His head swiveled around, big amber eyes taking in the new surroundings like an exited child. He could heel himself tingling with happiness and excitement, and as his eyes met the grand throne room, he gasped in awe. This was far better than the blurred, muddy memories he had retained from his childhood home, made of polished mahogany and threads of soft silver. Here, vines climbed up the walls, bright flowers sprouting from the greenery. It was beautiful... It was just then when he realized his mouth was hanging open.
Close it, honey, you'll catch flies... his mother had jokingly said.
He turned to Emaera, looking into her glowing emerald eyes and smiling.
"So, do I get to meet your parents?" He said teasingly. He was elated, which was a strange thing for him- he was giddy with anticipation, and it was a good thing he had such a good hold on his emotions, otherwise he's be running around screaming like, again, an exited little child. The throne room alone was just so big... He was overwhelmed by it, and his heart was beating faster like it had been earlier in the forest with Emaera. That could be part of it now- when he was around her, he didn't feel like himself, but that was just fine with him.

She should have been overjoyed, absolutely ecstatic to have him there with her...but she wasn't. Emaera was too deeply lost in thought about a long lost love, Kenji...she shuddered visibly, her eyes glazed with painful memories. Just thinking the name made her wince and her heart throb.
The last time she had walked into the Great Hall to the Throne Room--normally she used the elite entrances--she had been with him. At that moment she could almost see him again, his golden hair falling over those brilliant azure eyes, concern for her portrayed on his handsome features. His hands, so strong, and yet so gentle, on her shoulders...
"So, do I get to meet your parents?" The beautiful princess looked up, startled, as she was pulled from the onslaught of memories by Del's question. She looked into his golden eyes, forcing herself to push the past to the back of her mind, if only for now.
"My father is on a trip to a nearby village...he'll be home tomorrow, I believe. My mother isn't well right now, and anyone can only guess at where my sister is. Right now it's best if I just showed you to my quarters. You can stay in one of the guest rooms." Emaera explained, an apologetic smile gracing her lips.
"Emaera..." he had said, pulling her close. She had closed her eyes, feeling his hands run through her hair. "It doesn't matter what your parents think of me. I love y-"
She bit back a sob, turning away as she clamped one hand over her mouth. Forcing down the tears, she tried to push away the memories of him, of the things he said...
"I'm sorry," she choked out. "I just...sorry...bad memories..."

Bad memories. That brought back some "interesting" memories.
"Make me one of you. I don't care if I'm a creature of the night. I just want to be with you." She said- oh, Leah. Those beautiful chestnut eyes, curly dark brown hair, pale skin... oh, Leah.
"Do you trust me?" He asked.
"Always," She said, her hands clasping his. "Oh, please Del, I'm dying anyway. Now we'll be together... forever." He pressed his fangs into her neck, draining her of her life's essence, until she lay limp in his arms.
"No. No! LEAH!" He cried.
Frozen in his living nightmare, he shook his headas if he could erase the whole incident like it had never happened.
Oh, if only.
"It'll be fine. It can only rain for so long. The pain has to fade sometime." He whispered, tying to tell that to himself as well as her.
[b]"I can't wait to meet you parents though... hopefully they'll like me."[b] He said, struggling to takre his mind off the pain- both in Leah and Emaera's eyes.
ooc// sorry it took so longgggg!

OOC: No problem And lol, you so took that "it can only rain for so long"!!!! lmao
Em forced a smile, wrenching herself from the misery of her past. How could she mope so selfishly when he was here, especially when she had a feeling it would make him sad as well? The beautiful princess shook her head, furious at herself, and ran one slender hair through her shimmering ebonite curls. "Of course they will." she said, making sure to shove every ounce of sadness or fear out of her voice and attempting to sound lighthearted. "Mother loves my friends, and Daddy...well, Daddy's nice. I think you'll like him."
I hope you two get along, she thought, watching him and waiting for his reaction, hoping to see him pull out of the misery as well. There would be time for tears later. Her father could be somewhat over-protective...

Ooc// I did not!! How can you accuse me of something like tha- oh wait, yes, yes I did ^.^ I won't be able to reply to anything over the weekend, it's my uncles wedding 
She ran a slender hand through her dark hair. She looked nervous, though. She might have calm words but her obvious anxiety shone through. He was biting his lip- why, he didn't know. If her parents were welcoming, what did he have to worry about?
"Great!" His own nervousness was probably obvious in his voice. Whatever. He's not an actor.
He couldn't get the look, that last look that Leah gave him as she died, as he looked into those two sparkiling chestnut eyes as the light died out. Like a guttered candle... he thought, shivering.
No. That might bring up Emeara's bad memory. Think of something else. Anything else. Um... Finding meaning in pop lyrics! That should occupy much of my time... He thought, keeping his mind far far away from Leah, locked her up in a vault inside his mind. He didn't want to think about that awful night.
Emaera was here now.

"Follow me." she said, smiling. Once again, Emaera had regained control and let the mask of happiness fall into place. It was so simple now; pretending to be someone else for a while. So easy. So painful.
She led him down the long, elegant corridors, the intricate designs on each tile and up the walls captivating. The princess had, on more than one occassion, stopped to look at them and ended up being enchanted for hours by the sheer beauty of it all.
Finally, they came to her room. Real roses climbed the door, the thorns around the knob withdrawing to allow her to enter. She murmured a soft word in her native tongue as she passed through the door, ensuring that he would be able to come and go as he pleased. They were now in front room, the one that joined the rest of her quarters. Everything was light beige with vases of red roses placed just right about the room. Everything seemed to glow gold, giving the room a warm, happy atmosphere.
"There's a bell just over there by the crystal vase. If you ever need something I wouldn't be able to get, ring it and a servent will see to it. The master bedroom, my room, is just through that door. Other than this, there are three guest chambers and one master bathroom that's connected from each room. You can choose which room you like."
She turned to look at him, still smiling.

His heart twisted for reasons he didn't quite understand. Empathy, maybe, or just pain. Stupid emotions; they always seemed to surface right when ypu didn't need them.
His eyes swept over the floors and walls, familliarizing himself with the beautiful intricute designs. They were captivating, but she walked with a brisk pace and he wasn't about to be left behind. He picked up the pace a little bit. Though he was muscular, he wasn't the most athletic dude in the history of Mitya.
"I envey you for living in this beautiful palace." He grinned with a wry smile. He wasn't trying to suck up; it was true. Real roses climbed the door, thorns covering the doorknob. It shrank from her fingers.
Cool. He thought.
"There's a bell just over there by the crystal vase. If you ever need something I wouldn't be able to get, ring it and a servent will see to it. The master bedroom, my room, is just through that door. Other than this, there are three guest chambers and one master bathroom that's connected from each room. You can choose which room you like." She said.
Wow. Servants. He was used to being ordered around by servants, not ordering them around. Sweetness. He strolled into a room overlooking the hills. Hills were cool. Something to draw, something to watch at sunset, the sky bleeding colors from the orange ball being swallowed up by the mounds of earth, only to emerge the next morning, as if it was a belated murmur saying "Don't worry, everything will be alright, the darkness is gone, the sky blue. Don't worry."
Though those words would always be a lie. Like when he said "I'm okay" whenever someone asked him if he was fine, and though they would never guess the intensity of his pain they walked away, thinking they had done good.
He shook himself out of his mental reverie, and smiled at Emaera. Step into someone else's shoes... be anyone but your miserable self. He thought, his heart twisting with agony. Instead, he just smiled.
"Thank you so much." He said, trying to form the words over the lump that had formed in his throat.
((OOC: Sorry, I'm miserable, so Del is too. Hope you don't mind...  ))
