CobaltsDream 0 Posted March 24, 2014 #201 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Beatha felt the bed move and looked over, seeing Yon lay down beside her. She nodded silently and hesitated for a moment before crawling over to him. She wrapped her arms around his midsection and laid her head on his chest. She sighed quietly and let her eyes close, knowing she probably wouldn’t sleep for a while. Link to post Share on other sites
Garou 0 Posted March 24, 2014 Author #202 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Yon made a goofy oof sound when she put her head on his chest, moving his arms from behind his own head and clinging to the covers like a cornered beast. "Um... Beatha... You're awfully close..." The boy began squirming comedically as he struggled to get more relaxed but not shrug his friend off of him. Link to post Share on other sites
CobaltsDream 0 Posted March 24, 2014 #203 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Beatha paused and forgot that he may have not been used to this and pulled back from him, biting her lips lightly and just simply laid next to him. “I… I’m sorry…†She muttered quietly, it’s been a long time since she’s had any physical contact like this. She let her head rest on the bed, not exactly making eye contact with Yon. Link to post Share on other sites
Garou 0 Posted March 24, 2014 Author #204 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 The (currently un-)Chained Werewolf could sense the girl's dissatisfaction. He pulled her back to him softly and began to speak. "It's okay, it feels nice. What did you mean by you not liking to sleep alone? Did your brother cuddle against you at night or something?" He chuckled, but the suggestion weirded him out a bit. Link to post Share on other sites
CobaltsDream 0 Posted March 24, 2014 #205 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Beatha jumped slightly when she was pulled back against him. She relaxed against him with her head on his chest. She closed her eyes slowly and nodded. “Sometimes he would…†Link to post Share on other sites
Garou 0 Posted March 24, 2014 Author #206 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Yon looked down at her awkwardly. He was unsure what to say to her, not knowing the Scottish culture very much. "So... were you two intimate or something...?" He asked with a slight hint of fear for speaking out of place. Link to post Share on other sites
CobaltsDream 0 Posted March 25, 2014 #207 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 Beatha shook her head lightly, “No… It’s just…†She fell silent for a moment and stared down at his shirt, kind of messing with it with her fingers gently. “I just… had nightmares a lot…†Link to post Share on other sites
Garou 0 Posted March 25, 2014 Author #208 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 He frowned lightly and looked at her face again. "Ahhhhh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to strike a touchy subject." He pulled her a bit closer, despite his nervous disposition. "I'm... sorry..." Yon began stroking her hair softly, hoping she would start feeling more comfortable in Sword Art Online.

CobaltsDream 0 Posted March 25, 2014 #209 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 “It’s not your fault…†She murmured quietly and felt him pull her closer, causing her to relax more against him. “It couldn’t be avoided anyway…†She sighed softly and shivered when he began to stroke her hair. It calmed her, it’s like he already knew what to do to make her content. At least for now. Link to post Share on other sites
Garou 0 Posted March 25, 2014 Author #210 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 Yon wore a more neutral expression on his face, less sadness but not exactly happiness. He hugged Beatha tightly and yawned, stretching his legs outwards. "Well, right now you're with me, Beatha. Let's discuss more happy things. We need to get to know each other better so we can really connect as friends. What would you like to talk about?" The boy still lightly held her in his arms, two bars of security than kept the horrors of the outside world away. Link to post Share on other sites
CobaltsDream 0 Posted March 25, 2014 #211 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 “Uh…†She bit her lip and opened her eyes to look up at him and then back down at his chest. “I don’t know…†She bit her lip, trying to figure out what they haven’t exactly talked about. “Well… What do you want to know about me?†Link to post Share on other sites
Garou 0 Posted March 25, 2014 Author #212 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 The gentle lad scrunched his facial features in thought, searching for the right questions about the real world. "So... Do you have any plans when you get out of school?" Yon moved his hands to her right wrist and squeezed lightly, letting her know that he was eager to know. Even if they weren't making real physical contact, it was real enough for them. Link to post Share on other sites
CobaltsDream 0 Posted March 25, 2014 #213 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 Beatha thought for a moment. She wasn’t exactly sure what she was going to do when she graduated from highschool. She never thought about it before. “I don’t know… What about you?†She looked up at him and draped her arm farther over his chest. Link to post Share on other sites
Garou 0 Posted March 25, 2014 Author #214 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 He hadn't really thought about the direct next step after high school, but he knew what he wanted to do. "I plan to go into meteorology. I'm really into the weather, and I love the rain. I think snow is gorgeous, personally. Maybe even better than just its liquid form..." He poked her nose a couple of times for fun. Link to post Share on other sites
CobaltsDream 0 Posted March 25, 2014 #215 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 She chuckled softly when he poked her nose a few times. “I wish I knew what I wanted to do.†She muttered and let her eyes close again. “I know I miss my horse back in Scotland… Maybe I could do something with them.†She sighed softly, yawning lightly.

Garou 0 Posted March 25, 2014 Author #216 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 "Ahhhhhhh..." he replied meekly. Horses. It had to be horses. He heard stories about horse girls, and they're strange attachments. Yon took a deep, shaky breath as he tried to calm himself down, doing his best to see past her flaw.

CobaltsDream 0 Posted March 25, 2014 #217 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 Beatha sighed and gave a soft shrug, “I doubt it though… I don’t think I can afford to go back to Scotland.†She muttered a bit sadly. She missed her horse. He meant a lot to her. “If not that… then I don’t know what I’ll do.†Link to post Share on other sites
Garou 0 Posted March 25, 2014 Author #218 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 Yon immediately started feeling bad. He seemed to slowly be losing himself within the game, losing his spirit, his will, his drive to go on. But now that he had found Beatha, he had been given purpose once more. And now he was berating her? Even if it was just in his head, he recognized it as a destructive force. Yon let the hurtful thoughts drift out of his head until he could focus on his friend's needs again. "I'm sorry. If we don't make it out of this game, then you won't even have the chance." He caressed her cheek and felt his eyes water ever so slightly. "But don't worry... You're already on your way home..." Link to post Share on other sites
CobaltsDream 0 Posted March 25, 2014 #219 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 She looked up at him and saw the faint watering of his eyes. She managed to smile back at him and gave a light nod. “I guess you’re right.†She sighed softly and let her eyes close again. “I look forward to getting out of this… with you.†She spoke truthfully. Beatha enjoyed being around Yon. She felt different around him, she could trust him. Link to post Share on other sites
Garou 0 Posted March 27, 2014 Author #220 Report Share Posted March 27, 2014 He nodded. "I hope I can stay here for you, but along the the far road of nobility, sacrifices must be made. Perhaps I will be one of the heroes who give their lives for the cause of freedom..." Yon looked away with a minor sadness, but turned back to smile at her again. He slowly pulled away from her and placed both arms behind the back of his head again. He waited for her to speak again, too tired to continue the conversation on his own terms.
