[CrimsonMoon]

" But you still get thirsty, don't you?" She asks softly, entering the kitchen and pausing, breathing in the yeasty scent of bread before pausing next to a bowl of water, filling up a small cup and holding it out to him," Have some.. Please?" She smiles and blinks suddenly as a red scarf falls from where she had tucked inside her dress. His red Scarf from all those nights ago.

[mationix]

"Like I said, I don't need your hospitality," he muttered, hesitantly following after her. He leaned against the wall, closing his eyes, wondering how on earth he had gotten wrapped up in all of this. Freaking princess and that stupid Lady...I could be on a boat right now, enjoying myself, instead of inside this retched place, he thought to himself glumly. Elizah's eyes opened at her voice, letting out a sigh. "Listen you, I told you I do-" His eyes snapped down to the red scarf, his throat tightening and his rigid exterior stuttering. Dammit...not now. "Where'd you get that?" He managed to demand, pointing down at his scarf. "Doesn't look like something you'd keep under your dress," he continued, playing dumb.

[CrimsonMoon]

She glances at the scarf and immediately her cheeks flame," Oh uhm... The Mistress said She found it around my uhm... Whatever, before I woke up," She looks away, pushing the cup into his hand and turning away again to fill another.

[mationix]

The exterior hardened almost immediately, he felt his heart wrench -she had forgotten everything, nothing had evaded her amnesia and that's what really hurt. "Seems silly really," he commented, not knowing what he found silly -the situation, perhaps?-, "but whatever, doesn't concern me."

[CrimsonMoon]

She smiles weakly,"... i feel like I've been hurting you since I spoke to you," She murmurs and sighs, leaning against the counter and drinking slowly

[mationix]

He set his cup down, completely done with this conversation. "Well done, you get a gold star for sensing evident things." It was as if his mouth was millions of miles away from his mind and when his mind caught up to what he was saying, he pinched the bridge of his nose. "Just...listen, stay away from me. It'll be better for the both of us," he muttered, before heading out of the kitchen.

[CrimsonMoon]

Her eyes begin to water and she sniffs, not sure why she felt like her heart was shattering. She blinks and looks away, her shoulders quivering,"... It's not my fault..." She whimpers softly... At least, she felt it wasn't her fault

[mationix]

"Ain't that the understatement of the century," he muttered, before heading back to his room. The small part of him that still believed this could work out was berating him for being so harsh on her -it really wasn't her fault that she got amnesia. Though it was too easy to point fingers at people.

[CrimsonMoon]

She finishes the water and waits until his footsteps fade, only then did she allow any tears to fall

-TIME . SKIP-

The next morning, something soft gently shook his shoulder," Elizah..?"

[mationix]

He grunted, rolling over on his side, his eyebrows pinching together. "Five more minutes," he murmured, slowly settling back down into his slumber.

[CrimsonMoon]

the bed tilts a bit as the hand rests on his shoulders," Uhm... I had a dream last night... Why were you made at me? That night when those two boys were with us? Why did I have those weird wings?"

[mationix]

He muttered unintelligibly under his breath, shifting where he lay. "Mm...? Boys...wings... You're a monster, my old...old boss wanted to use you," he murmured, drifting in and out of his sleep. "We...we wanted to run away from- from him, so he couldn't...couldn't hurt us."

[CrimsonMoon]

She shudders slightly, a monster... Such an ugly word but it felt... Correct. Eva gently brushes his hair from his face," Thank you... I'm glad I know it happened now," She stands again, preparing to leave

[mationix]

"Mm...yeah, yeah, sure," he said, pulling the covers over himself. "No-no need to be so sad about it," he continued, his words stuttering as a large yawn escaped his mouth, "one..one of the reason's I fell in love with you..."

[CrimsonMoon]

She sniffs and smiles, wiping her eyes," You feel in love with a monster because it was a monster?" She says in a quavering voice unable to stop her quivering lips from smiling," Yo-you're perfect... I-idiot," she leans over and carefully kisses his forehead, maybe those ither dreams... Werent a lie either, like the Lady had said

[mationix]

Another string of unintelligibly words muttered under his breath, as he let out a soft sigh. "Sure,sure...," he murmured, twitching as she kissed his forehead. He waved his hand, before he continued, "that's...me the 'idiot'." In this state, his mind was turned off, not worried about anything that he said -completely unfiltered, well...maybe a more unfiltered, and everything he said was locked away in the deepest part of his mind, nothing but the truth.

[CrimsonMoon]

She smiles and exits the room, almost running into the Lady," O-oh i'm sorry ma'am, I-"

The Lady silences her quickly," I need the Princess's blood as soon as possible, my beautiful skin is getting a horrible rash from the peasants' blood."

" She's just a child," Eva whimpers softly

" And what of yours?"

[mationix]

Somewhere deep inside his sleeping mind, a small piece was crying out about someone being in trouble. Jolting awake, Elizah rubbed his eyes with the back of his hand. "Nn...what time is it?" He muttered to himself, sleepily glancing over at the window. It looked way too early to be up. Grumbling, under his breath, he swung his legs out from his bed and half-stumbled half-shuffled out the door. Groaning and blinking from the bright lights, he covered a yawn, before blinking his eyes rapidly. "Oh...Eva.....Lady?" He asked, blinking into the glare of the candle light, "mm...somethin' wrong?"

[CrimsonMoon]

Eva had her back pressed to the wall, looking like a frightened rabbit she quickly moves away and disappears.

The Lady looks at him and smiles that sickly sweet smile," Nothing is wrong, Dear Elizah..."

[mationix]

He grumbled, before slowly shuffling towards the kitchen. "If you say so, I'm off to get a drink of water," he muttered, giving a half-hearted wave.
