towards a café area. There was something charming and alluring over him, which made her feel uneasy and alert.

She had to admit, he was a fun one, both his comebacks but also how he made jokes, and just was so out there, not giving a single fuck, what she would think, or that´s what she got from him atleast. " Star of the movie?, i guess it would be sad to zombiefie you, making you even more handsome than you already are ". She joked, before she sticked her tongue out for a moment, before hiding it behind her full lips again. When they walked over to the cafeteria, she tried to place his accent, before it all came together. " So you must be from America, am i right? ". She dodged under the grid, before looking at it a little, when she was on the other side. When he got under and inside, she couldnt help but try to pull the grid up herself, but the damn grid wouldnt budge at all. * Wow.. is he even human? *. Something in the back of her brain, a feeling.. it was on the tip of her tongue, but as naive and oblivious she was, she let the feeling slide for now.

She followed him over to the kitchen, as fast as she could, so she didnt lose sight of him, as he was about to go into the kitchen, before asking her what she was in the mood for. This was a first. " Hmm, i actually didnt think that far.. so.. lets just see what they have ". She followed him into the kitchen, before looking around a bit. She found the big industrial fridge and opened it, before looking at all the food in the small transparent boxes. She looked over her shoulder, when he took a vodka bottle, before drinking it clean and straight from the bottle. " Eww!, doesn´t that taste vile?! ". She just looked at him now, with a rather surprised look on her face, from just being baffled, that he could even drink that stuff clean, as he did.

When he moved over to her and the fridge, she made space for him to look into it, before she answered him. " Mac´n Cheese is fine with me. I have never tasted it, so i cannot wait to get to taste Charles, the master of Mac´n Cheese, cooking ". A little chuckle could be heard coming from her, but she didnt mean it in a spiteful way, but more playfully and jokingly. She nodded briefly, before finding a pot for him and placing near the stove. She stopped in her movement, when she went over to the cabinets, to find some macaroni, when he asked her, why she lied about her name. " I.. well, one can never be too careful you know, but if you absolute wanna know, it´s Alouette ". A little smile formed over her full lips, before looking at Charles. " How do i even know, it you are telling the truth. For all i know, your name could be.. Trevor, or something like Lucas.. specially since Charles is such a british name, but your accent screams America ".

She took the macaronies and put down beside the pot, before hopping up on a table near him, pressing a buttom on the radio, before the kitchen was filled with a slight sound from the radio. She looked at the radio for a second, before changing channel to something a little more indie rock music genre. She turned the volume down, i hopes that, if someone were to come, that the wouldnt be noticed right away. Also the light in the kitchen was dimned and not set on the brightest setting, near the light switch, making the situation almost kinda romantic in a way, but it could also go full horror, if one thought too long about it. " So Charles, has this ever happened to you before?. Not the getting locked inside a mall, but more the whole, cooking for someone other than yourself? ". he didnt seem like the type, that had a girlfriend or wife or maybe a boyfriend? or maybe he wasnt into anything or everything. She chuckled a little, thinking about it.

A chuckle escaped her lips, when he said american born and bred and then even called her ma´am. It was the first time she had ever been called that, but then again, it just showed her, how good some men was raised and not all about america was bad, was like the news said. She liked the strong american accent, it gave him character, but then again, he didnt need it to begin with, but he had alot of character himself. His style, his hair, just overall. * he could totally pass as a rockstar *. When he handed the bottle to her, she took it and looked a little at it, before turning her gaze to him. A smile formed over her lips, before taking the bottle to her full lips, that got the remains from his sip, before she felt the liquid slowly pour into her mouth. " Ew! ". She coughed a little, before taking her hand up to her lips, pressing the back of her hand against her lips, squinting her eyes and trying just hold on, until the bad taste subsided a little. " That´s way too strong ".

When he said hold up and narroed his eyes at her, she tilted her head, looking at him with a confused expression. A little chuckle started, when he said 'fucking europeans' before she followed his hands and actions. " Well, being bored is sometimes a good thing, or more being boring. Better that, than ending up in something you cant get out of ". She smiled a little, before jumping down, walking around a little, looking at the different stuff in the kitchen. " Oh it is, but as far as i can see, you are white and white people always seem to just keep to some key names ". She laughed a little and smiled innocently, as she didnt mean anything bad with it. " But i like Charles, it suits you more than Trevor ". She couldnt help joke a little with him, but she meant it. It gave her lips a little curve in the shape of a smile, when he said that he liked her name more than skye, but also the little info that came after.

She liked to hear him share something about himself. It felt freeing being in his company, like nothing really mattered, and that everything was possible, like people could do whatever they wanted without thinking of making themselves fools in the eyes of the people. " Ah, dont sell yourself short. You do know how to make a national treasure of a dish ".
When he suddenly changed in the mood, and said that it was enough about that, after his most things, she couldnt help but feel a bit curious, but she would let it slide for now. When he found the cheese, she walked over to a cabinet, where she had seen a grater, before taking it out and walking over to a table near the pot. She found a chopping board and put under it, before smiling to him. " Not actually i dont. Its not like i dont like to talk to strangers, but.. there are just something freeing about you ".

It surprised her, but she didnt let it show. Maybe he just liked to call himself a demon, but then again.. his words didnt match up with the way nothing being able to taste then?. She let it slide for now, but it was definitely something she would come back to. Suddenly his words didnt sound so playfull or inviting as they had did before, did she overstep his boundries?. * I didnt mean no harm.. *. She let the awkward mood subside, before listening to his talking about his parents and then making a joke, which made her lips curl up in a little smile. When he looked at her, she looked back.. was there something on her face?, but then it hit her?.. hadnt she seen him somewhere?. * Maybe Athena?.. *. She was most certain now, that she had seen him somewhere, but then again.. it wasnt the biggest town, and if he lived around here, they had properly seen each other from time to time.

When he said the words, she couldnt just let it slide anymore. " So you are a demon. Who would have thought ". So the lingering feeling was right, there was something with him, and that something.. was that he was a demon. " Not that it matters anyway. Its not like Lucifer himself wasnt an angel to begin with ". She moved out of the way, when he moved over to remove the water from the pot. She followed him with her deep brown eyes, as he let her in on his secret, before putting the pot on the table and saying that she should grab a fork. She grabbed two, before going over to him, looking a little. She wasnt stupid.. he wanted to just take the food from the pot. She put his fork in the food, so he could take some, if he wanted it, before putting her fork down into the food and taking some up, gently blowing on it, so it wasnt too hot, before putting it on the strawberry red tongue of hers. First she felt her tongue prickle and the strongness of the chili hit her.. but then the cheese took over and suddenly, she craved another bite. " Mmh!, its delicious ". It wasnt 5 star food, but it was something that she could see herself enjoy well into the future. She didnt care for all that, demons bad angels good kinda stuff. Of course demons wasnt a good thing, but she believed that there was something good in all creatures, and something bad in all.

When she asked if she was slow or something, she squinted her eyes at him and said " No ". She wasnt angry at him for saying it, but then again, what did he or she even know about each others races. When he asked her if she minded, she tilted her head a little to the side, before saying. " I dont mind " with a raised eyebrow, before looking at the pot and taking a bite again. It was strong she would give him that, but in a good kind of way. Lucky for her, she was used to the strong kind of things. She coughed a little, when the smoke came in contact with her, before waving it away from her with her hand.
She gave a little smile, before taking another bite. She nodded when he started to talk about demons and the non existing tastebuns. She looked surprised when he said it tasted nasty. " Well there must be something in this world that doesnt taste nasty to you, but.. that must suck, not being able to taste such delicious food, except if it never tasted good to begin with, then no loss i guess ". She gave a little smile, before stopping eating. She had had 8 mouthful and was not planning on making i nine.. she was stuffed to the brink. " Thanks for the meal Charles, it was delicious ". She gave him a genuine smile, before jumping down from the table and then taking all the dishes to the sink.

She looked back at him, when he said that he felt he had seen her before, before hearing the word Athena. " Oh, yeah.. i did go there, for a while actually ". She looked away from him, before she started hosing the dishes and the things used to make the food. She looked down at the running water, while she had her back to him, still listening to the sweet music filling the room, now mixed with the sound of running water. She started to scrub the dishes, before gently moving a lok of hair, that feel in front of her face to the back of her ear. " Did you go to Athena? ". She tried to remember him, but nothing quite came to her mind. " I didnt take you for the school type to be honest.. ".

A short laugh escaped her plump lips, when he said that he didnt take her for a dropout, after she had said she didnt take him for the school type. " No, i dont think anybody saw it coming, but who knows, maybe i actually was invisible to the most in the school ". She didnt have the biggest friend group, not that it mattered and not that she cared about it. She would rather have people at her side, that she could trust and confine in, instead of a big group of strangers by her side, ready to leave any minute, if something better came along. She listened to the water, while feeling the sprinkles of drops on her hands.. slowly she could hear him walking closer to her, and she felt a warm feeling spred inside of her. Normally demons and angels should despise each other, but she would be lying.. if she said that she didnt find Charles attractive.. alluring, in his own american way, with that carefree nature of his, and the way he would look at her sometimes. She got a slight shiver and trembled for a moment, before she got snapped out for her little dreamy universe, when she heard him take the phone. She turned off the water, before starting to dry the plates and packing the food, so it would be there to the next day. She got some bills up from her pocket, before laying them at the table to her right. She turned around so she looked right at Charles, while leaning back a little.

When she heard the woman´s voice in the phone, she looked at him with a rather surprised expression, before turning her back to him and stepping away from him a little, so he didnt get the feeling that she was listening in, but she could stille hear most of the conversation, but it didnt show on her. She let her brown doe eyes gaze at him for a second, on his thumb that he bit down in, to his lips, before looking away from him. When he said that he was out with friends, after she had said that she would never let him slither into her, she turned around and tilted her head a little to the side, with an innocent look in her eyes. When he smiled at her, she gave him a genuine smile back, before starting to play a little with her hair. She couldnt really keep up with the conversation, but something had broke and some other thing with blood?, it didnt quite make sense to her. When he suddenly got in a hurry she followed him out of instinkt, before she even noticed herself. She stopped shortly in her tracks when he turned to her and asked her if she wanted to come with him. " Yes ". She didnt say much after that but just hurried to follow him, when he broke the alarm.

She could feel the fireescape vibrate under dem, before picking up her pace, but Charles was tall and she was not nearly as tall as him, so two steps for him, was almost four for her. She quickly walked up to his side before looking at him with a worried expression. " What happened?, are she okay.. did she hurt herself ". The last part was said with such concern. She didnt know the woman and she properly wouldnt be super trilled to see a girl in Charles company, after he said friends instead of friend and a girl for that matter, after the first line she had said about fucking around. " Is she your girlfriend? " she caught herself almost sounding disappointed, which made her feel weird?, because she didnt have any feelings for Charles, other than he was fascinating to her, and she felt drawn.. but that was a completely different thing. " Are you okay? ". She looked in front of her when she asked this. She didnt know how he would take it, but she felt like asking him, because the phone call didnt sound like a good one at all.

She listened careful to every word he said, while hurrying with him. She stopped for a second when they finally arrived, before looking up with big eyes, trying to pick the pieces up. She didnt hope the words he said meant what they meant, but she couldnt help but wonder. When he barged inside, she decided to stand outside for a moment or two, before going in, trying to ignore the heavy smell of metal in the air from all the blood. Her eyes laid their gaze on the arm as the first thing, before looking at her as in whole. She was shocked at what she was seeing, but she knew exactly what had happened. She briefly took herself in placing her hand at her arm, where no scars could be seen, but it wasnt really a surprise, that she too.. had done something similar, but only one time and only one big cut. She had healed herself with her powers at that time, but the memory.. the feelings.. it was all still stuck.. deep deep down inside of her.

She snapped out of her own mind, when she heard Charles voice calling her name, asking her to run a bath. She looked around, pointing at the different doors, before just going looking herself, until she found the door, not closed and with light turned on. She opened it and then turned on the bath water, before feeling the temperature. She could hear Charles coming near and looked briefly at him and the girl. Flo did he call her.. She couldnt help but feel her heart strings pull. She couldnt do anything for her or for Charles, other than just be there. She looked at her, when Charles left to go look for a needle and a thread.

The last thing this girl needed, was properly someone saying anything but she just couldnt help herself. She sighed before slowly standing up, walking towards the woman, before she sat down. She took of her shirt with a concerned look for all the blood, still flowing from the open wounds, before she moved closer to the girl. laying it over her arm, if she was fighting her, she would just look at her with concerned look. He had removed the shirt and the blood was slowly starting to run again. " Look, i´m only here to help.. nothing else ". She bit her underlip, before looking at her arm, then saying in a low voice. " Nobody asks to feel this way.. its not something a person can control all on their own.. or else we wouldnt do it in the first place ". She said we, as in she had done something like this too. She didnt know why the girl had done it, and she didnt even know if she wanted her help or if she would get yelled at, but she would not back down, even if she girl would slap her or try anything. She knew what chaos could dwell inside of a person this broken.. even if it wasnt the same kind of sea of thoughts or feelings, it was still a sea and they would all drown in the same way.

She ended up sitting down, waiting for Charles to return and hoped that he had found something to clean the wounds with, just a little, before he would start to sew in the girl. " He walked so fast over here, that it felt impossible to keep up with him. You must really mean alot to him ". She had a little smile show on her lips, before feeling an overwhelming feeling of being alone. She didnt have someone like that in her life anymore, but it was okay for now. When Charles would come, she would stand up, waiting for his kommand, as to what to do.

When the girl didnt try to push her away or do anything to her, she gently pressed down at the open wounds, but not with too much pressure, as to hurt her or push any more blood out. She only needed to hold it. She looked around for a brief moment, to see if there was any towels to use instead, but a shirt was always better, because towels would just pull in the wound and hurt even more, also it would suck too much of the blood at one time, and for now, it needed to stay in the wound, so it could help speed the healing process. She looked a little at it, concerned if she had hit the major artery. * if only i could heal.. *. She tried for herself to see if it was actually possible, that powers didnt work near her, but they didnt. * Shit.. he was right, well.. its not like i thought that he lied, but.. if only he had *. She looked up, when the girl started to speak to her, and she could hear the void, of drowning in her voice. Her heartstrings was pulled and she felt the pain in her chest, slowly but surely. Normally people would say, that it wasnt true or say that some day, something better would come of it, but the only word of comfort she could share with her, was the words she had told herself, when ever she had felt everything became too much and when she wanted to end everything. " Suicide is a permanent solution, to a temporary state of mind... dont let it win. Fight for yourself, not Charles, not the people that love you, fight for the little girl inside, that had a whole future and still has ".

Her words was not blaming but understanding, as the only solution one had in this situation, was to not give in, to pick up the pieces, until next time ones world would crash again. " Charles said that you are like family to him, so i think you mean more to him, than what you know ". Her words was filled with care, both for her and Charles. She didnt know them that well, or at all, but something in her, made her understand. She smiled a little to her, before hearing the door go up and looked up to see Charles barge in, before she heard his words and looked at Flo. Her expression dropped to a concerned one, before she said with a nervous tone in her soft voice. " Shouldnt we get a doctor or maybe a house call.. ". She had a personal family doctor, but she didnt wanna intrude, not as long as she felt that Charles had everything under control.

She looked with such concern as she started to sew her together, while she felt the situation was just ending up being more and more critical. She could hear them argue about some guy, but she didnt know why that was such a big deal. She didnt wanna ask for more details, as she concluded that it wasnt her business to meddle in. When he looked back at her with an apologetic look, she tried to smile a little, just to let him know, that it was okay, but the only expression she had, was just pure concern and she had startet to trip a little with her feet, of just pure nervousness of the outcome of the situation.

It first hit her, that she stood in her white almost see through bralett, when Charles started to undress the girl. She took the clothes from the ground and layed it near the sink, before feeling a hand around her slim arm, pulling her with ease to the side, before she stared right into Charles serious gaze. She looked at him with a surprised but innocent glimt in her doe eyes, before giving a little nod, when he said sorry. " I-Its.. " She stopped herself, when he asked her, if she was okay. She separated her lips slightly, before just ending up giving a nod and then the softly spoken voice came again, with the dominating french accent, making it sounding almost sensuel. " Yes, i´m perfectly okay. What about you Charles, are you okay? ". She looked for a brief moment to the girl, before saying in a low tone of voice. " Will she be okay.. ". She still felt that they should call a doctor, or anyone with medical skill.

A sharp sense of pain could be felt in her heart, when she heard the girl starting to sob again, before Charles told her about her story, why she was like she was and that she had been trying to battle this for years now. " Why is he not here then. Dont he care at all? ". She listened when he said that it had its ups and downs, and that he and a friend had promised to be on some kind of suicide watch for her. Tears started to show in her eyes, before she looked away from Charles. She was happy that Flo had Charles by her side, but something inside of her, felt like it broke. An arranged marriage.. that the girl couldnt get out off, it seemed like. She wanted to tell her, that nobody owned anyone and that she could make her own life, but she didnt know the whole story, but to see somebody in such pain, knowing that only the most pained people in the world, got to such a point.
Sadness turned to anger, before she said in a low tone. " Why isnt he here then.. ". She suddenly heard the footsteps drawing near the bathroom, before a tall slender man appeared before her. When he gave them a nod, she just looked at him with a stern expression. * That must be the fiance *. When he said Flo´s last name, in such a cold tone of voice, it snapped inside of her. She could feel her blood starting to boil and it was just the pure non existence of compassin in his expression and tone, that made her snap.

She could do nothing than just stand in her own world, feeling the darkness around her heart, slowly creeping in, because as much as she was an angel, as much had Lucifer been, before he had fallen from grace too. She heard Charles words and snapped out of her little world of darkness, just for a brief moment, before she heard the strangers tone again, while seeing the dismissing wave of a hand. She felt the tention in the room, before feeling the rough hand of Charles, stained with blood, as her own hands, a faint smell of metal on them both..

She felt when his grab gave in a little, when he pulled his shirt over his head, before handing it to her. She just walked right past him, with a swift motion, she let the back of her hand, gracefully slide through the air, quickly. If he didnt catch her hand or move quickly enough, the siren would feel the back of her hand, directly in contact with his cheek. Tears filling her eyes " How DARE YOU. Do you have NO compassion in that stone cold heart of yours!. Cant you see that she is suffering, and properly BECAUSE OF YOU!. You disgust me, and i dont even know you. And dont you even dare to start making threats against Charles, HE was the one that was here for her, HE is the one you can thank, that she is STILL ALIVE!. Never in my entire life, have i seen such a disgusting display of disrespect. You are in no situation to come in here, and act that way, and i dont give a fucking damn about what you think about me. I´m not Charles girlfriend, infact im a virgin, so you take that fucking information and use it, to tell your sister, whatever the fuck you want, but dont you dare barge in here, acting all high and mighty, because right now, you are the bottom of even the dirtiest slum in the quarter! ".  She just snapped, she couldnt hold back, and she wouldnt.

If Charles hadnt tried to silence her, or the man hadnt, she would just turn around on her heels and walk out the door. How could he even speak to her like that, with such a coldhearted tone, as if nothing had happened, as if he didnt even see all the blood right in front of him, splattered on the ground, on the clothes, on her and Charles. Who did he even think he was!?. She would not let herself scare of him, even if he tried to hit her or show teeth or whatever the hell he even was. She had a feeling that he wasnt human, but demon or vampire or anything else.. she didnt care. He acted nothing like a gentleman, so she would act nothing like a lady in his presense.

When she heard his voice she stopped dead in her tracks. He had taken the slap, and even listened to her, taking all her words in, even when he didnt have to, so of course she was going to do the same. She listened to his words and she could feel a form of sincerety in them. She looked as he let a tear drip down onto the wound, before seing it slowly heale in front of her eyes. * A siren.. *. She had heard of sirens being able to heal with their tears, but never seen it in person. She gave a slight nod, when he finished speaking to her, before saying in a more calm tone of voice. " I will admit. Maybe my observation was wrong about you then, and for that i sincerely apologize to both you and Miss Delaney. It was never my intention to meddle in something that i should not.. goodbye ". Her voice soft spoken again, but still with some strong pressure in it, like she was trying to calm down again, trying to keep her bodys adrenalin rush in check. She turned around, before looking at Charles for a brief moment, when she felt his grasp around her slender arm again. She looked directly into his blue eyes, which was so different from her deep brown, almost black eyes. She gently took the shirt from Charles, before walking out of his grasp, taking on the shirt, while she walked with haste out the door, while trying to get her hair op from under the shirt.

She looked behind her, when she heard footsteps and her gaze fell with an apologetic look on Charles, when he said that he wasnt a bad guy, but also not a good one either. " We all have a good and a bad side. It doesnt matter if you are an angel, demon or what ever you are. I shouldnt have judged him or slapped him, but i just.. i got so angry, and i.. ". She looked at her hands, feeling as if she was spiraling out of control. This was the second time, she had ended up snapping at someone she barely knew, like she knew it all. She sighed before looking down at her feet. She looked a little up, when he said that it was the man that helped convince her into getting into rehab. " I dont know what happened.. im sorry, i just.. ". She slowly sank to her knees before looking at the pavement in front of her. She gently took hold of the shirts end, before looking at it and then at Charles, bathed in the street light, with his tattoos over his body, completely different from her. She smiled a little, before feeling a drop of water on her hand, before looking up and getting a drop on her cheek. " Great.. ". Rain. She got up pretty quickly, before looking a little at Charles. " I´m sorry.. can i follow you home as an apology, and dont worry, i wont be staying ". It wasnt because she didnt like his company, but she felt like she had overstayed her visit, with her words and actions, also.. Charles didnt know her and she didnt know him.

//Udseende af lejligheden kan findes på profilen. Og det er helt okay //

She looked rather surprised, when he suddenly mumbled, that she wasnt taking him home, like it was such a grave thing to suggest. " Oh, sorry.. it wasnt meant like that ". She sent him a most sincere apologetic smile, but still with a gleam in her eyes, telling him that she didnt take his words to heart. She stretched her body a little, with her arms held high and her hands above her head, before looking around a little. She dropped her arms down, when he suddenly asked her, if she had a place to stay, and that he would take her there. " I live in Moonlight Falls.. its pretty long away from here ". She looked at him with a surprised expression, before seeing something in his eyes. * Does he not want to go home? *. She shrugged a little, before shaking her head a little, then giving a soft laugher, when she heard his words. " If you really wanna follow me home, then let me at least invite you to stay the night. I will make Nigel take you home afterwards ". She took her phone up from her pocket, before slowly starting to walk away from the house. If he wanted to stay, he could do that, or he could follow her to the end of the street and stay overnight at her place. " Bonjour Nigel, could you pick me and my friend up, at street ' xxxxx '. Yes thank you Nigel, see you soon ". She hang up, before looking over her shoulder, to see if Charles had followed her.

A white Rolls Royce Wraith came rolling up to them, not too long after she had made the call, before stopping at her side. A pale man, with black hair and beard to match, opened the front drivers door, before walking around the side, opening the front passenger door for Alouette, and then the door for Charles " Bonjour Miss Étienne and Sir ". She looked shortly at Charles before saying " His name is Charles ". Nigel gave a slight bow, before saying " Sir Charles ". She gently let her hand rest on the doors side, before looking at him. " No turning back now ". She meant, if he decided to follow her home. She lived near the ocean, so there was no busses or anything other than a cap he could take, or walk if he wanted to do that. Nigel couldnt stop looking at them both, but he didnt say anything and didnt ask any questions, it wasnt his job to do so. If he got in, she would get inside the car, before Nigel would close the car doors for them, before walking back. The car was rather new, even if the model was old. It was big and spacious and soft piano music was playing from the radio but rather softly.

" Where to?, Miss Étienne ". She looked behind in the rear mirror. If Charles didnt wanna come with them, then she would just say goodbye from where they were." Home " Nigel started to drive from the street before heading to Moonlight Falls, near the ocean to the expensive houses at Glass Road Street. She looked out the window a little, before looking down at her blood stained hands. When they finally got there, Nigel went around to open the door for Alouette, and also Charles if he was with her. She said farwell to Nigel, before heading to her door. The house was white and with two sections. She got her keys, put them in the keyhole and opened the door, before flicking on the light inside of the hallway. Her home was big and bright. Down the hallway to the right, he would find the bathroom and her bedroom, and to the left the livingroom and kitchen. Upstairs he would find her office and a terrase, and also her paintings and paint brushes and some study books. There was also pictures of her mother and father in the hallway, and in the living room, small but visible. There was also a memorial picture and a letter, and also an alarm buttom, to the police, if anyone should break in, something only people on the run from a murderer or stalkers, had in their homes. " Home sweet home ". She walked over to the kitchen, didnt care if she had the dried out blood on her arms, before opening the fridge and starting to find some fruits, and some vegtable with rice bowl. She also had meat, that wasnt made, inside her fridge, but marinated in garlic and other spices.
